that might have been spouse number one. It's been a long time though. It was wife number two that he was eating with. I didn't even realize they were divorced. No wonder he looked like shit sitting there.

Not on topic, but I saw Jeff Bagwell at Buffalo Grill yesterday. He looks like hell. But his wife looks just as hot as the day she walked down the aisle at St. Michael. Two Houston "legends" that absolutely outkicked their coverage, Bagwell and Ray Childress.

- Surly kids who can't get into UT
Reporting back after two years. My kid is a Longhorn at heart, but she is very happy at A&M. She was initially disappointed getting CAP'd, but Texas didn't offer what she wanted to do as a career anyway (veterinary medicine). That helped smoothed things over back in Spring 2023. I asked her to go live her own dream - that she didn't need to go to Texas for me - and she has never looked back. She turned down some great schools to stay in state, but it really has been a great fit and as long as I continue to own Thanksgiving weekend, all is well. Not getting into UT Austin isn't the end of the world.- 2025 Celebrity Death Pool

I see it differently. I don’t think it was about intangibles or leadership at all. Money tends to explain decisions far better than character assessments these days. Texas seemed comfortable with Wisner until the money conversation changed. Once he demanded more, the calculus shifted to “we can replace this skill set,” especially if the staff believed they could find a better back - more bang for the buck. That doesn’t mean Wisner lacked leadership—it means he became economically expendable.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - I'm With Stupid

James Ransone. Suicide. Fucking terrible.- 2025 CFP First Round - The "U" @ aggy
Went to the Aggie game yesterday with my kid and was struck by how different A&M students behave. They’re not rabid in the least (loud is not the equivalent of rabid). The expectation bar is shockingly low. This era of Aggie students isn’t drinking the same Kool-Aid the older generations did. They sip it. They’re definitely not aggieholics. They said "when" before the Kool-Aid started to flow. Maybe it’s the seven-days-a-week firehose of college football now, or just the amount of information you can explore online, but they seem to understand exactly where they are in the big picture—way more than even the Aggies who were in school as recently as the Big 12 exit. The loss was disappointing, sure, but treated like an inevitability. On the ramp leaving Pyle Field, I actually heard one student tell another, “That’s just how it goes for us.” Bottom line. A&M is stuck in a weird tug-of-war: the “old” traditions (yell leaders, hand signals, the whole Aggie liturgy) are the brand, but they don’t reliably hook the student body they have now. So the school leans hard into newer game-day material—music, hype cues, big-screen programming—to manufacture energy the traditional stuff used to generate on its own. The result is an identity mismatch: traditions still run the script, but they’re being propped up by modern stadium theater because a generous share of their students aren’t there to be Aggies first—they’re there for a degree, a program fit, or because another door didn’t open. That’s how you end up with “2%ers” who don’t wave towels… or need the instructions printed on them to know what yell to do.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - I'm With Stupid

Never between, but always there after. It was our decompression tank. I think a great deal of of our success in the 80s and 90s could be attributed to the amount of time we spent together outside of work. It was genuinely a family. We may have been O&O by Disney/Cap Cities, but it seemed like a small world.- 2025 Celebrity Death Pool
