  1. Why would you eat a cheeseburger at a place that has even moderate Tex Mex?  Does not compute. 

    The best burger I’ve ever had was at a place called Browns Mexican Restaurant in San Antonio. My grandfather made us eat there every time we drove from Houston to Cotulla. Everyone else got the enchiladas with diced onions on top. The burger was better. It’s a great story, and I tell it so well.

  2.  
     

    Ok. Let me clear this up. I experienced VY in high school take the soul of our team and tea-bag it.

    I have also watched Charles Wright do that with a team of absolute scrubs.

    I’m am confident that Charles Wright can manage a UTSA game.

  3. For sure. Grabbed at it and rolled it a few times. Looked like some tape on it when he came back in a few plays later too.

    100%. He’s hurt. After every play he did that swim move motion that my old ass does after throwing a football with my kid.

  4. I just don't understand why people have such a hard time believing that a 62-year-old man who's made his fortune couldn't possibly be interested in a lower stress, lower responsibility role that has great fringe benefits (like living in Austin) for the last few years of his career.
    People do it all the time.

    If the defense really improves this year what are the chances that PK is offered a head coaching job somewhere. Even rice could offer him more than he’s making now. People on this board say he doesn’t like recruiting or isn’t good at it. What are the chances both leave? I don’t know either of their personalities at this point of their lives. That could be a weird scenario.
  5. It's nice to see an American rep us like this but ultimately no one in this country gives a shit about tennis and hasn't since the end of Agassi and the prime of Tiger.

    This is just fucking stupid. People with money care. There’s more money watching this than a bunch of sports on tv.

    Where do you live?  Surely there's a bulk wood supplier somewhere nearby that you could use, rather than buying it bagged from a retailer?

    In NW Austin, I always go to Harley's.  It's just a little lot wedged off of 183 near Anderson Mill.  It's still not exactly cheap but I pay $10 for a small wheelbarrow full, which has more wood than that.

     

     

    Judging by that bag, he's in Katy. 

  7. Don't really know ISDs in that area, but:

    Alief accepts transfers: https://www.aliefisd.net/loe
    Stafford had a window to transfer, maybe you could beg your way in: https://www.staffordmsd.org/become-a-spartan/non-resident-student-transfer
    Spring Branch has a transfer window: https://www.springbranchisd.com/studentsfamilies/choice-program/about-the-transfer-process

    Bottom line is they want the bucks and an empty seat does them no good.

    It would be FBISD to HISD. They are under the impression it can’t be done by a normal transfer.

    The mains times I’ve heard it being a problem is sports.  If the kid ends up being good at anything other coaches will rat.  My dad was a baseball coach and once had a rival coach follow one of his players to his house outside the ISD’s borders and turn him into UIL 

    The only other time I’ve heard of this is due to parents or the student filling out the wrong address on a form.

    I don’t remember any punishment other than making them ineligible for competition.

    Sports will not be an issue with this kid. 

  9. My wife was in a conversation with our lovely, perfect, incredible housekeeper about the issues her youngest is having in middle school. These arent just trivial problems. There are violent issues at this school. By the end of the convo, the housekeeper mentioned that she had asked the last owners of this house for ideas about getting her moved out of their county for middle school and into ours. My wife wants me to look into it. What’s the process of getting this done and what are the punishments if caught for both parties? Can I just have them take over the gas bill and have them show up at a school zoned to my zip? Not interested in judgement. Just interested in the process. Will move to IPIHB if that makes it safer.
