  1. I’d be shocked if it was an FCS team. It will more likely be Rice/UTEP/North Texas etc
  2. Oh come on. He’s the second winningest coach in the history of the University of Texas. He has a national championship. He’s in the college football hall of fame. You’re an aggy who runs a Texas fan site. What do you know about winning?
  3. His actual name is Randal. It seems he went by Randy growing up and his wife is the one who started calling him Rand. https://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2010/06/03/10-things-you-didnt-know-about-rand-paul
  4. Well it was mentioned. By him. I’m not sure what more you want or why that is insufficient. The only “news” I can find is Bluebonnet, which is the online equivalent of a local paper. They print everybody’s obituary.
  5. This is a great microcosm of how twisted our politics is. 1) Most deaths aren’t exactly newsworthy outside of a brief local obituary. The expectation that there should be some sort of link to prove his vaccination status is bizarre. 2) The alternative hypothesis is I randomly singled out one name and made that story up, I guess, which is even more bizarre. I never met him, but we have mutual friends. I live in the same county. It’s common knowledge. Beyond that, his Facebook page is public. You can see where he was in the hospital and posting about it a couple of months ago, and, in answer to a question, says he had the J&J vaccine. Now sure, he could be lying-except if you search back to early March, you’ll see him talking more than once about looking for a place that gave J&J in particular because he only wanted one dose. That would be a long and extremely committed con to go ahead and get COVID and die. And it’s “whom.”

  7. For what it’s worth, at least 1 of those 3 guys was vaccinated.
  8. I wasn't staking out any position here (or trying to "downplay his death" as Roma said). It was just a statement of fact - I remember reading that last year and thinking that, while their grief was understandable, the rage seemed somewhat misplaced. I don't know that his death was preventable in any event. That's not a defense of past government inaction, it's not intended to imply that his life was not valuable, or that his death was not unfortunate for his loved ones. Just an observation about his specific case as it related to the obituary. In any case, I probably shouldn't have said anything at all, because it wasn't particularly helpful.
  9. And I don’t really disagree with that, for what it’s worth. I just remember reading that obit when it came out last year and thinking that his death specifically was a poor one to try to make that point. Even with an ideal response from the government, he was likely in trouble. Anyway, that’s easier for me to say than the grieving family, I understand why they would be upset.
  10. Mr. Nagy was also 80 years old and obese and died well before there were any vaccines.
  11. Sure, but Ewers was born in March. Not really applicable to him.
  12. Since a couple of people have mentioned his age in passing, it’s worth noting that Ewers actually turned 18 back in March. He must have been held back at some point. He *should* be heading to college now by normal standards. Comparing that to Murphy, who just recently turned 17, is interesting in terms of upside.
  13. Curry can’t guard Bird’s shadow either. Im a millennial, and the old guys win hands down.
  14. Well when you put it that way, it just sounds like standard American policy in the Middle East.
  15. Clearly you aren’t familiar with futureman’s work.
  16. No, not that. Hidden directly underneath your avatar, not below it. You can make out the left leg of the A, the entire t at the end, and the arrow is to the right of the envelope. I don’t know why it’s incorrectly displaying like that, but the point is it’s still actually there.
  17. It appears that "account" is under your avatar and user name in that pic.
  18. These two posts pretty much sum up my thoughts. I suppose whether or not you think that makes this a good move is subjective. And maybe from the perspective of power/money/Texas Football, Inc. it is. But personally, I'm not excited about this move at all. I hate basically everything about it other than playing Arkansas regularly again.
  19. The “tell me you’re old without telling me you’re old” thread.
  20. Now THAT is a dodge.
  21. Yeah, I was totally dodging that sick burn referencing a sign in a random Texas town that was removed over half a century ago. You caught me.
  22. Are they time travelers?
  23. Custodians would have been cool. It’s 1) alliterative 2) maintains the -dians ending (which seems to be the only criteria they considered) and 3) reflects the only occupation most residents of Ohio are qualified for.
  24. Somebody didn’t read the op.
