  1. Yup. And like I mentioned before, the Puma Outlet in Round Rock is a great place to go for Ferrari and Merc merch.
  2. Yup, an obvious and poorly veiled attempt to promote the idea of an equal share in stature, relative to The University of Texas. As always, if it weren't for stolen valor, they'd have no valor at all. Anyway, it don't make a shit. Nobody's fooled.
  3. I don't think the ask for covering the bridges is any big deal, they do it at pretty much every circuit and it's as much a safety thing as anything else, keeping people from clogging up the bridges and making them impassable. Not sure how they're going to collect on 3rd party venues with views like hotels or restaurants, or how they'd realistically block a view of a 3rd party venue that refused to pay. In actuality, what I expect has happened is that the venues have agreed to pay some fee, and they're passing it on to customers, and the customers are gladly paying because it's Vegas and spending money extravagantly is what people do in Vegas. I've stated my personal opinion of expectations for the actual track many times. In general I think street courses suck, and I expect this one to be as bad or worse than most. But hey, I could certainly be wrong and will be delighted if it ends up being a fun track. Oh, and I definitely will not be watching any of this stuff real time. I'll DVR it all and watch at some reasonable time during the weekend.
  4. Well, it's the internet, so...
  5. This is the image I saw on the internet so I assume it's legit:
  6. Definitely. I'm not trying to be snarky when I say this is some of Checo's best driving-- being in a photo-finish type race and not making a mistake that cost himself or Fernando or both.
  7. *sigh* It's not funny because it's true.
  8. We owe $50M. The 2022/2023 distribution was $44M. Is the 2023/2024 distribution going to be more than $44M?
  9. Dallas doing all they can to give this away.
  10. Many years back, I knew better but was goaded by my coworkers into entering a chili cookoff at work. This was in Austin, but it's a large multinational corporation and most of the employees are not from Austin, or even Texas. Many are international. Suffice to say my bowl of delicious Texas red did not win, place, or show. The winner was a vegetarian 3-bean chili, and the runner-up was some kind of chicken dish, pretty sure it was a curry.
  11. What an amazing drive by Fred. Shoulda been DOTD.
  12. Texas has been paid for the 2022/2023 schoolyear. The B12 allotment from the current year won't quite cover the fees owed by Texas. So Texas will indeed have to write a check for the rest, and so could theoretically stiff the B12 for the difference. In reality that won't happen, it's not something an institution with integrity would ever do. That the B12 has zero integrity is a problem, but it won't be our problem after this schoolyear.
  13. It was earlier than that-- in the 2008 Texas-Tech game in Lubbock, the refs allowed such egregious holding on Orakpo that he ultimately got injured and knocked out of the game. Thank goodness it wasn't career-ending but that's only by sheer luck, and that injury is ALL on the B12 and its ref fuckery. Fuck this piece of shit bush league conference. We should have paid whatever it took to get out 2 years ago.
  14. Are there no exit penalties? Historically, the exit penalties have been paid from the conference distribution.
  15. Excellent idea. According to Wordcounter.net, the official word and character count of OP is: 1,834 words 10,220 characters
