NFL Week 7
Kittle was celebrating a bit too hardcore for my liking. Making a 2 score game into a 1 score game and acting like he'd taken them back to the super bowl. Very satisfying that they promptly give up 16 unanswered after that.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
Good point. What was he supposed to learn from this game? That losing efforts are acceptable and not a bad thing as long as we can make up a moral victory for it? Getting your ass kicked and playing like shit aren't things you should be preparing for in case they come again. They shouldn't be happening at all or you should be preparing to ride bench.

Concerts you are attending
Headed to Parker McCollum at the Moody here in a bit. Excited to see the new arena finally. Not even much of a country guy, but I'm expecting there to be tons of talent there. And Parker's alright, I can stand his songs at least. Hearing his stories of being a Texas kid that headed to Austin to become an artist made me more of a fan.

The Handmaid’s Tale - Season 5
This show keeps teasing me on the Hulu screen, and I keep passing it up. Guess I'm in the majority (on this thread) now. I watched the first episode and it was about as satisfying as a big wet fart. Building up the wife to be the new villain. June is broken and can't accept getting away and NEEDS to go back to the fight and set up another season of her undercover again? And of course ended with yet another close up of her face. Once I saw the face shot I figured they were just poking at us with that and letting us know they weren't changing for shit. Just a retread of past seasons. Not sure I'll ever get around to episode 2.

Surly Boxing Thread
Definitely a huge let down, and both sides are pointing the finger. They failed boxing and nobody should buy that bullshit fight. Just like Fury fighting that other British Bum for a 3rd time. They wouldn't do these brazen cash grabs if people would stop supporting it.

2022 ALCS Yankees vs Astros
But but, the Bregman HR wasn't even hit well, and was actually a good pitch if you think about it. Ump gives you away and low? Throw high and inside to a guy that's been putting playoff baseballs into the Crawford Boxes for half a decade. If it wasn't for the one swing Severino would've been dominant!

2022 San Antonio Spurs Offseason Thread -- We're Young, Scrappy, and Hungry
Got an email from the fan club yesterday about $20 opening night tickets (Manu's jersey being hung on the rafters!)...... I'm kinda excited for the season and to see how much Devin and Keldon develop, and Sochan actually starting... but the $20 ticket email is a rough reminder, we're gonna f'ing suck and they will be struggling to give away tickets. Don't care, got mine for Moody in the spring anyway.

Austin FC
Fuck yeah!! What a shit performance for most of the team, but Stuver let his nuts hang when it mattered most.

Austin FC
Well damn, really glad I didn't make a $100 last second decision to go. If it was August I might be a lot more confident for us scoring 3 in 75 minutes. Nice to see Finlay get a few weeks off and now get put in, probably in much less form when he was playing well for us in the middle of the season. What was the point of bringing Rigoni in as an automatic starter then? He should've sat his ass on the bench when he got here.

Hey PK -- What would you say you do here?
Won't pick on them too much until they break again. I'm still happy with this defense. Aside from the "keep everything in front and make the offense execute" angle of the defense, there's also the factor that people don't mention as much..... The more you plays you run, the better change our defense is going to make a big play themselves. An INT, a forced fumble, etc. If OK state can't handle our D line, we'll see big plays next week. It might be an oversight, but I want to see Sanders prove it. I remember seeing him two years ago and thinking how much of a fraud he was. Obvs he's older and in the system now, but make him prove he can make a 2nd or 3rd read.

Vivid Dreams
One thing that bothers me is my inability to sleep on my back if I put the pillow pressure directly on the back of my head, where my head connects to my neck, right under where the skull softens up back there. I've also though maybe it's that the blood is pooling in that area, but it gives some gnarly nightmares if I fall asleep that way. Started out of nowhere in my mid-20s, and still affects just about every time I accidentally fall asleep that way a decade later. I became a side sleeper or a back sleeper where my head is turned at least 45 degrees to a side. I had two dreams where I literally woke up and got to work immediately started coaching myself to forget whatever I just dreamt and not think about it too much, because I know what causes it (the sleeping position), and that position activates some of the darkest things my imagination has ever come up with. Luckily I don't remember them, I just remember waking up terrified twice, one of them definitely screaming. Definitely had sleep paralysis a few times in that position too. I do remember one dream where I fell asleep with the back of my head on my couch armrest and it triggered a dream with my grandma in it a few years after she passed away. We were just chillin in her living room but she was there and it felt so real but instead of being happy to see her I remembered she was dead and started crying. I blame the sleeping position on that pain feeling so vivid. Certainly just as vivid as when I was at her funeral, but the despair and pain came back out of nowhere that night. I feel like if I would've had the dream while sleeping in a different position the feelings of pain/sadness wouldn't have hit at all, maybe would've just had good memories.

I thought this week was a good episode. Enjoyed.

Texas vs tech - 2:30pm on ESPN
Can't wait til an actual competent coaching staff smacks you in the fucking mouth for trying to go for 8 4th downs in a single game and boat races you by 28 at the half because you can't be a dumbass against all big 12 teams. Let another coaching staff find out your QB is basically Hudson Card plus 30 pounds. Just wait!

Texas vs tech - 2:30pm on ESPN
I know this is loser talk but I'm going to say it anyway because I'm still pissed. Fuck you you cocksucker. The only things running through Lubbock require a condom to stop. Beating Texas is the ONLY thing that matters to your fans. After you lose to K state on Saturday and your stadium goes back to 60% full, it will hit you that mediocrity (but beat Texas) is a damn good target for Tech, and always will be. You won your super bowl, but as the longhorns know, playing your super bowl in front of a sold-out home crowd is a nice advantage to have for a week. Your 3* will show 5* hustle for a game. Get back on the road and prove you're not the definition of mediocre then come talk to me.

Media/$9.95-er postgame analysis articles (Week 4)
Bingo. Not that I'm pining for the Pre-PK days.... but sure seemed like we could have used a "star" or whatever player is a hybrid LB/S like BJ Foster was. Somebody we can bring down to the middle of the field to help stop slants and TEs over the middle. 2 high and soft corner coverage was just giving slants and 9-yard stops to that QB over and over again. Wtf.

Texas vs tech - 2:30pm on ESPN
I noticed this yesterday. Keilan was a big part of the first drive, but apparently we had absolutely no interest in letting him, or Bijan, test the off-tackle runs or outside zone after that. Swing passes, anything.

2022 NBA Offseason Thread — Trades, Free Agency, Firings, Sacramento doing dumb things, etc
- Texas O-line talk
The work JT did on that double team was beautiful. Those two executed that to perfection.- Atlanta FX
I felt like episode 1 required a lot more thinking than I was ready to do. The surreal parts got weird quick, especially the parking garage thing...... but I let episode 2 start without a break and I thought that one was great. They were both solid, but 2 had a lot more to say directly, and a lot more acting time and character development for Glover. Oh, and shoutout to Tracy.- DeMarvion Overshown: An Amazing Person On and Off The Field
DMO ftw .- Game Day Experience 2022
I do think that the experience is improving. Fans are showing up, getting louder. The student section is a far cry from a few years ago when they were struggling to put students in the south end bleachers. They have been bringing it. I actually do like some of the corny produced shit like the AC/DC thunderstruck intro on the big screen. Didn't even mind the manufactured Journey moment under the lights. It feels like we're all there together. At the same time, not nearly enough Texas Fight chants over the 2 games I've been, and not nearly enough Longhorn Band. I think the mix can level out juuuuust a bit to get it where we want it. Because 1 Texas fight chant during a home game is not enough.- The movie you just watched
Pearl. Very solid, really enjoyed. Never been a huge horror fan, but I like the style that Ti West does them in with both 'X' and Pearl. I could do without the constant unsettling imagery, but I get the point. Fun ride.- Roadkill vs trampling longhorns LHN 7 PM
It didn't "take" NFL caliber plays to beat UTSA, we beat them with the talent we have. I also give a lot of credit to their QB, who started college in 2017 and graduated a year and a half ago. I'm assuming he took an extra COVID year or something because last year he was all conference as a redshirt Sr. It took UTSA having a 23-year old returning super super senior all-conference QB just to keep it within 21.- Roadkill vs trampling longhorns LHN 7 PM
Yep and it was pissing me off in the first half that we couldn't get to him. That dude was completing every pass on the route tree that is within 20 yards. On the move, doesn't matter, he was on the mark. That Overshown sack was so damn satisfying to finally get til they threw the flag. - Texas O-line talk
