This is why every man needs an offset smoker and a brisket every Saturday during cfb season. Get the fire going before your wife wakes up. "Oh no, I really want to go to the 6 year old's birthday party, but I can't leave the fire unattended!"

Or just man up and tell the wife to leave you alone for the next four months. 
 

I get 95% of my weekend work done the rest of the year.

    Texas is going to field the best team it's had since 2008 in the upcoming season. They will be relevant in the playoff discussion, beat Bama in Tuscaloosa, and win the conference. Take off your protec

I've gotten most of my weekend shit done during Longhorn football games for the past 12+ years because I've been either too nervous or too pissed to just sit and watch the games. Lotta nervous energy. I'm really hoping for some nice old fashioned ass kicking this fall so I can laze around, drink, and watch the game in peace. Bonus will be not terrifying my pets and children when I scream at the television.

I trade multiple things throughout the year for a Vegas CFB weekend with my buddies and being able to watch games all day with my buddies when Texas is away somewhere. This is the right strategy.

The right strategy is to marry someone who demands we go to games in person and all in-season gatherings at the home only involve fellow Horns. [emoji869] My currency is foot massages through the season though.

I am a bit jealous of the way the Ohio branch of my family can go into games against the Indianas and Illinoises of the world completely unconcerned. It would be nice to get back to that.

This is me. My dog doesn’t even want to come in the room if I’m watching the Horns. He can sense my nervous energy even if I’m not yelling at the tv. My 3 year old just laughs at me

Remember what that was like? It is hard not to take it for granted when it is happening. It’s one of the things I miss the most. Give me 5-6 downright asswhippings against teams Texas should always be beating. Christ. 

I'd settle for a HC who doesn't make WTF decisions in fucking near every game we play. Well, plus bending the rules as others do... e.g. the injury play to get a few minutes to regroup and discuss options without burning a time out. It woulda been perfect for MensaTom to reply to any of the LSU fake injuries by having a WR go sweep motion, fall down and grab his leg when the D alignment made our playcall wrong. Gander sauce and all that...

I remember walking out of the loss to Iowa State in 2010 and the crowd was just in shock, dumbfounded. We all took for granted games like that were not even supposed to be close for so long. Little did we know that was the beginning of the end.

I take it as a genuine compliment. Sark has mentioned before that he and Lane are buddies and he has  fond memories of them both getting their asses chewed out together by Saban.

And they both served together under Pete Carroll at USC. He may rib Sark here and there, but I think it’s respectful banter between two old friends. When Lane remarks about Jimbo, on the other hand, he’s intentionally talking down to an assclown.

You post all of this as though it is new and controversial. This is our collective view. Always has been. Always will be. Stated by numerous posters in numerous threads all over this site. 

A really good Saturday in the fall will be watching 15 SEC teams losing embarrassingly while Texas puts up a W. 

What I wouldn't give for aggy to have a winless season.

This was my thought as well. Sports cars aren’t made for OL.  I’m 6’2”, 195#  and I felt really cramped in an older Porsche.

Urus is basically an Audi Q7 in a party suit...he will fit fine.

Yep

since Audi owns Lamborghini, makes sense.

hopefully the OL will own everybody this year on and off the field.

Having a Q7 and a neighbor that has the Urus about the only thing that is similar IMO when looking at them side by side is they are small SUVs with 4 doors and 4 tires. Sure there are similarities as far as Frame and technology.

2 things. So they are they are the exact same size. Illustrating the point that Majors would fit.

Calling a 5000lb 3 row suv small is hilarious

It is small compared to a Tahoe, Expedition, etc. but point taken on Majors fitting inside either one.

In his defense, the jack offs in their pickups that dont haul shit, but have manlet steps do make the Q7 or Atlas seem kind of normal sized in comparison.

have you seen the new Honda pilot???

Don’t worry, the season itself puts most of us over the edge.

Ugly. Now the 2024 Lexus GX... 

So how does the Lambo deal work? Do they throw in all the tens of thousands of dollars on repairs it needs after it falls apart in 10,000 miles?

That's easy. Just like you have to do with Jaguars: You buy two at a time--one to drive while the other's in the shop.

I take it you might enjoy more talk about Charleston, SC? Maybe drive your SUV there on a road trip, eh?

I'm just saying Lambo makes stuff that larger people can comfortably drive now, not saying the Urus is a badge engineered Q7, they are for different kinds of drivers. However they do share the same basic platform, Lamborghini didn't create a bespoke SUV chassis. With all that said, Jake isn't exactly the biggest of the Frontline beef, he could probably be fine in an Aventador or something as well.

Doesn't matter. He'll be in the film room all season, car won't get to 1,000. We win the Big 12 and show out in the playoffs, then he trades it in for a DBX707 when he and 3 of his peers get taken in the 1st round. Don't be a pussy.
