Bama Llama

Archibald’s > Dreamland However, a really good juicy piece of charred steak always > bbq imho kickoff’s at 6, right?

I must have missed something. Anyone, please enlighten me. What part of Coach’s private life justified these assholes ending his job?

Ren said it to Stimpy but that in itself was an homage to the film in question.

“You fat, bloated eeediot!”

McConawatch is a thing, even in Alabama. ALABAMA LIFE & CULTURE Matthew McConaughey throws horns up to fans during movie shoot in Pell City Updated: Jun. 15, 2023, 3:59 p.m.| Published: Jun. 15, 2023, 12:05 p.m. 5 Matthew McConaughey in Pell City Ben Flanagan | bflanagan@al.com Matthew McConaughey is on a restaurant tour of Alabama, it seems, at least shooting movies if not enjoying meals there as he films “The Rivals of Amziah King” this summer. The latest sighting on McConaWatch located the Oscar-winning star of “Dallas Buyers Club” and “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” at the Pell City Steak House Restaurant, located at 2401 Comer Ave., right off of Highway 231. The Rev. Chuck Lackey, pastor at Calvary Baptist Church of Odenville, happened to drive by the moment McConaughey walked across the entrance of the beloved Alabama steakhouse. “Alright, alright, alright!,” Lackey told AL.com he shouted at the star, referencing McConaughey’s iconic line uttered by his character Wooderson in the 1993 film “Dazed and Confused.”

This isn’t Polite Horns, so

I don’t care who’s on the schedule or where the game is played, if Texas brings the defensive intensity I saw last year vs. my guys, the Horns will be in every game. If the Mullet stays healthy, all Ws is a legit possibility. Hell, don’t be talking how tough the SEC is. Just roll out Bevo and give it hell. Roll Tide by the way. See you in September.

More about Archibald's. Today's AL.com ranked it #1 best BBQ in Alabama (article appears below). Well worth a visit when Horns came to Tuscaloosa. The late George and Betty Archibald opened Archibald's Bar-B-Q in their Northport neighborhood in 1962.(Bob Carlton/bcarlton@al.com) 1. Archibald’s Bar-B-Q 1211 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. in Northport. archibaldbbq.com. Archibald’s, as we have said before, is the hallowed ground of holy smoke, the Wrigley Field of rib joints, and a pilgrimage to this modest, soot-scorched, cinderblock shrine should be a must on any barbecue lover’s bucket list. During basketball season, we make that trip at least a half-dozen times or so for our pre-game meals. Archibald’s is revered for its ribs, which are grilled over a bed of hot hickory coals in a well-seasoned brick pit that’s right behind the front counter, so guests get a front-row seat to watch the Archibald’s pitmasters in action. In recent years, they’ve added a screened porch to accommodate the overflow crowd (a good thing) and expanded the menu to include hot wings (highly recommended) and even fried catfish. Otherwise, not a lot has changed since the late George and Betty Archibald opened the place behind their home in Northport in 1962. Woodrow Washington III, their grandson, continues their legacy with the help of his siblings Lashawn, Reginald and Dalvin. (Washington also opened a second location, Archibald & Woodrow’s BBQ, on Greensboro Avenue in Tuscaloosa in 2002.) Order this: To get the true experience, we recommend the mixed plate, which comes with four or five big and meaty ribs, an ample serving of sliced pork, several slices of white bread and a small Styrofoam cup of Archibald’s atomic-orange barbecue sauce. For the full effect, wash it all down with an ice-cold Grapico. MORE: A quick history of Archibald’s Bar-B-Q

Visiting at the Swamp is a most interesting experience. The aftergame experiences are legendary along the strip, well within walking distance. Gata fans, however, are NOT classy while the game is in progress. Get down there before they get their shit together. Much better in October or after.

Near or at the top. Exhibit A - Cover of Time prerelease. Exhibit B -

This. Plus, Robin Meade - mmmmmm.

You’d think scripting would help the offense have a better chance of success on the road when crowd noise is a factor. But I have no meaningful qualifications other than watching football in person and on TV for 60+ years. Played high school ball and did so well ended up in the band. Corches, whst say you?

The daughter and Dad pretending to have an argument ad makes me vomick. Pharma ads should be banned for literally polluting the stramverse, stressing out people who don’t make health care choices from fucking TV ads in in which disclaimers are 70% of the content.

P.S. - Claimed he had “forgotten his gate code.”

My daughter was a freshman at UA during the Mike Price Spring. He had a condo close by Bryant Denny with key pad gate. One of my daughter’s friends was going in and Mike was staggering around at the gate asking to be let in. He hit on everything with a twat while he was on campus and off (see Arety’s Angels fiasco. The players loved him. Imagine that.

#32 went out at the pinnacle of his game. He could run over, between and through defenders better than any rb I ever saw. Jim Brown and Dr Frank Ryan (Rice alum) were the engine of a damn good offense, with a damn smart corch on the sidelines, Paul Brown. Loved watching those guys play in cold weather outside on our old black and white TV. Cue Frank Fazenda (sp?)“Under a leaden sky and blowing snow at Soldier Field, Jim Brown single handedly dismantled the vaunted Chicago Bears, led by Dick Butkus . . . “

For supremely soulful (pork) BBQ check out Archibald’s in Northport, 10 minutes from Bryant Denny: It is mo betta than Dreamland, which ain’t bad.

Jesus God, 6 is so much better than 11 fuckin a.m. As a great coach once said, “There’ll be some snot knockin in the old okra patch that night.” Or something like that. The shades of Royal and Bryant will be roaming around, causing field goals to hook and passes to be dropped. Weird shit will occur. Nobis and Namath will reenact the goal line play from ‘65 Orange Bowl. Many penalties will actually be called (Big 12 refs?). Or not. Horns fans will shower Dallas Turner with Bevo manure. The Minister of Culture will get arrested before the game even starts. 2-7-1. Gotta work on it, Bama. Even it up at least before I croak. Thanks OP for giving us something to visualize.

Tuscaloosa native here and a college football fan since before dirt. If you have time for it, this place (link below) offers an interesting experience which doesn’t involve drunks or barbecue, NTTAWWT. Moundville (15 minutes down AL 69 from Tuscaloosa) is a Mississipian mound complex, major mojo 1,000 years ago. The place has a strong vibe and a decent museum. Descendants of the mound builders and their advocates shut down the UA museum a few years back until more respectful exhibitions replaced skulls and bones. Worth a look for a change of pace anyway. Hope the game is good as last year minus the injuries and controversial non-calls but with the same result. Horns are still 5 up on my guys and we need to get even before I croak. We are hurting at QB. Moundville Archaeological Park – University of Alabama Museums

Loved both Newhart shows. Tom Poston always cracked me up going all the way back to the Steve Allen mon on the street segments with Louis Nye and Don Knotts. In the Pleshette show Tom used to occasionally appear as "Peeper," Bob's old college buddy. During one episode when they got together and talked about the old days, they tried to remember the words of their old college fight song. Tom Poston, in his quiet way, with that slow, thoughtful delivery says: "It was.... 'Something.... something. Rah-rah-rah.' " I just love that shit.

She and a reasonably young Lauren Bacall . . . Mmmm-HMM! Talk to me, baby. Both of you.

The thujone pretender’s whole vibe is lame as shit but this was a damn good likeness of Will Anderson, Amish beard and whatnot. The Jets kid was good. Otherwise, the “show” was meh.

I was not encouraged by what I saw in our spring game, particularly slow QB decision making - holding the ball too long. Texas/Bama has been good football every time out all the way back to 1960 but the feel and flow of this year’s game is a hard call. I know this; September 9 is too fucking early for day games in Tuscaloosa or Austin. Wish the full Texas band could come but TV has killed that. Back in the early 80s Texas opened at Auburn. A friend of mine who attended that game said the Longhorn band march-in took forever as the Boog fans sat there gaping. By the time they played The Eyes the game was over in everyone’s minds. I believe Bo Jackson was on that Auburn team. There’s something extra cool and special about a road underdog coming out with the W, especially vs those Philistines.

SIGNS AND PORTENTS From Saturday Down South, March 30, 2023 Texas A&M baseball streaker at Texas game reportedly a student-athlete for Aggies Texas A&M hosted Texas on the baseball diamond Tuesday evening, but the game was briefly interrupted in the top of the 5th inning after a man wearing a Darth Maul mask, no shirt, and the phrase “Trump 2024” painted on his chest climbed down onto Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park and ran through the infield carrying a sign that read “Longhorns suck” before briefly exposing his buttocks. He then made his way back to the outfield wall, took 2 attempts to clear the fence, and was later arrested on misdemeanor charges of criminal trespass and disorderly conduct/exposure.
