Texas basketball 2020-21: Not even Shaka can fuck this up...right?
The most consistent thing about this team is fucking up in the second half.

2021 Houston Texans offseason thread
Watson’s camp is using Adam Schefter as their outlet, go read what Schefter has had to say about this. I lay no blame at Watson’s feet but there’s no smear campaign.

CFB Salaries for Head Coaches & Asst Coaches
We should not guarantee anyone anything beyond three years for HC, assistants fewer. Unless it was Saban or Meyer, who guarantees success in return.

Also - pretty pumped about Wentz to the Colts. He’s... not good.

But that was O’Brien, and Easterby and Cal fired him? Not defending, just applying logic - seems like a disconnect there.

I don’t blame him at all for bailing on Tom’s ship, and I wouldn’t blame him for wanting back in now.

Urban Meyer to Jacksonville Jaguars
Urban taught Tom Herman the “hire your questionable friend” move, but he didn’t teach him the ole “terminate you’re friends if literally everyone hates them“ move.

Jimbo 2022: Balls To The Face
What I enjoy about Perroni’s comments is that if it’s “this guys an ag and anyone who disagrees can kiss my ass AND suck my dick!” then they’re in the hunt, but if it’s simply “still like”, they’re fucked.

NextGen Consoles: PS-5 and XBox X
Logged into Amazon today to check Xbox Series X availability, like I do every day, and it said “$499.99 PRIME”. Mine arrives on Tuesday. Texted my buddy before I was even done checking out and he said the checkout had already gone to the dog-based error screen.

The Gun Owner’s thread
If I have read the right stuff, there’s a big difference between the situations surrounding Remington and Colt over the past 12 months. When Remington went bankrupt in 2014 or whenever and sold to the PE group that just bankrupted them for the second go around, they were losing money on each round they made. Think about that. Crazy inefficiency. In their latest bankruptcy, it is my understanding that the PE group essentially sucked all the cash out of the business and made enough money in that way to declare the bankruptcy and sell at a practical loss, and still come out financially ahead. It is very possible that Colt has been operating under Remington’s original problematic circumstance. If you lose money on every item you sell, and the market picks up and you start selling a lot, it actually accelerates your loss in a market where you should be making a ton of money. No idea if that is the case but it does bottle the mind a little bit to think that they went broke in this market.

2020-21 Houston Rockets: Luv Ya Blue?
Fine offensive quarter for sure, but return to much better D. Jimmy Buckets just willing them on at the end there. He’s impressive. Love the Heats unis and court.

Urban Meyer to Jacksonville Jaguars
Was on the first train to leave the “Hire Urban” station and would’ve been pumped to hire him, but you do it knowing it comes with guaranteed headaches.

Wow. Airball. My apathy has never been so high.

Caden Sterns
Is it just me or does anyone else not give a fuck what happened under previous coaches? I’m excited for all returners under competent management, Sterns especially, I think.
-
Caden Sterns
Yes. Already above the average career of an NFL player and appears to be positioned to continue playing.

Britt Reid
Not his first go around with substance abuse. Very sad, he had such immense opportunity provided him in his life. But fuck him, please let these kids make very full recoveries.
