Top 10 heavyweight all time is fair. Lewis, Holyfield, Foreman, Ali, Louis, Frazier, Tyson, Lennox, Holmes, and now Usyk. That is good company.

Any bars in Dallas that do Red River Rivalry watch parties for people who cannot get tickets? Looking for a good atmosphere without the $500+ ticket price.

I always bring Levels.fyi data to negotiations now. Hiring managers respect candidates who come with market data.

The MLB comparison is unfair. Baseball is not a contact sport. NBA players absorb physical punishment on every possession. The toll on joints and soft tissue is real.

Benji (1974) was filmed in McKinney and Denton. Old school but it counts.

Their October horror lineup last year was legitimately better programmed than most film festivals. And tickets are like $10-12.

AMC A-List paid for itself the first month. I genuinely don't understand why anyone buys individual tickets anymore.

The DFW pipeline is why Texas, A&M, and now SMU recruit so heavily here. You can build a top-25 roster without leaving the metroplex.

Prosper ISD is the move if you want top schools without Highland Park or Southlake prices. $580K median is steep but it was $400K three years ago.

Arsenal Dallas group at Barca's is the biggest supporters group in DFW. 50+ people for big matches. Come early to get a seat.

REGISTER YOUR CAR AND LICENSE WITHIN 90 DAYS. Texas takes this seriously. Source: txdmv.gov. Also get a TollTag immediately from NTTA.

Make the referee evaluations public. If fans could see which referees consistently make incorrect calls, accountability would follow. Transparency is the only solution.

DATCU Stadium on a good night is actually a fun experience. The student section brings energy when they show up. The problem is getting them to show up consistently.

As a DFW resident, doing the TCU-SMU double header on the same Saturday is the ultimate college football day. Noon game in Fort Worth, 7 PM game in Dallas. Both within 30 minutes of home.

Texas AG said rental scams are up 300% since 2023. The hot housing market makes people desperate and less careful.

As a Tech alum in Dallas: the watch parties at Katy Trail Ice House on Saturdays are growing every season. The DFW Red Raider community is energized.

Rodeo Goat Big Bubba is the best burger in Texas. Not just DFW. Texas.

I have been to 3 Premier League matches since VAR was introduced. The atmosphere in the stadium during a VAR check is awful. 50,000 people standing in confused silence staring at a screen.

My hot take: Deep Ellum peaked in 2019 and has been getting worse since. More chains, less character, higher prices, worse parking. The soul is leaving.

Parents at Hughston: the school is aware and has added a staff member to morning arrival monitoring near the back entrance.

FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium is $15-25 for tickets and the atmosphere is surprisingly great. Best value in DFW sports by far.

The trades labor shortage is real. I own a plumbing company and cannot find enough workers. Starting journeymen at $60K with full benefits.

The movement is what people who do not watch City regularly miss. He is not standing around waiting for service. He is making runs that create space for everyone else.

The "200 people move here daily" stat is real and it's why traffic gets worse every year. But also why the food, culture, and job market keep getting better.
