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.

LOL.... I am pretty bored and have a mild case of ADD. I'll never tell. ;)

Sure is fun watching it consume everyone's evening though.... :)

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!

      Evansville (11/5/24)

      Massie is basically listed at the same build as both AScott and TBell…our starting PFs for the last four seasons. That’s at least part of the reason I see Massie as a fit at our 4…so much of our defense is built around switching, denying entry and team rebounding…so we’ve never needed 6’8” 250 at the 4. I agree Vice is such a big wildcard. If it’s literally just him and Sissoko sharing minutes at the 5 and giving say 12/12 collectively, this squad could be a monster and legit ten-deep. this level of pre-season speculation is pretty darn fun. We are not have like three dudes on the roster we’re pretty well confident in knowing what they’ll give us…Walker, Sissoko and Stone…everyone else is kinda up in the air. personally…I think Wright is knocking on the door of 20ppg…with Floyd, Josell, Massie all around double-figures…balanced by Walker, Newell and some center combo giving 7-8/game.

      For the players and coaches, yes. For the student section, nope. They’re kids. Let them make some lifetime memories and rip the goal posts down.

      Memphis's Tyreek Smith Hits Portal Hours Before Opener

      What's happened to APR? Is that still a thing? It used to be that if more than a few players left a football program (much more so a basketball program) without graduating in the same year, it would kill a team's APR.

      Memphis's Tyreek Smith Hits Portal Hours Before Opener

      Have almost given up trying to figure out time lines with college athletes. Tell me how in the world athletes can transfer three or four times and still be on any path to have the proper amount of hours at a school to graduate. It has become a total joke.
