Regardless of sport, players will beg officials to look at replays on in-venue video boards. I'll always remind viewers that it is an exercise in futility, because no official is going to look up (since they can't change his/her call). Well, this time the call was changed for the worse for #AustinFC

First road trip for #AustinFC in 2026. A win would give Austin its best-ever three-match start. We go live in less than five on Alt 97.5 FM and the iHeart Radio app (free).

Opening weekend for Big 12 Softball. We’ve got a doubleheader today in Waco as Baylor hosts Iowa State. We get started 1:00pm on the ESPN app.

Section 104 done. Listo!

Back at the diamond with our SECN+ crew. First pitch between #3 Texas and HCU at 6:30 PM.

Dispelling the notion that I’m calling #AustinFC matches with verde-tinted lenses.

#AustinFC did not get its first goal from a substitute last season until the 16th match. ATXFC finished the season with 3 goals via the bench, including one at DC last year. Ramirez joins Biro as the only players to score in their ATXFC debuts (both as subs).

"Who's the New Guy?" #AustinFC

#AustinFC back at home to host DC United. We go live 1:30 PM CT on: - Alt 97.5 FM - iHeart Radio app - SiriusXM FC - Apple TV (alternate audio option) - Q2 Stadium restrooms (and clubs)

IYKYK. #AustinFC 🎤 🐕 www.fox7austin.com/news/austin-...

Back at the diamond. #3 Texas hosts UTRGV. We go live in Austin 6:30 PM on SECN+.

A little recap of some of the things we did to try and get ready for the season opener. New website content, shirts, hats and more coming soon! 🍻💚🍻🖤🍻 youtu.be/yc5MCMOcLQk?...

Back in the booth in San Antonio. We’ve got Roadrunners, Huskies, and one Cat.

Reminder: All MLS matches will now be available to Apple TV subscribers (f.k.a. “Apple TV+”). It is a win for #AustinFC season ticket holders, who get a free subscription to Apple TV programming (not just the former MLS Season Pass). Also a win for those already subscribed to Apple TV regularly.

First of nine softball broadcasts over the next ten days with Cat. No complaints (from me). #NCAASB

Home-opener for the defending National Champions. We’ve got Texas and ACU tonight to kick off Day 1 of the Bevo Classic. Great 4-day stretch ahead with on SECN+.

First time no returning #AustinFC player changed his number. I am proclaiming it safe to customize your kit with your favorite player name and #. They will definitely not be transferred out two months later nor suffer injury.

The real fantasy aspect is being able to enter MLS Week 1 with enough first team players to fill your lineup and bench.

10:30am tip? 10:30am tip. We’ve got NBA G League in an NBA arena as Austin Spurs and Texas Legends clash this morning in San Antonio.

Based on the team/league social media accounts I follow (and assuming most admins fall within a certain age range), I think we are back to 20-somethings almost exclusively associating Groundhog Day with its original spring/winter forecast after three decades of being comically hijacked by a movie.

Midway through #AustinFC preseason, can confirm the following members of the press corps appear healthy & put in a full 90 Sunday: @eric-oaktreetimes.bsky.social @colbygordon.bsky.social @waatvofficial.bsky.social @alexwaatv.bsky.social @philwest.bsky.social @moiseschiu.bsky.social Laura Gallo

Watched the first half of SNL on the DVR last night (through Weekend Update). No skit/segment has been a dud. Several moments of uncontrollable laughter. Thankfully, I was not mid-bite nor mid-sip of anything.

Here’s the introductory press conference with Facundo Torres, the newest DP signing for #AustinFC. All of Facundo’s responses are in Spanish, prompting me to wear my glasses that live translate for me. (And do so in the voice of Keegan-Michael Key.) youtu.be/1D1FolZ2vCk?...

Houston put up a fight, but # 14 Baylor remains atop #Big12WBB, leading start to finish tonight. youtu.be/ObyokQqIEEE?...

Back in Waco tonight for #Big12WBB. # 14 Baylor looks to fend off Houston and remain atop the conference. 7:00 PM ESPN+

Perhaps fittingly, an Irish goodbye from OBRIAN. #AustinFC www.austinfc.com/news/austin-...

I expect Jayden to wear 7️⃣ for #AustinFC. He’d be the 6th different player to wear the number in Austin’s first six seasons. (The first four were DPs.) ‘21 Pochettino ‘22 Driussi ‘23-‘24 Rigoni ‘24 Bukari ‘25 Obrian

How many #AustinFC supporters decided to leave the house today and brave the cold…but completely forgot YOU OWN A SCARF ?

What’s better than a Swiss Army Knife? A Swiss (Irish) Army Knife that doesn’t require an international roster spot. #AustinFC OG Jon Gallagher became a U.S. citizen in 2024.

If you’re staying warm inside and have already run low on things to watch, here’s Nico’s second presser of the preseason. #AustinFC youtu.be/iOjVHn8twUc?...

First college teammates of 2026!

Sunday in the Big 12.

I use it to upgrade older smart TVs by plugging it into the ARC HDMI, overriding the older TV software. Right now it’s not much more $ than replacing an old Roku remote.

Tomorrow’s the last day of a 50% off sale on the Roku Streaming Stick Plus ($20 Amzn, Target, BB, Home Depot, etc.) or $16 for the basic Streaming Stick. Pays for itself with 3-month Apple TV offer (redeem by 1/19/26)*, covering the first couple months of #AustinFC. *Some Apple accounts ineligible
