  1. Cmon man
  2. You dont know how many players’ boosters’ girlfriends’ cousins’ assistant coaches’ directors of operations read this board and use it for motivation
  3. Like, historically and statistically speaking, have these threads turned well for the longhorns in the outcomes of the actual game?
  4. I thought there was nothing weirder in the CFB world than middle aged men holding obsessive interest in high schoolers (aka Tweetin at Croots)…until i discovered the world of Coaching Administration Drama.
  5. I just really appreciate the subtle and beautiful foreshadowing where all these posters get rip roaring drunk and bicker with each-other while discussing the coaching administration
  6. that car tint looks darker than wesley snipes in a vampire night club
  7. Caldwell's strength, from the small TX sample size and from the posters who followed his previous squad, is in the quick developing passes that dont require robust line protection. Hoping Ant Hill and Lefau gets to feast
  8. I thought the Beach Boys were a fictitious band conjured up for the TV show Full House.

    Sonos thread

    Kinda disappointing news, but the IKEA-Sonos collaboration is expiring and won't be renewed. All their stock has been steadily clearing out. If you want something, buy it now. I'm surprised at the news. They seemed popular to retail for nominally higher prices than from just a few years ago. (Old-design electronics don't have this inflation). My local IKEA warehouses are empty. In the secondary market, they maintain pricing power. I'm trying to buy a bunch of the art frames and desk lamps for a new house and they're difficult to find. The company's stock is also recovering from a few years of wandering the wilderness...
  10. My worry about penalties is less about the D giving up free yardage, and more about the O losing momentum/possession, and dragging the D back onto the field. Home field noise advantage... no excuses for them to rack up penalties this weekend.
  11. talking-head style videos are already as annoying as they are... the thing that makes it worse is when they fucking add repetitive zoom-cuts to it. zoom cuts are where they constantly change the zoom level with different sentences. it can/should be used occasionally to punctuate stuff, but their zooms are too small to be effective, but just large enough to be noticeable and annoying.
  12. Vandy's success isnt based on clever scheming and playcalling, where its a battle of coaches. It's ball control and improv play, which is a contest of athleticism. In that respect I think this Texas team humbles them. McDonald, Littleton, Muhammad, Simmons, Hill, etc, are going to get their licks in. So long as we avoid dumb penalties.
  13. The NFL All-Pro Fuck-Up Roster sports some pretty serious talent: QB: Vick Backs: AD, Ray Rice, OJ WR/TE: Plaxico, Irvin, Aaron Hernandez OL: Jason Peters, Barrett Robbins Def: Ray Lewis, Aldon Smith, Pacman Jones, Darren Sharper (hardest hitting mfer in the league)
  14. Texas is the current betting favorite. I want to believe. 1. Home game 2. We're probably ~equivalent to LSU. Vandy barely beat them on home turf. 3. Best defense they'll face 4. We are not anointing any more Taysom Hills. 5. Their having to prepare for the unknown of Manning vs Caldwell
  15. Fucking hated Jim Tressel's 2002 and 2003 OSU teams because it seemed like they barely squeaked out wins against almost any opponent they had. By the skin of their teeth, one team won a natty and the other finished 11-2. I want Texas to be like those teams.
  16. challenge accepted.
  17. in the original Godfather, the 4-masted barque Moshulu was shown in front of Ellis Island when Vito Corleone snuck away to America in 1901. however, that ship was not christened until 1904, and only to work the grain trade in Australia. it would not have ferried people or otherwise made berth in New York. today the ship is permanently docked in Philadelphia to serve as a floating restaurant.
  18. just saw that Nick Mangold died at 41, 9 days after publicly pleading for a kidney transplant because none of his family are O+ compatible donors. AI gave me these stats and they're wild: -11 people die daily waiting for transplants -90k people are on waitlist, with median wait time 3-5 years, longest is for type O
  19. it being a home game will do this team good.
  20. its totally bullshit how the leading team in the Pac-12 isnt ranked.
  21. what this question presupposes is... theyre not 🧐 like, i wonder if they get a minimum wage base-rate on the books just for showing up
  22. how much of a strippers income is declared for taxes? 20%?
