  1. Word, but this is where we are with this pitching staff currently. We are stuck acting like DK sucks to find something to worry about. This pitching staff is ridiculous.
  2. Hook'Em0608 replied to victory88's topic in Football
    Lot of "manning up" going on lately. Good problem to have.
  3. Also, it isn't confirmation bias. I've never wanted, requested, or even entertained you being banned. I think you give solid takes most of the time. However, you've been very vocal about criticizing football and basketball coaches, players, etc. Obviously, that comes with the risk of criticism.
  4. If calling out the site owner doesn't get you banned, why do you care what a single poster says?
  5. Don't worry, one pos rep given and one neg sent his way. Then I got bored. Sorry.
  6. Lack of self awareness right here. The guy with over 800 positive rep total is upset about some negs and somehow believes he's grown thicker skin.
  7. Hard pass, but username checks out.
  8. You know what you did, repent of your sins.
  9. They liked the OP.
  10. @TexOx and @Get ln My Van Explain yourselves. Are you OP's sock's or just retarded?
  11. I knew Altuve was gonna get him. He just missed those first 2 at bats.
  12. Good effort, you need to work on elevating though. It was hit hard enough. Or however this witchcraft works.
  13. Good at bat by Yuli, lots of pitches and a walk.
  14. Wrong, he cleared them!
  15. That's two balls just missed by Altuve today. Gurriel just missed one too. We are getting some good swings. Hopefully it pays off soon.
  16. I think he was just being super careful with those first 3 batters. I'm not sure he was really missing.
  17. That kid hits like a ton of bricks for his build.
  18. His performance is absolutely inconsistent. Don't mistake my tepid defense of him as some Westlake homer hero worship. I'm not in that group at all. I think Sam is very limited as a QB. I'm just saying he is no longer single handedly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. He is making just enough plays to win games when our defense plays well. I think that's the best we can hope for this season. Personally, I like the strategy we have employed since Maryland. Limit the game plan to low risk throws that give our playmakers a shot to make a play, trying to establish the run, and relying on our defense. Unless Sam can improve his down field passing accuracy (not likely this year if ever), that's probably our best chance to win as many games as we can this year to keep the momentum building. Maybe next year Rising, or one of the other pups, can give him a true battle for the starting job. Buechele is just very limited in this offense, although I think with a transfer to the right offense, he could be a decent starting QB.
  19. Hey, it's the other stupid ass thing about Texas fans. I can't refute what you are saying, so I'll call it aggy. That'll get me an internet win! Sam put the team in position to score in half our drives, That's a fact. 1st drive 11 plays 37 yds punt 2nd drive 11 plays 89 yds TD 3rd drive 13 plays 53 yds FG 4th drive 3 plays -13 yds punt 5th drive 4 plays 23 yds punt 6th drive 11 plays 57 yds missed FG 7th drive 6 plays 28 yds punt 8th drive 10 plays 36 yds End of Game Nothing spectacular by any means considering the opponent, but for context, the 2016 Atlanta Falcons scored on 52 percent of their drives. An all time NFL offense. It was a typical mediocre Texas offensive day.
  20. BOB thinks James Franklin called a good play last night.
  21. He led 4 drives out of 8 that field position indicates should be a scoring drive. Taking a knee and missing FG's are outside his control. Shitty passes aren't and we should have had more success obviously. However, he didn't play any better or worse yesterday than he had the 3 prior weeks.
  22. You're correct in why he is defended. I'm not even arguing the points you've made today, and despite what you think, I wasn't referring to you specifically. Except the really really want to be correct part. That's for sure you. I dig you man, you keep things interesting.
  23. In 8 drives, Sam led 4 that were scoring drives. One miss FG and another kneel down to close it out in scoring position aren't his fault. He is a mediocre passer, he has a history of bad decision making, and I admit I wanted Shane to start after Maryland. But he's played better football the last 4 weeks than at any point in his career. It's a weird time for this thread to take off like it has. Just shows how bad people really really want to be right on the internet. Both sides of the argument have gone off the rails with hyperbole, per usual. Which is why I love this website. It's not a negative, it's entertaining.
  24. This is a total fucking Bill Snyder game. I can't wait for that old fucker to retire. He's made Herman his bitch the entire 2nd half.
