  1. Here's my list:

    Paul Thomas Anderson - Inherent Vice

     

    Martin Scorsese - Wolf of Wall Street (unpopular opinion)

     

    Steven Speilberg - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Ready Player One, War of the Worlds

     

    Ridley Scott - Robinhood, Exodus: Gods and Kings

     

    Honorable Mention: Lady Killers (Cohen Brothers) Downsizing (Alexander Payne)

     

    I was going to list Oliver Stone. But is he a good director? He has had some great movies (Talk Radio, Wall Street, Platoon, Born on the 4th of July, JFK), but he has a laundry list of bad movies, he has declined big time. Same goes for M Night Shyamalan, his bad to good ratio is bad. 

    Am I missing anyone?

     

     

     

  2. Stumbled upon this last night. The 1939 game between Tech and Centenary. 

    Quote

    The 1939 Texas Tech vs. Centenary football game was an American college football game played between the Texas Tech Red Raiders and Centenary Gentlemen on November 11, 1939, at Centenary College Stadium in Shreveport, Louisiana. In "one of the weirdest games in NCAA History, "torrential downpour and muddy field conditions prevented either Texas Tech or Centenary from advancing the ball by running or passing. To cope with the conditions, both teams resorted to repetitive and immediate punting. Both teams combined to punt 77 times. With each punt, both teams hoped to recover a fumble at the other end of the field.

    THE DANIEL HOLTZCLAW ALLEGATIONS, INVESTIGATION AND TRIAL; A CLOSER LOOK

    1/24/2016  (updated 4/30/2018) OKC, OK – by Brian Bates — On January 21, 2016, former Oklahoma City police officer Daniel Holtzclaw, 29, was sentenced to 263 years in prison after an Oklahoma County jury found him guilty of 18 sexual assault related crimes against eight female accusers. Holtzclaw was acquitted of 18 other sexual assault related crimes against an additional five female accusers.

    What comes next I’ve written and re-written dozens of times in an attempt to accurately, concisely and fairly portray what I personally witnessed in regards to this investigation, trial, and aftermath.

    I'm not simply going to give you my opinion of Daniel Holtzclaw's guilt or innocence. I want to qualify that opinion. But more than that, I want to provide insights to this case that were never reported and never considered by a public that has been all too eager to redefine Daniel Holtzclaw as the poster child for decades of abuse against minorities, by those with not only the ability to do so, but presumably an almost unquestionable authority to do so.

    In this article, I intentionally stay away from theories, race, backgrounds, jury makeup/influences and the “why’s?” (except where evidentiary). I want to limit this article to just the facts as they appear in discovery documents, were presented in open court and have been revealed since the trial.

    Not long after Daniel Holtzclaw was arrested and criminally charged, I was called and asked by his defense lawyer, Scott Adams, to take a look at this case and give my opinion. That conversation went something like this….

    Man, I thought this guy was a total douchebag that got caught. The video of his sentencing where he cried and cried was funny to watch before I knew he may be innocent, now it's really sad.

     


    Not totally sure if he's completely innocent, but his case and the support he has received from truthers is compelling.

    they have been buying and building shit all over Lubbock and the high plains (like Jody Nelson only with actual businesses) I wondered how they were getting it done because there is no magic formula in the auto business

    fucking with your floor plan is a major no no I don't see how they pull out of this
