  1. pictures of some of the damage to nearby homes: (from https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2024/09/19/photos-a-closer-look-into-the-damages-left-by-pipeline-fire-in-deer-park/)
  2. Korea flavor.. didn't know what to expect, but they are outstanding and very addictive:
  3. It's a little easier sell given that in the past 10 years they've had 7 first round CBs drafted and will likely have another one in the upcoming draft. It's actually a pretty incredible run of top talent.
  4. Two things, he wanted to leave the state. Wanted to be far enough from home to "be on his own". He also wanted to go where he would be developed for the NFL, he didn't feel Texas was that place. His quote was: "Coming out of Texas is best for me because I feel like that's where the best DBs go. No disrespect to all those Texas schools down there — I mean, I go down and I see them all and I have fun with them. But I feel like me and the talent I have, I feel like coming to a school like Ohio State or Alabama, that's where I'm going to get developed." He said Ohio State pursed him harder than anyone else and felt like home from day one. No ties originally. This was mainly just a case of a kid being smart enough to know that a couple hundred miles from home wasn't far enough for him to have the life he wanted.
  5. Deboer is a good coach and teams with better rosters tend to win. Until recruiting drops off, Alabama is going to be fine. For #2 there are way more "have nots" than "haves" and the open season NIL window will be closed at some point soon IMO. There be limits/changes to NIL that will minimize the gap.
  6. lol... top is Hy-Vee? lol... Hy-vee has publically stated they won't enter Texas because of HEB and the loyalty it has.
  7. likely the customer service (hoping)... I'm in similar "watch" hell with Verizon and am going to a store this weekend to try and get fixed. I have a new Pixel 9 phone and bought a new Pixel Watch 3 LTE, both from Google. I upgraded my phone with Verizon no problem. I'm now trying to add my watch into the mix. I know I need an additional line but want it to do the number share where can answer/text as if from my phone's number. Customer service is telling me I can't do it unless I buy the watch from Verizon... with "bring your own device" there is no way to do it... Update: went to Verizon store and the connected my watch in 15 mins....all good now I really have phone/chat/online support. It's just typically a big FU experience for customers.
  8. The paranoia has to be off the charts. Israel just needs to leak that the papers and walkie-talkies were bugged with gps and microphones and they are tageting missile strikes now to push them over the edge.
  9. Best "Worst" case you're all clear and won't go back for 10 years. Worse case you will glad you did it earlier rather than later. It's a no lose situation and you get propofol (make sure you are getting propofol).....
  10. If you are going to create an epic saga like Horizon, you have to have a solid soundtrack. It doesn't. It's just ok.
  11. Finally a name I could see Florida actually going after that might say yes. Plus is would lead to speculation that Elko would be in the mix for Penn State and if nothing else force A&M to give him a raise and giant new contract.
  12. So is IRS considered an organization or no?
  13. Apparently there isn't enough money in football to pay players, we now need to add more money in to pot.
  14. Not being able to find it/know of it is a sign of how disappointing it has been
  15. I like what I've see so far and without questioning we're fielding a better defense - player and scheme wise, but with PK the test is going to be against a good passing offense. We won't see one of those until Georgia. Actually that looks like the only time we will see one until playoffs.
  16. More annoying is really starting to see a concerted effort by broadcasters/commentators to back the refs and paint whatever picture is needed to support the ref calls even in cases where it seems obvious they got it wrong.
  17. From what I've read the Taylor fab has just been waiting for process to solidify so they can start building out the Taylor facility. Right now it's basically empty waiting on designs. They are a couple years off of starting up best case.
  18. I mean did he steal Elko's Cheetos at the time and Elko sat on his shoulder? How much is too much? He looked hurt. Faking pain after getting benched for smoking too much weed is a bit much.
  19. You think keeping Napier changes that?
  20. We're giving up less than a touchdown per game. Your betting on can Texas score 49 on a poor coverage team.
  21. Is he going to tell his receivers to not run to the end zone? ULM doesn't have the athletes to cover our guys. He'll protect the RBs so throwing more and scoring more.
