Having to put a dog down? Damnit. Just absolutely brutal.

I wanted to thank @Taft33 and the folks at Live Oak for taking care of our family this morning. Eric and his crew are always all class and I'm thankful to have a friend like him.

Unique character.

Since this happened, Lamb retweeted this saying (lol), changed his Twitter banner to a picture of him and Hollywood Brown, to which Brown also changed his banner to a picture of him and CeeDee. Cowboys fans, are you worried an extension will never come?

Alright, had no idea this was a thing and wife is due on the 23rd. Gimme some recs, stat!

A Serbian man drowned during the competition. So tragic. They sent a dive team out and eventually recovered his body within about an hour of him going under.

We had our first run-off between Bralyn Lux and CJ Baskerville and it was one that showed why we do run-offs at all. CJ Baskerville finished 1st in the original vote with roughly 27% of the vote while Lux finished 2nd literally one vote behind. However, Lux won the run-off head to head against Baskerville by roughly 10 points. Lux is now 6th on the list and Baskerville is back in the group of candidates.

Running List:
Tier 1
1) Tahj Brooks - RB - Super Senior
Tier 2
2) Josh Kelly - WR - Super Senior
3) Jacob Rodriguez - LB - RS Junior
4) Ben Roberts - LB - RS Soph
5) Behren Morton - QB - RS Junior
6) Bralyn Lux - CB - Super Senior

Last year's list was incredibly old/experienced and this year's is as well. 3 super seniors in the top 6 and a couple more candidates to come who are super seniors as well. Let's see if Baskerville gets a good chunk of Lux voters or if we're headed to another run-off.

I realize very few people on this site care about Tech's volleyball team, but some of us care about every team that has Texas Tech on their uniforms. I enjoy watching the fast pace of collegiate volleyball. I imagine Tony Graystone is a really nice man and can coach volleyball (won conference championships at a&m Corpus Christi), but outside of the 2017 season when the team finished as runner-up to Ole Miss in the National Volleyball Invitational Tournament (where Tech had to play all of their matches at the opposing teams' home courts and Ole Miss got to host every round including the championship), his Tech teams have not been competitive in the Big 12.

Even in 2017, Tech was 4-12 in the Big 12 and finished 19-15 overall. Here are the results since then (and keep in mind OSU does not field a VB team): 2018 (17-13, 6-10 7th) 2019 17-13, 7-9 5th) 2020 (9-13, 5-11 7th) 2021 (17-13, 7-9 6th) 2022 (16-13, 5-11 7th) and 2023 as of today (8-9, 1-4 10th out of 13 teams). In 2020 TCU finished last (3-13 in conference) and in 2021 they finished last again (2-12 in conference). Then they replaced their coach. In 2022 they finished 3rd in the conference (11-5) and as of today the 2023 team is tied for 3rd (10-5, 3-1) with two of their three wins being against Tech.

If Kirby cares about Tech volleyball, it is time to make a change at the end of this season. Tech should be competitive in every sport in which we field a team. I hope Snider is the right coach to pull the softball program out of the ditch, and it is time to find someone else to lead the volleyball program. Results don't lie. This is not a rant; just an observation.

I need this in my fridge for football season. Will it be available in stores? Live in North Dallas.

Would love to hear a discussion on this. If I owned a business near the FFAT I’d be pissed.

Here is this week's Ask Level Podcast with @C. Level and myself. Enjoy.

Bringing little kids for ASU game, anyone have a really good parking pass they're willing to sell so I don't have to die walking the kids across creation? Figured I'd check here before hopping on SeatGeek.

I work in a small off that has a single stall men’s room. It seems like every time I need to urinate someone is camped out in there. I wouldn’t mind so much but sometimes we’re talking 30 minute waits here. So in RRS opinion, how long should you spend in the work can taking the browns to the Super Bowl?

Big stuff here from Behren Morton and Joey McGuire. That last quote from McGuire is golden. Check it out.

This is one of the better articles I've written in some time, I feel like. Micah Hudson is a super impressive person to talk to and you can see the mentality and maturity just being around him. Enjoy this insight into his adjustment to becoming a Red Raider.





Barnett Howard & Williams PLLC is a law firm founded by three Red Raiders and based in Fort Worth. BHW attorneys handle personal injury, family law, criminal defense, and Title 9 cases all across the state. We hope you never need us, but we are in your corner when you do.

We had a chance to catch up with the super sophomore and rising star in the soccer world, Texas Tech's Sam Courtwright before the season starts next week at #4 Penn State (have an exhibition Aug 8 in Denver first!) Won Big 12 Freshman of the Year, First-Team All-Big Team and the programs first ever freshman to be named a NCAA All-American in the teams record breaking 2023 season. She has also been taking part in every USA National U-20 team camp and game since January and is likely to take part in the U-20 World Cup with Team USA in Columbia starting Sep 1. Who knows you may just see her in the Olympics and World Cup one day representing Team USA's senior national team squad as well. In summary: she's a rising star who brings a TON of flair and excitement to the game (peep the juggling rainbow flick to get the ball away from two surrounding attacking players at the start of the interview). Give it a watch, trust if you don't already know her you want to know this name as she is on track to be a Red Raider and soccer great alike.

I know there has to be a few posters out there that were going to Uncle Nasty's, Faces, White Rabbit and the Crystal Pistol among other Lubbock night spots.........my question is does anyone remember the exact address downtown of Freeman's, or some called it Freeman's Place ? Owned by Roger Freeman....

I've tried researching, found nothing. I'm pretty sure it was on Broadway, south side of the street.........and, they had a fire which was the end of the club, but did the entire building burn to the ground ? I can't think of an empty spot down there...........help !!!!

someone post this please haha

The fact that people in this country espouse it just shows how disconnected they are from reality. Government ownership of a nation's wealth is a disaster for its citizens. Instead of some poor, everyone is poor.

So we got into a discussion in staff meetings today, when do you use Gold Bond powder?

Lux and Baskerville were only separated by 1 vote in the vote for 6th Best Player on the Team. When that happens, we go to a run-off between the top two vote getters to ensure the true people's choice! The poll will run for 24 hours and whoever wins gets 6th and whoever loses goes back into the pool of candidates for 7th best player on the team.
