Heat index about 100 on Saturday. That is what gets them from up there. Lived up there for 3.5 long years. Never could convince Hoosiers that DFW is not in the desert and that it is NOT a dry heat.
Also could not convince them that chili was originally just with beans and the meat was a later addition.

The heat is very overrated as an advantage if the opposition is prepared (they will be). Having lived in Texas, I was coaching baseball on a 100 degree day in Minnesota. I told my team of 11 year olds, when you're sitting down, you're drinking water.
About four innings in, the one kid who didn't listen basically collapsed in the field. Then the opposing players started to fade. My other eleven were just fine.

Yeah, plus -- it's freaking baseball. It's not like it's a real athletic endeavor.
You people are such candy asses. Rio Grande Village, TX will be 107 Sunday and the high won't be less than that for two weeks, with many highs 110 and above. Throw in the sun (add 15 degrees) and those people are roasting!

We had a very mild spring so I have no reason to believe we will be any more acclimated to the heat than them.
Not sure I heard, was Tre’s late removal from the last game cramping or something worse? Hope he’s good and all are hydrated.

Seems like a weird place to compare the weather to.
But... My boys and I were at Big Bend and Terlingua, TX a few days ago. Beautiful down there.
Ya, Steel has been to big bend (np and sp) over 100 times over the years. Climbed nearly all the mountains that are climbable, a few still to go.
Point being it’s still a place in Texas that is actually hot. Fort Worth is not hot.
Athletes like warmer weather. Cuts down on injuries, easy warm ups, body stays warm etc. Fat couch potatoes do not like heat.
That is all.

Found Tom Herman's burner account.
Here’s a testament to the Big Bend heat (Dog Canyon is a very mild, flat, relatively short hike) — this was just posted on Friends of BB fb page:
“Hello everyone,
I just want to say thank you to whoever found and turned in my friends phone in Dog Canyon. It means a lot to me and his family. He suffered a heat stroke last week as our group made our way back to the entrance and unfortunately didn’t make it and passed the next morning. It was lost during ordeal when paramedics arrived but we are thankful to have it back. Please stay safe out there.

You have to start hydrating a couple of days out at least. I am sure our guys are being cared for.

thank you steel for sharing this uplifting story and once again doing your best to piss down the leg of anything involving tcu
Far from it - Steel is pissing, as you so delicately put it, down the legs of the people trying to discourage fans from coming out because of entirely seasonal temperatures.

Awesome Double D! I’m here! First time I’ve been back on campus since the wife got sick 2 years ago. I appreciate you offering me you club seats and suite! Wait, wrong sport.
I could only escape the people’s republic of austin for this one game. Just checked in (this TCU Hyatt is nice) and about to walk that way.
Does anyone have a nice IPA cold one I could bum off them?
in all seriousness, I really miss coming up here for sporting events. Even for just one game, I’m thrilled to be up here.
