  1. J Carvers for sure. I’ve been going there most trips to Austin this year and had 2 day old leftovers from there earlier this week and it was better than the meal I had at III Forks Tuesday night. I’ve never been to Salt and Time but had a ham from there on Christmas Day that was outstanding. My favorite restaurant in Austin is still Red Ash (which is how I first learned of J Carver) but sounds like it’s not an option for you this trip.
  2. Just saw CDC and who I believe was Hartzell having lunch at Chris Madrid’s. I did not approach them but a couple of assholes did. Dude, you don’t approach a guy when he is in the middle of eating a macho Mexican Tostada burger.
  3. Well, in this case where it’s mostly he said/she said and trying to get a a story out, I was verifying the rumor that there was an incident in NYC, and there was also one in public the night before the arrest. I’m not comfortable putting the details out there. But the fact that there are at least 2 verifiable incidents of her behavior right before the arrest makes it much more likely, to me, that Beard was truly defending himself. And then left the house which is also verified. this isn’t a case of Beard or his legal team paying her off to change a story. I thought it was interesting that the rumor about NYC which I heard early on was true and I hadn’t heard anything about the night before. Anyway I’ll go ahead and let y’all continue talking about Westlake.
  4. Not that it means anything, but Beard and his fiancée were out together the night before the incident, and so if I remember right that was right after a game. They were having issues that night and it was also confirmed that there were problems in NYC the week prior which was talked about earlier in this thread.
  5. Wrong view of the hotel so here - nothing fancy and it was off-season but it was 100 a night.
  6. If you’ll remind me about the fishing part in a few weeks I will see if I can be any help. Unfortunately I just don’t know that many people fishing up north and the few that I used to know seem to be staying where I am year-round now. One boat may be up that way and I’ll ask about them otherwise I’ll see if I can get a rec from any of the locals in my area. The JW should be able to set you up with any and all private tours. My one and only trip to Tamarindo was with people that live in CR full time so none of us were doing the tours. We parked ourselves on the beach and relaxed. I think you will be at or very near Playa Conchal which is a great beach. Playa Flamingo about 30 minutes north of Tamarindo has a marina, a Margaritaville (avoid), and a cool little beach with a fun restaurant/bar right on the water called Coco Loco. That’s all I’ve got. Attached is our view from literally 50 feet outside our hotel on the beach in Tamarindo, Coco Loco in Flamingo, and a street market that I think is Saturday nights in Tamarindo. Fun stuff and good food. C1E13383-F269-4E2C-8167-EC78F348D2B2.MOV
  7. Merry Christmas everyone. It’s that time of year again. Who else will be down there this winter? I head down in just under 2 weeks and planning to stay for the full allowed 90 days. So far I’ve got 7 tournaments lined up to fish as an observer - yes they actually will pay me a small amount to go ride on nice boats and observe a bunch of fish being caught. Will fish some on my own and try to defend our Sailfish Slam tournament win from last year. Golf. Imperials. Warm weather. it seems like I’ve got more friends/family coming down this year than any other year I’ve been down there and if that’s any indication it’s going to be busy there. I can’t wait to get to Quepos/Manuel Antonio. Pura Vida.
  8. Dad with the rest of the freshman class early 60’s.
  9. Do you not get out much? There are a fuckton of people out there with small to medium to massive trust funds. Many of them don’t work at all. At least your neighbors do or else you’d really be bothered I guess. Who the fuck cares?
  10. The person in charge of lighting the #1 is drunker than anyone on surly
  11. I’ve never heard a lawyer pontificate in a social setting and give any kind of CYA mumble jumbo while doing it, but then again I tend to tune them out at the first mention of anything other than do you want another beer or where are we going next. I mean @trophtried to give me advice but damn I still want to steal their dog. im still at the stage where I can’t even believe we are having this conversation. Sucks for everyone. At some point I guess I’ll post something on the basketball thread in a selfish way when emotions die down, but man I’m devastated.
  12. Man I am as hurt and maybe more hurt over this situation as you are. We had everything going right and for the first time in years I enjoyed watching the games. yesterday was a gut punch followed by a swift kick in the balls. 52 years of life and there has never been anything even remotely comparable to what just happened.
  13. Also, I’ve never known a lawyer that will give legal advice outside of his/her office. You appear to be referencing message board posts.
  14. In a long list of stupid posts you’ve made on this thread, this is the winner.
  15. In his limited minutes I’ve been impressed with Anamekwe. He’s got more skill than I thought. Hope he and Brumbaugh both stay.
  16. Even with Beard we were losing at least 7 of our top 9 guys after this year and maybe all 9. Next year was going to be a completely different roster no matter what. The impact will be with the top recruits we have committed.
  17. Here let me help you. And I don’t blame the players. They didn’t want to be there tonight.
  18. All considered that start is fine. Just win this one, put today behind us and then going forward this team will continue to move away from Beard and go play basketball.
  19. Beard is the one that supposedly has the audio recording that might show that he was not the primary aggressor. The only mention of the choking is the part where they mention difficulty breathing which came from her statement. They don’t mention any physical marks/bruises or evidence in the neck area. The bite mark is disconcerting but the rest can probably be explained away as self defense. Clearly there was a physical confrontation. It reads like a bad relationship that got physical, not like a habitual wife beater. I doesn’t read like he was seriously trying to hurt her. He should and will be fired. Cant see any way he retains his job. On to the game thread and then the coaching search thread.
  20. I read that as he told the police he had them, but would not share them with the reporter. Who fucking knows in the day of twitter news.
  21. Well if he does want to maintain his innocence, that statement will help him if he didn’t do anything. She should have all kinds of marks/bruises/scrapes that will be documented or not.
  22. Man that is going to be a weird atmosphere at the game tonight. Enjoy Moody it’s an amazing arena. I used Uber and it worked well so no help on parking.
  23. No kidding. From what I could make out the only new info was that there is a TRO in effect and he is allowed to call and text her and I assume that is standard.
