WHEN was last time you visited Houston??? NOT the same land, my friend. I was scared to death when I strolled (in a car) through Rice's projects. We lived in The Woodlands for almost 2 years (2010-

This is an interesting thread. I thought we were playing Southern Miss this week.

I am. I grew up in Houston. I've traveled more than you have, I can pretty much guarantee that. Your ignorant typical Dallasite comments are just par for the course and makes it obvious you don't

Have you ever been to Rice's campus? We lived in the Houston area for 2 years. their campus sits directly inbetween Barrio A and Barrio B. Not a sign a very many rich folk. U of H is actually safer. One of the main reasons why my favorite player rejected the offer.

What in the world are you talking about, Rice is in one of the best parts of Houston. Are you sure you ever lived here?

Are you screwing with me?

You cant be serious.

I'll take Dallas after dark before Houston any day of the week. I still have my zoo pass in my wallet. A "kid" ( I say kid bc she looked at least 16) got raped the last day we went before we moved back to DFW.

I'm hearing twilight zone music.....

Spent a few hours around Rice campus last season when we played Houston. Very uppity area with that old money feel. Very pretty and safe feeling though. Is this a bit, SSP?

No, I can honestly say that I dont know exactly where that is.

Steph, the arguments about Houston are moot because according to at least 1 person on here from Houston, anyone who doesn't like it there has mental or emotional problems. I knew any mention of Houston in a negative light would start this crap all over again.

She clearly hasn't been to Houston. But she does kegstands in Ireland, so there's that.

Please tell me you aren't a college kid who's against girls doing keg stands? And while you're at it can you please stay on topic. I've lived in sh$tholes. Houston nor DFW qualify as crappy places. Not even close. It's a ridiculous discussion. (Not drunk girls. Drunk girls are swell.) Breath...

Anyway, IF we win Saturday, Rice is going to be huge. I am not thrilled about these short practice weeks either. At least it's a home game. Rice is going to be tough. I must say I hope they aren't as healthy as we are. Which I think we are fortunate in that department. Hopefully, we are healthy after Southern Miss. I don't know why but I have a feeling Southern Miss could be bad.

Yeah, I figured that out a few hours ago. Just thought I'd screw with them for a bit since I was bored. ;)

People take stuff so personally on "the internet". Its almost like this is their personal lives. Made my night. Thanks, ya'll!

Toss up. Taxes are now lower in Aubrey.

However, I think we are about to become traitors and try to transfer to Pilot Point. (gasp) Yes, I know. But, with the new Wally World on 380... We'll be 4A overnight. And we prefer the smaller town life.

I think SSP got lost and ended up at Houston Baptist U in the heart of Sharpstown, and THOUGHT she was at Rice / West U. :P

Hint: Rice is in CUSA and has a 70,000 seat stadium. It's hard to miss it, even with all of the trees in West U. HBU just took one of the empty spots in the SouthLand conference, and has a football field but no bleachers, let alone a stadium. Shopping in West U: High-end boutiques. Shopping in Sharpstown: Plaza de las Americas (formerly known as Sharpstown Mall), or the "Everything's a $1.00" store.

Oh... and one more truth for you. My bubble was doing keg stands in Ireland while you were hitting puberty..

Temple Bar area...big red square way cool bar perhaps? Been there .... Done that ... Loved it! It's the area where I learned that I liked Smithwick's much more than Guiness. Perhaps a crime in Dublin, but draft Smithwick's rates right up there with Yuengling for me as more mass produced beverages go!

BTW...I like Houston about as much as you seem to like the place. LOL with your thread fun here.

This... Um...

KingDL1? Isn't this what we're paying you for now?

Wait... Moderation pays these days???

Where do I sign up?

Oh, and Houston is ass as a city, and sweaty ass at that. If I never have to go back, it will be too soon.

It was McGowans in Dublin and it was indeed Smithwicks! Good Call!

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
