  1. Push it back twenty-plus.
  2. Really, rather than "Biggest Tites" we should rank by "Best Tites". To keep discussions going strong, there should be no clear definition of what actually constitutes "best". Additional parameters could be brought into play, such as protrusion, roundness, cup size, nipple location and/or size and/or color, firmness, et cetera.
  3. Guessing you've never worn a nightgown, either?
  4. One of my very first cars was an XK 120 Coupe. It was hella fun to drive, when it was actually drivable, but its electrics were filthy with green wires, and useful running time probably was better measured in hours rather than days. It did cure my desire for any sort of British mechanical devices, so experiences related here hit close to home.
  5. Rapeseed always sounded to me as though someone typo'ed and missed the "G" at the start. On the other hand "Canola" sounds much healthier, although possibly a component in a euthanasia scheme.
  6. It may not be much good as a band name, but it sounds much more scienc-y than "squashed ball".
  7. Actually, banana's not all that bad, but you have to mash it up to get the full effect... slices just don't quite get it.
  8. Sark following Saban's example, and not letting coordinators and assistants do press conferences keeps the light off of all of them. At least they don't have to learn what to do with their hands and how to stop swaying back and forth or left and right.
  9. Not to put a damper on the thread, but the title is incorrect. Kentucky has in fact played this far west, in 1951, when they played us, here. But no farther, so that's good. So, fix it, or roll with it, it don't make a shit. FIGHT !!! 🤘
  10. On the bright side, Girlcum Tobias is an outstanding name for a band.
  11. Still wondering how Tennessee is #17 SOS but we're #38. Tenn's OOC are 13-29 and include 0-11 Kent State, ours are 22-18. Their "big game" was NC State (5-5) while ours was Meatchicken (also 5-5). The SEC games are identical except they have Bama and we have aggy. Just doesn't seem like anough of a difference in opponents to account for the rating discrepancy. Just win, baby. Hook'em
  12. Hey, now... you know the story: never up, never in. Do, or die.
  13. One of the all-time great cinematic performances. You know why? Because he was perfectly cast. He wasn't acting, he was being himself and simply pretending. Much like Surly...
  14. Fuck a five-gallon bucket full of "what if...". Just win, baby, just win. But, as for what actually happened so far, as opposed to what if... The only difference between our SEC schedule and Tennessee's is that we play aggy and they play Bama. We beat Piggy while they didn't. I haven't heard a buncha bitchin' about how soft Tennessee's schedule is. And speaking of results... Oregon squeaked by Wiscy by a field goal, and Bama kicked the living shit outta the Badgers. Transitive or no, there's something to chew on.
  15. I think the real point is that aggy allegedly has been amplifying crowd noise to make it seem like they give a fuck. The speakers on the sideline thing is new, and seems likely to be against SEC rules.
  16. Only to lazy motherfuckers. The rest of us... it's easy, and it's fun.
  17. Two good approaches: 1. Unplug line to speaker cab. Cover plug with super glue. Return plug. Cut line at top of plug. 2. Take a 16-oz. spray bottle of naphtha. Spritz two sprays into each speaker cone, through grille cloth. Strike kitchen match. Ignite. Profit.
  18. Quite a few quotes of Shipley with "We cannot afford to lose another game IMO." Not entirely correct. We can afford to lose the CCG and would still be in the 5-12 bracket. Losing to UK or aggy likely keeps us out of the CCG, and might shove us out of 5-12 as well. At this point we have at least three games left. Whether the third one is the CCG, a first-round homer, or a Toilet Bowl remains to be seen. If we keep winning, we have the three and another three in the playoffs. Could be a lotta games left, and they're just gonna keep getting tougher.
  19. Are there wives who don't baby-talk to their sweety-pie little doggies?
  20. One of the best, and I think my first, incredible aggy rollercoaster derailment - which we called at the time a choke - happened in the 1963 game that solidified our #1 ranking (over #2 Navy and Roger Staubach). On odd-number years, T-Day game was in College Station. It was chilly and wet. We scored first, FG by Shoeless Tony Crosby, and led 3-0. aggy came back with a couple of TDs, one in 2Q and another in 3Q, missed the xp on the second one, and was up 13-3 in the 4th quarter. We scored early, went for 2, didn't get it: 13-9 aggy. aggy had only won a couple of games all year, and they pulled out all the stops. One of their scores was a trick play, where the QB lateraled to a WR, and bounced the ball. I swear the nearest official waved incomplete, but maybe not. It worked as intended - the Texas D pulled up, and the WR threw a long pass to a wide-open ag. Damn. With the clock running out, Texas mounted a drive, but then... disaster! Our pass was intercepted, and aggy just needed to take a knee and run the clock for the supremely satisfying win. That wasn't enough for the ags, though... the interceptor apparently wanted glory, a pick-6 to cap off one for the ages. He tried to run it back, but was quickly corralled. Instead of going down, though, he tried to pitch it to a teammate. The ball went flying, Texas recovered it, with a fresh set of downs because of the double change of possession. Texas drove and Duke Carlisle punched the ball in from the goal line with a minute left. We went for 2 - again - and didn't get it - again. But 15-13 Texas. aggy had yet another massive choke to add to their heritage, and we had a New Year's Day shot at Roger Staubach and the Midshipmen. But that's another story.
  21. Especially when they're curly-haired and left-handed.
  22. The single-point safety. The kick was "blocked" but remained in the field of play. An aggy picked up the ball, still in the field. If he had run it back 90-some yards to the other end zone, it would have been 2 points for aggy. He didn't run it back, he tried to lateral and it was fumbled into his own end zone. If Texas had recovered it, it would have been a two-point conversion(? I think...). But an aggy recovered it, and was down. Because it had been possessed in the field, it was a safety. Because it was an attempted conversion, one point. The only part I find surprising is that it was only one instead of two, when an aggy runback or a Texas recovery would have been two (I think). Last time a safety was an issue for us was the XII refs spending 15 minutes to "justify" not giving Texas two against Bama in '22. That right there is the difference between SEC reffing and XII reffing. The ref diff between Bama '22 and '23 was ... considerable.
