Roxie's is good diner food. Met a friend there for lunch about a month ago and had the chicken fried steak. The restaurant is owned by Scott Roberts, who owns the Salt Lick. It's in the Buda Grail &Mill location where Valentina's used to be.

It is easier to kill a bill than to pass one. -

Looks like we will have our home in 6 Creeks complete in October. I'll check the schedule, start the grill, and ice down the Yeti for a game watch for OTF members who can come. P

Modern analytics sucks. AI says 2001 pre-prime Kobe at 22 would beat 2017 28 year old Curry by double digits in a 1v1 game to 21. Curry couldn't score on Kobe. Curry couldn't stop Kobe from scoring.

Let’s not forget Cody is not the only billionaire supporter of Cruz and other pols. This statement from the SEC and B1G is a warning shot. If this were a boxing match there was a punch landed that stunned the title holder. Fear not the big dawgs have been punched before and know how to punch back. If these two step away on their own this act is just a big nothing and consolidates money and power away froM the smaller schools even more. -

To be clear, I don’t think this bill (in its current form) will become law even if it passes the senate. The house commerce committee is chaired by someone from Kentucky and the speaker is from Louisiana (I don’t see him knifing lsu in the back). However, I do stand by my criticism of Sankey. Over the last year or two, the sec has been reacting to other groups’ narratives about fixing college football. Sankey seems to have been caught without contingency plans for a bill that could devastate the schools he’s supposed to be looking after. I get that he probably didn’t expect this level of support for the bill, but in my view, it was irresponsible to not have a plan in place just in case this very thing happened. It’s not like he didn’t know the language in the bill a while ago. - Today

You’re not off base - that’s basically the tension here, even if the details are more complicated. -

Here is my caveman understanding of the situation. Now that we are paying players only the blue bloods can afford that because they have the lucrative tv deals (ie SEC and Big10) all the rest of the schools don’t like that and want to be subsidized via pooling/sharing of tv rev even though they contribute little to nothing to the pool so that they can carry the same player payroll and compete for natty. This is pure socialism IMO The proposed law also restricts SEC/B10 from expanding and contracting in an attempt to keep them regaining market power. this whole thing wreaks. Am I off base here? -

Cody and Cruz are trump honks so they’ll get what they want. Enjoy college football while you can. Majority, rule of law, nothing matters much anymore. He’ll just draft another abuse of power EE and congress will continue to abide. Next up is music. Anything that brings people together will be broken down. This is only political if you think any president should have this much unchecked power. 🫏 🐘other, it doesn’t matter. No one or branch should be above checks and balances. We don’t even have a Supreme Court anymore. Accepting gifts, overriding precedent for party purposes. All while most continue to close their eyes and hide behind party lines. I feel sad for my kiddos and their future. These are all trial balloons to see what people will tolerate. Thankfully, most pushed back on the gambling thing but there’s a much graver game at play. We do not want congress in college football. We need an “ncaa” with empowerment, objectivity, brains, and common sense. Before yall flush this with whataboutisms, I’d say the same for Biden, Obama, Bushs’, Clinton, etc. I care about where the country is headed and not the party leading it. We’re starting to see it infect everything. It’s only leans political because politics is invading everything in our country. Anything Cody is political and serves one purpose: him and those in his inner circle. Please don’t maga, or whatever the left equivalent is, me. I’m not looking for a political conversation. My point is politics is already steering this very topic and it’s going to get harder to ignore it. First and last comment on this 🤘🏽 -

Aggy would be wise to take some of the money they're using to buytheir recruiting class and divert it to getting their corrupt dog back on a leash
