  1. edit: if history repeats with Bijan ala VY and Kurt I will fucking burn that place down
  2. Agree on his arm. Also his pocket presence and throws under pressure just really pop. He is facing some pressure with that line and consistently converting that for big plays with his arm, which is huge in the NFL. Of course I'm horribly, horribly biased.
  3. My experience, which should of course be immediately discarded, is that if they are very good in one direction they almost assuredly suck in the other.
  4. Suspected murderers probably
  5. It sure seems like that was a problem last year, which fits with its dysfunctional construction. We can only hope the Davis rumor (if true) and GP somehow unfucks that staff, because no way it survives a repeat of last year. Or my liver but this isn't about me.
  6. ftr I did not see this post
  7. Klatt on Texas, references OSU game spoilered for douche face Play he references. Nothing we didn't see all year, stupid calls led to bad positioning caused hilariously bad angles.
  8. ¿La pregunta es que estaban Gabachos o Gringos?
  9. Handler: "Ah, so they like mutton in their diet? Wool clothing is popular?" Spy: "Not exactly..."
  10. Because of my own self-loathing issues I've also been re-watching, and it occurred to me that the KSU offensive game plan seemed 100% designed to protect our defense (for those not so inclined the KSU game featured a dozen or more Wildcat plays w/ RoJo taking the snap and CT split out wide, lots of game-shortening). I mention that in the context of both the ISU collapse (and others) as well as the PK-Sark dialogue we all wish we could eavesdrop on. It seems all of the kool-aide I've found remotely appetizing is all on the Offensive side of the ball, so hopefully we can use improvements there to protect our Defense, because other than "How in the blue fuck could we be worse" I'm not sure how we improve dramatically there.
  11. Good thing we aren't boycotting anybody with any bombs.
  12. As an at least part-time cattleman I don't rate this as credible, that wasn't even true before barbed wire, so I doubt he really believed that. I used to work in that area and, as also noted in the article, a lot of ranches in the area, if not most of them, no longer even run cattle (the area is pretty heavily O&G). So it seems for a while now this judge has been able to round up and sell whatever he finds because a good many of them are going to remain unclaimed anyway so nobody notices they are missing. Notably, no ostensible owner of said animals ever came forward to complain, this was just an out-of-town Brand Inspector guy that got a tip. So this judge got into the (illegal) habit of selling strays and giving the proceeds to a boys' ranch in Amarillo and now will likely go to jail for that. Knowing the backstory didn't make it any less strange.
  13. Fucking this. The coverage of these things is always "OMG CASH IN BIG MAC BOX" instead of thinking "wow why did this guy get caught?" like nobody ever gave a recruit a bag of money. gtfoh edit: I should be more specific, imo the actual story is the fraud/corruption of the AD or boosters or whoever not the free nail job
  14. Comment from the article in OP
  15. Truly a masochistic fanbase.
  16. I don't follow it closely enough but in 2014 APD was subject to an exhaustive investigation by DOJ due to patterns of excessive use of force, in particular by its SWAT team, and in general for being trigger happy. However a quick google doesn't reveal anybody getting fired back then. (edit: then one year later one undercover cop shoots another one NINE TIMES during a drug investigation. Dude survived...)
  17. Hits close to home as I was in my storage unit the other day and accidentally broke my Bud Light Texas Longhorns neon. FML
  18. csb I was in line at Iron Works behind freshman Colt, the Roomate, and their dads and I remarked to my lunchmates later "Holy shit that dude is, like, smaller than I am. We might be fucked at QB." /csb I don't disown my stupidity.
  19. Well you could force a livestock to watch you cook and eat his testicles. Or so I've heard. That seems pretty hardcore.
  20. I don't disagree but OTOH a non-regarded Defense last year and we win 8 or 9 games.
  21. I can't even believe anybody wants to talk about the offense at all, is where I'm at. I mean, we do have football players on offense, and football coaches there also, so we can talk about that. But my primary attitude after last year remains "our defensive roster is a raging tire fire making its own weather in a dumpster floating down a third-world sewer during a hurricane, and the entire defensive staff consists of either ignorant grifters or brain-damaged footbaw dipshits." I just try not to say that out loud. Of course the first 3-and-out from Alabama's Offense (if that even happens I mean fuck, wait, where was I) and I'll be
  22. I used to race sportbikes (slowly), and for a long time mfg.s limited the top speed to <190mph. I don't know if there was a formal or informal agreement, but also for a long time they wouldn't sell bikes with more than 200 hp until they did. And I think some newer bikes will go over 200 (but I didn't look it up).
