  1. It was probably justified at the time because we were losing recruits to other programs, and it was premature because Baker needed time to build the relationships and because we are now the number 1 team in America, and all that that implies.
  2. This is 180 from just 2 months ago when, rightly justified, most everyone was questioning Baker and his ability to recruit. Not sure how much of the change is Baker vs just being the fucking number 1 team in the land. Maybe both? I don't care. I just hope we keep fucking them brakes.
  3. For the love of gawd, please no time travel and alternate realities bullshit. Just give me a straight up good-ish guys versus bad guys, lots of explosions, some humor, and a half decent plot. Not too much to ask. Make me not regret seeing a Marvel product not named Deadpool.
  4. Maybe he wanted to kill the fuckhead back judge, who threw the bullshit targeting flag and didn't throw a flag for Wingo getting molested on a deep ball, and had to be restrained from other players.
  5. Fuck the dude with the football. I'm gonna make sure I take out my blocker. Highlight reel, bitches.
  6. Not just us. I've seen videos of different college stadiums playing Thunderstuck to amp up the crowd to the same theme: lights off, LED lights synched to Thunderstruck.
  7. Every Saturday, AC/DC receives a shitton of royalty revenue. I think every college stadium plays Thunderstruck at least once.
  8. Energy on the field was different. In the 1st half, after plays, the D was much more active talking shit to, interacting with each other. In the 2nd half after plays, there was little interaction. It was like, eh, next play. During that series, there was a ton of interaction between the players. They were amped and wanted the safety.
  9. Was at the game. The D (and the crowd) kinda went through the motions for most of the 2nd half. But this series was fun to watch. The crowd decided to get into it. The D basically flipped a switch and said to themselves, we are getting a motherfucking safety. And they did. Quite impressive that this is how fucking good this team is. Arch looks like Quinn did in his first start. Flashes of greatness coupled with not feeling comfortable enough to trust his reads and throws. For a stretch in the 2nd half, I think Sark called some plays which required Arch to make some reads and get the ball out quickly. Receivers were open that if it were Quinn, he makes the throw. Arch held the ball and didn't make the throw. After a few of those series, Sark went back to quick throws to the flat and RPOs which Arch easily made. Teachable and coaching moments. It's beautiful to watch knowing that the mistakes will be addressed in film. I fucking love our coaching staff. This is how you build a fucking dynasty.
  10. I know it was a cool way to win but rushing the fucking field for beating Baylor. Wow.
  11. This is one that the offseason reports pegged correctly. He's living up to the hype.
  12. Should've left out the part about him wanting to rape your 12 year old self.
  13. @Dbeasy
  14. Doing stupid shit so that his base can masturbate to stupid shit. This dude can't roll his ass out of office fast enough. 1. His buddies hold up border bill. 2. Install razor wires as a publicity stunt. 3. Idiot base goes crazy. Republican voters are god damned idiots. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/texas-new-mexico-border-wire-b2615743.html In an effort to prevent migrant crossings from the southern border, Texas installed a razor wire along its border with New Mexico, not Mexico — upsetting the southwestern state’s governor. Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced on September 14 that his state would be “TRIPLING our razor wire border barriers to deny illegal entry into our state and our country.” However, rather than installing the razor wire along the Rio Grande river bank that faces Mexico, KTSM on Tuesday captured footage of Texas Army National Guard troops installing it along a bank that faces New Mexico. This newly-laid barrier extends from West Paisano Drive to the Texas side of the Anapra, New Mexico, according to the outlet. New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, a Democrat, told The Independent in a statement that Republican Abbott’s latest move was a “political stunt” that will have “will have no meaningful impact on our nation’s broken immigration system.” The Texas governor “seems to be pushing to make Texas its own country without regard for his neighbors or the fact that Texas is already part of a great nation—the United States,” Lujan Grisham said. She continued: “If he doesn’t think that New Mexico is important to the overall well-being of Texas, then he must be forgetting about the Permian Basin and the oil industry that straddles our two states. I don’t see him laying concertina wire there.” The New Mexico governor then urged Congressional Republicans to “stop holding up the carefully negotiated, bipartisan agreement they are deliberately stalling in Washington at the expense of our entire nation.”
  15. Question. So when this dude tries to sell it for millions, how can he prove that ball is legit? What's to keep anyone dude from selling a baseball and claiming that is the ball?
  16. UC system, especially UCLA, got bitch slapped for this. Now, UC Davis only take in state kids. UCLA stopped drastically reduce international student acceptance. I don't think Texas schools are taking more out of state kids. The lege would definitely frown on that. Would love to see stats.
  17. speaking of...did we ever get an update???
  18. Grown ass idiots with Nazi haircuts dressed up as hillbillies making gang signs to get their cult gang to grunt and hump each other. What a time to be alive!
  19. O&G bros trigger alert. Anyone who's driven through Luling sarcastically will say, "NO WAI!" I think the saying in Luling is that's the smell of money. Sure...cognitive dissonance is a great coping mechanism. https://www.texastribune.org/2024/09/20/texas-oil-wells-hydrogen-sulfide-caldwell-county/ Study finds levels of a dangerous gas “off the scales” in Central Texas oilfield The smell of oil wells has long permeated Caldwell County, near Austin and San Antonio. Now researchers have documented wells releasing dangerous amounts of hydrogen sulfide gas. The first readings Abigail Edgar took of hydrogen sulfide and methane at oilfields in Caldwell County in 2021 were so high that she thought her equipment was malfunctioning. “It was off the scales. Methane was off the scales and hydrogen sulfide was off the scales,” said Edgar, a master’s student in geography at Texas State University. “The monitor would immediately start beeping when I crossed the property line.” Edgar was recording dangerous levels of hydrogen sulfide at wells on private property in Caldwell County, 30 miles southeast of Austin. Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic and highly flammable gas often found in oil and gas formations. During the course of her research, the gas was so potent at three separate wells that Edgar’s respirator did not provide enough protection and she had to leave for her safety. Edgar teamed up with University of Cincinnati environmental scientist Amy Townsend-Small, an expert on methane, to take another round of measurements in 2023. They found the wells were directly releasing gas — including hydrogen sulfide and methane — into the atmosphere in a process called venting. Some of the wells venting gas were alongside public roads. Others were next to backyards and driveways. In a paper published in Environmental Research Communications last week, Edgar, Townsend-Small and other authors at Texas State University and the University of Maryland report hydrogen sulfide readings at 46 wells around Caldwell County. Hydrogen sulfide concentrations at 13 of the wells were at least 300 parts per million (ppm) — the maximum reading on the measuring device. Eight other sites had readings over 100 ppm. Exposure to 100 ppm of hydrogen sulfide is immediately dangerous to life or health, according to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. The study warns these hydrogen sulfide levels are a hazard for people living and working in the area. “Here in Texas we rely heavily on the oil industry and protect the oil industry. And I think rightfully so,” Edgar said. “But there has to be something done for these neighbors. We’re slowly poisoning these communities.”
  20. Reddit is all over the place on this. - Supposedly they were best friends - Supposedly the judge was progressive and sent people to treatment instead of jail. Supposedly Sheriff was on board with this. - Both are Dems so prob not politically motivated - Supposedly one was sleeping with the other's daughter
  21. We need him to play the glorified practice against Miss St in preparation for the gauntlet (OU and UGA). I would think the entire team knows this.
  22. My daughters went to LASA (old LBJ campus) and graduated from UT. During LASA graduations, LASA lists the kids and what universities/colleges that they are attending. If I remember correctly, both times LASA had over 15% of the graduating class going to UT-Austin. I think over 25% of the LASA kids were accepted by UT. I would imagine that is the still the norm, but maybe not since LASA moved to the bigger school with larger number of kids. For reference. Neither kids were top 10% at LASA. One was accepted in Plan II, the other was accepted in the Business School.
  23. My wife and I call that date night.
  24. Damn. https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/huge-python-grabs-thai-woman-kitchen-squeezes-hours-113835105 BANGKOK -- A 64-year-old woman was preparing to do her evening dishes at her home outside Bangkok when she felt a sharp pain in her thigh and looked down to see a huge python taking hold of her. “I was about to scoop some water and when I sat down it bit me immediately,” Arom Arunroj told Thailand's Thairath newspaper. “When I looked I saw the snake wrapping around me.” The four-to-five-meter-long (13-to-16-foot-long) python coiled itself around her torso, squeezing her down to the floor of her kitchen. “I grabbed it by the head, but it wouldn't release me,” she said. “It only tightened.” Pythons are non-venomous constrictors, which kill their prey by gradually squeezing the breath out of it. Propped up against her kitchen door, she cried for help but it wasn't until a neighbor happened to be walking by about an hour and a half later and heard her screams that authorities were called. Responding police officer Anusorn Wongmalee told The Associated Press on Thursday that when he arrived the woman was still leaning against her door, looking exhausted and pale, with the snake coiled around her. Police and animal control officers used a crowbar to hit the snake on the head until it released its grip and slithered away before it could be captured. In all, Arom spent about two hours on Tuesday night in the clutches of the python before being freed. She was treated for several bites but appeared to be otherwise unharmed in videos of her talking to Thai media shortly after the incident.
