  1. Why is the problem assumed to be Milwee and not Sark?

    Getting old sucks

    My urologist had done some urolifts over the years and found it too ineffective too often. When I researched online there were tons of people with failed urolift procedures. Agree that trying drugs first is the best path. Delay more serious treatments if possible.

    Yes this one is interesting too. It is a bizarre procedure but seems to work pretty well for people who have the right BPH profile.

    BPH is not something to ignore. I have two friends that ignored the problem and ended up in an emergency room because they couldn’t pee, and ended up with a catheter shoved up their Johnson for TWO MONTHS until a surgeon could get them in for surgery. There are multiple treatment options for BPH depending upon how serious the symptoms and how the blockage is occurring. TURP is historically the most common treatment but HoLep laser is a new treatment that is getting very positive reviews for multiple reasons. A good urologist will stick a camera up your Johnson to see how the blockage is occurring. There is a chance you could do what’s called a partial TURP, which doesn’t cut away as much material as a full TURP. There potentially wouldn’t be retrograde e in that scenario.This could be a good option. Less material. Less risk. If a full material removal is required and it were me, I would do HoLep first, Aquablation maybe as a second choice, TURP third. Aquablation also has a low chance of retro e. I wouldn’t look at Rezum or other procedures because those haven’t gotten very good reviews. HoLep, TURP, and Aquablation have very low odds of incontinence or ed.
  5. I posted Saturday on the game thread that his warmup throws were the fastest release I’d ever seen. I wasn’t joking. In retrospect I think he was doing some sort of fast release drill. And when you look at his bad throws in the game he had that same rushed look.

    Matt Patricia

    Yes, ESPN supposedly broke down in detail how he changed coverages and scheme post snap. This confused the heck out of Arch and Sark and is why there were receivers running open that he didn’t see. I don’t know much about Patricia but she definitely prepared a very good defensive game plan for Texas.
  7. I’m torn. My wife got shingles and described it as hell. Still has weird symptoms years later. But I never had chickenpox. I’m supposedly a 2%’r. I think my primary care Dr did a blood test to confirm it. He said I don’t need to take the vaccine. Maybe I need to confirm negative titers, to make sure he knew his stuff. I also have severe tinnitus and hearing loss in one ear, so that makes me even more cautious about getting it.
  8. I hear what you’re saying but when a coach is only a year or two into their tenure, they always get a bit of a break. There definitely was concern, but people were still thinking he just needed time to get his own players, culture, etc. Now, he has that.
  9. Thru all the tough games, the one thing that drives me insane more than any other issue is the inability of Sark teams to line up on 4th down and get 1-2 yards. It’s cost us multiple games, but more importantly it hints at a stubbornness, a lack of toughness, and a lack of intelligence to still not be able to fix the problem after several years of this.
  10. I always think a little differently the day after a loss. The day of a loss I’m too emotionally attached to it. So with a day to process what we saw yesterday, I honestly believe none of us understand the situation we face. It could be that Manning is way over-rated. Or not. It could be Sark’s ceiling. Or not. It could just be a bad game. Or not. It could be a team of over-rated players. Or not. It’s impossible to tell what’s really going on right now because it’s so baffling. Just like the Ewers era was baffling. What I do know is that for the first time in the Sark era there is a question about whether he’s capable of long-term success. Nine months ago that would have been a crazy proposition. But when you have two number 1 generational talent QB’s look as bad as they have, it raises questions. Sark better get this shit under control at the QB position or the reputation and goodwill he’s built up over many years as a QB whisperer will flush down the drain. That would be bad.
  11. AJ was an important piece of Manning coming to Texas. I don’t know whether he’s key now or not.
  12. Embarrassed about passing out under the quesadilla bar?
  13. Last year you could tell from Arch’s limited appearances he really wasn’t ready to be the #1 QB. Despite playing reasonably well, you could see his limitations. Today’s poor performance was shocking. Not only was it not better, it was substantially worse than last year. As a result, it really isn’t unreasonable to make the argument that Quinn might have played much better and might have pulled out a win. But since that could never happen, why revisit history?
  14. I misread this at first as “he rolled a dube (aka doobie)…”
  15. Oh no, he’s lost control and is threatening people. I wonder if he soiled his diaper.
  16. Little does he realize he just create a gif/meme of himself for eternity.
  17. Oh no, he’s turned to insults to try and deal with his insecurities.
  18. Uh oh, I triggered the sensitive little baby boomer.
  19. If you think Sark’s game plan today was acceptable, you are delusional. If you thought Arch wasn’t terrible today, you are delusional. Was Arch bad because of Arch, or because of Sark? That is the question. Quinn is in the NFL. That either means Sark developed him so well he made the NFL, or so misused him at Texas he didn’t perform that great at Texas. These are the questions we ponder.
  20. Guy I played golf with was a Dominos manager, managed to have two failing stores sold to him for nothing because Dominos was struggling at the time, and just sold them for $10M. Nice story for a “blue collar” guy.
  21. I don’t have a problem with any of his decisions to go for it on fourth down. I have an issue with every single call he made going for it on fourth down.
  22. This is my fear. Sark is a great guy who’s very well liked and has some really good capabilities, but he just may not be smart enough or ruthless enough to get to the promised land. I hope he can.
  23. I only have two concerns, but they are both big. 1) Can Sark create and execute an effective offensive game plan against a top ~5-8 team with a good coach? 2) Can Arch Manning quit looking like ass in three weeks? The first is an issue we’ve all been aware of now for going on three seasons. The Arch concern today was a massive new shock.
  24. Go RLI direct on their website. They are the best in the business for umbrella.
