Yeah, but props to him and guys like Hutson and Travis Shaw for playing in the bowl game instead of bailing to work on their 40 time or whatever.

Anyone penciling in poor Lance in the rotation must have been in a coma since 2021.- 2025 - 2026 Astros Offseason Thread
I would think Imani just signed for Verlander’s money…- 2025 - 2026 Astros Offseason Thread
Love it, this was the #1 free agent signing I was hoping for. We need to add talent that doesn’t involve taking a hit elsewhere, either on the roster or in prospects.- Local charities you endorse
We've been fortunate in 2025, but also a little miserly with our giving. Anyone want to recommend a charity that they're excited about this year? Historically, most of our money goes to UT scholarship fund (not thrilled with more this year), MD Anderson/misc cancer groups, Capital Area Food Bank, Human Rights Campaign (also annoyed with them for a huge volume of text solicitations), and the Trail Foundation/Conservancy.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
Not just them. There's some expensive 2nd and 3rd string players that are more on the development conveyor belt but had to be paid like starters as recruits. Theoretically, agent representation should instill some discipline and professionalism to a negotiation, but not when the agent's experience is wholly comprised by watching all eight seasons of Entourage.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
This is the kind of guy who saw EJ Holland’s sneaker collection and figured that was the good life.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
I think it's pretty clear that agency is comprised of a bunch of kids. Their most credible and experienced, for example.. seems about as buttoned up as this guy.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
Welcome to adulthood, Tre Wisner. Your two posts describe the dominant sentiment felt by grown-ups in the labor market.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
I knew Ricky Williams a little bit in college and he's obviously thoughtful, reasonably intelligent, and more importantly, curious (you get this in interviews and when he does tv). That said, we're talking about someone who hired Master P to his agent and signed an atrocious first contract when most of his peers were signing "set for life" money in their rookie deals. 21 year old football players making dumb decisions (particularly with money) is pretty par for the course.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
You need to take another look at Atkinson’s high school measurements because he’s not bigger than Smith and that’s presuming he’s being measured accurately.- New Site Software / Theme

@immamac is there a way to make the font more legible? I don’t think it’s purely a size issue, but I’m having more difficulty reading on a mobile than the old version.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
I guess injury concerns weigh into this, but I'd like the 20 carries Wisner might get in the bowl game would be useful for advertising myself going into the portal. Presumably he's saying "I'll rest on my performance in the A&M game".- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Please Make It Stop
You bring up a good point, which is that Niblett probably approximates Wisner's output for 75% of the plays we run with him as the featured back. He's probably less effective on inside zone and power but fine for most everything else that just requires him to find space. No idea on his blocking, that's more than likely a down-grade.- The Lost Generation essay
You’re quite welcome to ignore it or try to make it better, kemosabe.- Bourbon
I wouldn’t even consider at those prices, personally.- Texas Basketball 2025-26: It’s Miller Time
I think basketball schedules are generally more flexible than football, but presumably the schedule is mostly set a year or two our and Beard’s preference for racking up wins against lower level completion was introduced during his tenure and continued by Terry.- The Lost Generation essay
I would think the candidates running in 2026 have gotten the message and we‘ll see the election as a laboratory on what messaging seems to work best before 2028. It would also seem to me that the predominant sentiment here is “why are you even arguing about middle vs working class conflicts when the elites profit from that discord?” that’s mirroring some of what the primary candidates are exploring. My biggest concern is that the Democrats feel like everything is solved with smart policy and that’s either overly wishful or doesn’t resonate beyond a single election. It’s also one of the things that @Bozo_Casanova has repeated here and on other threads-we don’t have a great solution for the Jacob Savages of the world but it they will clearly vote against us if we paint them as racist asshole incels instead of admitting “yeah, you got a raw deal in some respects.”- Texas Basketball 2025-26: It’s Miller Time
Who’s to blame for the schedule? Beard/CDC? I prefer Barnes “steel sharpens steel” approach…- The Lost Generation essay
Hmmmmm…..- The Lost Generation essay
You don't care about them getting fucked and said so, to wit @Brisketexan’s responses over the last few pages read a little like good Smeagal arguing with bad Gollum.- Christopher Nolan's next film, The Odyssey
