  1. I remember that and remember thinking you were full of shit. But you may have actually had a point.
  2. Melvyn Bragg will no longer be hosting In Our Time. If you've never listened to an episode, give it a shot. It's a panel show with three different academics each week covering topics from math, history, science, literature, and everything in between.
  3. Hold up. You're telling me that girl is from Pflugerville?
  4. So does my school district. But this talk of Nepalese food is making me hungry. Might need to check it out for dinner tonight.
  5. The school I teach at has a growing Nepalese population. I met several of the moms at open house this year and they were all smoke shows. I just feel like the board needs to know about my new Nepalese fetish and this seems like the best thread to mention it.
  6. This take is so bad I had to double-check to see if it was posted by Helobius.
  7. Fantastic game and 41-40 is a scoragami.
  8. I do not understand why you kick the XP there. Down by 15 late in the game, go for the two-point conversion now. If you make it, you're only down one score. If you miss it, you know you need two scores to win the game and you can plan around that. Edit: just saw the fumble. Holy Shit!
  9. One other thought on Trump at the US Open. The camera cut to him right after Alcaraz won. The crowd is going crazy, Alcaraz is hugging his coach, and Trump is just standing there with a scowl on his face. He is so fucking narcissistic that he can't even find joy in someone else's happiness. He just watched the culmination of an amazing two-week run by Alcaraz. Seriously, the man lost one set total in the tournament and just destroyed his biggest rival. Everyone is amazed and Trump can only think about himself. Clearly, it's not his worst trait, but it is infuriating.
  10. Give 'em time. They will fuck it up. I'll put the o/u at Week 9.
  11. It was just Utah St. Sure it's a win, but you don't need to think about it every day.
  12. Speaking of winter, do y'all drip your faucets when the temperature drops below freezing?
  13. Need some help from the surly hivemind: we're doing a family trip to Rome in December. My parents (in their 70s), my son (17 years old), and I want to go to a Roma match at Stadio Olimpico. Is there anything I need to know before going? I see some good seats on stubhub. Is it just as easy as buying them and downloading the tickets like I would for an American sporting event? My parents are still very spry and active. They go to every LSU home football game (and several away games) so they're used to stadium walks, stairs, big crowds, etc. Is there anything I should be concerned about with them and accessibility?
  14. Yeah, I'm not buying any of that. Hooker and a mad pimp is my working theory.
  15. Do we know if Vance will be at the game today? Does he bring the same curse as the Cancun Cooler? We can only hope so.
  16. From my living room recliner where I'm drinking coffee and thinking about buckeye destruction: FFFFIIIIIIGGGGGGHHHHHHTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  17. This. I've been waiting a long time for this weekend and I don't need all the games canceled because of some "This is a time for reflection, not for sports" bullshit. They need to postpone the announcement until at least the end of the LSU-Clemson game tonight. Although I wouldn't mind if reports start leaking in say the early 3rd quarter. That could lead to some fun times refreshing this thread while watching the end of the game.
  18. Bon Aire has great crowds on game day as well. The Tavern is my go-to spot. My wife and I were talking about it and I think we went there for the 2005 Ohio St game and for the Rose Bowl. I guess I should go there tomorrow to repeat the 2005 magic.
  19. Yes. Doris Burke! Bumping her down and leaving Richard Jefferson there is ridiculous.
  20. Great cast, but I wasn't impressed by the trailer. I hope I'm wrong, but it feels like they spent their whole budget on A-list stars and forgot about a plot and a script.
