First Official Westsider experience…

This is my first year to sit on the West side. Season ticket next row from the top Sec 106. Sat next to Kyle and his kids. Enjoyed the visit Kyle. If you are on RRS I hope you see this and that y’all got home safely.

For years I have heard that Westsiders are too relaxed and quiet during the game. This was not my experience yesterday and thought the crowd was pretty enthusiastic. Sure felt sorry for those on the other side sitting in that beat down sun all day…. Respect! Been there, done that.

As always, I enjoyed my drive out to West Texas from Waco. Something serene about getting out there and driving up the Caprock coming through Post. Still miss Lubbock and there are so many great changes in the city since I was a student there. Maybe the easiest mid level city to get around ..ever.

Game was fun, new additions to the stadium are fantastic. Casey Cowen…you do a great job announcing! Orlando’s pizza was really as good as I recall and had a great breakfast at Stacked. Tech fans must have purchased a record amount of memorabilia and clothing based on the crowds in the stores I went to.

Behren Morton…frustrating to watch. Just hope he continues to improve. Tahj…stud runner. Penalties..too many stupid ones. Their receivers were wide open all day and it seemed like we had to throw into tight coverage all game long with a few exceptions. Why do our receivers get no real separation? We should have won this game by 3 TDs, but I will take the win and count on us getting better.

See you for the BU game.

Happy for win, O play calling and crowd get an D

D played their asses off and won the game. What I witnessed from the O side of the ball is beyond terrible. From coaching, play calling to dropped balls all terrible. And Hammond much better than Morton. While happy with a win we could not beat a team with a real heartbeat. Coaching with joey to O side of the ball is severally lacking.

I am usually a big homer of thanking students and crowd for continuing to show up when the results have not been there but the crowd today from the get go was horrible. Tons of empty seats from the get go, no energy and less than 40% capacity after halftime, no home field advantage with a sh!t bag crowd like we had today. just horrible

Feels like a loss. Zona St is not good, But happy we won.

Why do people bitch about a win

Unbelievable the amount of people complaining and bitching about a win

Season is already 1/3 of the way done. Blink an eye and it’s over

I enjoyed watching Tahj running hard, Kelly making some great catches, our defense with some big 4th down stops, winning the turnover battle

Victory Bells are ringing
We start Conference out at 1-0

OT: Best Communities Around Dallas?

My family is considering moving to the Dallas area. My company has an office location in Flower Mound, but I'm 100% remote and don't have to be located near the facility. Would like to be located within an hour of DFW for work travel purposes though.

For those of you in the area, what communities/schools would you recommend we look into? My boys are 8 and 3, and my wife works in the school system as a Speech Language Pathologist. Would prefer a smaller to average size school system and community, but really open to all options.

Currently looking at Celina/Prosper and Flower Mound, but open to all suggestions.

Texas Tech Red Raiders athletics app

Has the app been crashing a lot for anyone? Fortunately it worked yesterday so I could get my tickets, but today I’ve tried 3 times redownloading the app and it crashes before the main screen.

Not saying this is why some people couldn’t transfer tickets, but that is what I’m trying to do this week.

If it was an iOS 18 (iPhone) problem, surprised it didn’t happen earlier this week. Anyone else with issues @Robert G ? Thank you.

OT: "Wiseguy" Sopranos Doc

Watched the first episode of this two-part doc last night and I thought it was excellent. Some really great behind the scenes stuff from casting, etc. and David Chase and the HBO folks at the time talking about filming the pilot, etc. If you're a Sopranos fan you'll really like it. I watched Sopranos when it first came out and then rewatched the entire series again but it's been a while and when I heard that theme song and saw Tony driving and smoking the cigar it made me want to start it up again immediately. I'll be watching the second part tonight.
