  1. They are playing the game on the big TV on the lido deck. I have 15 drinks today before they cut me off. I’m happy!
  2. Yes. rates going up 1/2 a point after the fed lowered half a point is a horror show.
  3. It’s really hard to describe how much dick the SEC sucks and the nonsense that comes with that if you aren’t a mouth breathing moron. I guess we get the benefit now of that but it always has and always will be shit. we are going to run roughshot over this collection of spares and moron.
  4. We are going to fuck Georgia up the ass and wipe our shit covered dicks all over their face dirty sanchez style. The fact that this will come as a complete and utter shock to aggy (who is always wrong) is basically proof it will happen.
  5. Been a brutal beat down ever since the fed cut by 1/2. That… wasn’t what we were looking for.
  6. Texas 45, OU 13. we win this game in a walk, reminiscent of the last time we brought in a focused group of dominant studs that were looking for revenge and they brought in a collection of no talent ass clowns considerably worst than the normal collection of ass clowns they roll with (2005). This game just sets up like that for us to stomp them. Yes, I know, it’s a rivalry game and anything can and will happen, but I’m going to choose not to take counsel of my fears as it relates to this team and enjoy the ride. Prop- rushing yards for both team- graded on closest to spread and if that ties closest to the total. Team that wins this almost always wins the game. Texas 194 yards rushing OU- 78 yards rushing. spread- 116 yards
  7. Florida- Georgia, potato- potahtoe
  8. Bama won a one possession game at home over Georgia then shit the bed and lost to a mediocre (congrats to Vandy from moving from putrid to mediocre) Vandy team the next week. It’s perfectly justifiable to have Bama behind Georgia, though I personally believe neither of them are all that good.
  9. Yeah/ he was stock down for me for sure (along with Blue), but the coaches aren’t bitching and if he falls into some sacks and stats that will obviously be helpful to his case.
  10. I was going to say maybe Ohio state is also really good. Nobody in the SEC, to me, looks at that standard. I have seen a little of Ohio State and thought they might also be really good, but the Kansas State retread QB has me skeptical. I need to see it one time against Oregon and then I will sign off on that.
  11. Some years there are 2 really good teams. Some there are 5. I think this year there is only 1 really good team and it’s us.
  12. Texas v OU. The Red River Shootout. Good v evil. Class v none. Good breeding v inbreeding. Teeth privileged v toothless. 2 proud football programs. One world class institution of higher learning and one glorified community college that exists to service their football team. SEC nonsense aside, this is the game that means more. 12 schools (maybe 13?) officially consider Texas their main rival according to a poll I saw last year. Thankfully, with the move to the SEC we’ve gotten away from the majority of these no win games against second rate schools that represent nothing but potential downside. Texas considers itself to have 3 rivals, but they aren’t all created equally. Arkansas left 30 years ago and we put them on the schedule a handful of times and played them as a curiosity for the olds who wouldn’t stop blathering about royal and Broyals and Fayetnam and cousin loving and blah blah blah. Aggy left and we laughed at them when they lost eternal scoreboard, and decided never to play them again. OU though, OU is special. College football has gone through massive realignment where every school is out for themselves and 2 schools have stood out on deciding they are a package deal, Texas and OU. Both, by any metric top 8 or so programs. The richest and most envied program in America in Texas. Probably the second most accomplished (or 3rd behind Bama and maybe the Domers) in Oklahoma. We have owned them historically. They’ve probably out shined us a bit in the 21st century. But this is a series of runs. Schools rip off 4 in a row or 8 out of 10 and it serves as a spotlight for what the other school needs to do to get better. We’ve been on the bad side of that the last 15 years or so as we’ve wandered the desert. No more. This game is so important because generally the winner is national title quality. When you go on that run when you win 5 in a row or 8 out of 10 you are likely rolling and ready too dominate. Sark has 2 tasks left at Texas after acing most everything leading up to this- flip the script decisively in this series and win a national title. it says here that he will do both those things starting this year. Give em hell give em hell, OU sucks. its 8:19 in the morning and OU sucks. texas doesn’t fall into the gulf because OU sucks. hook em high like an eagle soars. Even dear old Bill in Sinton wouldn’t worry about anyone overlooking this game- it’s the one always circled in red ink.
  13. Alabraska. Clap clap clap clap clap.
  14. Moore. Tre Watson was a long time ago, I suck with names and I am a dumb dumb. Also getting old sucks.
  15. Moore. DE
  16. I'll take that bet if you want to do it. I have 11 as floor and 14 as most likely. I win if the number is above your ceiling (12). You win if the number is below my floor (11). Deal? Also on the 20 I said wild eyed crazy scenario where we win a national title and everyone self actualizes is 20. In no way was that a prediction. THe guys you are giving me shit on are all at the bottom of my list called l"coin flip or less" and the guys you pulled out in Holmes and Conner would definitely be "less" but greater than zero imo. I only predicted 2 from that tier. If I had to guess it would be Gbenda and Guilbeau. Would it shock me if Watson had a stretch where he got 8 sacks in 6 games and decided to go? No. Or Blue get his head out of his ass? Not a surprise either. I have that as 2/7 so what that's saying is 28% odds a guy in that tier gets drafted. You want to say collectively that won't happen with that group of 7 fine. But when you say 9 when there are 8 pretty much locks that means that of the following players you only have 1 getting drafted: Williams, Majors, Broughton, Golden, DJ, Gbenda, Connor, Tre, Blue, Holmes, guilbeau, Bolden. That seems incredibly implausible that that group would go 1 for 12
  17. MBS are down roughly 130 points since that day. We got 50! When the market was only expecting 25! And it's been like eating a plate of shit basically every day since then. Tough stuff.
  18. This report looked less fishy than any previous report I’ve railed against for the past 2 years. birth death was -148,000! Meaning/ this was (likely) actual jobs being in place that are countable and not figments of someone’s imagination. note/ I’m not saying you cannot and should not model for small business creation, I’m saying that the modeling they were using was abysmal, you could always tell it was abysmal, and the real world bore that out. Also stronger component than normal was most of the jobs were full time jobs. That hasn’t been the case lately. strong report.
  19. Not a surprise to me. Was almost set in stone imo after Michigan. I think you have to pretty much chalk up DJ to the draft as well. I am doubtful that he will want to be the only dude coming back on an entire new offensive line. Move him from written in pencil in maybe they could go to, yeah- we suspect they will go. Blue, on the other hand, yikes I had him likely to be top 3 or 4 rounds, he might not be at Texas next year but it won’t be because he’s getting drafted. Doing this list now 35% of the way through the season: Sure things (8): Quinn, Banks, Bond, Helm, Collins, Sorrell, Barron, Makuba highly likely (4): Williams, Majors, Broughton, Golden, DJ, coin flip or less (2): Gbenda, Connor, Tre, Blue, Holmes, guilbeau, Bolden 14 right now. Absolute floor of 11 (barring catastrophic injury to one of the sure things). my prediction- 14. Wild eyed crazy scenario where we win the national title and all those guys self actualize and none of them want to come back- 20. I’m a homer and a honk. Things don’t always work out the way they do on paper- but the over under to get half the action on one side and half on the other has to be right around 12, right?
  20. I saw it. Why am I supposed to give this credence now with their abysmal track record the prior 2 years at getting the data right? ADP (you know- the guys that are boots on the ground sending out checks for small businesses) had small business growth nonexistent this month (something like net +2,000). Lets we how much of this 254k is actually verifiable and how much of it is the BLS licking their finger, sticking it up in the air to gauge the wind, and then assigning a number on the birth death model for small business that might (or might not) bear some sort of connection with reality and actual economic activity in America. Will look at summary of that data and report back here either way.
  21. It will be a sea day in the middle of the ocean. I didn’t think streaming was possible out there (I know internet is fine- but thought they throttled anything that takes a ton of data. what kind of package did you have?
  22. Week 5- Mississippi State @ Texas Game Winner- @EZ$with a prediction of 31-10 (I think this was our biggest error for a winner of the year so far) Prop Bet winner- @Mudcat35who was one of 3 people to get total yards of 523 dead on the number- and had the best game score prediction.
  23. Week 4 ULM @ Texas Game Score- @Wulaw HornI predicted 52-3 and outkicked @Texasborn91by being 7 yards closer on the prop bet Prop Bet- @Fico, our first 2 time winner- congrats!
  24. Week 3-UTSA @ Texas Game Winner- @mvlonghorns with the perfect score of 56-7 Prop bet- Yards passing for Texas @DoobieWah who said 428 and it was 427
  25. Week 2- Texas @ Michigan Game Score: @Ficowho was one of 5 or 6 people to miss by 1 point with a prediction of 31-13 (actual- 31-12). Prop bet- (Michigan Yards receiving) @Dr.Dre was the winner- beating out @Sgt Hulkdue to getting a better game score.
