This made me laugh out loud this morning. Of course, emotionally I'm still 14.

We bought a house for my MIL after she moved here from Nam last year and the rate is around 7%. Just doing some quick googling I see some places showing rates in the 3.5-4.5% range online and when I called the broker we used he said everything is still up at 6.5%.

Those of you in the business does this seem consistent?

House was roughly $300k, we've been paying $3400/mo all in on the note/insurance/taxes and we co-signed with her. I believe the note has around $270k atm.

SIAP. This is good news. Let’s how the team does in Brooklyn.

Sorry, don't recall his handle.

Wanted to see if you are going to be open the 29th, Friday?

Some of the family want to stop by.

Anyone applied lately? Curious what the wait times currently are, especially if in Houston.

Is the best method the moon ball thrown high in the air dropping out in front so the WR can adjust easily? Seems to take a long time to get there and is more subject to elements.

Or, something with more heat and a lower trajectory. To me, QE is super accurate until he starts with the moon ball.

Who’s the deep ball guru?

If Texas makes the national championship game, that's three (if you live in Austin) or else four games.

I 'd love to, but there's no way I could afford it. Maybe one game, if that. (dont live in Austin)

Does anyone hear plan on attending all four if that happens to be the case?

Sorry this just cracked me up! Perfect gif usage 😂😂😂

Against the Chiefs. Finally. Hope he does well.

KENTUCKY PASS OFFENSE vs TEXAS PASS DEFENSE

Simply put, Kentucky’s pass offense has been pretty bad all year. It ranks second-to-last in the SEC, ahead of only Oklahoma (haha!). There was some optimism coming into the season because there are some talented individual components on the roster, including former 5-star QB Brock Vandagriff, but things have never come together. Vandagriff wasn’t great, but wasn’t necessarily awful at times either, yet the coaches pulled him for Gavin Wimsatt for a stretch and there have been some sightings of freshman Cutter Boley recently Vandagiff should start again this weekend but he comes in with a 122.6 passer rating. Dane Key is the guy to watch in the passing game. He’ll likely be in the NFL next year or on someone else’s roster. Barion Brown is an explosive straight line runner but not a polished receiver in terms of route running and the nuances of the position.

Edge – Texas ****

KENTUCKY RUN OFFENSE vs TEXAS RUN DEFENSE

For the first time in a long time, Kentucky hasn’t had a very successful running back. The Wildcats went into the season knowing it was a weakness and it’s shown to be true. Demie Sumo-Karngbaye is a good all-around player and does a lot of the little things well, but he’s not an explosive player. He leads the team with 505 yards and 5 touchdowns. Jamarion Wilcox is promising as a runner and is very talented, but the coaches have been reluctant to giving him a lot of snaps and he doesn’t always do the little things necessary to gain more trust. Kentucky ranks 10th in the league in rushing yards per game.

Edge – Texas **

KENTUCKY OFFENSIVE LINE vs TEXAS DEFENSIVE LINE

The pass protection from this group has been pretty bad. Kentucky has given up 27 sacks on the year but that doesn’t tell the full story of how much duress the QBs have been under. Eli Cox at center is experienced. Marques Cox at left tackle has a lot of experience as well. But right now, Kentucky has zero depth at tackle and has gone with freshman Malachi Wood earlier than planned and he’s struggled in pass protection.

Edge – Texas **

TEXAS PASS OFFENSE vs KENTUCKY PASS DEFENSE

Kentucky ranks third in the SEC in pass defense, giving up just 188.5 yards per game, but the Wildcats are actually 12th in the league in pass efficiency so the numbers are a bit mismatched. Losing cornerback Max Hairston to injury for a big chunk of the season was a big blow. Safety Jordan Lovett had a couple of picks last weekend. Kentucky’s strategy is to keep things in front and, take away the explosive plays. That same approach worked pretty well for Arkansas and Vandy against Texas, but the problem is that Kentucky hasn’t taken away enough explosive plays.

Edge – Texas *

TEXAS RUN OFFENSE vs KENTUCKY RUN DEFENSE

Kentucky’s run defense has kind of cratered towards the end of the season as as the team has gone downhill. The Wildcats are really big up front and have shown that they can stop the run if they’re dialed in but they haven’t always been locked in of late. Kentucky is banged up at linebacker, including losing D’Eryk Jackson, one of their best players, for the year.

Edge – Texas *

TEXAS OFFENSIVE LINE vs KENTUCKY DEFENSIVE LINE

Deone Walker hasn’t had great stats this year, but he has to be accounted for. He can have splash plays and create havoc on any given snap. Tre’vonn Rybka has had a strong season and could get looks in the NFL. Kentucky is very experienced along its D-line, but running a base 3-4 alignment, the linemen aren’t really designed to put up a ton of stats. Regardless, this is a group with a lot of talent.

Edge – Texas *

SPECIAL TEAMS

Kicker Alex Raynor has been perfect and he’s been good for the past few years so it’s not a fluke. He’s 15-15 this year, including two over 50 yards and four over 40 yards. Kentucky gets the edge at punter while the return games are basically a wash overall, although Brown is an electric return man capable of breaking a big one if given a crease.

If anyone has a parking pass, they’re not gonna use for Saturday. I’d be happy to take it off your hands.

Speechless. Not sure how Dems try to spin this one.

Americans are sick of bailing out these countries.

He could be a backup for a few years. Learn McVay's system which is similar to Sark's. Be around a few friends on the team, and slowly morph into a great NFL quarterback with a team that does good things.

Heart breaking.

Can’t imagine what it must have been like for those who truly loved and cared for her to watch the meteoric rise and then eventual tailspin that was her life.

Why didn’t someone save her daughter and remove her from such a terrible situation? That part of the documentary was agonizing to hear and watch.

Good morning,

I want to open today with a few words about the founder of Today’s Gift Allen Jones, aka DippyDawg. Today is the one-year anniversary of his passing. For those of you who started reading TG after he died, I want you to know that Allen was the kindest soul I’ve ever met. He started TG to help others who struggled with addiction as he struggled with it daily.

He has inspired many on OB and elsewhere to stay sober and to live life to the fullest. I broke bread with Allen a few times and joined him for a UT baseball game and you would not meet a more friendly person. He greeted everyone around him with a smile and a kind word. He also volunteered to be my first Grief Specialist client so that I could earn my certification. Thanks to him, I’ve been able to help many who suffer from the pain of grief. Thank you DippyDawg, may you continue to rest in peace! Please say a prayer for his wife Shaun and family as I’m sure they are still missing him terribly.

Today’s Gift:

I’m a grandparent of two granddaughters that are about 18 months old. Sometimes I’m amazed at how much my wife and I have forgotten how much work it was to raise our now 3 adult children. Like all parents, we had our struggles along the way, trying to figure out how to discipline them so they didn’t end up being terrors to society and thank God they all ended up as great adults.

We took our granddaughters to a park, and I witnessed one of them push the hands of another child off a statue of an animal that both were interested in touching. My instinct was to correct my grandchild, which I did, and she started to cry raising the attention of my daughter/her mother. My daughter asked what was going on and I explained what happened. Thankfully, my daughter was cool with my actions.

However, I’ve seen other parents get upset when grandparents attempt to correct bad behavior. Some of you may have seen the video of a child gone wild on an airplane, jumping up and down in their seat, screaming and then running up and down the plane aisle. Obeying authorities/parents is essential for bringing up good citizens so they can have a happier life.

Be careful out there my friends!

Hoping to take my kids (8 and 5) to their first game! Looking for 4 tickets (ideally lower level or club seats). Anyone have any they’re looking to sell?
