  1. Nobody cares how early you wake up in the morning.
  2. Gambon was an amazing Dumbledore. By comparison, Richard Harris’ was 2-dimensional.
  3. Think the way to go for OG Fleming adaptations is a series - “Young Bond”
  4. Your hand will recover
  5. We need to sack the fuck up and enjoy Carly Rae Jepsen?
  6. We havent played one decent offense, let alone a decent passing team with dual threat QB. There could be some WTF moments. Hopefully our own offense plays well because this could be a wake up call.
  7. Missing hellish Kansas game for [checks notes] even more hellish outdoor wedding at 5pm wearing a monkey suit
  8. He’s a slot receiver in the NFL and on the right team can go multiple. Perhaps Worthy is rope a doping and making business decisions, but his ball skills remind me of James Kirkendoll. What is Worthy’s catch/target rate? It doesnt seem good. The next circus catch with a DB jacking him up will be his first. And he drops gimmes and struggles with the ball. I think he does have great quickness, enough toughness, and route running to stick in the NFL. And he can house it at anytime. But so can that Baylor player running 23mphs. But he’s not in the same league as 3rd round pick Devin Duvernay, who supposedly didnt drop a pass final season here*. I also found Goodwin to be reliable and dangerous. Some simp may draft on potential. And maybe Worthy will be more focused and try harder in the show. And stay healthy. But he’s frustrating to watch. 1st rounder? Sure. He can do a lot when he does catch the ball and nobody’s around him. That doesnt happen as often in the pros. *Michael Huff was doing a profile on Duvernay on LHN. Huff asked what would happen if they squared off now. Duvernay replied instantly “Oh, touchdown.”
  9. 2014 - 22 shows statistically significant data on calls against Texas in Big12 play. Internet fans can and will bitch all the time, but its true and backed up by stats and eyeballs. The perceived corruption, incompetence, and sloth has made the games difficult to watch. Nevertheless, Texas officials cant say shit for multiple reasons.
  10. Goodwin was better than Worthy. Worthy drops too many balls, gives up on routes, and has a small catch radius. In modern game, Worthy can play slot in the NFL and roam around a bit. I dont recall Goodwin having any holes in his game. But he missed Spring ball and so they limited his plays and targets. And our passing game during 2010-12 was atrocious.
  11. Our 2005 receivers and linebackers were pedestrian. And the running backs were not elite except for Jamaal Charles who was gimpy and young. 2001 Miami Hurricanes were loaded, except there’s a huge drop at QB.
  12. This. Tap the brakes on comparing this years to 2004-06 or Muschamp’s 2008-10 squads. Our front 7 is good. Back 4 is average and the experienced guys are have average speed. Provided they play assignment football, we’ll be OK. But if an elite passing team gets us, we’ll be exposed.
  13. Good > Offense > Defense Bad > Special Teams Ugly > Waco
  14. What the 5th time in 5 years? Where’s our chart?
  15. That seemed more usual in the past. Maybe we got a dozen or so non-scoring replays?
  16. I hate the Barney Fife small-town sheriff, massively corrupt, Big 12 officials. Those motherfuckers ruin the game. My expectations are for a massive ass fucking tomorrow in Waco.
  17. Bloated Most people at DKR had to endure that or somehow ignore it And even songs I like I dont like hearing repeatedly
  18. This is an example of why we created antitrust legislation century ago. The streaming model is sometimes rigged to make revenue sharing difficult. The actual value of shows are hidden or impossible to calculate. And because the streaming services produce the content, they are both buyer and seller. Streaming also may not be profitable but it’s perceived as valuable by stock holders and venture capitalists. And they will be perceived as even more valuable if they can decrease their talent costs.
  19. Root of all evil
  20. At 1:12 you’ll see a shake similar. LT and Barry are probably closer due to lower center of gravity. Bijan does not resemble Barry except in cut to acceleration with fluidity. Bijan is a much bigger, more physical back than Barry. Bijan shouldnt be able to move like that at his size. LT and Barry sure seemed to like the spin move. I think that has been coached out a bit, as dudes get planted, including Bijan a couple of times. LT is a better comp to Bijan. I like the Marshall Faulk comp better.
  21. I doubt crowd noise is louder consistently. We diagnosed how the dumbotron sucks the life out due to cranking it to 100dbs up until a few seconds before the snap. Why get loud when the crowdtrack does it for you? Also, with secondary ticket sales so convenient, and alienation of core fanbase, tourists fill the stands in record numbers. And as we know, the overdue move to group students together has made a huge difference. If there’s a crowd boost, its because of that and general alcohol sales.
