I wondered about that but the races I've seen have been a straightline. Not sure there is advantage to an inside post.

I'm good with this horse if everyone else it. Z9 seems like it has some value.

I keep seeing there will be a drop soon but i think that might require a lot of luck to get one there.

I'm also in if we can keep my share under $100. I'm not sure I have the time to get good at it, but it is interesting af.

I can't believe it's been that long but I was really down as a fan at the time of the transfer and thinking we were always going to be close but unlikely to be champions. If the transfer changed Elliot, I'm glad it happened. I wish no ill will on Sun, I'm not plugged in but the whole thing sounds like a helicopter parent move.

Kansas is Hopeless...
When that offense is run well with precision, it's a beautiful thing. It's not bad even when sloppy, but a disciplined high school team running it with precision is fun to watch, as is the triple option. The triple option just demands much more precision.

Kansas is Hopeless...
Here are my thoughts on the Triple Option. The linebackers and safeties are just too fast in today's game and a lot of the B12 teams will stop it BUT it will give them fits and KU will be in most games in the 4th quarter. So, if KU goes that route, they probably become a 5-7 win team versus a 1-2 win team. You upset a Texas or OU once every 8-10 years and aside from those two, you win a game or even 3 you're not supposed to every year. If you understand your ceiling and are ok with that, have at it. If I were a KU fan, I would want to rebuild more like Iowa State who competes at a higher level. It's a tough road, but you can be just as good as anyone else in the Big 12 not named OU or Texas. If OU or Texas is down, you may get in the B12 championship. That may be exciting to you and the average KU fan. For me, I would give competing at a higher level a shot before I conceded to the triple option.

Formerly DT: COVID-19 - Featuring Lots of Politics, now CR because political talk not going away
Definitely uneven distribution. I'm in DC with no health issues and they are saying it will be at least mid April. Wife who has health issues was fully vaccinated in February. I'm waiting my turn but it's annoying hearing people in other states who seem to be able to get a vaccine on demand

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
Wife to son: How did you do in Biology today? Son: I think I did alright. Wife: I know, it's the vein of your existence. Me: The what of his existence?? Wife: Vein! Is that not right? I was laughing too hard to respond further.

What's the range of real temperatures you have experienced in your life?
-22 in Lake Louise, Alberta. I was snow skiing and moisture in my eyelashes would freeze inside my goggles. 116 a couple of times in DFW area. The most memorable heat for me was Six Flags a couple of years ago when it was 112 or so. It took me a few days to recover from that. Never again.

Texas AD Chris Del Conte
This is interesting thought. If I remember correctly, Dodds said the original idea was to create a platform to get more of the tier two sports publicized and he originally approached the A&M AD about doing it together and they declined. He didn't think it would make that much money but ESPN eventually came and threw money bags at us and the Longhorn network came to be. You would think there could have been some happy medium where we forgo some portion of the $20mm and make some content that people may want to watch. Maybe they should consider treating it more as a marketing tool and less like a revenue source. Probably too far down the road now.

Does it give anyone else pause that Randolph Duke is working on a longform piece? Does Surly have the bandwidth?
