    Any Astros fans here? Let's talk expectations this season

    Hard for me to say since I was only able to watch about 2 games on TV last year. But .500 is a probably a good goal for this team and anything less than 90 losses would indicate progress. Sigh...

    I am dreading the Summer

    This. Chamber of Commerce weather in Houston this weekend. 72, a nice breeze, and around 50% humidity. The weather is absolutely intolerable for about 4-5 months but if you think this is hot then you really may want to consider another relocation.

    I have to work with a F'n aggy everyday

    My experience one on one with aggy has usually been pretty good. It's only when 2 or more of them have gathered that I start having problems. I guess their cult mentality starts kicking in. This said I have never carpooled with one. Could spell trouble.

    OT: Insomnia

    Yikes, I'm sure I'd need more than a couple Tylenol after knee replacement surgery! My neighbor had that a couple years ago and I heard the rehab can be pretty rough.

    OT: Insomnia

    Good deal! Looks like you're on track to come up with some concoction that works! You can play w/ the dose of Benadryl and figure out what does it for you.

    OT: Insomnia

    The active ingredient in the "PM" part of Tylenol PM is exactly the same as Benadryl. Diphenhydramine HCI 25 mg. Unless your husband needs the Tylenol for pain or fever reduction then he can accomplish the same thing with Benadryl (or Wal-Dryl which is the generic equivalent at Walgreens) at a...

    OT: Insomnia

    I take half a Benadryl every night. Go to bed, read a bit, and usually start nodding off about 20-30 minutes later. It takes the edge off a bit, and also if I wake up in the middle of the night it makes it easier to get right back to sleep). No side effects in the morning (if I take a whole one...

    OT: Being single at a kid's bday party

    Exactly how I felt before I had my own kid. Now I'm a a natural. Heh.

    I'm trying to care, but I don't...

    Strong and Mack Brown is like oil vs. vinegar. It's laughable to think that anyone thought we would NOT lose some recruits. Remind me not to get stuck in a foxhole with some of you guys. Geez.

    I'm trying to care, but I don't...

    You seem to feel that the days of Texas being able to recruit 4 and 5 stars are over. Why?

    I'm trying to care, but I don't...

    Amen. It's baffling to read all the hand-wringing up here about how Texas doesn't have enough talent. Been reading this garbage for years. Meanwhile teams like WVU, K-State, Okie State, Baylor, and TCU have been hitting us in the mouth. Is there anyone who will seriously argue than any of these...

    I'm trying to care, but I don't...

    Agree 100%. Can't get too worked up about this class. Mack and Strong are night and day different and so no surprise that some are going to walk away (especially when according to CBS Mack actually encouraged them to explore other opportunities). But you could not have put it better when you...

    I really like Strong, but...

    With all due respect, do we really have to rehash all of this? I mean, we just completed 6+ week gauntlet of this sort of analysis. I have no idea if Strong was the best hire, time will tell, but we are where we are so lets focus on today. I for one am excited about the future and the coming...

    Did Mack do it out of spite?

    First, invites were likely made weeks in advance. You don't "uninvite" them (for many obvious reasons) Second, from all that's been written I don't know how one could say that Mack didn't have every intent to coach in 2014. I too don't like how it all went down but I believe this particular...

    Love it. Exactly what's needed.

    UT's policy on buyouts?

    Yeah I understand it's a lot of money, and I understand that money doesn't solve all problems and that there are other issues at play, not the least of which are egos. But we are talking Texas Football, right? Again, I'm not necessarily arguing that we should pay that much for Chad Morris, or...

    UT's policy on buyouts?

    So the buyout for Chad Morris is $5.1M. If that is the only sticking point, why would Texas not pull the trigger on this? Money does you no good unless you spend it, correct? We are one of the very few athletic departments that operates in the black (and we operate waaayyy in the black). In...

    Whatchall think about 'Zona's OC?

    My first thought is is he good or is it RRod

    Uh oh on herman

    This is actually pretty startling, that we can't seem to poach coaches from other schools. There was a time that Mack was bringing in former DCs to be DL coaches, etc. I like Strong a lot but was expecting a strong surrounding staff to go with him. Certainly not time to hit the panic button...

    Post Mortem on Saban and Harbaugh

    This. If "Friend of Bevo" is angry today he and his buddies can look in the mirror. Why would a Saban or Harbaugh want to work in those conditions, where he's expected to glad hand and never knows who his boss is. Donors can give, and if they want to voice their opinion then they can stop...
