@Waxahorn, that's colder than a witch's teat in a brass bra😆

Wind chill below zero in Waxahachie this morning.

Ok, cool. Hook Em.

Sure did. Had a sobering moment then - I heard the 'crack' of limbs breaking, so I went outside on the walkway. We have a massive live oak in the front yard. I turned around to go inside, there was a loud explosion, and a large limb hit the ground where I was just standing.👀

Trophy Club in DFW update this morning. Quite a bit more!

Fair enough my man, but whatever you decide or even why you decided doesn't need an announcement. Just do it. Those of us who you interact with will notice your absence, but the guys at the top making the decisions won't. We all are equally frustrated, but telling us your intentions is preaching to the choir🤷🏿

Our trees and those I can see in the neighborhood all look good. That freezing rain a couple of years ago killed some of our younger trees by absolutely devasting and demolishing many branches and wreaked havoc on a few others. That really cold snap back in 21 also killed several of our younger trees, including 2 nice Monterey Oaks.

I think for him it is more like seeing the sausage being made. 😅

Yeah Mark, I think we dodged a bullet, we do not have a lot of accumulation on trees.

My back deck, looking over Walnut Creek and the pocket park beyond it, in northwest Austin, at 8 AM. No limbs down!

How many touchdowns did the offense score this year? That constitutes as making plays and regardless how you feel everything starts up front. Were they as successful as I would have liked, no. But excusing a star player because he made plays is not playing to the standard. It's playing to a player and I know that for a fact. The standard is the standard.

If you don’t like it, don’t get so invested in the behind the scenes. Saturdays are the same as they’ve ever been. If you are on these boards you are seeing how the cake is made rather than just enjoying it after it’s served.

Glad you’re staying! I want to add this. You’ll find folks on here that are somewhat negative and folks who are somewhat positive. And everything in between. But most importantly to me, rarely does anyone lose sight of the fact that we’re all wanting the best for Texas, just in our own way. In other words, Hook’Em first and foremost.

It’s easier for folks to pick holes against perfection IMO.

I don't know if you can tell, but we have a lot of oaks, and it doesn't appear that there was a lot of adherence to the limbs, so (hopefully) we won't have a lot of breakage. P

Lakeway, Texas.

Wokeness???? 🤷‍♂️ Do tell us ordinary mortals! Barry won with Jimmy's players. After that, with only a few bright spots overshadowed by Jones, it was over for me. College has always been more interesting on the field, but current trends away from student athletes has all but killed that for me. Players not getting paid was a raw deal for them, though.

Ugh. Still one of the most dominating high school tapes I have seen. They showed it at the Houston TD Club player of the year ceremonies and everybody kind of oohed and awed while watching.

I gave up on the Cowboys when Jerry Jones sacked Tom Landry and others {not that he fired them, but the disrespectful way he did it). I gave up on the rest of pro sports when they became so mercenary. College sports seem to be headed the same direction. I just hope we can win an NC in the next few years while it’s still worth caring about.

That your dog ?

And the key factor for Arch: he can get away from one rusher, it’s only when multiple guys get through that he has a problem. So even if the LG gets beat, if the other guys hold up, we’ll be fine.

Good morning OTF from an apparently frozen Longview, Tx. Currently 20.7 degrees.

10 hour later…..
