    Grammys

    My guess is that you will see him in a film in 3 years, if not sooner. This is the first stop on the Will Smith comeback tour, because he is an international film star and the international film going audience is fairly racist, so when you have a bankable actor who is pre-approved, you want to continue making bank while you can. Slapping Chris Rock is nothing compared to some of the stuff we have seen in [take that shit to the CR] “other parts of society”, so get over the slap. He’s coming back.
  2. I stopped following the team (and the league) when they took the Burn’s games off of free TV on Saturday evenings and put everything behind the Apple TV paywall. I only follow the USMNT when it comes to soccer games in the USA. The last FC Dallas Burn game I went to was in late ‘23 (or ‘22?) when Willie played after the game. I went, because I had never seen Willie live and his sister played that night before dying early the next year. Last adult soccer game I went to was in Austin when the USMNT barely beat Jamaica’s B team due to an OG right before the end of regulation that sent the game to OT.

    Grammys

    Was that the unseasonably tan white girl wearing a cowboy hat as Liberace accompanied her on piano? The Grammys are unwatchable.
  4. Just watched ESPN and some “Shams” guy, who is an NBA reporter for ESPN, said the following: ”This is the most stunning trade that I have ever been a part of.” WTF?!? Bro… you are NOT a part of this trade. You are a reporter! Try “This is the most stunning trade that I have ever covered.” My dad was ann editor at the Dallas Morning News when JFK was assassinated. He was in charge of determining what the paper needed to cover in town and where to send the local reporters. He was even at the banquet that JFK was in route to when the bullets went through JFK’s skull. My dad never once said: ”JFK’s assassination was the most memorable one that I was ever a part of.”
  5. …plus, your subject (chances) and your verb (is) do not agree, but keep posting. 👏👏💯
  6. If I remember correctly, Robison could block FGs/PATs like a mofo, because that guy could get up!
  7. Dale Brown had no problems buying players. That is how he could accumulate talent (a.k.a. “build a program”), but he sucked ass as a coach. Guy Lewis laughed at Dale Brown’s coaching chops.
  8. EASY explanation. Three words… COACH DALE BROWN
  9. CONFESSION TIME: I like Kadin Shedrick! There, I said it.
  10. Some of us are beginning to think so.
  11. Springfield has some massive hospital system. Don’t know specifics, but spent a night at a hotel last August that turned out to be some medium to long stay place for people receiving medical treatment at one of the hospital systems in town. Perhaps that was the refueling destination due to the ease of access from airport to medical care center if needed.
  12. Are we going to start a new thread every time there is another plane/helicopter crash? Or are we just going to roll them together so that we just have one, continuously updated thread?
  13. I don’t think that the guy who posted this realized how it sounds. #Phrasing
  14. Apparently YouTube is tracking my Surly thread views. This was just suggested viewing. …achieving orgasm without using your hands, you say? Who’s ever even heard of such a thing?

    Fire Aid

    My former flatmate in Buenos Aires is the nephew of Sting’s guitarist for the last 3+ decades. A cousin has been added to the band in the last few years. So I’m pulling for Sting to have many more years of success so that Tío Dom will continue his run.
  16. He’s getting released no matter what. True or not, and I think that it is, he’s gone. That’s one of the two reasons, if not the only reason, that this is coming out now. He’s gone.

  18. 💯 Doubt that this is new information to the Ravens organization. Whether this bad year was due to the divorce proceedings or was just age, my guess is that this provides the perfect excuse to cut ties. If the tip didn’t come from the Ravens, then it came from his wife’s legal team. The timing pretty much eliminates all other possibilities. 👆 Houston Texans Playbook
  19. Are we talking about tiddies here?
  20. Either a JET JT-300, supposedly the necks are nice for the price or maybe I visit the big Thomann store in Germany if I make it to Stuttgart before/after my visit to the UK. There I could try oodles of cheapo guitars. I am at the opposite end of most buyers in this thread.
  21. Because perhaps it wasn’t really “a routine training exercise”.
  22. This started in 2000. Calling out “elites” who thought they were smarter than other people. It was a successful PR strategy. It has grown over the last 25 years.
  23. I have been thinking about possibly buying a guitar this summer in Europe. If I do, and it’s a bolt on, I was planning on separating the neck and packing it in a checked bag. Maybe check the neck and put the body in my carry-on. Don’t understand why this isn’t common.
