  1. I love the show, but can we get this poor bastard a F250?! It gives me the sads watching him pull cattle around in a Range Rover.
  2. The guy that got a 0 year was told he was moving into a new group, but they forgot to give him any work to do for the better part of a year. Some real Seinfeld Penske File type shit. His old manager conducted his performance review and buried him. He didn’t take a bonus for 3 years. The guy that got a 1 is pretty good is pretty well known for watching Netflix all day. When landmen bitch about making less than engineers I look at them like they’re insane because they are. Some of us have no idea how good we have it. We only have to go the field if we want to wear a hard hat and take pictures. When I describe what I do to people in other industries, they are mouth agape shocked. Most of the stereotypes are true.
  3. Haha good for you buddy. I haven’t heard of anybody coming back from it in land. My company is a little different. I know a couple fellas that received a 1 and a 0 on their performance review are pushing 10 years of service.
  4. How many on the dreaded Performance Improvement Plan? That’s a death sentence at XOM.
  5. I really enjoyed 6. Lazlo’s dad and the Ghostbusters bit was pretty great. Also Nador’s pic with the possum killed me.
  6. The On3 national commentators think the SEC night games could be getting a better number than the FOX noon games. It was a bit confusing. They said they won’t know for sure until after the season.
  7. This. It’s completely plausible fOSU has watched their last night at the Shoe for the foreseeable future. They scheduled Marshall and still played at noon. They’ve watched their last away night game at Penn State and Wisconsin. And they’ll never get a night game at the Coliseum or the Rose Bowl. Much like Florida State, I have zero pity for them. They have good lawyers too just like the TV networks. They signed the contact anyway. Klatt likely came out swinging because he has too, and he probably loves his set up. His work day is done every Saturday at 4 Eastern. He can sleep in his bed every Saturday. Meanwhile, Herbie is living out hotel suites for 3 months out of the year.
  8. Is there a new Bregs-Yankee rumor? I caught the tail end of the segment while I was driving home.

    TexMex

    $2 at Los Tios. Today only. It was pretty good.
  10. I would certainly rank the French Dip behind the double pork chop. They did everything right on the pork chop, it’s a just very lean cut. Still good, but I like more marbling.
  11. He’s a MD too, but yes it’s pretty unusual. It’s a cool tradition, but the animal has to cooperate. Mike doesn’t want to be there, his caretakers have stated as much. Try again with the next Mike.
  12. Yeah they hinted at it with the 10pm shoot on a Sunday joke. I imagine they had to reshoot the whole thing. The drunk LSU mom was pretty funny. Otherwise, not great.
  13. It’s been reported that USC is being used to drive up NIL deals. I imagine that’s what’s going on with Longstreet. USC appears to be rudderless. Not sure what they could possibly be selling other than NIL bags.
  14. Pate is only out of clicks. If he could make more money on OnlyFans, he’d do that for a living,
  15. Should have ended it after Episode 7. That was, uh, not a good finale.
  16. I believe there’s a pretty viable scenario where’s a 7 way tie for 2nd place if we beat aggy. People are going to lose tiebreakers, get butthurt, and maybe 9 games finally fucking happens in 2026. The Cover 3 guys made a pretty compelling argument for the 16 team leagues all playing 10 conference games. It would eliminate a lot of these conference tie scenarios.
  17. And their dumb ass mods and regards like Ikard and Lehman argued that it was a smart move to extend Venables to bring him up to SEC average salary. They could have just given the guy a raise without additional years.
  18. I have no GD idea what they’re doing in QB recruiting. They need a variety of immediate help, and their current 2025 QB commit is 3 star Kevin Sperry from Denton Guyer. They can’t afford Underwood, but they should be chasing Russell, Longstreet, and JuJu. They need a jackpot in the portal, and I’m not sure if they can afford/land a player like that, and it’s not a guarantee he’ll pan out. They also have to convince Hawkins and Arnold to not leave immediately after the portal opens. I’m sad they won’t be bowl eligible. They’d almost certainly start Casey Thompson in the bowl game and get waxed.
  19. Edit: Florida State fired their OC, DC and WR Coach today.
  20. Bud Elliott-isms from the Cover 3 podcast today. - 1-9 gets you fired every time at Florida State but… they can’t fire Norvell because they just extended him. Whoopsie. - They fired their OC, DC and WR coach today. About $7 million to in dead money. Still cheaper than paying Norvell $63.8 million. - Even when FSU was 13-0 there was concerns about Norvell and staff’s ability to recruit high school recruits/portal reliance. To sum it up, Norvell is pretty easy to work for and doesn’t drive his guys hard. His staff in turn, doesn’t recruit very hard. - He said every recruit they sign is a pure NIL recruitment. They have to overpay especially on defense because their defensive coaches can’t recruit for shit. Kannell stayed silent during most of Bud’s rant. And really hasn’t been overly critical of Florida State. He’s even defended them at times by stating they still get good TV ratings. I’d theorize he wants to be the voice of the Noles or something official with the school, but I’m pretty sure he’s living the good life in Wyoming.
  21. Ah the famous 5 star OL that they mention during every single FSU game. FSU just fired their OC. A nice $6-7 million in dead money. Bud Elliott went in on their defensive recruiting today. Basically said every guy they sign they had to overpay for because the defensive coaches can’t recruit for shit.
  22. Bullock’s ball skills are next level. We sure he played for Lincoln Riley?!
