  1. #20 Ute LB Barton, Texas got a visit from him. He’s making tackles all over the field. 6’4 220 …and I went to jr high in CA with his dad. Csb. No really kid is balling just make the tackle on the punt and had the tackle on the 4th down play
  2. When our GI's suspected a German spy had made their way in to the squad, , they would ask the perp who played centerfield for the Yankees or who Dizzy Dean played for. Very Shibboleth
  3. There was a notable SEC SEC SEC at the end of the Sugar Bowl where kicked the shit out of Georgia.
  4. I have skied CO many times , but it’s been 20 years. How does Breck stack up to Steamboat, Keystone and Purgatory (iirc called Durango now or it may have reverted back)
  5. Can someone give me the skinny on Breckenridge? After 4-5 years at Park City, we’re planning on Breck At Christmas-NYE week.
  6. This is probably the post you are referring to: Catalon was running with the 3s, which is consistent with what the 9.95s have said. My gut tells me that is due to a few things, but I don’t know shit so take it for what it’s worth; they are likely trying to protect him to a certain degree. Playing 3rd string when you’re at his level, the game is much slower and he can work into things. Learning the playbook against Kai money(eg) as opposed to X, makes it a little easier and lastly just getting him reps after coming off reconstructive shoulder surgery 9-10 mos ago , second season lost to injury. He’ll play and play a lot , but smart money is on bringing him along slowly
  7. I heard it and I forgot I saw it and I rememberd I did it and I understood
  8. Herman's disdain for 3 points and/or field position (particularly very early in a game or very late) was maddening. Hubris, over-confidence , whatever it was , I really hope Sark doesn't fall in to that trap this year. He had tendencies last year that way and that's how you let shitty teams hang around
  9. Yeah I guess so. In the end they got convicted, but his defense would have to be he only had one bullet in his gun and he thought he removed it. Weak defense imo. Eventually, Elward removed a bullet from his gun, forced Jenkins onto his knees and put the gun into his mouth, the document stated. Elward fired the gun, which did not discharge, then racked the slide, put the gun back in Jenkins’ mouth and pulled the trigger again, according to the document. The bullet lacerated Jenkins’ tongue, broke his jaw and went out through his neck.
  10. I dont understand how attempted murder is not one of the charges? Jackson MS, first no water, now '60's era racial shit, man come on Mississippi.
  11. I recently read One Soldier's War by Babchenko about his experience in Chechyna. In '91 Dudayev (former Russian Pilot) seized control of the region and expelled the Russian army. Lawlessness and chaos ensued and by the end of '94, a full blown war broke out to take Chechyna back. 100% of the RU military horrors we are seeing in Ukr took place in Chechyna, but on both sides. The evil that permeates their culture is not new. The Chechynan war was fought in cities, though there were some rural battles...for the most part it was street by street, urban warfare. Mass city bombings, total disregard for civilian lives etc...the picture this guy paints of the lack of training, leadership, total disregrad for a military hierarchy and structure was incredible. Hard to believe a superpower would have such little infrastructure...it was a total slog, fubar type stuff. No supply chain, lack of food, water, basic neccessities to arm a fighting force, it really was every man for themselves. I read the book mostly b/c I wanted to learn why/where this present day culture came from and my feeling is the history of what we saw in Chechyna and what we are seeing in UKR goes back to Lenin, Stahlin and back as far as that country has existed. Save for the fact they have oil money....take that away and Russia is closer to a third world country than any modern society. Patton was correct, we should have marched our boys all the way to Moscow and pushed the RU out of Germany, I think had we done that, perhpas the last 60 - 70 years history is different, but that's another matter.
  12. Night Rider's Lament, such a great song! Gets me dusty everytime. As i remember it: "....he tells me last night I run on to Jenny....he tells me you sure missed the track when you never come back...shes the perfect professional's wife.. she asks me why just he ride for his money, why does he rope for short pay..he must have gone crazy out there.."
  13. Rich may be a Hornfan but Cowboy Troy is a TexasEx, he was on campus same time as me. He is the fella that adds a hip hop element to several of their songs, heck of a nice guy. Back when Jdhorn92 was making the regular Dallas country bar scene (Borrowed Money, Cowboys, D&D, Top Rail etc..) in the 90's, he and I always talked Texas football. Great guy, he hung out with our crew periodically, he was always welcome. At the time, he was an aspiring singer....guess he found his niche.
  14. Discussion of Jerry Jeff Walker up thread a bit..he has a version of Something About a Boat, outstanding.
  15. Cool story bro. In summer of '91 I was laying in the pool at our Frat house kicking back. A couple girls i knew (wish i had picks) came by and asked if i wanted to go to Luckenbach and see JJW and Chris Wall. I told them all i had was $20. A 12 er of Keystone and a few tacos from Jack-n-the crack later we were on our way. One of my best memories of west campus days. Great night, so much fun. Blew chuncks out by the washer pit to clear some room ha! . What a night. late 80's- early 90's was peak JJW, probably saw him 10 times, i used to get his newsletter but never made it to his festival though down in Belize. RIP legend
  16. Mods can delete this. W/O going all CR, Trump created an industry right before our eyes. We knew he was a grifter, but gotdam he shit an entire ecosystem of which to monetize. For the most part the white hoods were in the deep shadows until CVL. Hillary was spot on when she coined the phrase 'deplorables' and Trump was happy to walk right threw that door and profiteer off these people.
  17. yeah to me this is the most egregious part of the whole deal. At best he and/or his team are complete idiots with no concept of how to run a brand, fact check, attention to detail etc... At worst he's a total racist. The newspaper article is not in the music video. That article was part of a promotional video for the song, and in that short promo video, the article used as a 'backdrop', details how a non-racist MS newspaperman got "run out of town" for calling out the racists. Sheesh Aldean is a dumbass.
  18. Bama Chick gets it, this is spot on imo. I have a daughter at AU, pledged last year and is heading back to Auburn for rush next week. According to her, grades were a weed out for sure, I asked if she was going to look after one of her incoming freshman buddies from our town, but her first comment was she doesnt have the scores/grades to get into her house. So fwiw , grades, social media and charity work through HS are super important. All in all, a very positive experience for her. I was in a frat at Texas and still hang out/communicate with 15-20 guys ive known since fall '88 and we're pushing mid-50s now.
  19. Meme stock mania Monday is coming. Look for AMC to go nuts , as shorts try to cover. Going to be interesting.
  20. I dont know who sings Fast Car ( redux version), but its not Luke Bryan
