I am 1000% confident this WR pick will be a total bust especially with 3 WR’s going right after that will all be studs for Pitt, Indy and KC. That being said, Belichick will probably grab a undrafted CB that will be a pro bowler in the next 3 years who will then sign a big contract with another team.

His Wikipedia has already been updated.

Urban Cowboy is the most Texas movie I can think of but that’s from the view of someone not born in Texas.

Sorry, but I can’t resist any excuse to use this Simpson’s clip.

You mean this one that is already here? https://www.aol.com/worried-ba-2-coronavirus-variant-195006658.html

So I have to head to Spain in a few weeks for business and was taking my wife. She is now freaked out about having to take a Covid Test to get back into the US and being stranded in Spain for 7-10 days. Honest question, but why is this still a requirement? Covid is here, the variants are here and the testing is not full proof in that I could test negative and a day later test positive when I am back in the US. I get it at the beginning of the pandemic when we were trying to not let Covid spread in this country but now with vaccines and pretty much the entire country having Covid floating around is this really doing anything to require a Covid test to re-enter the United States?

It is interesting that a state that is basically 51% R and 49% D gets its congressional seats to be split in a 20 to 8 ratio for R's. The D's won't win a lawsuit over this because the Supreme Court which is packed with R appointees will say "states' rights" and allow it to happen. I wonder how many other states have this kind of disproportionate look when it comes to number of R's/D's versus actual representation in congress. The Senate is just as bad if you look at actual population in each state.

I find coffee cans stuffed with money buried in my back yard to be much safer.

It's not like I want people dying either but at the same time if 99.9% of the deaths are people who chose not to get vaccinated then I really don't feel bad for them at this point. If someone chooses to not wear a helmet while riding a motorcycle, I don't wish death on them but at the same time if they wreck and die and a helmet would have saved their life then that is on them.

I'm not trying to be a dick but I do have a legitimate question on your stats. Of those dying at this point are they vaxxed or unvaxxed? What is their age bracket? Over 65? Over age 80? Do they have serious health conditions? Yeah, I know we need to protect people with health conditions but I am not trying to get into that argument with you. Just curious what the stats are in general of those dying at this point.

No love for The Phantom Menace? Yeah, Yoda was the better actor in this scene but I thought Samuel L Jackson held his own. Pulp Fiction is the correct answer by the way.

How about a real update from my AA experience yesterday. I had a flight yesterday at 4pm from Orlando back to DFW. 4pm gets delayed until 6pm and then we start to board. About 50 of us scan our ticket and are on the jet bridge but we aren’t allowed to board the plane. Suddenly the American Airlines app “bings” and it says the new flight time is 8pm. 30 seconds later it changes the flight time to 10:30pm. Another minute goes by and it says 12:30am. All of the people on the jet bridge head back to the gate or admirals club to try and figure out what is going on. Over the next 10 minutes the departure time on the app changes 20 times going back to 6pm and then to 1am and everything in between. It finally says 6pm and a mass of people head back to the gate which says 6pm and they start boarding us again. While boarding a second time our app continues to change the departure time over and over again. About 30 of us get on the flight and are in our seats and we notice nobody else has boarded for a few minutes. Not a good sign. After sitting there for 15 minutes and the app changing to different departures every 2 minutes it finally moves my flight departure time to 1:30am with a 3:30am arrival and my seat gets moved to 10L (this is a 737 so the only seats are A-F). The pilot then announces he has timed out and can’t fly so everybody needs to get off the plane and a new plane will be coming at 12:45am with a 1:30am departure. I call my corporate travel and they find me a flight on SW to Love Field leaving at 9:30pm arriving at 11:30pm. I had to go to a different terminal, through security and finally got a flight to Love so at midnight I had to take a Uber to DFW to grab my car. My boss waited on the AA flight and he just started boarding in Orlando by the time I got to DFW. I sill have no idea what was going on with them yesterday but I have never seen anything like that in all my years of travel.

This still kills me from his roast of Bob Saget. When he tells the joke about the Olsen twins look at John Stamos in the back row and Jeff Ross in front of him fall out of his chair. Dude was a comedian’s comedian.

I’m kind of down on Popeye’s for getting rid of their dirty rice. Also, about 25 years ago the Popeye’s in Houston used to make the best freaking onion rings in the world. Man I could go for some of those right now.

Tucker talking about “native born whites” reminds me of this guy.

I would add the guy playing Jerry West also. Hell, even the Magic, Kareem, Norm Nixon actors are killing it to me. I was kind of blown away when I learned that Claire Rothman is played by the daughter from Field of Dreams. She looked familiar but I couldn’t quite figure out why.

You left out all the illegal immigrants from our southern border raping and killing US citizens. I for one am tired of being raped and murdered by them here in Dallas on what seems like a weekly basis.

Most of this country is made up of idiots on both the left and right so these polls don’t mean shit. I assume you consider yourself an intelligent person so let me ask you what your thoughts are on how Biden has handled the four above items. Those being crime, immigration, the economy, and inflation. What has he done wrong with regards to these issues and what should he have done better? Once you have given your viewpoints then we can all have a real discussion on these issues. I will hang up and listen.

I have seen that "visually-impaired" judge before on something. Maybe Diners, Drive ins and Dives?

Is this the IMF Tom Cruise is in or the other one?

Did UNC not have a TO? I mean if they did it would be nice for a good head coach to call an actual play to set up the 3 versus just going down and jacking up 25 footers with a guy in your face.

This is around when I started drinking and collecting bourbon. It was nice when you could grab a Weller Antique and Weller 12 year for under $30 a bottle and they were readily available. Same goes for Eagle Rare, Bookers, Blanton’s and the rest that were always on the shelf. Bourbon is very much like the current watch industry where you can’t get anything and everything is marked up to stupid levels mostly because people are trying to make money buying and selling bourbon instead of just drinking and enjoying it.

Can we also do some that should be underneath this fictional Mt. Rushmore? Who was the lease a corvette guy? Rocko?

I am similar except I hated them during the Showtime Era, hated them after the Showtime Era, hated them during the Shaq and Kobe Era, hated them during the Kobe and Gasol Era and hate them now during the Lebron Era.
