  2. Stepbrother evicted his tenant. Moved in and then was shot and killed through the peephole three days later. And he was the good stepbrother. Haiku version: Stepbrother evicts dumps possessions on front lawn dies by peephole shot.
  3. Paths of Glory followed by Breaker Morant tonight. Only complaint is PoG is non-streaming. No one misses a slice off a cut loaf v. The Faithful Hussar. I love them both.
  4. I remember seeing bits of Real Life on PBS in early 80's and thinking it was a real documentary. Grodin was perfect in the movie as he was in many others.
  5. My great aunt's father was Dutch Cota (Robert Mitchum) in the movie. She was a generous and classy lady. Her husband (my great uncle by blood) was an ass, but that shit is hereditary. This movie is not too long for me and is fantastic.

    I would have liked to see Green on this list.
  7. Velvet Underground - Velvet Un Violent Femmes - Violent Femmes Clash - Clash Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures Gang of Four - Entertainment Patti Smith - Horses Ramones - Ramones Zeitgeist - Translate Slowly The Flatlanders - More a Legend Than a Band (recorded in 72, but not released until 90). Love the musical saw in this. Old No. 1 - Guy Clark Lyle Lovett - Lyle Lovett
  8. Sajayit Ray movies.
  9. Starting at 7 tonight there is a run of Indian movies. Which ones stand out?
  10. Fully agree here. Allen is going to be a Culver type and I'll take the Swede as a better fit as he reminds of Moretti. I hope that Larrson's late decision to join the portal is due to talking to Allen.
  11. There can never be enough English Beat memories. This one scared my kids when they were young.
  12. This sounds like the reasoning of a weak ass mayor in a broke ass town. Well, no longer applies since the mayor has moved on and town is no longer broke. But seriously... I like where you are going with this. Who plays the Moretti role? Does Allen = Culver?
  13. The Letter - Directed by William Wyler. Husband and wife are Herbert Marshall and Bette Davis set in Malaysia/Singapore. Wife cheats, wife lies, wife dies. The attorney stands out in this, but all the main actors do as well as the moon. Something seemed familiar when watching this. Yes. Wyler directed Little Foxes with Marshall and Davis playing the husband and wife. Amazing film, well acted and a lovely story by Mrs. Dashiell Hammett. Back to back years, 1940-1941.
  14. Based on your numbers. PG = 48 min SG = 54 min SF = 44 min PF = 48 min C = 48 min College game is 40 min.
  15. No mention of Ramey decision means that he's back?
  16. https://bustingbrackets.com/2021/03/16/ncaa-basketball-ranking-68-head-coaches-2021-ncaa-tournament/17/ 21. Shaka Smart (Texas) 7 NCAA Tournaments (7-7) There were certainly rumblings that the end had come for Smart at Texas, with the results largely disappointing since his hiring in 2015. He took VCU to a Final Four and a flurry of Tournament bids but just hadn’t turned Texas into a successful program. This season, he’s led the Longhorns as high as #4 in the nation and won the first Big 12 Tournament title in program history. One season doesn’t absolutely change everything unless of course, Texas catches fire in the NCAA Tournament. 13. Rick Barnes (Tennessee) 24 NCAA Tournaments (24-24) It’s been a long and successful head coaching career for Barnes, who has led four different schools to the NCAA Tournament during a career that dates back almost 35 years. He took Texas to the Final Four during a long run with the Longhorns and has turned Tennessee into one of the top-level teams in the SEC. This past season was a bit disappointing and this isn’t Barnes’ best Tennessee squad, but he’s proven that he’s still one of the game’s top guys. 8. Chris Beard (Texas Tech) 3 NCAA Tournaments (9-3) Beard has really exploded onto the national scene in recent years. Just six years ago he was still a non-D1 head coach, but the former Bob Knight assistant took Little Rock to 30 wins and an NCAA Tournament upset before returning home to Texas Tech in 2016. When you consider that he’s taken the Red Raiders to a national title game, far more success than Knight or anyone else has accomplished, you can see the wonders he’s been not just for his program but for the competition in the Big 12.
  17. Missimo is a game changer. Add in the new recruits and it's a UT-Solar team. Just drive the bus and not park it.
  18. No mention of DeVante’ Jones by IT guys. Did UK make an offer to him?
  19. Baines! It's a great life if you don't weaken. Saw the The Fallen Idol for the first time. Carol Reed, Graham Green and Alexander Korda all involved. The Third Man is one of my favorite movies - the naive and cynical sides of the two Americans contrasted with the war weariness of the Europeans. So many great scenes with unforced humor such as Holly lecturing on modern literature. The zither music and the cinematography is outstanding. Still mulling over this one. May have to watch again.
  20. Mary Hardin Baylor represent. My favorite of the Tennessee Williams films.

    Clark was the rare homegrown who got sold to another club even with expectations that he'd bolt to Europe. He's from Minnesota but played for Barca in Arizona and then went to NY with plans to go to Leipzig. Sounds like a song. Minnesota haggled and got a little money for him to go to NY. Compare this to Jonathan Gomez formerly at FCD. He's a standout left back that got a lowball FCD offer and refused it. FCD stopped playing him at the youth level. He's playing at Louisville USL waiting to turn 18 so he can bolt to Europe. His brother is playing in Portugal for what I believe is a D2 team. https://3rddegree.net/whos-the-next-fc-dallas-academy-signing-fall-2019-edition

    First guy's dad lives(d) in Dallas suburbs and I believe was a scout. Ran into him at a HS game. His son was over for a couple of years and was just too rowdy for suburban high schools. With legitimate chances to join English clubs he went back to live with mom. From what I remember he played well with Southend before transferring to QPR.
  23. When was the last time a Texas team was better at the end of the season than they were at the beginning? The Final Four team? GTFO with any NIT finish.
