  1. Yeah, in real life he moved to Houston and attended Bellaire HS before returning to Huntsville to play baseball at Sam Houston State.
  2. Yeah, but I find it interesting that Pink’s team (or maybe not his team) went undefeated the following season only to lose in the first round of the Texas state playoffs.
  3. Assuming Lee is Huntsville HS (which by all accounts, it is) according to Google, the Hornets went 10-1 in 1976, which means they went undefeated in the regular season only to get bounced in the first round of the playoffs. They would win it all in 1980, though. The year after Mitch Kramer graduated.
  4. I love Rudy and Paco’s, but The Steakhouse is a solid consolation. It’s on par with Vic & Anthony’s, or at least it was a few years back.
  5. My weather app has the heat index going over 110° for the next 8 days.
  6. I like Fletch better than every movie ever made that didn’t have Chevy Chase chewing scenery.
  7. Don't pick it up, Greg!!!!!!
  8. I always liquor on Sundays.
  9. Dodged a bullet with that 2003 game.
  10. My family rented Top Gun on a weekend I was staying at a friend’s house. It was returned to the video store before I could watch it. That was it. I missed my window and have gone 35 years since being someone who’s never watched Top Gun. It’s nice to be someone.
  11. Not knocked out, but funny:
  12. This makes sense. While Cheers was winding down, Kelsey Grammer was getting movie offers, so he had leverage when NBC started discussing spinoff ideas with him. He told them that he felt the Frasier-Lilith storyline had ran its course, so they came back to him with the idea of him having traditional marriage type comedy with a brother character.
  13. FullSizeRender.MOV
  14. Great read. Thanks for posting.
  15. “Everybody wants to rule the World”
  16. Hadn't heard that name in a while. I was working for a production company at the time and shot the Thunderhorse sailout at Ingleside back in 2006. First and last time I ever pointed a camera at something moving under 0.5 mph for 8 straight hours. /CSB
  17. The license plate really ties the room together.
  18. An Allied POW soccer team, with Rocky playing keeper, beating a Nazi German super team is a ludicrous plot, but Victory kicks ass and I’ll watch it any chance I get.
  19. The rats speech from Skyfall is a personal favorite.
  20. I would love to sleep my way to the top. That sounds awesome.
  21. This is really well done.
  22. I left The Shining off the list above mainly because of how much Stephen King hated Kubrick’s interpretation. I also would rank it just behind Stand By Me and Shawshank.
  23. It’s notable that neither of the two best King film adaptations are of the horror genre and one of them was a short story: Stand By Me and Shawshank.
