  1. Forgot that the FFR was coaching at U of Ill.
  2. I drove a Genesis GV80 as a rental on my Arizona vacation last month. I will say that the self driving / lane holding ability was impressive to me. Interested to know others thought on the whole concept of self driving.
  3. 15 years ago in Port Harcourt Nigeria, I watched Longhorn football by the play by play game tracker with a long delay. Laying in bed in the middle of the night on whatever version of phone I had at that point. It sucked.
  4. Not sure how two families can put their lives back together after something like this. We're members of a Longhorn parents Facebook group and this popped up as a prayer request, as Suzanne is also a member.
  5. They find that lady yet? Maybe she is just laying low in Cabo or somewhere.
  6. Was perusing the “Tell me about Tx A&M” thread, and came here to see what became of Randolph Duke? I thought I remembered him posting that he’d been away for a while, maybe for medical issues, but had kept up with the boards, then nothing. Or am I asking a question that is long since answered?
  7. I had one bottle in my garage fridge that sat unrefrigerated for 60 hours in the Beryl aftermath. Good to go?
  8. Gonna give Ga the 9 we scored on them in the 1984 Cotton Bowl and give Tx the 31 we should have scored. TX - 31 GA - 9 358 yds
  9. Pretty interesting information, thanks OP. Confirms my gut feel that since the mid70’s anyway (when I started paying attention to Texas football) we’ve lost more than we won these types of games, but not by much.
  10. The look of befuddlement on Venables' face is priceless. He's only the guy at OU until the next guy.
  11. I remember the Freddy Akers dance sung to the tune of Safety Dance. but I’m not old….
  12. Lieutenant Dan is the hero we need right now.
  13. Correct. Fred was gone after the 86 season. My mistake.
  14. It was ‘88 I believe. McWilliams first season and kind of the signature win for the year. A dark period indeed. But a glorious win in their stadium that absolutely sucked the air out of the place.
  15. Sale closed on our family place in Port A that we've had for 25 years. Went down for decades before that either in the RV slots or friend's Condo or just rented. Feels like end of an era. Currently we don't feel like just going down and renting a place in Port A, it would feel weird. Got what seemed like good money for a small older condo though.
  16. My dad used to say back in the early '80s "if we could only have $2 gas, we'd all get rich". And there it is! but we're not rich.
  17. somebody has to prop up this economy.
  18. No early mistakes, get rolling on offense, take no prisoners.
  19. That’s what I was thinking also.
  20. Was that the Charlie’s finger game?
  21. Cool, thanks for doing it.

    Getting old sucks

    Buddy of mine was at his family lake house in upstate New York where he grew up. He was swimming around the lake and stopped by the dock a few doors down where several late teenage girls were sunbathing. He asked which one was a “Smith” and one raised her hand. He said “hey, I grew up with your mother Pat”. To which she replied “Pat is my grandmother.” /csb.
  23. I member. I watched some college tennis in those bleachers.
