  1. Of course production per $ has to be considered. Did he deliver the required ROI? Without knowing the numbers I’d guess no. BUT, it wasn’t all his fault. The OL and QB was also an issue. And he should get better. And he’s still a highly highly talented receiver who did have moments of excellence. You don’t run that off, UNLESS the NIL demands are out in left field.
  2. this post is really good.
  3. Come on guys. You look like regards right now.
  4. As an enthusiastic participant in the 2023 initiative, who made it three days before injuring myself on a burpee, I look forward to monitoring everyone’s progress this year.
  5. another name for a full goatee.
  6. Volleyball is a fascinating sport. Points are won by the tiniest sliver. Sets are won often by just a point or two. But then matches are often won 3-0, and the same top teams win almost all the time. However, to get to the championship, there’s always that outlier game, set and/or match. With points being so so close, I would expect team winning percentages like baseball or hockey. And I would expect lot of new names in the final four every year. But it’s just the opposite. Strange sport.
  7. A‘round about never.
  8. I had to listen to a drunk idiotic relative swear that Bill Gates sterilized a million Indians. WTF.
  9. The NIL era raises the importance of fast learning of the playbook/scheme. I wonder if Texas has any special initiatives around that area.
  10. This dude is a total loser.
  11. I'm on the verge of blacking out and going into a blind rage. The wife had put up a strand of 150 christmas lights. Same strand as last year. Worked fine for two days. Suddenly the first 40 bulbs near the plug go out, as does a bunch of bulbs on the end of the strand. The middle lights work, except for a few here and there that aren't lit. As an ex-engineer, I'm trying to process how this is possible. Unable to figure it out, I ChatGPT it. Immediately, it tells me it's either a bulb in the first section, that is also causing the last section to go out because of the way it's wired in sections. Weird. But okay. Fine. The solution is either to replace the fuses or find the one bulb in the section that's causing the problem. I check the fuses on a multimeter and they are fine. So it has to be a bulb. But why is it that some bulbs can be out in one section, but not other sections. Makes no sense whatsoever. So.. despite being annoyed at the nonsense, I decide I'm going to test each bulb in the first section. I spend a half hour trying to find a compatible bulb because of course every strand of lights is a snowflake, with it's own bulb holder shape. I finally find compatible bulbs and start pulling out bulbs to test. On my second bulb, I try to pull and of course the light part of the bulb comes off and the plastic piece won't come out. After five minutes of trying to pry it out, I finally try to insert the new bulb. Of course, it won't go in. The tolerances of the plastic is so bad, some bulbs fit and some don't. I end my adventure by saying fuck it and grab a scotch. The wife brings out two other strands. We plug one in and the first half is off. We plug in the second strand and the second half is the part that isn't lit. WTF? That's impossible. Goddammit, these lights are viloating the laws of physics and I've fucking had it. Fuck China.
  12. The Burke and Vasek experience has taught me that Westlake dads are as dumb as I thought they were when they proclaimed Vasek as the superior college recruit. Watch this one.
  13. My Aggie nieces who played high school volleyball are ecstatic. Good for them. I pulled for Aggie , because eff Nebraska.
  14. Tuned in at 25 25. How much of a lead did Abby blow?
  15. Him?
  16. None of these complainers have ever heard of Juluke. Nor do they know anything about any other RB coach. That’s what makes their complaints so stupid.
  17. The Southlake Desoto game was probably the second best game I’ve ever watched. Behind Plano vs Plano East. It was amazing.
  18. Pretty sure it’s a stuck fetzer valve. You’re going to need some gauze pads and some ball bearings and some 3 in 1 oil.
  19. So I assume he was at LSU for only one year because of Miles getting canned. But why did Kingsbury make a change after only one year?
  20. Whew.
  21. Knock that off or I will organize the fatwa of all fatwas.
  22. Man it must be awesome being a UConn fan. Top coach. Top players. Great logo. Well, at least we have a better logo.
  23. It’s awesome. Free Stars games.
