    Just stopping in to remind everyone of how poorly recruiting is going for these clowns and how heartwarming it is to see them get what they deserve. Ranked 34 right now in the composite, I believe. 

    But they got Jim Nagy! All your 2 stars belong to him.

    Tex is breaking out the old Recruiting board “Cat Facts” tradition on Tyler Atkinson Day, aka “Tyler, Texas.”

    And I have been the world’s biggest dog advocate for decades, but with marriage came cat indoctrination. Now, I love those little psychos as much as any lonely old bag with 20 of them.

    Man, fuck those screen based infotainment setups. Super unsafe.. So happy brands are shifting back to switches/dials/toggles that you can adjust without taking your eyes off the road.

    My thoughts exactly. That's why I'm sticking with Bugatti.  Classic and modern. 

  4. Just finished as well. 

    Fak could never be seen again and it would not be noticed but guess being a producer means he'll be back.  Just not a fan of whatever he is.

    What boss/partner would let Syd drag out the partner agreement?  That's irritating IMO. I'm neutral with her but I do wish that her real struggle ( as mentioned previously here) would not be having to make a great choice. She should just tell Shapiro to wait until that timer strikes 0 and decision will be made. 

    We need more kitchen chaos and working through real day to day shit that happens in a place like that. Means more Carmy losing his shit. 

    The Ritchie/Carmy drama is too high school for me. What guys act like this? Especially those that have known each other for so long? 

    Maybe Ritchie will get to bang the expo girl next season. 

    Jimmy is awesome. Don't think we appreciate Platt's acting enough. 

    Took me a minute but Josh Hartnett has aged....differently.

    I'm back to liking Bree Larsen. At least for now. 

    Finally, this is Carmys show. I think we get away from that a bit. I get it for last season as he was filming The Iron Claw right? But focus needs to stay on him and have the support as needed. 

    Still like the show. Not much out there that I enjoy and will see it through.

    This is now the 2nd recruitment, at least, in which McGuire has leveraged a recruit’s status to make a fool out of Sarkisian and Texas. I’m not sure what the recourse is, but off the top of my head, telling a recruit if they’re going to visit Tech in any way shape or form, Texas will remove their offer seems like a possible path. Couldn’t do that with most places, but Lubbock and Tech are special circumstances due to the shithole, dumpster fire nature of that place and regime. 

    You will see the 'viral' video of Joey celebrating doing Horns down come out in the coming days.

    Rush

    Highly recommend The Rush Tribute Project if they come to your area. Maybe the best Tribute band you may see.

    This entire post is built on the assumption, and assumption for which there is no evidence for, and plenty of evidence to the contrary, that Texas will be incapable of winning big recruitments down the road that are the ones they deem as must wins. 

    We were losing to LSU for Collin Simmons till we weren’t, we lost Anthony Hill to A&M until we didn’t, we lost Sharma to Oregon until we didn’t, and Banks, and Cam Williams. Ryan Wingo was staying home. Kade Phillips was going to LSU because we blew it by telling him he was a safety. Was Justus Terry even  considering us until we decided shit, we might need DTs? Georgia and Oregon didn’t seem to be able to do shit about it once we did decide it was a need.  When did all these flips or commits come? Hmm, I bet it wasn’t June. 
     

    In summation, you have terrible fucking takes and you might be the only person on earth who resents getting his dick sucked. 

    My favorite satya melt was over Grant Polley.

  7. I have never seen insanity like I did in Fishes. Always expected the uplifting cheerful conclusion but it just went more crazy. Talk about subverting your expectations. 

    Shame on me not even noticing it was JLC til the end with the face to face with Carmy.

  8. One of my closest friends has been grinding in Hollywood for about 25 years now. He's been in a lot of good and bad movies. Top of my head, he was a SEAL that was blown up in the helicopter in Lone Survivor.  And recently got his ass kicked by Jessica Alba in some crappy movie. I can't watch any of his movies and take it seriously because I know his mannerisms and speech patterns so when he's acting it completely feels fake. He might be a decent actor but I can't separate the friend from the character.

    Just watched Lamar Brown film. Holy hell, what a monster. He would be our best interior defensive line prospect since who? Looks better than Justus Terry to me. Maybe Malcolm Brown?

    How would LSU handle losing another massive local 5* (Stewart) two years in a row? They have to be pillaging hospital and infrastructure accounts to get the money together right?

    The usual Surly routine is wondering how they get to a winning record, so they disappoint in that regard as well. 

    Here's an unprejudiced question: what indicates Elko is a better coach than in the past? Was there a game last year when he distinguished himself as a head coach? Their close loss to Notre Dame is, I suppose, the best place to look. He had a good season for Duke, but, so far, I don't see anything special about Elko apart from his snappy on-the-field wardrobe.

    To me, at best, he's unproven. Their collapse at the end of last season was nightmarish (for them). Where are the good signs? It's quite possible that I've missed them as I'm nothing of a football savant.

    His best 'coaching ' was Brian Kelly and Drink not preparing for the correct quarterbacks.

  11. Pate is now in the world of being too close to things where objectively and critical thinking becomes blurred due to the unfiltered propaganda spewed directly at him.  He's good on big picture stuff generally but team to team he's not keeping enough distance between himself and the looch's of the industry to be sensible. Now he just spews information that he gets as fact. Like Jackson Arnold is going to be good because two people told him.

    My FIL served in the British military for a decade. He then went on to work for a UK conglomerate working in "development" behind the Iron Curtain, in the USSR, the Middle East, Iran and the Far East for various stretches of time. He tells random stories of the same ilk as you do, although often really absurd or disturbing. He does it in the same matter of fact manner.

    "I was bringing across £50,000 through Ashgabat once via a hidden floor in the soles of my shoes for a mate once ..." or "our friend in Dubai, Ramy, kept buying canaries at the pet shop after he first brought his family over. it took awhile to figure out what was going on ..." or "the bloody problem with Russians is that life is not valued by them. I've run into more sociopaths in my dealings with those dirty bastards than anywhere else in the world outside of Kowloon ..."

    Now, I'm fairly certain that he actually was part of the British intelligence world. I sometimes wonder if you're not our Surly version of that. 

    Did he go down to the Falklands in the 80s? My uncle was a captain in the British army and I would pen pal him when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade for class.
