  1. Yes! Hopefully I'll be there during race week this time. 😁
  2. The Tarifa - Tangier ferry will be LIT! (Rode it this past summer and there were about 4 of us on it, so probably at least that lit.)
  3. That board's terrible. They were on the right side of things in the Willingham days but split off one of the other boards later in some sort of shit fight. If it were our version of Surly that'd be great but it's more like CR and texaggy joined forces and lost 95% of their posters.
  4. Yeah, same here. Some decent QBs have come through here in the years I've been watching, but this was an amazing season. Unfortunately I think Bijan will run roughshod through an extremely iffy defense - worse if the Horns can go at all downfield on a defensive backfield far, far worse than we had become used to up here. Should be a good game but it's definitely a road trip.
  5. Was there - that was a great game (despite UW losing). You just knew whomever had the ball last would score. IIRC, Texas was a double-digit favorite.
  6. @InkaUtexas you too. Most of the contributors on this thread are top notch and it's become my favorite thread on the Surl. Despite a pretty well-grounded knowledge of 20th century European political and military history, I learn a ton of stuff here daily. Thanks to all of you for that and for keeping us all abreast of everything going on. (And, since there's a few of you based over in Europe, if any of you are in Ljubljana New Year's Eve, drinks are on me.) 😉
  7. Lamentably I must pull for USC here in the hopes UW gets the consolation Rose Bowl berth. I feel so dirty.
  8. Kraken beat Kings 9-8 in OT (despite not scoring in 3rd period); highest scoring OT game in NHL history. Squid have won 6 straight. Much more fun than last season so far....
  9. They really should just say "Ya know what, Mexico? We're sick of that 'puto' shit. Fuck on off back home."
  10. 3.45 am, sitting at the gate at Spokane Airport - ready to get home. Was planning on driving but today's weather in the passes is supposed to be 2 feet of snow, 50 mph winds. To hell with that. Weather was fine, mostly clear and around freezing. Usually it's worse. That was one of the crazier games I've seen in this series and I've attended 30 or so. Penix and the receivers were on all night. Sorry he'll only be here this year but what a fun one. Not sure if he's the real deal since Penix had such a monster season, but DeBoer wins everywhere he's been and a 10+ win season in his first year here is fine with me.
  11. Dammit, that was UW's last tiny chance to make the CCG.* * Unless Utah loses to Colorado lololololololololol
  12. I would have thought a 0-0 draw was best, followed by 1-0 Iran. Guess we'll see.
  13. Damn straight. Wanting to understand the lyrics and the culture was a big impetus to me (tropicalia and MBP as well). So... I cheer for Brasil and all my normal friends say to hell with that - more mayhem plz! Isso também.
  14. I find the same thing trying to understand Spanish... I'm better than I was but still there are enough differences to really mess me up. I'm by no means fluent or even close, so I'll defer to the Brasileiros here, but what I was attempting to say was "besides that, what else was there to do during the pandemic?"
  15. Hell, ass is still sore from last year!
  16. Por causa adoro a música e a cultura do Brasil (e por extensão Portugal, Cabo Verde, etc.) Considerando a relocalização para Portugal um dia. Além disso, o que mais havia a fazer durante a pandemia?
  17. Happy Dead Bird Day from the upper corner to the lot of you degenerate bastids. Thankful to have good friends, family - and this place to get away from all that crap. Football and futebol today, then on the road tomorrow to Saturday's Apple Cup. May you all enjoy this day and may next Thanksgiving find you with even more to be thankful for.
  18. Can't stand Neymar and I normally pull for the underdogs in any case, but while learning Portuguese I found out what an amazing country Brasil is... plus Serbia is full of gotdam vatniks. Normally I'll pull for the upset but not today.
  19. Picked up some Portugal team swag while living in Tavira this summer. Força Portugal!
  20. Up here we call that "football weather." It's always fun when the LA or AZ teams come up in October/November. (Actually it sucks, but we didn't really have it this season.)

    Portugal? Sagres and Super Bock are marginally better than Bud, so they might drink it if it's free, but Portugal is a wine country. Much of the rest of the world would rightfully revolt, and they should be supported in that action should it ever come to that. I'd still rather have a Quilmes or Brahma than a Bud, but I could see Argentina/Brasil looking the other way especially if it were free. 😝
