  1. This game is far from a walk in the park.
  2. I know I know, i was pulling a Saban. He called them Memphis St on gameday and X went nuts with all the olds giving him props
  3. They ran away, she'll be fine once cooler heads prevail. They both signed the note (see the plus sign under his name?) regarding skipping town and then he added "see you on the other side" as a footnote...just my take. Ditched the phones, likley on drugs/bender.
  4. Schedule reads weird...right, then down left, then right again etc.... BC is next game then a bye before Memphis St and Keith Lee, Baskerville Homes et al come to Tally.
  5. Not odd at all, as the car was picked up on surveillance (toll booth?) in Colorado, it was not at the new apartment after the night of the disappearance. ***MORE UPDATE All we know about the car is that it went through a reader in colorado on 1-25 Friday evening Unless you are referring to the property manager's car, the post upthread said the vehicle was already spotted in CO.
  6. agreed. i passed on those in op...Allen Edmonds and several other have better options and a lot less
  7. Fleeting days of summer in OBA.
  8. wealth concentration= consolidation , thus less of an owner/people/investor pool. That's the way Interpret it.
  9. That's the way I understand it and that would be a travesty. With split Congress I cant see that going anywhere. To add that to the discourse, if there is a net loss on paper is that then deductible? Talk about a cluster of epic proportions. Only one who wins in that case is tax preparers. This will also lead to a boon in IRA, thus taking discretionary dollars out of the economy, which is 75% of the economy, loss sales tax, GDP etc..less tax revenue.
  10. Yes that is correct. A war weary US populous and Patton's own hubris prevented that, on whole. There were other factors, but the most notably Patton, as popular as he was with his own men, was equally disdained by the Brittish and basically forced into retirement. That is one reason why his death was so eery. Some believe it was a hit, I do not. But he was not well liked and the command and control of that theatre was ready for him to go back to the states.
  11. The only thing remember about Melton's RB career here is the option play at tOSU where he pulled up at the goal line just a tad and kept the buckeyes in it. Of course we got a safety on the next play or two, but GDGD calling an option to our power back at the 1 damn near cost us.
  12. plus practice squad reps to give our D a better back to go against in addition to what you mentioned. Blue, Wisner, Gibson, Davis, another athlete will likely all get meaningful carries first, but doesnt hurt to have this guy in the mix.
  13. TAMU is getting the home game first in all 3 announced HTH matchups. Football, VB and MBB. Wonder if we may can get baseball at home. Of course MBB in January is aok with me as the students will not be on campus, but i know it will still be packed.
  14. No doubt, when all of this started, I did the same based on a rec on this thread. Very telling piece. I had read some on Stalin while reading Patton's book and the ethos of the Russian soldier always intrigued me. For those that have not read it, as @Gatorubet noted, it is a first hand account of what it is like to be in the Russian army, it will blow you away. Louis Gossett Jr making Richard Gere do pullups and pushups in the rain is romper room as a comparison.
  15. My gut tells me they have an A team, B team etc...they put the loyalists together with the good armaments and what little in the way of good supplies they have...they give the scrubs feathered in with the regulars certain assignments. They likely have a couple hundred thousand of the sufficiently trained army men. Then the rest is the scrubs and they give them shit. They use the blocking brigades to keep the worst of the bunch (convicts, scripts, foreigners, ne'er do wells) in place and more or less dont count on them doing much accept cannon fodder, placeholders etc...from what I've been able to ascertain from this thread , and reading One Soldiers War, they mix in plenty of the scrubs with the A team to use as needed for sniffing out the enemy positions and don't need the blocking brigade as the regulars keep them in the front using techniques such as alcohol, threat of torture, bullying and outright beatings. Complete fubar in that entire outfit, like a big neighborhood bully that all it takes in someone to punch them in the face and depants them. Which i pray is happening or will happen.
  16. well that seems good.

    Western Novels

    Its been awhile since I read The Son, was my description close? Layered story? I read BM based on recommendations on this thread, its a ball-breaker to read and i will likely need to read again as there were many passages that went right over my head.

    White Tennies

    A little late to the party on this new-to-me phenomenon. Thinking about inking up on these bad boys for a swanky beach-chic (the fuck does that mean?) party coming up in Sept. Anyone own a pair?

    Western Novels

    The Son, great book about a multi-generational family along the Texas-Mexico border. Combines a modern story with 1900 era cattle/Cowboy feud that bubbles over to the current family saga, very good. Cormac's Blood Meridian is a hard read but its about as western as it gets. If you want an Indian slant, Empire of the Summer Moon is an outstanding Comanche/early Texan oral history.
  21. those are fuckin sweet
  22. Newish Tecovas , really liking them and old faithful luccheses, prior to a recent shine.
  23. Snowmass was awesome this past winter. My first time to Aspen and really enjoyed it. Splurged for an instructor on day 1 to learn the mountain and maximize terrain, minimize lift line. Didnt do Ajax or Highlands, as we had novice skiiers on the trip too.
  24. Lets make sure to get the Gold Medalist Horn Crouser in the building for his recruitment.
