  1. Holy shit. Great win and that is going to do amazing things for Amen’s shot confidence.
  2. Which one of you sickos is going to the plunge first? Sam’s Boat on Richmond has crawfish.
  3. Kick out to Brooks. Sigh. Edit : much better play.
  4. Roll Call outclassed SEC Shorts this season, but Vandy Pimp was a bright spot. Both never go for the satirical kill shot despite ample opportunities on the field. Oh well, something mildly amusing to watch Monday morning at work.
  5. Doesn’t feel like our night when George Constanza’s body double is drilling corner 3’s.
  6. Correct. HLSR’s lease is up in 2032 and they’re displeased with the county misplacing their checkbook. I think theres a quid pro quo between HLSR and the county. HLSR will look the other way on the county violating their lease in exchange for autonomy. Each party gets along pretty well and they have mutual goals. I’m sure they’ll work it out. HLSR has some nuclear options outlined upthread. i believe the current preference is spend $2 billion on upgrading NRG Stadium and Center. There’s a cool plan for NRG Arena, but no dollar figure yet. Level 1 that building does in fact suck.I have no idea how they’d slam a 8,500 seat venue in the current footprint, but I’ll buy the other bullet points. https://www.chron.com/business/article/nrg-arena-designs-houston-20024540.php
  7. The Saudis flipping a switch to dramatically increase production is the greatest urban legend in O&G. They’ve lied for decades on daily production and reserves because they have no oversight. I’ll bet all of their production decreases coincided with desperately needed maintenance projects. It’s all talk to move markets. Hopefully Trump knows they’re full of shit. Any land brokers getting waxed right now due to wind permits getting canceled? My old broker bet pretty big on a renewable projects, and they were always operating paycheck to paycheck, so I’d imagine they’re feeling the pain.
  8. Jesus Cristo, no.
  9. Dismukes says hold my beer. I forgot the coffee shop sketch. Chalamet as a Def Jam comic was pretty funny. Please Don’t Destroy did the same joke better and recently, but it worked.
  10. Oh Hamm, he’s been cast as the lead in a very high profile Apple show. I’d imagine his time in the Sheridanverse is over.
  11. I don’t think Landman snuck up on Hollywood. No Sheridan show will after Yellowstone. I believe Landman averaged 15 million viewers per episode. That it is a gigantic hit for a streamer not named Netflix. I think the critics were hoping for a Michael Clayton type show, but we got something a lot more fun and unhinged. I’ll agree with the monologue followed by a reaction criticisms of the show. Sheridan did this far too often, but they were good monologues. It’s never going to win an Emmy or a Golden Globe, but that’s ok. Flawed but fun show is fair. I don’t know what Sheridan is trying to say about energy or the environment, but I’ve seen projections of 38% increase on the grid due to AI. The servers use an insane amount of energy. We’re going to need more power period to make AI work.
  12. Wolverines works pretty well still. Kaufman too. But yeah, it’s sketch comedy. A lot of stuff doesn’t work. Chappelle Show probably has the highest hit rate I’ve ever seen, but it was basically a 15 minute show entirely operated by one of the greatest comics of our time.
  13. It’s stunning how bad the Giants are. Wasn’t Barkley averaging under 4 yards a carry before joining the Eagles?
  14. Making Carson the villain was Reitman’s most curious choice. I know why he did it, Carson represents The Man and SNL was an antiestablishment show, but it doesn’t make it right.
  15. I think likability might be Chalamet’s super power. Good cold open, painfully bad Weekend Update, no memorable sketches, pretty underwhelming episode given the host.
  16. I’d probably bet the Thunder in 7 game series, but they could get knocked out by a lower seed like the Mavs before the conference finals.
  17. I fully expect the bartender at Pinkerton’s to be dripped up in vintage Rockets gear and telling everybody we’re winning the title next time I’m in there.
  18. Impossible to beat Juan’s for breakfast. Well done.
  19. Holy shit. We’re winning the whole damn thing.
  20. Wild Robot feels like a lock for Best Animated.
  21. I come in peace. Hannity has an ongoing, direct line to Trump. Brags on it on constantly. He called the Hagseth vote exactly at 9pm EST. Hannity also called Arizona for Trump at 3pm MST on Election Day. Nobody had that. When Hannity talks, Trump and his people think it’s happening.
  22. My wife and I are laughing pretty hard. Possible classic.
  23. This. There’s a reason why Deadpool printed money and Reynolds couldn’t get arrested in another big movie. Yes, i know Free Guy is an exception.
