  1. He's not negotiating up from 2-3 year deals to that.  Teams know he's had a drop off and it's very unlikely he's ever getting back to what he was a few years ago.  He would have already signed if anyone had offered something like that.

    Bullshit. Some rich donors may have put some pressure but trump doesn't care and his voters are morons. He could shut down the government again and they'd love him for it. Or more specifically, they would just blame the democrats again (Ted Cruz called it the Shumer shut down, it was the dems!!). His voters truly believe that, because again, they're morons. There would never be a real GOP mutiny. They would never cross their cheeto god, the voters would revolt.

    Why do you think he caved then?  You think he enjoys letting Pelosi embarrass him?

    He's a god to the GOP voters. GOP senators would never cross him and sure as fuck would never veto any of his decisions. It would be against the word of god to do such a thing. They would lose their next primary.

    Nah, he would have never folded if he had the undying support of Republican Senators.  He finally got to the end of his leash with the shutdown.  Now he's walking back needing additional funding for the imaginary wall that is already being built because he has finally been made to understand that he can't beat Pelosi on this one.

  4. We used to see porcupines fairly regularly at our old deer lease just outside of Brady, but we lost it 7 or 8 years ago.  Haven't seen any at the new one.  I can't remember the last time I saw a ringtail. I remember seeing them all the time while hunting when I was a kid.

  5. One of the stores was the HEB Plus in Bastrop.  I wouldn't be so cocky, I expect it's gonna be like this everywhere sooner or later.  The briskets still have the fat cap intact, but when they remove the deckle it looks like they take a much bigger hunk than necessary out of the point. 

  6. So does HEB not sell untrimmed packers anymore?  I've been to 2 different ones in the last week and they both had either super trimmed or a new creation called deckle trimmed brisket that is 5 or 10 bucks more expensive and very mangled looking on the point end.  They do a shitty job of removing the deckle. Thanks a lot you assholes.

    I wouldn’t take me as literally as you did here. I was just spitballing an excuse and probably chose too low key of one, for these guys, frankly. 

    Let me be perfectly clear about Shepherd. If Texas somehow winds up with him, I’ll be out in front rationalizing why I am excited to see what they can do with him. I’ll be fucking shocked if that happens though. 

    Turning up in College Station instead of Austin seems like something they would do.

  8. Does the pastrami brine penetrate all the way through the center of the brisket in 3.5 days?  Most of the recipes have seen take a week to make sure the brisket is cured all the way through.

  9. Heaven forbid we talk about recruits on the recruiting board.  Some of us have been following this stuff for 20 years at this point.  You start to get a pretty good idea about physical development after awhile.

  10. Yep, looks at Colt's shoulders and legs in high school.  Very different than Card.  Also, Card has been in an excellent strength program since middle school.  He's not a guy who's been on the school lunch program his entire life while barely touching weights.  Card looks a lot more like Case than Colt.
