  1. Yes. You should come up. Good times.
  2. So my younger daughter just finished her first season of club volleyball. Some genius at the Northern California Volleyball Association books a tournament at the San Jose Convention Center each season concurrently with Furrycon. I guess it must be the cheapest weekend you can book the venue since most others wouldn’t want to be exposed to it. Having a bunch of teen and pre-teen girls intentionally intermingling with furries makes sense in some world. This year we were PM wave for the tournament on the first day. I was texting with a friend whose kid was playing AM wave and he was talking about how freaky Furrycon was. I laughed it off because it’s so absurd. But when we got there in the afternoon I understood what he meant. It’s somehow funny in theory, but when there are enough of those weird sweaty nerds in one place to easily overpower and kill you it becomes less entertaining. My kid needed to find a bathroom when we left that first night at 11pm (fucking volleyball tournament scheduling). It gets creepier at night when they’re making “night clubs” in the halls and they’re at the point where they’re removing their heads and just loitering around.
  3. Jeez. It looks like one of those highlight tapes that’s been sped up in post but everyone else is still going 1x speed.
  4. I think what we need is some sort of still photography version of The Volume. A huge video wall with side walls and a ceiling. Give the recruits the choice of what amazing background they want their visit photo to be. For Photograph it's infinitely easier since it doesn't have to camera track or even animate.
  5. Fun fact, kiddo was doing a camp today and one of the guest coaches was Bella Bergmark. Unfortunately today was the only day of the camp that I didn’t drive them.
  6. I like that he has normal hair.
  7. Or they were all otherwise occupied at the moment.
  8. Those are going to be some taaaaallll kids.
  9. So would you guys recommend the “classic” environment at Gregory or the new experience at Moody? She has only been to a couple NCAA games at Stanford (vs. Texas) and a couple at St. Mary’s in the town where we live and maybe a game at Cal she might have gone with a friend.
  10. I want to bring my family (and my younger daughter who played her first year of club) to a combo FB and VB weekend. I know Moody would be a unique experience but I’m wondering if Gregory might be worth it for more of the regular home scene. We have been to a couple of the Stanford games here at PA but I’d love to do a combo weekend. I need her to get hyped on Texas volleyball because right now her favorite player is *gasp* Harper Murray despite me telling her the awesomeness of Maddie Skinner. She asked to watch a Nebraska game on YouTube the other day and you can guess which game I chose to play. Haha.
  11. Even that doesn’t really make sense. They can’t just “take back” their contract with him. If they want to be rid of him they’ll have to buy him out like normal. Or are they expecting him to resign without his severance because he underperformed like some of those idiots suggested Jimbo was going to do out of the goodness of his heart and Aggy Honor.
  12. Yeah. What can I say? I screwed up by living off Riverside immediately in the Freshman year. I lived with my brother but an 18-year-old kid needing a 45-minute bus ride to get to a random assortment of 8am classes was never going to work out well. I just flailed around for the first couple years and went on SchoPro twice. I was just happy to still be in school and not getting beaten with wooden cooking spoons for failing out.
  13. California Bar Exam is evidently no joke at all.
  14. Haha. It’s actually references the least Asian thing ever. I left UT without my degree missing only the Freshman History and Government requirements on my course catalog. So when I signed up for Hornfans I figured I was a Texas Ex minus 6 hours. The career I had didn’t really require a degree so I just didn’t bother. I did end up finishing and graduating 17 years later after I had my first kid. Just to set a good example. So I’m class of 2010 but entered college in 1988. Reading textbooks and writing essays when you’re about to turn 40 sucks.
  15. Motherfucker. I'm Asian and many times I wished I didn't care about sports as much as I do. I'm also the loudest parent at all my daughter's 13U Volleyball tournaments these days. It's a running joke on the team because I'm also the team videographer. So you can imagine the game tapes need a high-volume warning.
  16. I’d imagine a young man could have quite a time going to SMU with $2.5mm in his pocket every year.
  17. Is this like Horns Down for Aggies?
  18. I had a semester in 1992 where my books cost more than my tuition for 17 hours.
  19. Haha. Well, my Freshman Orientation was 1988. That line's been around a long time.
  20. That was the quote they gave us during Fteshman orientation day one.
  21. Is this his highlight reel from 1990? The video quality here is worse than my kid’s 13U Volleyball team.
  22. Maybe the real athletic directing is the coaches we’ve alienated along the way.
  23. So there’s not enough people to murder anymore? The concentration of murderers must be Dead Sea salt levels high by now.
  24. Can’t wait for Arch to be in the paddock with Verstappen during Austin F1 and the Aggies losing their shit over the coverage.
