Pluribus - Vince Gilligan and Rhea Seehorn

Correct. Another reason why Gilligan is a great partner. He’d rather light himself on fire than video boobies. Let’s play the game with a commonly shared experiences. What Austin restaurants would you rebuild to flip Carol - Ez’s on Lamar - Cain and Abel’s (original location) - Baja Fresh on Guadalupe - That weird gyro place by Castillian. - Player’s - Dobie Theater - I’d install a Thundercloud Subs in my house. -
2025-26 Houston Rockets Thread - Back to Contention?

Is Reed hurt? The rotations have been fucking bizarre. -
VIP Vault thoughts: - Many technical issues, but they usually fixed it. And they were always nice about it. User error probably cost me a bottle of Old Forester Presidential. - It’s more democratic. A lot of first time BTAC owners this year. I don’t give a shit because they’re going to give me Lot B/ORVW and WLW/GTS/THH every year. - I didn’t get Parker’s or 4RLE this year. These were lay ups in previous years, but I did get a JD Special Release. That was a floor drop every year previously. I wanted that Parker’s, agnostic on the 4RLE (it’s not priced well), but if I get a couple Coy Hills moving forward I’ll call it even. Hopefully stuff like 1924 and ER12 is an email instead of a drop. So sick of this camping out line bullshit. - I don’t love them throwing legacy points out. It’s a rolling 12 month point total now. I’ve tried to buy every 6 pack, bottle of wine, mixer, and nice bottle of booze at the same location since I moved back in 2011. Loyalty should mean something.

Net positive if Gideon comes back and takes over at DC in a couple years? -
Most crushable of the year, sure. Not my whiskey of the year, but not a bad choice. https://www.breakingbourbon.com/article/1-whiskey-of-2025?utm_source=brevo&utm_campaign=Breaking Bourbon Whiskey Wednesday Newsletter - 202551&utm_medium=email

What are the practice squad rules? Can the Texans sign any DT on a practice squad in the NFL if their current team is unwilling or unable to move them up?!
-
Very curious. The Brewzle guy has interviewed a couple mom and pop owners and they’ve basically said they’re getting squeezed by the distributors to charge less on anything that isn’t allocated. I remember Old Ezra 7 Rye at $40 was a bottle that was singled out. Methinks he hung up a $130 dollar handwritten sign for Heritage and his Jack guy rapped him on the wrist. That was a cool store. You could routinely find allocated stuff for 125% of MSRP. Of course it went straight to hell after Covid.

That Village location selling anything above Jim Beam at MSRP is quite shocking.

The dorks at the Saturday Night Network podcast have been clamoring for SNL to cast a black female cast member during the winter break. It would kill 3 birds with 1 stone. 1) Sketches with black female characters again 2) Eliminates the need to put Wickline in sketches when they need another warm body 3) Reduces Padilla’s work load. It makes too much sense for them to not do it.

2025-26 Houston Rockets Thread - Back to Contention?

Good: - Durant blocking shots and getting deflections like it’s the 2018 Finals. - Alpie trading blows with the 3 time MVP. - Reed hit a clutch 3 near the end of regulation. Bad: - I hated how they defended Murray. Amen or Okogie needed to be in his pocket all night. You’re going to lose when Murray scores 30+ because Jokic is going to get his regardless. - They missed a few free throws here and there that would have really helped. I understand missing a couple in the bonus, but they have to finish and 1’s if they’re not going to shoot 3’s with anymore of volume. - Turnovers. Denver is a middling defensive team. They have no business forcing 16 turnovers. Durant had 5 and Alpie had 4. I get they initiate the offense and they get trapped on every play. But Okogie had 3. He either needs to tighten that up or they need to bring his minutes way down. -
Simmons is on Code Red about the possibility of Texans at Pats in round 1. He reiterated it again on Sunday. He would much rather the Pats play the Chargers. Let’s make that happen for him.

Jones has the ugliest shot I’ve seen in recent memory but he’s nailed 2 daggers. -

Thompson needs to be guarding Murray. Fuck this switch everything bullshit. -

Why the fuck is Murray shooting the free throw?
