  1. Circling back to Powell for a minute... He was a complete head-scratcher when we offered him. He's not good enough to be a QB here, he'd be at the bottom of the depth chart as a WR, and I'm not sure how he'd fit as a DB. I thought he was a waste of a spot when he committed, despite his 4-star status and Urban supposedly pushing hard for him. He'll probably end up at Baylor buried on the WR depth chart, getting a few touches a year, or he'll be a Heisman winning QB.
  2. How many times did the Colts jump offsides that drive? If the officials aren't going to call it, we need to change up our snap count.
  3. WTF happened? The game wasn't televised here so I was relegated to ESPN.com.
  4. I was only in town for a day and didn't have a membership. My dad does but he said they had just looked at trees there that past weekend but weren't impressed. We have a Sam's here in Abilene and was going to swing by there today before I took the plunge.
  5. To put a nice bow on this thread and provide the closure everyone deserves, I went to the Holiday Warehouse in Plano. Really nice selection of trees, but the average price for a 9' was around $1200-$1500. I'm not Shaggy 1%, so that was a little too much for me. All of the $800-$1000 trees were sold out, bought by all the poors like myself weeks ago. I then went to Decorator's Warehouse in Arlington. They had as much as a selection as the place in Plano, and prices were much more reasonable, but once again, all the good ones were sold out. Apparently these holiday stores are open 365 days a year and people start buying trees in October. So for one more year I will endure the asswhipping that is owning a real tree, and will find an artificial one next year during summer or something. No funeral.
  6. In and $ sent
  7. Good luck. The pilot shortage in the airlines and the AF is sending ripple effects throughout the entire industry.
  8. Where is everyone getting drunk tonight in Dallas? There a HH going on or anything?
  9. I doubt I'll end up actually paying $1000, but given the fact that I've paid $50-$60 a year for a real one, and that a nice fake one should last me 10 years, it doesn't seem so bad. There's also value in not having to sweep up needles every year and having to find a place to dump it.
  10. Thanks fellas. My wife thinks I'm being a tree nazi because apparently I'm looking for a tree that doesn't exist. I just want a gd tree that you can't look through and see the fucking pole in the middle. I want it to look real, even a couple feet away. Lowe's, HD, and Hobby Lobby don't sell a tree like this. There's some nice ones online, but I hate to buy it and look like shit when I put it up.
  11. Here comes some bullshit penalty on 3rd down
  12. I've done a real Christmas tree for my entire life but I think my days of cleaning up needles, watering, and dealing with a dead tree by mid-December are over. I'd like to find a high-end artificial tree in the DFW area but not sure where to look. I want something nicer than you can find at Lowes/HD/Hobby Lobby etc. I don't mind spending $500-$1000 since this is something I'll keep for a while. Halp.
  13. I like it but it looks a lot like the 991 to me. The biggest changes are inside...
  14. I find it hard to believe Ohio St would leapfrog ousux if both teams won. I think the only way we don't make the Sugar Bowl is if UGA beats Bama.
  15. It's a thorny legal issue all right. I'll need to refer to the case of Finders v. Keepers.

  17. Yes I've been drinking since 11, but the question still stands.
  18. Where do I send my $9.95?
  19. What are your T+1 go-to's? I have several lbs of turkey leftovers that I want to do something with besides my usual sandwiches.
  20. Nitto NT05R is probably the tread I'm most thankful for
  21. Any of these kids on Hudl?
  22. A lecturer told to not use caps? Is that like rain on your wedding day?
  23. Does the NBA still do those last 2 minute reports on the officiating? WTF was that?
  24. What's with the jock jams immediately after a TD instead of Texas Fight?
