Man, was I ever happy to intercept this package before the wife got home.

Maybe. Master Teague and Sermon platooned for most the year, with Teague being the starter for the first 6 games. And he was fully healthy vs. Bama. Not to discount the loss of Sermon, who is clearly talented. However, it's not like Teague was some scrub walk-on either.

Not sure this constitutes proof, but it's certainly evidence that would seem to challenge your hypothesis. Exhibit A: Exhibit B: I think most would say that Clemson has a pretty solid defense, and Fields worked them over something fierce. Modern defense has evolved and the emphasis has shifted towards 1) limiting explosive offensive plays and 2) being stingy in the red zone. While disruptive plays and turnovers are still great outcomes, you can't be solely dependent on those things vs. modern offenses. This is particularly true is your own offense is prolific, as your defense is going to be on the field a lot more.

Great fucking bottle. The Discovery series is now an auto-buy for me, even at ~$120. I have a bunkered bottle of Series 2 and Series 3, and a Series 4 bottle en route from an out of town contact that found it while hunting in Illinois.

So wait. Fields is 6/15 for 90 yards in the first half and people think Bama should be doing better defensively? Did we all watch the same OSU vs Clemson game? Seriously, surly. What in the literal fuck?

It's a high Rye bourbon, not an out and out rye. It's still 51%+ corn. I thought I read that the Rye content was 37% of the total mashbill somewhere. I've had it twice so far, and came away liking it both times. I need to go back to it soon for one more critical tasting, as air has more pronounced impact on GB bottles. What I took away from the first two pours was that the "signature GB note" was still there, but not nearly as front and center as their standard expressions. It was more of a background note. There was more spice present, which I assume came from the Rye and is also likely responsible for balancing things out a bit. Additionally, the finish had a mintyness to it that I really enjoyed. The only knock I have against it is that it's not as complex as I was thinking it would be going into it. For now, I've give it a solid B/B+.

I think Balmorhea is supposed to release sometime in January. That’s what they told us when we were out there for the Hye Rye release anyway.
-
God dammit. You fucks need to stop Urban or Busting up this thread. Get in a fucking chat room with all this ice cream bullshit.

I may have this wrong, but I was operating under the belief that the barrels intended for batch 3 were ultimately scrapped and/or repurposed into other Beam brands given that they did not pass muster with Fred. My understanding is that the juice inside of Pigskin is the juice that was originally intended for whatever Batch 4 was going to be named. They did not want to skip a batch number, so they still released it as Batch 3/Pigskin, and there won’t be a 2020 Batch 4 bottling released. Again, that’s how I understand the sequence of events. I have heard really good things from friends I trust about Pigskin, but have yet to pull the trigger.

I want Sark hiring coordinators that desperately want his job. If that means we are searching for new coordinators every 2-4 years, great. That means we are getting hungry guys on their way up with plenty to prove. I don’t want anyone that’s perfectly happy being a career coordinator. I’m sure there is a mouth breather that is going to say Boom is now a “career coordinator” based on failing twice as a head coach. I promise you that he would punch you square in your fucking face if you told him that’s how he feels. He may never make it as a successful head coach, but no chance in hell he’s ready to give up on that goal.

If Hutzler is already out, you have to assume he knows Ash is out too. All things being equal, I’d rather have Coleman on the staff. That said, this all a normal part of any regime change. There are candidates out there that can fill in the gap, and this staff is still shaping up to be much stronger top to bottom than the staff Hutzler was part of.
-
Do you even surly, bro?
-
That reads like Tosh wants more than a trumped up title. If he wants to be the play calling DC, then we can/should let go of the dream of him being part of the staff.
-
I’m with this guy.
-
I'd love to know how this is in any way relevant to his potential future as an assistant coach on Sark's staff.

He said he was considering selling on the secondary market before others chimed in with interest in buying the bottle. My comment was specific to his original stated intent. As for trades, comparable value is subjective and will vary from person to person. I didn’t mean to imply that trades needed to be for comparable SRP value. If someone really wants to trade a SFTB for a WFP despite the SFTB carrying a much higher SRP, that’s a personal decision. And I get the supply and demand dynamic, but the industry is thriving on product scarcity and the only people losing here are the consumers. The distilleries could stop all of this (and make more profit) if they wanted to, but the scarcity aspect is an integral component of accelerating demand. How much of the prized whiskey in the world is in the hands of people that have no intention of drinking it? It’s an unanswerable question, but I am confident that an acceptable answer is “too damn much”.
-
Selling shit on the secondary market is contributing to the problem. If you bought something you don’t plan to consume, sell it for what you paid or trade it for something of comparable value. It’s fucking whiskey, not a stock.
-
You give Tosh a position group (DL), some sort of elevated title, and plenty of cash. If he says yes, great. If he insists on being the DC, then we need to move on.
-
Doesn’t every hire he makes require some level of trust that it’s a good hire? Nobody really loved the Ash hire, but now many would be completely on board with Sark retaining him. Wiggins career trajectory seems to track, and it’s clear (based on the output of Bama’s WR’s) that Wiggins and Sark work well together. I get that everyone’s a critic, but I am not seeing anything in his background that suggests cronyism if he is the guy that gets the job.
