  1. I'm not gonna get too excited just yet. They started last year 6-2, and then stunk it up most of the year.
  2. CNN settles with US Navy veteran after defamation verdict | CNN Business So you don't watch CNN either, right?
  3. Best bracket I’ve picked in a long time. 14 of 16 in the sweet 16, 7 of 8 in the elite 8, 3 of 4 in the final four, and a correct final, both teams. If Iowa St had cooperated I would’ve had a perfect bracket from the sweet 16 on. I wouldn’t have minded Houston pulling it off, but I won a little cash in my bracket group.
  4. heck yeah! what a season!
  5. 80-90% of Texas high school coaches will never sniff either of these. What's your point?
  6. nah, can't get past the boy cheerleaders. I do like College Station, though!
  7. same on all this. but if Florida can find a way to win it I'll end up with a little spending money from my bracket group.
  8. And I’m pointing out that I employ the same logic as most Aggie fans just did.
  9. That’s not how it works. Just like how if Beard went to college station he’d be embraced there, but Aggy collectively lost its mind when Texas ended up with their baseball coach.
  10. 1. Don’t like the idea of an ex-horn going to their biggest rival. 2. as @TxHoops said, he’s one of the best coaches in the country, giving them a better chance to beat the horns.
  11. Pitching was excellent the last two days, thankfully. Can’t score two runs in two games and normally expect one win, much less two.
  12. Was hoping beard didn’t go to aggy.
  13. second straight 1-0 win! Leiter gives them 5 scoreless 1-hit innings, and the bullpen combined to give up 2 hits over 4 to close out the win! The offense better pick it up, but the pitchers, and even the bullpen have been solid so far this year.
  14. Tough when you're putting a lot of hope in a bunch of guys coming off major injuries or with almost no experience in the bigs. Eovaldi is the only starter they have in the rotation right now that has both experience and fairly reasonable health over the last two seasons.
  15. Kumar Rocker got Rocked. And he did most of spring training as well. He may still develop into a big league starter, but he's not ready yet. Not sure why Dunning isn't in that 5th spot until some people come back from injury. He's been basically a .500 pitcher for the last 4 years with the rangers, and is a good inning eater.
  16. neither has made it yet, but they're both favored.
  17. couple hundred across the nation. but Harris county is one of the biggest agencies in the country. While 4 is abnormally high, it's far from unbelievable, especially with the consideration of copycat suicides, which is fairly common. Awhile back a friend on facebook posted a picture of some guys that graduated a couple of years ahead of me at HJ. 10-12 years ago all three shot themselves within a couple of years of each other. In 2024 Harris County lost 4 officers in the line of duty. In 2022 they lost 5 in the line of duty. I guess 4 to suicide doesn't seem that farfetched.
  18. A couple hundred officers commit suicide a year. The job is getting worse and those numbers are going up. HCSO has 4200 employees. I’d be a lot more suspicious if they had 400 employees.
  19. 7/8 correct in sweet 16 matchups isn’t too shabby for me
  20. maybe i'm wrong, but it just seems like a $100k investment into post season play doesn't sound like much when you're talking about a university the size of lamar. Both teams are trending up, and even a little extra exposure could go a long way.
  21. you're probably right. that's as disingenuous as someone in their 50s that looks like they're in their 50s claiming they look 20 years younger
  22. To be fair, most republicans want the dems to be more like Trump. Her calling him that is the most Trump-like thing she's done while in office.
  23. I'll never understand how the judge of the district court of columbia can block a nationwide deportation program and demand that the president give him flight information on deportations. Stuff like this happens all the time. Some nobody circuit judge issues a ban or block or restriction on some policy the president is trying to implement and it's somehow valid? Now, that having been said, a lot of the things Trump is doing he's either ignoring previous case law, making up rules as he goes, or creatively interpreting previous laws and statutes to fit his needs, which leaves him vulnerable for a lot of it to be overturned. But I still don't understand how Joe Blow in District Court Irrelevant has the power to make rulings that stop the president from doing things.
