Austin Regional Thread
Never seen anything like the end of the game. The class and respect shown to both sides was first class. The USA and the standing ovation for the AFA made me proud to be an American and a Texas fan. Watching the AFA guys take their hats off and stand at attention for the eyes was cool as well. 7 wins to go

The Beto Effect - How To Lose Elections and Influence Nothing
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/05/business/germany-russia-oil-gas-coal.html I work for a European company. Most of the Baltic countries and Western Europe reply on Russia for Oil and Gas. That money goes to Putin. Whether it came from Nordstream is immaterial. Europe depends on Russia for oil and gas. As far as production goes, the US was getting 1.8M barrels a day from federal leases in the Gulf of Mexico. Thatās gone. In 2021 we were importing 672,000 barrels a day from Russia. Why? Why import from Saudi Arabia and Mexico? We can do it here but we donāt. Stupid.

Name one piece of legislation that Beto had passed that wasnāt changing the name of a courthouse that benefitted the people of Texas? The only smart thing he did was marry in to a wealthy family. He couldnāt use his fake name to beat Ted Cruz, who is universally hated, and Greg Abbott who is also hated. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Even with his fake name, all the pandering, all the Hollywood money and the MSM media in his corner, he couldnāt win either election. Heās the democrats Clayton Williams. Biden is simple. Whatever he decides, do the opposite. Obama only picked him because he wanted the moderate white vote and knew Biden could deliver that. Biden was against the raid to kill OBL. He was the author of the crime bill that locked up more minorities. As President heās made some decisions that are killing Americans: First was his decision to halt oil and gas leases on federal land. That has had the biggest affect on the price of gas in the US. To try and dispel this, NPR wrote this fluff piece: https://www.npr.org/2022/01/28/1076281662/federal-judge-canceled-gulf-oil-and-gas-leases-climate-change Word trickery. A lease is the first step. Then the drilling permit. I donāt have the facts at hand to say whether Biden is outpacing trump in permits or not but I do know that zero onshore leases on federal lands have been awarded under Biden. It takes 140 days to get a federal drilling permit. Takes 2 days for a Texas drilling permit in private land. Biden did hold an offshore auction last year, but only after they were ordered by a federal judge to resume auctions. It may have been the ālargestā auction in terms of potential leases offered, but it wasnāt the largest in terms of leases awarded. Main reason people werenāt interested was the ridiculously high āsocial cost of carbonā at $51/ton as developed under Obama, reduced to $7 under Trump, and back to $51 under Biden. A federal judge recently issued an injunction preventing Biden admin from using the $51. They will tell you that there are 9000 leases available to drill on. Again, word trickery. If there was oil available the oil companies would drill. Now Biden to save face is claiming to renew leases on federal lands. Itās about 20% of the acreage originally planned, and they are raising the royalty from 12.5% to 19%. summary: step in right direction, small acreage, less profitable for drillers. Biden sold out to the environmentalists and this is the result. Once you raise the cost of fuel, all good go up. If green was sustainable and we could use it, donāt you think we would? Biden could reverse this and it would take 6-8 months for production to come back and the prices to drop. He canāt do that because of his base. So he throws out fluff like āTapping the federal reserveā. It does nothing. The US consumes 17M barrels a day. 1M isnāt shit. Trump tried to buy out the state of Texas in 2020 to replenish our reserve and was blocked by Chuck Schumer and the democrats in congress https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2020/03/13/trump-oil-strategic-reserve/ That would have been at $1 a barrel. When Biden first hit the reserve it was done at an auction and wasnāt beneficial to anyone. Only 2 companies bid and it was for 14M barrels, or almost 1 day of consumption. The cost was $2.50 a barrel and companies had to replace 10% back. It was bullshit. Biden allowed the Nord Stream 2 online. This gave Putin the power and $$$ he needed to invade Ukraine. Eastern and Western Europe were told not to do it. They did. Now where are they? They are at the mercy of a madman who is killing the innocent people in Ukraine. If Biden would repeal his executive order, we could strangle Putin and end the war in Ukraine. He wonāt. That would also stop OPEC from being the cartel they are. I wonāt even get into the southern border. Does this suffice?

Aggie is a paper Tiger. They didnāt win 40 games. No way with an RPI of 21 they should be hosting. Based on that the highest RPI school who didnāt get to host should be sent to CS.

Not at all. I find it funny that I simply stated my opinion, which will be fact in November, and the roaches came out of the closet to flip me off. I thought liberals preach tolerance? I was wrong. Oh well, have a great Memorial Day

The fact that you defend this is idiot who canāt beat Abbott is hilarious. With the shit show of a job that Joe Biden has done in 17 months, it going to be hard for any democrat to win, let alone an Irish guy who thinks by using a Mexican nickname will help him politically. I would be happy to wager a bet that Beto loses to a Governor in a wheelchair.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2023: Strippers, Monkeys, and 5-Stars
The standards from the 80ās when I graduated were much easier than today. You have to be Top 6% and at least a 34 on the ACT to get in. My buddyās son was Top 10% and got a 34. Wasnāt good enough to get in but it got him a scholarship to A&M. Those were Rice and Ivy League standards when I was in HS.
