  1. The game threads are intolerable. There is so much negativity. I see that some of that has leaked over here. It was a basic game against an inferior opponent and was never in doubt. So they didn’t look dominating. It was good enough.
  2. A very talented running back with great vision, decent speed, and nice escapability. And he will never see the field again. He just can’t hold onto the ball.
  3. Arch’s mobility and pocket awareness gives him a huge advantage over Ewers.
  4. Based on that the throw a few plays ago, it seems Arch may have an injured shoulder. He’s still throwing darts, but something’s up. That grimace was not normal.
  5. That was very concerning. It was like his shoulder is hurt.
  6. MVP? Longhorn Hall of Honor?
  7. Spreading sour cream on anything is one of the most annoying things ever. Whatever you use to spread, the sour cream will stick to it like a Velcro super glue fastener.
  8. I’ll just say it again. If they had bunted the runner over to second, instead of hitting into a double play, Altuve’s hit would have scored a run. I don’t believe the analytics these teams are using.
  9. Or some ill-booten gotty.
  10. Sorry about that. I just get so frustrated with the state of our country right now, I have no faith a billionaire will face any real repercussions.
  11. That is the America we live in these days and it’s incredibly frustrating. It will ultimately be the demise of this great experiment. Yes there was. At the turn of the century in the early 1900’s the public got so fed up with the cheating, lying, illegal, and immoral behavior of the super rich that they elected as president Teddy Roosevelt, who reined in the super rich, at least as much is possible, by breaking up monopolies and implementing other policies. He was successful because he had a well informed public that valued integrity behind him. Today, even people with the right integrity can’t make a dent in the corruption because the public is stupid, and doesn’t care.
  12. Yes. What’s interesting is that the 5 yr bond is down to 3.5%, which is below both of the rate cuts planned for sep and nov. so the bond market believes it’s headed lower, faster than the current consensus rate cut predictions.
  13. OP please note this post. A few years ago I had your symptoms and the above is what I ended up having. Despite reading that it was a condition which might not go away, my primary care doctor treated it with some sort of medication and it cleared up right away. It was a terrifying level of pain. Almost unbearable. I went to the doctor after the dentist failed to identify the issue correctly.
  14. This may have been covered already but why no Gibson or Clark appearances? I would have thought Gibson especially. So if he didn’t even get a touch I’m assuming portal in December.
  15. I pay way too much for tv service right now, and am finally cutting services as soon as the regular baseball season ends. However, stealing service isn’t my style, so we will pick up YTTV or Hulu Live. And while the cost of tv service can be a waste, in our case it probably keeps us from going out at least 3 nights a month for dinner, which would cost us $300. So, it’s not quite as wasteful is it first seems.
  16. Jerry jones the owner….. …needs to fire Jerry Jones the manager.
  17. By the way, Saban mentioned he has been walking practices, viewing the team, etc. He already has an office he still uses. That does not sound like a healthy situation to me.
  18. Whew, in catching up on this thread I’m incredibly relieved to learn the only reason we lost was because of the thread title. I feel so much better now.
  19. Great post. I laughed.
  20. Texas 34 SJSU 3 rushing 241
  21. After watching the Astros hit into way too many double plays, killing scoring chances, I’m questioning the analytics of having a hitter hit with no outs and a guy on first base. They need two positive events to have a chance to score a run. If instead you bunt the guy to second, then one hit in two chances (2 outs) scores a run 75-80% of the time. Or have the guy on first steal. I want to see Gus ball by the Astros, especially since they hit into so many dp’s.
  22. So as far as I can tell, 20 years ago I got the first of two chicken pox vaccines, but didn’t get the second shot after I broke out with a few spots. But when the doctor did a blood test I didn’t have the chicken pox marker. So now I’m wondering whether I should just take the chicken pox vaccine again.
  23. That’s the struggle. I love Berlin. It’s a great city to work and hang out. But I agree with you that it’s probably it not critical for this vacation itinerary .
