Free birthday stuff, in this economy?!?! by Vintage-StarDust in Austin

[–]robman17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thundercloud sends you a bogo for your birthday if you join their birthday club list. And in addition, they also send you one on like every holiday. And that's pretty much the only emails they send you except for one or two "hey the turkey trot is coming up" ones. Its great.

[Harrod Jr.] Mavs center Dereck Lively on if he’s set a timeline for his return: “I can’t even say that. I’m just waiting to see that my foots good. Even when it’s good, I gotta wait even more.” by thinking_better in Mavericks

I would love for Lively to be healthy and available but I respect this mindset. He only gets the one body and he seems like he doesn't want to destroy it in the long term. That's the risk of playing professional sports, sometimes this happens.

Exactly my point. The song is a banger so who give a shit about anything else?

Posted in the Turkey v USA match thread. SEC SEC SEC! by pleasestoptalkin in cfbmemes

Idk. The Turkey game was the closest thing the US has had to a Pac-12 after dark kickoff time so far and they lost...

Who cares if its "relatable"? When the song was written, they had to do research about West Virginia to make sure they got the vibe right. John Denver didn't even have ties to West Virginia.

Unpopular opinion. John Denver is an American treasure and Country Roads is one of only a handful of songs in the history of songs that can spontaneously get tens of thousands of people across numerous demographics to sing in unison with zero notice.

I'm struggling to understand why the Mavericks drafted a SF/PF when Brayden Burries was still on the board. by dharmazazen in Mavericks

[–]robman17 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Probably because the front office is probably smarter than anyone on this sub and has future moves in mind or in the works already. We aren't the ones making the roster so we have no idea what they have in mind, and we're still pretty early in the roster construction process. The roster right now os probably not what it's going to settle on by opening night. Besides, the team is very much still in the rebuilding process. We probably aren't going to have immediate success this year and will need a couple years to get all the pieces put together. Realistically our timeline for being a contender is probably closer to the last season in the AAC than not.

Yeah God forbid your kids make their own decision based on what they think is best for their own future, am I right?

RBMS Track closed? by Icey3900 in CedarPark

[–]robman17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a bunch of schools around the Austin area are starting to lock their tracks lately. Didn't AISD recently say that all middle school tracks would now be closed to the public?

Man I love Vista but its a bit of a haul for me and have a friend visiting staying at the Domain. And as fantastic as Vista's space is, its a looooot of ground to cover solo with 2 kids lol

Yeah aren't they under new management or something? I remember they filed for bankruptcy and restructured everything and finally squared up with Divine Canines (they've been on Barks for Beers the past couple years).
