Chuys is fun I won't deny. Papas has just never worked for me.
Mostly I just don't see the point in chain Mexican food places when every small town has some hole in the wall Mexican joint and the vast majority of them are dang good. That isn't even considering all the greasy dives that populate large towns.
If you have never had fajitas at Guadalajara del Centro in downtown Houston you are missing out. They also make some queso Blanco that is just this side of heaven.
Thats harsh. Is it touristy? Yes. Blows? No.
That would be Bill Millers BBQ or Papasitos.
Love me some Pappadeaux, Pappas steakhouse, Yia Yia Mary's, and even Pappas burger.....but the Mexican and BBQ joints are about even with something Fertita would own....
We are onto BBQ now?
Kruetz in Lockhart has been great forever.
Franklin's is good...but there is too much good BBQ to wait in line
Snows again good but overhyped. Its dang good BBQ but nothing is worth some of the waits some of these idiots wait for.
Louie Millers is exceptional especially when they have 44 farms brisket.
Southside BBQ in Elgin is divine especially if you like sausage and ribs
Coopers in Llano was still dang good last time I had it
Zekes in the booming metropolis of Windthorst makes some very good BBQ
Giddings meat market is good especially if you get the Chicken
None of the Mikeska joints have ever impressed me
County line is gross.
Blacks is ok...
Smittys was decent the one time I ate there
Killens is good
Mt Zion Baptist church in Huntsville cooked some good meat at one time.
Goode Co, Pappas, central Texas, Bill Millers are all garbage.
It's a question of simple accounting........What do you want to see happen to the donations and season ticket sales next year if Herman is here. Plus, consider the in general depressing effect such a cloud over the football program would have on every other athletic programs donations and enthusiasm......
Luke Fickel(as an example) would not generate the buzz of Meyer nor reinvigorate the program to the same level, but there are plenty of people that would jump right back on the train for next season if Fickel was hired that will not do so if Herman is still here.
I don't entirely disagree....
But to be the devils advocate.....We fired Mackovic before we hired Mack.........That was actually my most enjoyable/least stressful coaching search....
Literal text I got today. He's not a BMD by any means but he is connected to a lot of people...... I am obviously of a different opinion......I will give him credit though....he was right that we should have hired James Franklin instead of Charlie.
"not a fan of this move . I like Herman . He took over a depleted program and I think has done a decent job. Part of the reason to get rid of him is the issue of the players and the eyes of Texas issue . Cancel culture strikes again ."
Herman is gone. Even the 2 people I have spoken to that are somewhat connected that think he shouldn't be gone are resigned to the fact that he is gone.
It would work on Surly in heartbeat.
If CDC came on here and said stop posting or I hire Jeff Fisher instead of Meyer this board thread would go silent.
Guys.....it's obvious....CDC only floated the Jeff Fischer name to keep the alumni in line and quail any restlessness regarding buyout etc......He's got this.
How do I know this is all BS...........it wouldn't be hush hush through back channels and secret in the know idiots if he said no. It would be out there. Freaking hacks.
Well based of rumor, innuendo, and hotel curtain analysis by the surly csi team cross referenced against data points by the flightaware analytics dept CDCs had this thing the bag for 2 months.
