Well lookie there living in Houston has some perks: only a 1/10 on the Fire scale (assuming they mean wildfire and not some pipeline going boom...)
Looks down at further categories...
9/10 Wind
9/10 Heat
Whelp... can't win them all I guess
Really hoping Texas State manages to parlay our 2 year football renaissance after a decade plus of wandering the desert into a PAC invite. Nothing against the Sunbelt personally, they took us in when we were staring down the barrel of CUSA obscurity forever when the WAC imploded, and really do wish them the best going forward, but this is strictly business, and the PAC offers so much more upside. Would be fun to have UTSA tag along as a travel partner and free up an OOC spot by bringing the rivalry game in conference.... but would also be fun to watch them get left behind with UNT in the AAC if the PAC manages to peel off Memphis and Tulane in a couple years after their buyout drops to a more manageable level...
also missed opportunity for the PAC to get a conference name sponsorship deal with Allstate for the "all-state conference" but went and ruined it by adding Gonzaga...
Probably a lot of mineral wealth up there, just a pesky ice sheet in the way that we would have to wait a few years to melt before we can start extracting...
Rather convinced its just as simple as Trump gave the lower/lower middle class voters multiple boogiemen to get united behind, and now all the ones who aren't white are realizing that it was really just a vehicle for poor whites to feel better about themselves
