  1. Deuces Wild. In the great adventures of miscasting, what if I told there’s a movie where Matt Dillon, Norman Reedus, Frankie Muniz, and widow‘s peak Stephen Dorff portray members of Italian-American street gang in 1958 Brooklyn? They even cast Big Pussy as a priest. Just wild, wild choices. Subtract Muniz, set it in Hell’s Kitchen, and make the Deuces an Irish gang and it might have been worked. I know he’s passed, but Brad Renfro is dogshit bad/annoying in everything he was in. I wish he was still with us, and had chosen a different line of work.
  2. Agreed especially with Pop stepping away from basketball, but… that wouldn’t stop the Spurs from doing some crazy, desperate move like making Tony Parker VP of Basketball Operations. I bet he’d do it for some minority ownership points.
  3. Did this come from a Reddit post or something? A couple people at work have asked me about it. KISD could barely get the bond passed to build Legacy Stadium. How are they going to pass a very team friendly bond for several billion dollars? I’d also imagine there are a fair number of Katy residents that like driving into the city for Texas games and the rodeo/ don’t want the increased traffic in their backyards.
  4. Can Paul demand a buyout and leave? You’d think both sides would want to mutually part ways. I don’t want him, but what a sad way to end a HOF career.
  5. So they think they’re worth $2 billion more than the Commanders? Man, I just don’t see it. They’re one of the oldest, most prestigious franchises in the NFL in a terrific TV market with plenty of fan support. I doubt the McNairs ever sell. Bob will hold on to it to spite his brother. Hannah obviously loves being an owner.
  6. I loved the movie, but it’s nothing approaching rewatchable. One and done. Perhaps, I would enjoy the play more.
  7. Ah yes. Forgot about the prank call.
  8. Any hints of where the Chevron cuts are going to be? The bottom 20% of Chevron’s Land Department are probably better than many other companies’ landmen. I’d hate to see the job market get flooded. My company magically over performed this year despite the stock price dipping $10 and stagnating around $50. Bonuses are about the only thing they do well. Got a half point above the inflation rate on a raise. Yay.
  9. Dafuq? Paulie’s beef with Ralph was over losing a sitdown over some shared robbery proceeds. I think you’re thinking of Ralph’s beef with Johnny Sack. Ralph made a fat joke about Johnny’s wife. And for good measure, Ralph beat a pregnant stripper to death in the parking lot of the Bing. He was not a good guy.
  10. I drove by today after a Cavender’s run. The tents are already up. That was quick.
  11. I watched the fourth quarter with my hands over my eyes, but we won. Moving on.
  12. Yep, and if Earley overachieves just a little bit, aggy will extend him. Let the “we hosted a regional without our best player” chest pounding begin.
  13. Gabriel can suddenly hit everything on a NFL route tree. News to all of us. I hope Quinn goes into this egoless and throws at the Combine, pro day, and private workouts for any team that will have him. He needs to kill it.
  14. Well, I have bad news for you. Spencer is going to be in Galveston for at least some of Season 2 Episode 2.
  15. I thought it was poorly scored, and Hanks tries to be charming the whole time. It’s good, and I’ll continue to watch, but Planet Earth is better at this.’
  16. I think there’s going to be a lot of these fucking things in Texas because of cheap energy. They’re an eye sore and supposed to be pretty loud. I hope DeepSeek taught our engineers something, and they can make it AI servers smaller.
  17. I’d probably skip that Rebecca Creek Spanish Oak pick pictured above. It’s hot as hell and never mellows. I’ll finish it, but I won’t be buying another. It’s a shame, the seller was a really nice guy.
  18. Random thoughts: - My FIL has a porch pretty similar to Dutton house. They don’t make them like that anymore. Catches every bit of a breeze. - I know a young lady that’s a dead ringer for Alexandra. She’s fire, and Vandy educated. Her husband is shitting golden horseshoes lucky. - The native girl looks like American Indian Sydney Sweeney. It’s crazy.
  19. This. There are some cook team guys on surly. I hope they reach out to you. Wrist bands are for sale, but it’s more of a who you know thing. If you do go, please, please leave early. Uber is a nightmare after they close the grounds close for the night.
  20. His new album is more blues-y and it fucking rules. I’d make him say no every year.
  21. I believe we’ve crossed the Rubicon. Get your guy CDC, and make it official ASAP.
  22. I like Utah’s plan. Resign Markkanen because they’re not going to get enough good picks from teams like the Warriors. Surround him with dog shit players and tank for Flagg. If Reinsdorf flunks the competency hearing, it might work out for them.
  23. Are we sure aggy makes it in with 9 wins? Elko has made multiple public statements about aggy playing an easier OOC schedule, so they need to go 6-3 in conference. Without looking it up, I’m guessing they’ve broken 6 SEC wins in the Manziel Heisman season and the Covid season. These idiots thinking they’re a playoff participation trophy locks every year is just another plank on the aggy rollercoaster. .
