  1. USC loses a verbal
  2. Dahmer style
  3. Hopefully she gets death penalty
  4. The fumble was not a miracle. We have had plenty of late game turnovers go our way. That’s football. Couple of note; the ARk qb 4q fumble in fayettnam, the year we had Vince and Cedric. Also the fumble Drew Kelson forced up in the shoe, preserved our momentum late. We were on the benefit of a late non fumble up in Ames years ago too. These things happen all the time. The other one was the Aaron Ross forced fumble in Neb that allows us to kick a walkoff fg , by a walk-on K
  5. The juco lefty kicker Scott scheready was nails
  6. Yeah no doubt...I know its not a fair comparison, but i see some Jamal Charles in his style. JC was another level of back, an all-timer, but there are some similarities like the 'forward lean' in his running. JC had tremendous hips and a wiggle to augment his power for a speed guy. Some forget his tackle on the OSU LB after Vince's int in the shoe. Also, is reception and the tackle he broke in that game showed his strength. IIRC he was only a FR that year.
  7. Hey now. I was born in Lynwood (mom went to Lynwood High), Dad was from Compton (Dominguez), csb. Couple summers ago we drove from LA to Carmel/Monterrey (sp?) and back, up through Big Sur. Spent 1 night in Santa Barbara, stayed at a boutique Marriott (wouldnt rec for kids) and ate at Joes...spent another night in Morro Bay before getting to our final stop.
  8. Can’t wait for this game. We need to pay them back for the last few years.
  9. Bama has @TN and @Olemiss. I think they split, winning in Knoxville and losing in the Grove. That will likely knock them out of the SEC title game. UGA runs the table and SEC gets 2 in. UGA Bama Semi is likely if UGA rolls the rebels. Strength of schedule will bite the Rebles, as the Texas win will be deciding factor the committee points to. In that scenario, OSU, Clemson, UGA and Bama would get in, assuming Cowboys dont win out, which given their history, is very likely. Bama struggles in Oxford, add in the Kiffin factor and its a dicey game for Bama late in the season.
  10. well that doesn't suck. One more weapon for the QE and co.
  11. What kind of TE is JB? I assume those two passes to Helm, will now go to JB, and if he has some kick to him, we may could have got a few more YAC
  12. Rojo to me is a Chris obobnaya clone. Where did the former Strake Jesuit rb go in the draft?
  13. You guys won’t believe this story. Spent The Weeknd in Seaside FL for my kid’s fall break. Listened to Craig Way from the beach pounding beers. Stepped in to the house for lunch and watched most of the 3q before heading back to my spot. About 3:30 I made my way back to the house , loaded up my wagon, chairs , cooler, Bose etc and stopped for a Cuban sandwich right there by the crosswalk in front of the little half moon shaped entrance to the main Seaside area. Mrs JD horn and my 3 daughters , plus a friend went to the outlet (no pics), giving me a hall pass for the bama game later that night. A couple horn fans came by as I was eating my Cuban and we chatted about the game , high fived etc… Fast forward a few hours and I make my way to Bud and Alleys for the bama game. I run in to those same Texas fans and they have a table and one of them is a huge bama fan too, so we talk a bit and bs until I see a spot at the bar open up. I excuse myself and almost immediately, the lady and her date (I presume husband/bf) start asking me questions ; who are you rooting for (i show my Texas belt), as i was using an Auburn coozie (my oldest is at AU) etc..I tell them I’m a Texas grad , but that I’m pulling 100% for bama as I can’t stand Aggie. She proceeds to tell me she is an Aggie grad and can’t believe I wouldn’t be rooting for the “state”. I tell her as politely as I could , In my mind it just doesn’t work like that. for 2.5 hours the conversations were very pleasant , she keeps adding that she can’t believe I’m rooting for bama , I keep telling her I hate the aggies , and she proceeds to get completely shit faced. here’s why i posted …toward the end of the game, she leans over and tells me the most god awful racist joke right in front of Her date (by this time I learn it’s a blind date) the joke is awful, like as bad a N word joke as there is. She looks at me kind of blankly, like why aren’t you laughing (her date wasn’t either), and I tell her as calmly as I can , now you know why I hate the aggies. I have her card , I could out her, as being a racist . She owns an engineering firm in Montgomery AL
  14. Jonathan Brooks ran hard late in the game. Killer B’s next year running the ball. Brooks, Blue and Baxter
  15. We got the killer Bs next year. Baxter, blue and brooks.
  16. Wait, chitowndoc is a sooner?
  17. Just curious, what did you dislike? I may be a little bias, as i was a kid in the 80's living in Orange County so I could kind of relate. We would often sleep with windows wide open or the slider open to let the cool air come in. We lived in one of those bedroom communities near mile square park where homes were separated by the cinder block fences that the killer was able to easily navigate from one house to the next and get to roof tops with no problem, easy escape route. Overall I found it really good. It read like a horror novel imo.
  18. Made for an awesome book though. Hate she missed the big finale.
  19. I agree with all of that. The note I would add is I dont think the Afghan conflict went south for us. Losing one soul over there was too many, but 1,900 US service members in 20 years to hostile action is a lot lower than many thought going in, considering we were in a guerilla war. Gulf War 1, going over the burm, a buddy told me he was told "1 of 2", meaning when they went in, the CO's were told to expect 50% casualty rate going in initially. Fast forward to Afghan, and we performed exceptionally well IMO. The exit was messy, that may be what you meant, if so , i agree, but really there were few options w/o going all CR. We wrecked shop on ISIS and the Taliban, something the RU army never could accomplish. Our boys over there were nails all things considered. Those people dont want peace, its not in their DNA.
  20. From your keyboard to God's ears. This would put China on a political Island, with no true super-power ally. RU broken up to a dozen separate Republics would be a geo-political realignment not seen in generations. Latvia, Lithuania, Slovenia all seem to be doing fairly well. Without RU backing commy regimes, we could end up with several Ukraines all wanting to align with the EU/West
  21. What you see in the background is the "high" part of the causeway, so sportfishing boats with large towers can get out to and from the gulf and back to safe harbor. Leading to that large expanse is a causeway that is almost flush with the IC and that has a large chunk missing, completely different than this picture you commented on, which is on the land.
  22. That project has been a massive problem. The current owner is Allegiant Air, so there will be plenty of jorts inhabiting that place. Its on Charlotte Harbor in Punta Gorda. Im sure some will find it worthwhile. It will be the equivalent of a cheap cruise in a hotel with no beach.
  23. I should clarify, i stay there on business 1x per month....likely will be awhile before i head back down there.
  24. I stay at that hotel, 3 points Sheraton. That is a picture of their Tiki Bar. Toast now.
  25. Nat gas , no. But oil to the chicoms and Indians is a full go and has been this whole 6 mos. According to Reuters, record number of imports in fact. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/china-extends-record-imports-russian-oil-into-june-cuts-saudi-supply-trade-2022-07-06/
