Time for some new PJ's?
Tell him to go the hell and be done with it. Kobe didn't make 4 mil in 1999.

Nobody but Arch is worth 4 million.

Baseball: No. 1 Texas vs. No. 8 Auburn Game Thread (Thursday)
My father was on an air craft carrier in the eastern Mediterranean then. They readied B1 nuclear jets for Israel and Russia. They kept yelling "First strike. We'll win," as they got ready.

Baseball: No. 1 Texas vs. No. 8 Auburn Game Thread (Thursday)
Good Friday. Closest The US ever came to nuclear war. 20 October 1973. I was one year old. Kissinger was in Moscow negotiating with the Soviets about the Yom Kippur War. Nixon was back in Washington dealing with Watergate. He gave Kissinger full presidential powers. General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev told Kissinger the Soviets were going send troops into Israel. Kissinger invented the statement ,"We'll blow you back to the stone age." Soviets were trying to play domestic troubles against Henry. Kissinger went back to his room and ordered Defcon 3, which meant nuclear weapons ready. Steel balls. Soviets backed down.

Bond lawsuit
At the risk of being knocked again by Matthew, reminds me of Henry Kissinger telling his staff in an October 1976 classified meeting about the death Mao that it didn't matter who won the election or what the Soviets and Chinese did, there was no way they could generate the wealth to compete with US in the long run.

Bond lawsuit
Hopefully he has good lawyers and he's confident about his chances. There are quite a few jacklegs out there, both as prosecutors and defense attorneys. Judges too. Take this House case. No chance the NIL third party "fair value" part withstands judicial scrutiny. There's no precedent for "fair value" in history. The market is by definition "fair value." Given it's northern California, I guess it's understandable the judge doesn't quite get that. Can't withstand the Fifth Circuit, to say nothing of the Supreme Court.

"Texas A&M looks really good all of the sudden. Say what you want, but that series is going to be a tough one." Dang Aggies.

Defensive Player Availability (Wednesday AM)
I remember watching the evening news on 10 November 1989. I was a freshman at Texas then, 17 years old. It was the day after the Berlin Wall fell. Reporters were in the oval office talking to President Bush and Secretary of State James Baker. The reporters were trying to get them to act excited and gloat over winning the Cold War. Bush and Baker wouldn't even raise an eyebrow. They just excoriated Bush for not showing more "emotion." At the time, I knew he couldn't do it and wondered what they were trying to accomplish. The Soviets still had nuclear weapons and it was an extremely volatile time. News people knew the deal, but they pushed just get a "story." Glad that's not happening now.

I might be done as a Mavs fan
Pansies in the draft don't work out. Kobe wanted to work out in 1996 when he was 17. Going up against guys who were 22 and even all pros. 17 damn years old and killing all pros in work-outs. In front of Jerry West. Wanted to land with the the Lakers. Boy made it happen. Jerry West was the greatest talent evaluator in the history of the NBA. You can't find that today.

Steve Sarkisian Media Availability (Monday AM)
Don't like hearing that Sark talks friendly with Kirby. He dissed you after both losses this past season. Said Texas tried to "cheat" in the first game, and then blamed Sankey and "schedule" for Georgia's problems after the SEC title game. You can't take that kind of crap. We out played and out hit them in the SEC title game, but our kicker lost us the game. He steps up to the mic and blames Sankey for his nonsense. Why would Sark take that?

By the way, I blame Cuban for that. He turned them all into a bunch whiners like him.

I might be done as a Mavs fan
I'm a state of Texas guy. I'll support any and all things from our state. I've gone all over and dealt with people from all over, but I'll take Texas people as the best, That said, can't stand Mavs fans. They are the dumbest basketball fans I've ever come across.

NCAA Transfer Portal Entrant Thread (Thursday AM)
Wonder if Nagy will tell Venables they need to stop overpaying Damonic Williams and R Mason Thomas so they can get some guys on offense, to say nothing of cutting lose an overpaid WR who never manages to play in games.

I'd rather watch sand drain than the current NBA. Many sports fans agree with we. Worst ratings in years.
