  1. This was good for the team to play like shit for 3.5 quarters and have to pull out an ugly win.
  2. Wow Five Thirty Eight has the Rockets at a 65% chance to win the title.
  3. Magic number vs Toronto is 2. Assuming we win tonight, we could clinch tomorrow if Toronto loses in Boston.
  4. Gerald Green and Zhou Qi should starts.
  5. GS down 20 going into 4th.
  6. BuffBurger is solid. Greenspoint isn’t lying about the floor. I’ve been going there since they opened and have probably been a couple dozen times. I’ve witnessed no less than three people bust their asses with what looked like fairly painful falls.
  7. Agreed - this place is solid. Another really good burger is a food truck at 59 between hillcroft and bellair called Rehla Foods. https://www.rehlafoods.com/
  8. The most interesting thing at this point is who finishes at 7 to face GS.
  9. Down goes GS
  10. On a related note, with the traffic they get on Sundays, Costco would be making well above incremental sales. I imagine the same would hold true for the others like Target, Sam’s, and Walmat. And liquor is heavily taxed with that additional revenue going to the state. There’s no legitimate reason for prohibiting stores from selling liquor on Sundays. If they want to stay closed, so be it.
  11. Sorry but I don’t believe this. And even assuming for the sake of argument it is true, those stores are free to stay closed on Sundays to their hearts’ content, while other stores are open for business. But to have a statewide law prohibiting all stores from selling alcohol on Sundays, whether they want to or not, is just silly and archaic and anticompetitive and discriminatory in the sense that most other states do not have such arbitrary restrictions. Why shouldn’t someone in a supposedly free market be able to sell their goods when they want to?
  12. If you’re paying money for food it counts
  13. Another RIP
  14. Probably belongs in the unpopular opinions thread that doesn’t exist here but I always thought Hubcap was overrated, especially the Shady Grove location which was just abysmal. And to top it off the downtown location always had a no credit card policy and the owner was a complete dick about it, as if being cash only in the 4th largest city in the country was just like every other restaurant. But he had his own ATM with above average fees.
  15. Only need 18 more threes to beat the all time record we set last year.
  16. No mention of the Amigo sighting?
  17. Tejas is really hit or miss these days and hasn't been very good the last couple of times I've been.
  18. Yes, and family is broadly defined. So the cousins and in laws of the dancing monkey in the Spec's commercials all have 5 stores.
  19. Hopefully, this is the first step towards getting rid of the Sunday prohibition. The Texas Package Stores Association has always argued that even if stores could open on Sundays, they would prefer to stay closed because paying employees for an extra work day is more than what the sales would be. Costco, Walmart, Target, etc. aren't going to be this lazy.
  20. More than 30 states already allow the Costcos and Walmarts of the world to sell liquor. They still have plenty of liquor stores.
  21. Because it’s not Costco selling the liquor. It’s WB Liquor.
  22. https://www.texastribune.org/2018/03/21/judges-ruling-would-let-consumers-buy-booze-walmart-and-costco/
  23. I won HQ the other day, but so did enough other assholes that it wasn't all that much money.
  24. So Pappas finally makes good barbecue...in Clear Lake.
  25. This is a good list. I assume you mean kaffir lime leaves. I would add lemongrass (can be kept in freezer), gochugang, Thai shrimp paste, tapioca flour, Kewpie mayo.
