  1. Reminds me of seeing Paul McCartney a couple of years ago. He played Blackbird or Let it Be or some other mega anthem at MetLife and the entire stadium was a sea of cell phone lights. Afterward he said something like, "It's so amazing being on stage and seeing all of those lights in the darkness, it's like seeing thousands of stars in the night sky. And then I play a new song and it's like a black hole." And then he played a new song. Pretty great.
  2. The narrative I heard today on 84 was "Since this will be Texas' last game, won't Sark want to get Arch in?" They explained that Texas will be down by 21 in the first quarter, so Texas will need to put in Arch for the rest of the game. Count us out. Bring it on. Let Quinn rip.
  3. I think the reverse is also true. I don't think other schools in the SEC really see us as carrying the SEC banner. It's kind of a bad look for the conference that the new team came in and ran it (T'vondre was right). Texas is in it for Texas, and concurrently the SEC hasn't tried to embrace Texas as one of their own. As it should be.
  4. Did some internet research, here's a photo of you wearing that shirt. Not sure about your analysis.
  5. That whole targeting discussion drives me crazy. If it was targeting, then they missed the attempted decapitation of Bond a few plays earlier. If it wasn't, then they got them right. The two calls were both reviewed and the outcomes were consistent. Any notion that the Taafe call tarnished the outcome for one side is fucked. But the media loves an underdog and seems to relish piling on big bad Texas. Embrace the hate.
  6. I wish. That kid is a legend.
  7. I really hope this thread starts delivering the goods on updates and personal opinions on weather. Bonus if we start getting individual travel and ticket plans from various posters. "I'm planning to stay at the Doubletree in Mesquite, anybody have transportation tips?!?" etc is really powerful stuff on a football board.
  8. My worst was Guns n Roses at the old Texas Stadium in Dallas. They were playing on what was one of the most bizarre bills of all time -- The Smithereens, Ziggy Marley, Iggy Pop, GnR, and INXS. Made no sense and you could tell GnR was absolutely not interested in being there. I think they had to fulfill some contract obligation or something -- their tour was done and this was the add on show that came between them and taking a break. It started raining at the beginning of their set and they were all pissed, but Axl being the lead douchebag finished it up a few songs in by saying "Everything's bigger in Texas, so I guess you guys are the biggest faggots too," flipped us off, and then walked off the stage. What a chode. Wild how the crowd can love Iggy Pop for giving us the bird and then hate Axl so much for doing the same thing. A study in a crowd's ability to recognize a genuine badass from an entitled dipshit. Apparently GnR concurs that it was their worst show ever: https://www.a-4-d.com/t1373-1988-09-17-texas-stadium-irving-usa
  9. yeah I often listen to past audio on the texaslonghorns official site. The media player is trash but at least you can listen to Craig Way's calls of games for the past several years. Listened to him and Roger call yesterday's game from Auburn's first miss through the Makuba INT while at the gym today. Such a great listen.
  10. My wife texted “that Skattebo guy is a real douche.” I stand by her assessment.
  11. People on surly are pissed. I can tell you fans in the stands had a different reaction. We persevered and emerged victorious. Enjoy it! Onward! IMG_9713.mov
  12. Well whoever she’s banging must be giving her enough money to spend on airfare and game tickets, so I’m good
  13. She's a certified badass. She surprised me in 2005 with Rose Bowl tickets for me and my buddy. That game turned out alright, so I feel pretty good about tomorrow.
  14. Wife surprised me by sending me to the game tomorrow -- see you bastards in Atlanta!
  15. Damn. Was really expecting him to go with Texas. He would have been perfect as the next speed WR for Sark.
  16. I think of Ramonce and I think of Butch Hadnot. That guy was unstoppable.
  17. The firecrackers aren't available on Oahu anymore, but the large scale mortar launching fireworks have always been illegal. It makes no difference. People routinely spend more on NYE fireworks than on Christmas and just launch them from their neighborhood streets. It really is worth seeing if you ever get the chance. Hank needs to get some burnt orange mortars and let them fly.
  18. You're so fucked. Anyone who's ever been in Waikiki on NYE knows you aren't going to get any sleep. Long's used to sell rolls of 10,000 firecrackers on the shelves for NYE. The plus side is that you watch the game until 12, go for an afternoon surf session at Pops or Number 3's, take a late afternoon nap, and then watch the Spectrum replay that evening over take out from Siam Square's Thai. Or so I've heard.
