Yea the drugs are really a territorial thing, like most cities. I lived in North Austin and worked downtown, didn't see many meth zombies out. I was born in Gonzales.. been to New B a few times growing up. Austin definitely isn't a bad place to visit, just not live. San Antonio or Houston offer a better bang for the buck if you want to detour to a bigger city when visiting, though.   

 

No problem.

West hills burbs are just like burbs anywhere and low crime. Depends on the part of the city like most places.

New Braunfels and Austin are very different places and well over an hour away from each other. 6th St is garbage. There's a ton of great places to go if you stay away from the obvious tourist spots.

You prefer Tyler TX over Austin?? Haha oh man that is hilarious, I was just there two weekends ago. Tyler sucks except for Stanley's BBQ.

I just seen where theres a Narcan free vending machine was installed on the street. *In austin

If youre up to it, please gimmie a few places to visit. I may visit in the winter fyi. Shes on my nuts about it. Ive already been the river walk, while I was a teen 20 years ago. Dont know if its changed, I know its open carry there.

I was at a restaurant in Lakeway (west Austin) yesterday when the bartender got excited to see I was wearing a Panthers shirt.  After talking about the team he mentions that his mother used to babysit Baker.  If Mayfield plays well and we win a few, there will be a lot of Panther fans in Austin.

Riverwalk is in San Antonio, it’s closer to New Braunfels than Austin.

Not sure what you’re into but I’ll make some winter friendly suggestions. 

My advice is to just make a plan beforehand and you’ll have a good time. Yea there’s some scummy areas but it’s a major city like any other. There’s places to stay away from and 6th St. after midnight is one of them. 

Winter around Christmas time is the best time to visit when the weather is mild (most of the time) and all the students are gone. Pick out a concert to go to, the Moody Amphitheater is nice but I don’t know what their schedule will be like in the winter since it’s outside. There’s a nice little park attached to it too. The new Moody Center is a world class listening room though, top notch sound. That’ll have bigger national acts. 

Find a nice restaurant to go to before a show, and maybe a bar to have a nightcap at afterward. Go walk around on South Congress or dance at the Broken Spoke as some other options. 

If you can’t come to Austin and manage to have a good time it’s really on the person, because it’s a fun town.

You’re welcome. But I do wonder if you’ve actually been to Austin because the Alamo is in San Antonio too 😂

Ive never been. 

I think thats the other poster, he also lived there. 

Many moons ago I looked at the map and with my sister living in new braunfels, thought that close enough to visit austin. Hell that was before half of CA moved there. Im still willing to visit cause young CA women could make me dive in a active volcano....

I need to visit the texas A&m, both her kids are going there too. Got a nice pad on the lake....

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      Poster board? Were you trying to use the term poster child?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive short or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads, be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
