  1. Tennessee went back and put up a bunch of fake championships, inside their stadium, based on obscure polls as well. Wife and I went to their spring game in 2016. Even she thought it was bush league.
  2. On a more personal note, I'd have to add TN's '97 title to the mix. They won a game against Syracuse on a b.s. pass interference call at the end of the game. Beat Florida in OT w/ 235 total yards of offense before OT started. They beat Arkansas at home because dumbass Clint Stoerner dropped the ball when trying to run out the clock. IIRC, they got to play FSU's 3rd string backup in the MNC game. They won 2-3 other games on plays late in the 4th quarter. Edit: I lived it as I had just met, what turned out to be, my wife. She was a soph at TN at the time.
  3. Hauser was so good, there were times when I wanted to jump through the screen and beat his ass myself.
  4. I had an on-the-fence answer until I recalled the words "single mom". If there are kids involved, then I'd bite the bullet regardless of the reasons you might have to not help out.

    To add, Pefok had a really good game above and beyond his goal. He probably should have had 2 assists to go with his goal. He also won just about any ball played forward.

    Pefok scores in the 31st min! Nice header.
  7. Sweet. I see Orbital mentioned two posts up. I came across this one last night during "insomnia time". It's very rare for me to rate an original song a "10", then a remix of the aforementioned also a "10". I had a near Zen moment about 5 years ago when riding my bike along the Atlantic Coast in Florida. Belfast (Orbital) came across my play list and the meshing of beautiful/exotic scenery + vacation + this song really got me. Anyway, this remix is less ambient and more "driven". (I can't think of a better word.) Do yourself a favor and turn it up before playing. Like most good electronica, you can't get a true sense w/o a good system or headphones.
  8. She offered to trade. It was kind of funny.
  9. This is going to sound like a Nate Bargatz bit but, Wife calls on the way home with the kids. They're stopping at Bahama Breeze (snow cone place). Do I want something? Sure. Pina Colada. 15 minutes later. Me after taking a sip: What the hell is this? Her: Pina colada and pickle juice. Me: What? Her: You asked for pina colada, but I know you also like pickle juice. Me, taking a deep breath:
  10. I didn't know this was Mogwai. I watched a series a few years ago called Les Revenants. Mogwai's soundtrack was absolutely perfect for the creepiness of the show.
  11. Completely agree. Just wondering how much suffering Sark is comfortable with per Ewers against Bama.
  12. I was just speaking to Sark having to balance fan expectations, NIL bigwigs who helped get QE here, player expectations, and, ultimately, what is best for the team. I guess I'm saying there's a lot of extraneous aspects to the decision.
  13. Same here. This seems as logical as anything I can think of per the balancing act of everyone involved.
  14. Csb incoming. I wanted to be a meteorologist growing up. In 9th grade, I wrote a letter to local met Troy Duncan. He responded with a suggestion to go to aggy. I gave up on meteorology on the spot.
  15. I helped Nolan's future daughter-in-law pass Oceanography. It was a Tue/Thu class, and she'd always miss Thursday's because she'd be hanging out at Nolan's ranch with her boyfriend (Reed?). She was super hot, so I had no problem taking copious notes during Thursday lectures. /csb
  16. Yep. That was a rough scene. Seeing the hard-ass, main character trying to hold it together and pretend like Larry's story was awesome, was pretty powerful.
  17. LOL This part was weird when I served 4 years ago. It was a pretty big civil trial (made the papers/news) re: a guy that had been scamming Park Place Motors to the tune of missing millions, missing car titles, even a missing person that may have been whacked by the mob. Anyway. One of the pre-selection questions asked about possible prior experience as an accountant. We were asked if we had ever been an accountant, ran an office, handled money for a business, etc... Those that raised their hands were dismissed. I figured they'd look for folks that had some experience with this type of stuff.
  18. Why was the crowd booing "God Save the Queen"?
  19. I'm never going to get used to these bumps, but thanks for posting.
  20. @Buzzrock Thx for this rec. Amazing thus far. I kept thinking the actor that plays Lawrence Hallbreminds me a lot of the Richard Jewell actor. I just realized why. Also main female has a Jami Gertz feel. That's not a bad thing.
  21. Most of the best lines have already been taken - Ann in the attic, bees v beads, etc., but I'm not sure I've ever laughed so hard the first time I saw this scene. Buster's line starting at :16. Every. Time.
  22. "Oh my God. My husband." "You're married to Carl Weathers? Shit."
