  1. Big Tamale strikes again, gobbling up all the competition
  2. DFW says hold my beer. 635 has been under construction since the time of the dinosaurs.
  3. Friend of mine's kid took this smaller buck at our place years back with a .300BK with a can. With subs the receiver is the loudest part of the process and the impact of the rounds. Great for hunting in a blind where you can talk the shooter through the steps without ear protection.
  4. My treasured SI Texas football and autographed pic from Mack post graduation
  5. Oddsmakers in Vegas scrambling to update their odds on Norvell FSU NIL Violations
  6. The only TV we have at the ranch is a crappy TV/VCR combo I picked up at a pawn shop with Lonesome Dove playing on a loop. I've seen it eleventy billion times. Never gets old.
  7. Listened to a podcast Nate was on and his story about how me made the team. Pretty cool to have him unpack it like he did. He basically walked on at practice, and I think it was Mad Dog that had a soft spot for soldiers who talked to Mack and gave him his shot. He spent months and months learning to deep snap and the rest is history.
  8. Not just from a recreational space that everyone thinks is the reason so many people own them, but from a practicality perspective, no other option can be modified and adapted to suit any of a hundred different applications. They're the next iteration in technology - one rifle can be modified for long distance shooting in the morning, and then modified again for CQB work in the afternoon, then altered again to hunt with in the evening. Just swap out barrels and optics, uppers if you want a different caliber choice.
  9. This is all correct. Also correct is that AR's are awesome guns. They are fun and easy to operate. The evolution of technology is inevitable and playing out before our eyes. They also check every box. With a single rifle you have the application of hunting, recreation, and home defense. Then you can take it a step further and get into the customization aspect. You can buy different uppers in different calibers. Mount any conceivable type of optic on them. Change out barrel/stock lengths. If you have younger shooters, there is no easier platform to learn to shoot with.
  10. Apparently the campus has gone through massive upgrades in facilities, building, expansion, etc. Too lazy to look up enrollment numbers pre/post Saban, but I'm assuming it's gone up quite a bit
  11. They have the money. Friend is a AL alum, he talks all the time about the BILLIONS Saban has brought to the school over the years in donations, etc. Not saying that's all athletic money, but they can easily afford to buyout Lanning is they think he's their guy
  12. This was my point as well. Minus two exceptional coaching runs, AL isn't the end all, be all of destinations. You still have to have your shit together to make it work. Pressure is going to be weapons-grade
