  1. say, can anyone tell me if fran thinks that the houston cougars are tough?
  2. add amen thompson and jarren jackson jr to the list.
  3. nobody ever gets upset with me when i say, “Texas Player A is better than people think he is”, or “Texas coach B made a great decision there.” nobody gets mad when im like, “yeah tre johnson is going to be awesome”. but as soon as i say, “shaka smart sucks”, or “jarrett allen isn’t going to be ready from day one”, or “quinn ewers isn’t as good as y’all say he is”, or, *gasp*, “it was not a smart move for gunnar helm to keep running after injuring himself”, then you grown ass adults lose your ever loving fucking minds, you fly in here with the personal attacks (fat fucking fifty something loser piece of shit!!!”) and the mental health diagnoses, all because *you* can’t cope with someone saying something that isn’t positive about a UT player or coach. and then you have the gall to call me hypersensitive, and to accuse me of freaking out over a simple difference of opinion. what a load of self righteous horse shit. every accusation is a confession, and you people have less than zero self awareness. grow the fuck up, and stop with the tantrums and name calling just because someone didn’t slurp your favorite athlete. what a cowardly way to behave. you behave the very way you accuse me of behaving and then you blame me for it, like my benign ass comments are responsible for your childish overreactions. grow the fuck up man. it’s embarrassing.
  4. ??? not wanting gunnar helm to injure himself means i’m shitting in him and that i’m a narcissist? seriously, where do you people come up with this stuff? im sorry, but this rampant armchair diagnosing of me in this and the QE thread is the funniest thing ever. there are a dozen+ people on these boards who know me personally and they would laugh in your face at the idea that i’m a narcissist. who here is more self deprecating than i am? seriously? who makes more fat/mental illness jokes about me than me? my fucking avatar and background were/are the olive garden never ending pasta bowl commercial. and your takeaway is that i’m a narcissist? because i said gunnar shouldn’t have run on an injured leg? do you people even hear yourselves?
  5. that’s ridiculous. how does that happen?
  6. honest question- how in the hell does a team from corpus have a record like that in a state like texas? i understand that they’re in region 4 or whatever and that most of their opponents will be from the valley or the lower gulf coast and not from dallas or houston, but that is a wildly impressive record. i honestly didn’t know that teams that far south could be that good. just generally not enough size compared to the big city/suburban schools.
  7. adding beal to booker and durant was one of the all time stupidest moves in nba history, because there wasn’t a single person outside of the people who made the trade who thought that it was anything other than a terrible idea that was 100% doomed to fail. you took a team that needed a front court star and a few role players to become a contender, and instead you added the exact skill set that you already had too much of, for an insane price, for a player who has never been a winning player in the nba. it would be like denver signing joel embiid to a huge contract this offseason. just the most inexplicably bargain dead move possible.
  8. LAL has won 11 straight against teams that are over .500. jj redick is probably the coach of the year at this point.
  9. texas a&m has one player over 6’7” and can’t score to save their lives and yet they dominate the glass, are 2nd in the sec in 2-pt fg% defense, and are an unequivocally better team than Texas, despite our superior roster. the people blaming the roster are failing to grasp how important coaching is in this sport.
  10. chris beard would take shedrick, onyema, pryor, kaluma, and tre and have this team defending the paint and rebounding better than 80% of this league.
  11. you guys have battered fan syndrome. it is NOT the roster. that roster has no centers, no shooters, a total of two players taller than 6’7”, a total of three guys who aren’t subpar athletes, zero nba players, and nobody remotely close to as good as tre johnson, and they were no.1 in kenpom and went to elite 8. *if* that roster is better than our current one then it’s marginally better. how quickly you guys forget that a good coach is worth an entire roster of better players.
  12. those teams do not have better rosters than texas. neither does a&m, ole miss, miss state, or georgia. again, our roster is not the reason our team sucks. the fact that we hired a guy who wasn’t anything other than mediocre in conferences five rungs below ours is the reason.

  14. like i said, we have a better roster than like six teams that are ahead of us in the sec, including teams that have been in the top 15-25 all year long. the roster isn’t the problem.
  15. looks ole we need steve vs roundball and baboon vs durdy. @Baboontyme are you able to adjust the schedule? i’m crashing out now and won’t be up for a while.
  16. reminder of payout structure.
  17. i guess at the end of the day we’ve always had six teams make the playoffs, so we ouuht to do 3 vs 6 and 4 vs 5 this week, then 1 plays lowest remaining seed/2 plays the other team in a one week semifinal before a two week final. that said, someone besides me might need to set the schedule, as i’m having trouble trying to do it via the app.
  18. it was supposed to be some week first round featuring 3 vs 6 and 4 vs 5, followed by a two week semis and a two week finals. but that would mean that this past week should have been round one, with the remaining four weeks for the semis and finals. and i need to set the schedule some time today before the first game, so, yeah. i really can’t call it.
  19. absolute clown: https://x.com/thehoopherald/status/1896242460004937890?s=46 totslly embarrassing.
  20. i’m not sure how this happened again, but there’s only four weeks left in the season. we either only let the top four in and do two two-week rounds, which screws the 5 and 6 seeds, or we do a bye week for 1 and 2, with a one round quarters followed by a one round semis and a two round finals, which screws the 1 and 2 seeds. definitely need someone else to chime in here. we’ve got like 15 hours to get this sorted, and i’m definitely leaning towards the solution where the top two seeds don’t get screwed.
