    Also he's the only DE currently committed. I'm sure there's a clearer path to getting on the field early.

    Texas BBQ

    LCHorn replied to Washpark's topic in Food and Travel

    I have been to Smitty's and Kreuz's multiple times, mostly as a host to out of town guests, and I've pretty much only been disappointed in the food compared to what we can get in Austin.

    I just don't see Harris accepting anything less than being the nominee. I like @softlynow now's suggestion--if Biden is going to withdraw, resign now. The entire media will be talking Harris for the next month and it'll give her a good opportunity to shake off some of the negative perceptions of her if she's ready for it.

    Lazy writing....they've set her up in opposition to Carmy, not because the plot demands it but to manufacture drama. Lazy writing.... Lazy writing.... Lazy writing...you only need one scene in episode two where she's brain storming her own entrees intercut with Carmy doing the same in The Bear's kitchen and it becomes about the frustration they both have with executing a Michelin starred menu AND it cures your problem.

    Impressive he didn’t pick Oregon.

    Sure-there’s zero reason for the campaign to float that he might be willing but I bet that conversation is ongoing. It might not even be about Biden’s willingness-if Kamala says “I want the big chair” and wants Biden to back her (which, come one, would be fair-Biden was rumored to have felt betrayed when Obama supported Clinton over his grieving VP in 2016) then it’s poised to have the kind of messiness that doesn’t line up for victory in November. Biden is only surrendering if he gets to pick the candidate and he thinks they can win. FWIW, in support of this version of what’s going on is her people are already putting that idea out there.

    I’ve come around to the idea that switching might not be a disaster. I think most of the Biden coalition voters are baked into opposing Trump and the remainder are open to an alternative not named Kamala. Biden’s debate performance and the media fixation with it will provide the permission in most voters minds. Tell me who the VP is and it’ll re-assure me about viability. You almost have to pick an African American woman, both to re-assemble the coalition and to keep Kamala out of the contest for potus and delay coalescing around one candidate. I think either Newsome or Whitmer would be fine and the short campaign will help them not ring up body blows that inevitably turns off independents.

    Maybe Kenny Baker needs to change colognes or something.

    I actually just want Gausman and for Toronto to chip in on the ‘25 salary for someone like Melton straight up (I’m not a believer, sell high). That said, Gausman had a ROUGH June and might be hurt and we have plenty of those already.

    Deploy the money cannon!
  11. LCHorn
    Yeah, no thanks. I’d rather chase a pitcher.
  12. LCHorn
    Incredible timing. They are about to capped out pretty much forever.
  13. LCHorn
    Yeah, the biggest problem with season three is that the bar has been set so high.

    I’ve got a $750k VA loan I didn’t lock Thursday because the buyer was overseas and generally I like to review numbers and firm up a commitment before I lock…oops.
  15. LCHorn
    Yeah, I don’t think our depth chart should be scaring anyone off. There’s a high likelihood of attrition after the fall depending on whether Gullete or Lefau wins starter snaps and which would put a capable freshman in the two-deep.

    Mark Price’s game would look a lot different in the modern NBA-probably twice as many three point attempts and half as many assists. I think they’d love for him to take a chunk of FVV’s minutes so they can replace the latter with someone cheaper in ‘26. Plus Fred will get injured at some point during the season.

    I'm not willing to go full @Wulaw Horn on it, but there's probably some legitimacy to what @CoachEmUp64 said above--if you have 5th year, maxed out seniors that have previous starting experience at major programs, you can get 75% of the benefit of better athletes by having enough of them you can keep them fresh. I don't think that's what Sarkisian is intending, but it might be what we have to live with.

    I have a suspicion it will over-perform. I think they’ve been trying to market to the evangelical/fly-over ticket buyers that maybe aren’t getting picked up by the tracking surveys.

    There’s nothing about The Gray Man and Citadel that would support returning to the Russos. Like Marvel in general they appear to mostly interested in spending tons of money on production budgets.
  20. LCHorn
    Unfortunately that won’t resurrect the lost momentum towards a future Avengers. $375m-$400m for Anthony Mackie Captain is bananas. That said, maybe it’s a sign they really like the movie if they are willing to make a bet that big.
  21. LCHorn
    Or he needs Harris to tell him she won’t seek the nomination. If Harris is willing to be VP on any of the speculated nominees tickets the whole thing would be so much easier. That said, and this sounds silly but it would settle some of the Kamala problem, get Oprah on board as VP for whoever.

    They did not cheap out on music rights this season.
  23. LCHorn
    You shouldn’t be, the Gray Lady has turned into a click machine but tuned to anxious lefties instead of Fox News. I still read it every day but they avidly lean into hysterics.
  24. LCHorn
    We finished it off last night. It’s not nearly as propulsive or compelling as the first two seasons.

    Love the trade-will be the second best shooter on the team after Sheppard. The only pick that would have been more fun would have been to draft Bronny James and then hold him for ransom.
