  1. Best value in the Four Roses lineup. Cheers. I paid $220 today for the 2024 Four Roses Limited Edition, and I don’t feel great about it. It feels like they increased the price $20 every year since 2019.
  2. It’s always been a 1 game season for them. The Elko making progress and moving the program forward bullshit is just lies they tell themselves. It’s why they shook off a catastrophic loss to Auburn in literally 10 minutes. If you don’t believe me, go listen to the TexAgs postgame recap. “We can still beat Texas” platitudes in the opening paragraph. I hope we win, I think we’ll win, if not I’m going to get it worse than many of you lucky bastards living outside of Houston. I’ve somehow become the Texas guy on a rodeo committee pushing 1,000 people.
  3. After Cigs Unfiltered got a $72 million deal, the basketball school excuse doesn’t fly anymore. I’m sure the UNC admins are straining rotator cuffs patting themselves on the back for “taking football seriously.” But they had to do it to try and move forward. I think they’re hopeless. Sumrall is the absolute best they can, and I’m not sure he can do better than 8&4 every year. On Mack, I think the UNC redux stirred up a lot of bad feelings from afar. I think the forgive and forget segment of the Texas fanbase is down to 10 posters on Orangebloods. But he’s a greedy motherfucker with fuck up step kids to take care of, so he gladly got paid again. He left UNC in shambles. Their 2025 recruiting class is currently ranked 78th.
  4. Lin-Manuel Miranda composed the songs for the first film. Didn’t work on Moana II. I think we discovered the problem.
  5. I saw a couple screenshots of the emails. Basically, everybody finds out next week if they’re getting a package or staying on. Is there anything new to report?
  6. Better episode because Jo isn’t in much of it? Maybe so. Something to think about in Season 3. Id imagine Saldana isn’t cheap.
  7. Gotta love Fat Brauny. Writes a post attempting to gas up Morcos, and then hangs himself in the replies by admitting that he’s at best 5th or 6th on aggy’s current list.
  8. I thought the 60 Minutes piece was very softball and superficial. Didn’t dig into the free tuition claim, and basically named board members with very short bios. More of a human interest piece than journalism. Should have aired on Mo Rocca’s segment on CBS Sunday Morning.
  9. Not if he has a Texas File subscription.
  10. Not bad. My puppies would grab the pointer out of Herbstreit’s hand and jump up on Saban until he rubbed their bellies.
  11. Much like the mythical flu bug against South Carolina, TexAgs keeps blaming the tackling like it’s a virus running through their defense. Not one word of criticism on Elko’s playcalling or scheme. It reminds of Jimbo blaming every loss on execution. I didn’t do anything wrong, the team needs to execute better. Somebody upthread said aggy’s super power was that they never learn. Co-signed.
  12. Based on the lettering, that’s a pick. Spec’s and Total usually have the SiB on the shelf. Picks come in a few times a year and are priced higher.
  13. Where are you located? I’m unfamiliar with that site. Did you drink a store pick single barrel or just a single barrel? In my experience, the picks are usually better. If it’s a pick, the store or group should be printed somewhere on the bottle. I don’t think WT does tags anymore.
  14. I don’t think BT intended to be anything more than a tribute to Elmer. Then the bourbon boom happened, and it got a reputation as a more aged Blanton’s for $40. Any bar charging more than $10 a pour should be publicly shamed. I have no idea why ETL is on Spec’s call list. I assume it’s based on how many cases they get. I’d much rather call me for Stagg Jr or Antique. But I always pick up my bottle in case they want to throw me some party favors while I’m there.
  15. BP wheaters aren’t easy to come by. Larceny is probably the easiest one to find off the top of my head.
  16. The TexAgs postgame wrap was weird mixture of: subtly throwing Daniels under the bus, blaming the players, not the coaches for not being ready to play, and who cares the aggys are different team at home, BTHO sip!
  17. We’re overlooking the headline here. 8&4 is very much back in play.
  18. Yep. They play next week.
  19. Perfection.
  20. Full on make up call bullshit.
  21. aggy has to be thinking load management here. At what point do they pull their starters to keep them healthy for their Super Bowl/Christmas/Mardi Gras?
  22. Haha yes. He committed to aggy without visiting. Not suspicious at all.
  23. Now that, is some funny shit right there.
  24. It’s funny because it’s exactly what happened.
