  1. However the RT experiment goes, I'll take him in a heartbeat over Shaka. Good for Coach Smart that he and Marquette have been ranked for the past three seasons and thrown up a lot of big wins. He did not/could not do that here. He had several years and every opportunity. In his one full season on the Forty, RT eclipsed anything Shaka was able to do, and he did it with a team that he mostly cobbled together with spare parts plucked from the portal.
  2. Not a politician or pastor but still seemed thread relevant.
  3. If you'd told me the Spurs would be 8-8 after losing Sochan early in the season and Wemby missing three of those games, I'd have said you were nuts. You're still nuts, of course, but now I have to back the insult with a different rationale.
  4. Ah, yes, another one of those "if he can break the chain, he can break the rules" enablers. It's all fun and games until he shows back up with a kaiser blade.
  5. Syracuse? Oh, you mean Syrville. That's what everybody there calls it.
  6. So did you get your Whataburger or change your mind and hit the Campisi's instead?
  7. Looks great. Also looks like barely enough for one mouthful.
  8. Seems even more risky when you recall that Jaguars were notorious for faulty electronics (courtesy of Lucas, I think).
  9. They generally don't run long enough for anybody to be able to read them so ... moot.
  10. Top comment: "When this sucker hits 48mph you’re gonna see some serious shit" The sounds that dude made had me rooting for Darwin's Award by the end.
  11. I expect (hope?) the 3-point defense metric to improve as the season progresses. As much lenf as Texas has on the perimeter, there's no excuse for it not to. Same for the steal rate. Our 'Horns have all the makings of a great defensive team. Against the one opponent with a pulse, however, they weren't very good. Guess we'll find out soon enough.
  12. Goodman looks familiar. Took me a moment to realize why.
  13. It just turned 20, so bear that in mind when playing it, but it was every bit as groundbreaking as the original. A true opus. On that note, Valve doesn't make many games, but their "hit" rate is nearly unmatched. HL, HL2, Portal and Portal 2 stand amongst the best ever.
  14. Well, yeah, anyone should like that. Setting aside its trigger issue, the Model 700 is a superb rifle.
  15. I'm a broken record at this point, but I really, really wish the Spurs had picked up him at No.8. They did well to snag Castle at No.4, and Knecht would've been the icing on the cake. He also would've filled a big need as a sniper. Instead, they took Dillingham and immediately traded him to the TWolves for picks. Still can't believe Knecht fell all the way to No.17. I imagine many other teams are going to wish they'd picked him, too. Trust the process, bruh.
  16. Ah, I'd walked away and only caught the tail end of the replay. Didn't realize the El Tri player was moving away from goal. Honduras was dumb from start to finish. Virtually no effort or intent to score. Not sure why they thought coming in up 2-0 on aggregate would be enough to guarantee them advancement even if they sat back and allowed Mexico to fire at will for the full 90.
  17. Didn't the foul occur a meter outside the box? So the answer appears to be one, and it was totally not needed.
  18. That seemed inevitable.
