Comes down to mutual aid agreements , plus what you have going on in your district or municipality at the time.

Same here. My kids have attended Camp Champions for years, which is on Lake LBJ. They've stayed in cabins that are right at the shore's edge, and I've never before thought that anything bad might happen. And I know that lake is a lot different than the Guadalupe or Llano Rivers, but I'm guessing from now on Camp Champions will publish to any current and prospective parents a detailed disaster response plan, even if the odds of a catastrophic event like this are miniscule. All waterfront camps are going to develop a "we will not let that happen to your child" type of marketing plan. Too many parents won't view what happened at Camp Mystic as a lightening strike.

I've been told that we are between the 1st and 2nd apron and we have some extra flexibility to do sign and trades. This all depends on our draft haul, of course. May need to move a couple players to the taxi squad to make it all work.

Ohio State knows what to expect from Texas, but OSU is kind of a wild card. They have new coordinators on both sides (though Day will have his stamp on the offense). Hartline was a bit pass happy his first time around. We will see what Patricia does in college. I am hoping Patricia over complicates the defense and it takes him awhile to find his groove similar to Wink Martindale at Michigan last year.

That is fucking awesome. In honor of the 50th anniversary, I would have gone with the Jaws analogy: "Mr. Manfred, what we are dealing with here is a perfect engine, a Dodger-beating machine. It's really a miracle of evolution. All this machine does is pitch and hit and make little pitchers and hitters, and that's all. Now, why don't you take a long, close look at this second baseman. [gestures to 5'5" Altuve] Those proportions are correct."

I'd almost be tempted to shelve Ream and throw someone like Musah out there as an extra defensive mid. It's just such a bummer that we only have one CB worth a shit and - as much as anyone likes Richards - he isn't exactly a shutdown defender. Hopefully he keeps getting better going into next summer.

Ohio state always reloads. The most consistent fucking assholes in college football. I expect little to no drop off. It’s going to be a very difficult game and play calling is what’s gonna win it. Hopefully sark doesn’t let the outcoaching bug hit again because we should have fucking won last year but I don’t expect it to be easy walking all over like we did Michigan

I was thinking about this trade the other day when shaking my head in disbelief about the plethora of LH options currently in our bullpen. Wasn't that long ago when we were all in on Britton because Tony Sipp was the only lefty in the pen. Instead of giving up Moran and a couple of farm arms, we had to trade Teoscar for Liriano to get another lefty. I guess it was worth it since he recorded an out in Game 7.

When I was 10, my uncle took me to the OU game. We lost, but I had a great time, and afterward he gave me $5 to spend on the Midway. It was a lot of money for the times - gas was $0.20 a gallon and Dr. Peppers were five cents and came in an eight-ounce bottle. He gave me the money in change, quarters for one pocket, and nickels and dimes for the other. He told me not to take more than one coin out at a time, and when I complained about so many coins, he said that it was because if I took a bill or even a handful of coins out, a man would approach me, show me a card trick or two, and then offer to bet he could make the Jack of Hearts jump out of the deck and spit cider in my ear. He told me that if I took that bet, I would be standing there with cider running down the side of my neck and people would be laughing at me for making a bet with a man from Oklahoma. I think he was probably correct, and I have always been leery of the Jack of Hearts in any setting or circumstance.

Yeah as I was typing it out I was thinking to myself, "you know, this ain't half bad". The emergence of Tillman is a big positive. I'm a big Pepi fan as well. Having a choice between who is most in-form between him, Balo, Sargent, and Wright is a far cry from where we used to be at FW. I kind of like Downs as well and could see him developing this year into a guy that can give you a good spark off the bench next summer. Biggest issues IMO are finding a #1 GK, someone to pair with Richards at CB, and depth behind our top two FBs. MF is probably where we're best and deepest, but getting the right combination of guys on the field in the right formation will be key.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
Ricky's one-hitter replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Blake started 34 games (also in 3 years), was all SWC twice, an AA and Outland trophy finalist, and was around the program quite a bit after the NFL. Finley was 2nd team all B12 one year and has been tangentially associated with Texas after his career. Not exactly a Longhorn legend. Additionally, (fuck) the Brocks spurned us as we wandered the desert with no hope of landing that caliber (in retrospect, lol) of trench player without those advantages. This is really about you and your exhausting belief that everyone who has ever attended Texas should hold it in the same esteem you do. They wont. -
Good lord that looks horrific. PN seems to have cleared up though. Thinking about a week in IM in October. Good time to go?

And I think Disney might have thought she was dead too with the ole "ScarJo, we aren't paying you btw. thnx". I actually thought of that drama when I saw Jurassic Rebirth in a "well, looks like it worked out for her that she got paid and didn't get blackballed for standing up to big studio hollywood-- I'd bet a goodly number of women not her would have been donezo"

It’s my older daughter’s birthday today. She’s 8, right about the same age as the girls in the Bubble Inn cabin at Camp Mystic. It’s got me all kinds of fucked up. Last night she was happily singing Taylor Swift and bouncing around the house and I kind of lost it and had to leave the room. I’m honestly not sure why I’m posting this. People all over this state are hurting bad today, including in my community. I’m going to celebrate my little girl and try to appreciate every second but it’s killing me thinking about what those other families are going through.

if i were one of the parents my price would be "all heads roll or we turn the state blue" podium barbie had to look down while trashing the nws - the regime is concerned

yeah pretty sure they knew going into the tour that it would be his last. 27 years is a good run. i know lots of fans thought his style never fit the band that well, i don't completely agree with that but he's far from my favorite pj drummer.

For anyone who buys James Avery jewelry or charms: James Avery Artisan Jewelry – founded in Kerrville, Texas – announced that it's committing $1 million to support the needs of the community and the road to recovery, focusing on food, shelter, mental health care and other critical needs that emerge. In addition, from now until Aug. 4, the company will donate 100% of the proceeds from its "Deep in the Heart of Texas" charm to relief efforts in Kerrville and surrounding communities. James Avery said the charm has always "celebrated the pride and resilience of our state" and now carries a deeper meaning. "To all those affected, we send our love, strength, and heartfelt prayers," the company wrote. "And to the first responders and neighbors who have stepped in with open hands and open hearts, we offer our deepest gratitude."

That Texas Monthly article made it sound like there might still be multiple family members involved. Actually looks like the Stacy family is no longer involved... https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/article/camp-mystic-survives-six-year-family-feud-4113020.php They're going to go after someone and the land will most likely get sold to cover what happens. https://www.campmystic.com/directors-staff/ I see direct family members part of leadership other than Dick and Tweety. I'm not clear but did Tweety pass, as well? The whole thing is a mess. Despite all the finger pointing, Dick died trying to save those girls.

Baseball Gods: We're gonna make you the best developers of pitchers in the game. Also Baseball Gods: Your team is not only going to experience frequent injuries, but your medical staff will further imperil those guys.

I think this is pretty close except I think Pepi is going to have a big year and will take the striker spot. Honestly, that is a pretty damn good lineup if they all actually play hard. Then you have Luna, Johnny (if he ever gets his shit together for the USMNT), Balo, and Musah on the bench.

I did want to mention a miracle of sorts amidst all the rescues that have already happened (I think sadly we all know our missing campers were long gone before we even knew to pray for them): the 1:30 am lightning/thunder. several campers spoke of this and counselors have too in various interviews. It was obviously close and super loud and woke all the campers up. And it was this loud noise that may have saved many lives as it appears unfortunately many were in harm’s way. I wish they all could have been spared, we all do. I just pray for everyone who lost someone in the floods this weekend. 🙏🏼❤️🩹💔

Yeah, according to the TM article on the 2011 lawsuit, the land is owned by one corporation and the camp operated by another that rents from the landowner corporation. That probably got even a bit more complex subsequent to that lawsuit, but there are some fairly wealthy entities that are going to be on the wrong end of this. At minimum, that land is hugely valuable.
