  1. It's magical, and you have no soul. Shit, I was never into bee-bee guns and I loved the movie as a kid. Jean Shepherd's narration is wonderful.
  2. To my eyes it looked like he lost some quickness. Then again, he came back to a Charlie Strong coached team that had a shitty offense with shitty QB play. Not sure Reggie Bush would have looked good on that team
  3. If you do, let me know what you find out. My daughter is a freshman at Oregon, and has a healthy merit scholarship that's taken a very nice dent out of the nonresident tuition. If the lack of a FAFSA jeopardizes that, then I'll suck it up and do it.
  4. Yeah, that was a weird take. He's a true freshman who's never taken a snap, and coming off an Achilles injury. Not sure why Funk Dr. gave him the label as our "primary back." And we'll see how Clark recovers. Jonathan Gray was never the same after his Achilles injury, though many think he didn't have a lot of mileage left after getting overworked in high school.
  5. The Surly tailgate is always solid. Check out the specific tailgate thread for details.
  6. What is the consequence of not completing the FAFSA after my kid is already in college? Can the university withhold merit aid?
  7. We play New Orleans on Thursday evening.
  8. That list seems rather long. Haven't really followed OU this season. Are any of those transfers other than Nic Anderson worth a shit?
  9. I'll add that I watched two series over the past year that surprised me as much better than I expected: Jack Ryan and Reacher.
  10. Season 4 hasn't come out yet. The expected release is in June 2025. Leon was such an incredible character. Really the glue for that whole cast.
  11. It's all relative. I don't think anyone here is over-hyping Colorado's season But if you consider that program since Vince Young & Co. beat the ever-living shit out of the Buffaloes in the 2005 Big XII title game, it's been absolute garbage. Until Deion went 9-3 this year, Colorado had exactly two winning seasons after 2005 -- 10-4 with Mike MacIntyre and 4-2 with Karl Dorrell in a shortened 2020 season. Colorado football has sucked ass for the last two decades, and for them to go 9-3 this year two seasons removed from a 1-11 record is remarkable, even in a mediocre conference, and Deion deserves a good share of the praise.
  12. I resisted West Wing for a long time. When it aired on NBC, it seemed to me like it might be too preachy with too much of a liberal bent. My wife convinced me to binge it with her a few years ago when we were dating, and it didn't take long to get me hooked. Fantastic story lines, characters, acting, dialogue, and pace. One of my favorite TV series of all time. And yeah, it slants more to the left. I mean, it's a Democratic administration, so you have to expect that going in. But I didn't think it was too liberal dominant. However, I'd be curious to hear what a politically conservative viewer might think.
  13. Gilbert got booed at home. I seen it. Never heard our stadium collectively boo Ewers.
  14. Both would be a breadly combination.
  15. Mack Brown obviously lobbied for Fred Claus to make the cut.
  16. Bullshit bracket without Santa Claus is Cummin' to Town, The Buttcracker, and Dick the Halls.
  17. Psst, his Corvette is leased.
  18. Can I interest them in Maalik Murphy?
