  1. There are plenty that think it was fake as is. Beyond hollywood or being rich and getting special treatment a hell of a lot worse fights occur in the real world without any arrests. If you slap someone on camera and the person laughs and walks away or vice versa the police aren't scrambling to arrest anyone no matter who you are. This is akin to wanting football players arrested for dirty hits.
  2. I could see wind being an issue because I think these things leak a lot stock. I sealed mine up with felt gaskets as much as I could.
  3. Watch these things if you want a factual description of these guys and their era. Stick to Showtime if you want to be entertained by fictitious storytelling about real people.
  4. I haven't noticed the temp being inaccurate, but I also haven't hooked up a secondary probe much for ambient temp. I don't think mine is that off because I've cooked things where the controller being that off I would have noticed. I do think there is some offset technology in the primary temp controller to prevent it from thinking it's dropped a ton once the door is opened. That may be what you are experiencing. You open it up and all that heat inside is gone, but it doesn't register on the main temp controller so it doesn't overheat the charcoal to try to catch up. So in that case an separate ambient temp would likely be a lot lower than the main, but I think they even out once the chamber gets back up to temp.
  5. I aint going to be accepting any more of them bribes you can believe that.
  6. I guess it's like people hiding under underpasses during tornados, but getting out and standing by your car in that situation seems insane. At least high tail it up that embankment on the side.
  7. Give us a break, we give the same treatment if you can throw a spherical ball as well, or even kick one.
  8. That's the kind of fake trip I do when I want to dump a cup of water on my kids. I think I might put a little more effort and actually step on my shoe lace or something if I am attempting to destroy someone.
  9. I don't think you get the clear blue smoke like a stick burner. It would be something similar to a WSM is my guess. I don't have a WSM but I have smoked pork butts on my kettle with the slow n' sear and they have similar tastes. The charcoal hopper is sealed in use so and if you are going low and slow it's effectively choking off the air flow so the coal and wood smolder.
  10. In his defense Cole isn't in a lot of high profile stuff. So if you haven't seen The Fast and Furious 2 and just started watching Yellowstone you might say holy shit that's the dude from Dazed and Confused.
  11. I just read your post That is kind of interesting, but still it should embrace more craziness. None of the other crewmembers are interesting at all.
  12. It gets a little better when Waititi as Blackbeard is introduced, but overall pretty meh. The supporting cast doesn't do anything. It's just Darby and Waititi and most of the "humor" is subtle at best. It takes itself too serious for such an outlandish premise.
  13. Are you referring to the gravity fed Masterbuilt or Char Griller smokers? I have the Char Griller 980 and I love it. I doubt it improves upon the WSM since there are tons of upgrades and resources on how to get great smokes on the WSM. Maybe cook volume would be an improvement. I get plenty of smoke on mine though. You can load wood chunks in the hopper or in the ash pan to get that smoldering smoke. The hopper seems to burn hotter likely eliminating some that smoldering affect, but like I said you can put chunks in the ash pan to supplement. Dollar for dollar I don't know if any smoker beats a WSM if you are just talking about single family cooks. The only advantage I'd say is more accessible cooking surface and the ability to go from 250 to 500 in just a couple of minutes. I have a weber kettle also and I am not getting rid of it, so I just use mine as a smoker only.
  14. Musical musers is the worst. It always runs long and sucks balls to listen to. Just go back to biggest show coming to town even if you are picking from a bunch of garbage.
  15. You can't point all the spoons down or they'll start spooning and won't get cleaned. You wife's or kid's dirty hands are touching all your plates/bowls as well.
  16. I'd guess edited. It certainly wasn't staged to get that close. I assume train engineers make attempts to brake or sound the horn at least with animals on the track.
  17. Him being an asshole is funny and grabs the headlines, but not knowing that Aaron Donald needs his own gameplan is the reason he failed so horribly.
  18. That's probably the only way to go if you only have 10 episodes.
  19. Show is great, but 3 episodes in and we aren't even to training camp yet. It's still fun, but not sure how much post year 1 we are going to get of the dynasty.
  20. I have no doubt there are plenty of names that are worse than Mayfield but those guys don't have many options either. I don't know if you follow the Browns but he was most definitely a bottom 10 starting QB this year. Maybe that's what you mean by options? Yeah he can definitely can play for another crappy organization.
  21. He'll have options but he's not a mid pack starting QB. If you think he's somewhere in the 16 range you are on crack. He's in the back and that's where his option will be.
