  1. Ok flat earther
  2. Love foam rollers. Live and die by my dude at Stretch Lab who works my hips once a week (phrasing). That place has increased my flexibility and mobility tenfold
  3. Money talks Wealth whispers Money + Ketamine screams like a toddler and rips your face off
  4. Also Tech is rebuilding their roster around Canady to make a second title run in Canady's last year of college ball, which means new faces, new roles, etc. That doesn't always equal a title (see: Texas Volleyball 2024) if things don't go exactly the way you want them to. Mike can counsel Glasco on what happens when team chemistry blows up in your face. OU returns a massive chunk of its semifinals team + picked up their new rent-an-ace, as does Texas. Pickens isn't leaving Tennessee and they have a top 5 class coming in. Arkansas is also active in the portal. Not to mention Florida, Florida State, Ole Miss, Oregon. UCLA is gutted, so they likely won't be a huge factor in 2026. Going ahead and crowning Tech as 2026 champions in June of 2025 is pretty dumb, literally anything could happen to them. Canady could blow out her hamstring in March, team chemistry from all the transfers could implode on Glasco, Jazzy Burns could explode Canady's face trying to throw down to 2nd (is 6 years too soon for that?), etc.
  5. The real people with money don't throw public tantrums and display their Ketamine use for the world to see The real money is doing exactly what you said - calling up a rep/Senator and threatening to bankroll a primary challenger or withhold 2026 donations if they don't vote a certain way. Elon thinks the court of Xitter opinion is enough, but it's not. It's not like anyone in DC cares what the rank and file voters actually think. Plus it's all bots. Ted Cruz doesn't care what DonkeyFarts69420 posts on Xitter about him or his voting record. He does care when Tim Dunn calls him up and tells him to vote for/against XYZ or the donation is going to be withheld. And Tim Dunn isn't going on Xitter to call Ted names and threaten him.
  6. I don't think softball has enough juice for an entire offseason thread. And I don't like to start the 2026 season thread until we get the schedule and/or the SEC preseason projections are published. We are talking about Tech because Tech is the most active right now in the portal and we just played them for the title. We are still 4 days from the portal closing, so I think keeping it here is fine. Just waiting to see who we get and if anyone leaves. A certain someone appears to be loafing her way to the portal, just like she did to first base so many times.
  7. Didn’t Big Noon go to a CU game in 23 that didn’t air on Fox?
  8. And all of these players choosing Tech right now want to win a ring in her last year. They didn’t choose Tech because they love Lubbock and Glasco and the world class education at Tech What happens if they don’t win one next year?
  9. Texas fans (not here) are extremely insecure about Tech and Glasco. He’s not going to take over college softball because a mega donor paid $1m for Canady. If he doesn’t win it all next year, they’re never going to. And what Tech does not affect Texas. I highly doubt they’re going to drop a million on a star pitcher every single season for the next decade. Mike has a ring to flash and a team of players he developed on his recruiting resume. Glasco has a team a donor paid for and one pitcher dragged it the finals
  10. and unless they win it all, a transfer portal champ isn’t going to mean much. Just like football
  11. Kaitlyn Terry, UCLA to Tech
  12. Florida 2B Mia Williams officially to Tech She had 2 singles in 3 games against TK this year. Just sayin’. 2 hitless games against The GOAT

    Why would they? Who was going to invade the Death Star that they need K2 units to go on the offensive?

  16. Try to do it through the legal avenues available to them, be arrested Don't show up, be hunted down like you're #1 on the FBI's most wanted list
  17. Depends what color you are. White = justice. Black = crime
  18. Knicks would probably decline Rivers' interview request lol
  19. Yeah but the shirt I bought yesterday says "Teagan Kavan is my hero" not "NiJaree Canady and a million dollars are my hero"
  20. That’s the book. Seems like we’ve come full circle a bit
  21. I've been reading a book about 1890s by HW Brands (hook' em!) and these rich ass mofos owned the presidents, not the other way around. They didn't grovel at the feet of McKinley or Cleveland, or act like simps, they barged in the Oval and dropped their nuts on the table when they needed something.
  22. It's really difficult to go against Mike building a title team through recruiting, with one or two key transfers. Most of the key contributors were top 50 or top 100 recruits. Like you said, depth is more important for football and the draft can create holes. Texas had 6 of 8 everyday offensive players (Maloney, Henry, Mia, Reese, Stewie, Goode) recruited to and developed at Texas; I do not recall Mitchell being a highly sought after recruit and we all know KB was not. 3 of 4 pitchers were recruited to and developed at Texas - TK, Cit, Cam. And Mac Morgan was not a rental, she came here as a sophomore and was coached/developed for 3 seasons. I think the lack of overall portal success outside of the Oregon 4, Joley, Mac, Czech and Dolcini speaks to Mike's belief that the majority of his roster needs to be primarily recruited to Texas and developed by Texas. And Dolcini was a special case, because Elish screwed us as hard as possible I would be shocked if Texas picks up more than 2 portal players this year, depending on if Cit leaves or not.
  23. ACC/SEC matchups set Florida at Duke North Carolina at Kentucky Virginia at Texas NC State at Auburn Clemson at Alabama Louisville at Arkansas Oklahoma at Wake Forest SMU at Vanderbilt Texas A&M at Pitt Mississippi State at Georgia Tech Miami at Ole Miss LSU at Boston College Virginia Tech at South Carolina Tennessee at Syracuse Missouri at Notre Dame Georgia at Florida State
  24. I have wondered, to myself, if we were only listed because of Easton. If she didn't want to sit behind an established ace, Texas was also a bad place to go. Because TK is only going to be a junior; Pickens at least is going to be a senior. Baylor needs as much help as they can get, tbh. They were not good last year. Feels like if we are going to get another pitcher, it will be someone with 1 year left, because they want to contend for a title and graduate.
  25. S'Mya Jones also to Baylor, phew. That seemed weird and useless
