  1. This. I think the jags sold him on being able to do football without the stress of recruiting and having more family time. I don’t think he wanted another college job.
  2. My grandmother lives between Bamberg and Bayreuth, about 30 minutes to each. Nurnberg and Rothenburg are both roughly the same distance from her, and that’s the two places we hit if we are looking for a Christmas market. Hard to beat either one, but they are very different. I honestly don’t remember Bamberg having a true Chrismas market, unless it’s not in the city center, which would be weird.
  3. Yea, it’s great, but going up the tower in the winter sucks balls. The Kathe Wolfhart store there is ridiculous too for Christmas stuff. I’m also a big fan of Nurnberg’s market. Nurnberger brats are unique and worth the trip, and there is plenty of feurzagenbowle to keep you warm. We always run around the Bavaria/Franconia area of Germany, so I can’t help much outside of that.
  4. I had no idea that NP had shut down and wound up eating there by accident while looking for a sandwich. I thought it was good but I didn’t think it was better than Franklin. There was almost no one there that day either, maybe 3 tables being used on a Friday around lunch.
  5. Following that line of thinking, may want to check O-mart or H-mart for this stuff if you want it and it’s not in a local grocery store.
  6. Yea, I saw these used in Korea at high end beef and leaf places. Never thought about using them for smoking. Interdasting.
  7. FFS the thing weighs 2500 pounds. Can we stop thinking it’s plausible that they bought a storm shelter and buried it without anyone else involved and no one noticing? A 5x6x6 hole is significant, probably 8+ cubic yards with margins, and Brian didn’t strike me as someone used to manual labor. His parents are also on the small side. Those two flower beds that are made out of 2x12s aren’t holding that amount of dirt either. There is zero chance that the feds wouldn’t have noticed fresh digging in that yard if it happened in the last few weeks.
  8. Oh and there is a German bakery on Heights called Pfeifers. Great bread, pastries and cold cuts, but get there early. They sell out of good stuff quick.
  9. Drove that route a ton when my wife was going through chemo, never found anything good in between. Most of the good food in Killeen are small asian, Caribbean, or Latino joints. Best rec would probably be Arepitas. Venezeluan food in Heights, get the Parrillita. good Pho - Chau’s cafe good Thai - Tham Rab Thai good Korean - O Mart Cafe good Caribbean - Ava’s for south Killeen, Island Spice if you’re north of 190. good PR/Cuban - Killeen Nutritional Center (not a joke, it’s a WIC store / cafe, but they put out some bomb food, their Cuban sandwiches are the best I’ve found outside of Florida). If you want more of a sit down place, Coasta Caribe or Tex-Rican. There really aren’t any good BBQ joints in town, we go to the HEB on Stan Schleuter if we don’t have time to make our own

    Still annoyed that Dest chose Barca over Bayern. His skill set suits Bayern’s style of play so much more IMO. They make superstars out of FBs and playing opposite Davies would have been amazing to watch.
  11. Check your meter. That’s a massive hole, and I don’t see an aging couple doing it with a couple of shovels in any reasonable amount of time. The only realistic way to get it done (assuming it was done in response to Brian’s return for hiding) in a reasonable amount of time is with a backhoe.

    One thing I’ve learned is never to expect a healthy lineup with this group, especially where CP is involved. He takes plenty of knocks in league play and has a massive bullseye in concacaf. Dest seems injury prone as well. It’s great that we have viable alternatives emerging, because they will be necessary throughout the rest of qualifying. If we can field more than 80% of our starters for an entire window I’ll be amazed. Losing Pepi scares the shit out of me, because it’s a steep drop after him.
  13. Yes, dig a hole big enough for that 5'x'6 shelter. Easy day's work with a couple of shovels. .
  14. Yea, I know the type. It still has a vent grill to allow air exchange. I’m sure you could get it done in a day, but the only way that happens is with a professional install with heavy equipment. The alternative is a Shawshank style DIY where the parents got this done on their own to reduce a paper trail and keeping it under the radar of their neighbors, but that’s not happening fast. If this was done in response to Brian coming home and fessing up, I would think the feds would have noticed when they executed their search warrant.
  15. Shelters require ventilation, you can’t just drop a box in a hole and completely cover it. Well, I guess you can, but then it’s less of a shelter and more of a coffin with space for activities. I would also guess that’s a pretty easy paper trail to run down for the feds. It’s not like you can run down to Walmart and pay cash for a shelter and bring it home in the back of your pickup and have it buried without anyone noticing. You need someone to deliver the shelter. You need heavy equipment to dig a hole. You need to offload that soil somewhere. I don’t see anyone pulling that off without the neighbors remembering and/or there being receipts/memory from companies that did the work.

    Dest had run past the end line during the cross. There was no way anyone could be offside with a player in that position.

    Hoppe has to uncork that one.

    Yea, I’m amazed that the defender didn’t lay out and open it up. Dead legs may have saved him.

    Holy SHIT what a strike.

    Hoppe would be a great sub.

    I think Musah should move more central, we need someone to try to unlock their defense on the dribble. Weah has been kind of quiet which is surprising. He has the pace to beat the defender off the corner into the box to create a chance. He needs to study Alphonso Davies game.

    Musah is whipping in crosses with venom. MOAR!
  23. Yes, the firebox slides in and out. I have the starter coals in a chimney, the rest of the stuff is unlit. There is also a set of plates in the firebox to create a horseshoe shaped burn so the coals burn more slowly.
  24. Big thanks to @Both Tacos for parting with his MJH. Fired it yesterday for the first time and smoked some chicken wings. Ridiculously easy to get going compared to my offset. I’ll spare you guys the shot after saucing with Alabama white.

    Lol, my man had multiple pitch invasions and bullshit delays and hit the whistle dead on 7.
