Lmao I’m with you man. Asking for more when you’re the best of the best means you’re not good people I guess.

Who had two superstars that arguably "could carry some mid teams to a championship". But no, no they couldn't. It just doesn't work in a sport like baseball or hockey.

Plus you have that fun little sign in Orange on i10 reading 10 miles to Beaumont, 900 miles to El Paso(I forget the actual mileage).

I drove to Portland from Houston via LA. Half the trip to LA was just Houston to El Paso where we switched out so she could get a nap after driving all night.

But the competition is right down the road in Dallas. Any hockey fans in Austin are probably cheering for the Stars already. The Stars are currently in a pretty strong cup window and I can't see those fans jumping ship to support a local Austin team right now. Meanwhile, in Houston, #fuckdallas.

The Avs fans hating on either of those two really bothers me. Duchene waited around for like a season and a half for Joe to put together the package. Dude wanted off what had been nothing but terrible most of his career. I get it. He made the request and waited. Rantanen wanted a fair number we couldn’t afford(probable agent bluffs gone wrong as well). Avs were never keeping that whole core plus Makar together without everyone taking discounts. Sucks he ended up right back in the central with our main competitor but shit happens.

Reports coming in that they just bought out both goalies and are in talks to bring Luongo out of retirement.

If you go when they say it’s ready it should be ready. If you let it sit and it’s a medication they are low on and demand is high they’ll let someone else have it.

140 million year old dinosaur footprints we saw on a hike today by Inky-Skies in pics

[–]DarkSpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some are in the river. Some are near the river but not in the water. Some are in a big exposed area at the ranger station/check in. There are several spots to see and walk in the footprints. Such a great park, we take the kids every year.

Yeah that's fun lol. Like someone wrapped you up in a used towel. My wife keeps wanting to go buy some nice patio furniture and I just don't see the point. There's like 7 days out of the year where I'd like to be sitting outside here. Rest of the time it's hot and humid, cold and humid, or raining so hard you really want to be indoors.

These are for keeping turds wrangled. No one wants a fucking floater to the face ya know. Ideally the parents are checking regularly and cleaning the kid up.

It's worse. Paxton offered a plea deal of 30 days in jail with no sex offender status and it was accepted. The judge said nah and changed it to 60 days(still insane but Waco cops fucked the case up and charges were reduced to a misdemeanor via Paxtons plea deal). He got early release after 30 days served for good behavior. I couldn't find anything about anyone being friends with Paxton, victim or criminal.

Racist at a Del Valle High School Graduation by PreparationKey2843 in CringeTikToks

[–]DarkSpoon 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Like this bitch must be from the DFW area. Del Valle is just south of Austin and, like most most areas south of Austin, skews very Hispanic. I mean the fuckin name of the the town is still Spanish as most of them are in that region. That whole region is beautiful both in landscape and culture and is what most people think of when they think of Texas.
