This is what they get for not making Jose Altuve the face of the league. You wouldn’t have all the same kind of buzz.

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
I'm a first thing every morning type guy since I typically wake up between 6-7 every day. I hate it when my wife has to wake up before me because all it takes is someone's alarm going off to tell my bowels to start preparing. Got to work 30 minutes earlier than usual today though!

Re: CUBE LIFE! Office Etiquette
Why did that person leave in the first place? Moved to take care of his mother. (That sounded ominous. He moved to be the primary caregiver for his mother.) Sounds like you're not happy his mom got better tbh. Seriously though, to me that seems like it would be less worrisome knowing that.

We have an acquaintance who lost her 9-year-old when they were driving to school in the fog and ran into a truck parked on a random side street that is typically not very traffic-heavy.

Re: Everyone OK?
It's cool to do what you want to do, but this world would be a much better place if people didn't care what other people did. Like I've seen this meme where it shows two couples at dinner where one table is two of them on a phone and the other two are not with some caption about being in the moment....

Re: NCAA Basketball 23-24
Is there a more unlikable coach than Dan Hurley? He was a real twit for his first few years in college, no real surprise he coaches the same way. I don’t know if that guy actually got kicked out but I love Pitino telling him not to leave. Yes mister d I realize Pitino has had his own issues!

Re: NCAA Basketball 23-24
One of my favorite memories was greatly inconveniencing him during the 2003 Final Four. We were walking down the ramps after the games were over and we noticed he was walking behind us with his wife. One of my good friends at the time was a huge OU fan, so I thought I'd ask him for his autograph an...

Re: NCAA Basketball 23-24
My first instinct is to always defend something Houston-related, but I've always "hated" Sampson stemming from his days at OU. Then he became a Rockets assistant who did wonders and now has UH a favorite for the championship. So, I've softened my stance. But it was back in full force when ...

I'm a full album guy too. I once drove from College Station, TX, to St. Louis with zero skips. The music on road trips is mine unless I'm feeling nice and they haven't been annoying (or if my wife is driving in which case she can do what she wants). We always start really long trips at night so they...
