  1. I kind of agree with them, but when we tried to have mental-health experts do this shit instead of the police, Republicans screamed about the City "defunding the police." Well, you can't have it both ways. If you're going to be lavishly funded based on your presumed ability to address all of the City's ills, then you need to address all of the City's ills.
  2. I'm in the "bah, Humbug" camp these days. I have oral argument next week, and then three depositions and an MSJ hearing the following week. And I somehow need to get a hearing on a TCPA motion set before the end of the year. All of that is on top of the generalized EOY bullshit that comes with running a business, having various social obligations, and dealing with a wife and kids who expect presents. I don't have time for any of this holiday bullshit. Oh, and on top of it Mrs.LL thinks she wants to buy a new house in West Lake Hills. So bah, Humbug and fuck all y'all.
  3. I gotta tell you--I'm real concerned that Alabama is going to get stuck going to Columbus or South Bend and is going to get absolutely boat raced. Alabama is a good team, don't get me wrong. But they are very suspect on the road (their three losses are at Vanderbilt, at Tennessee, and at Oklahoma, with road wins coming at Wisconsin and at LSU). And I really hate to be all "SEC, SEC, SEC," but the fact is that Alabama being a controversial entrant to the CFP and then getting absolutely drubbed in the first round on the road would be a bad look for the conference and could harm Texas and other SEC teams in the Committee's eyes in the future.
  4. Another perfect Saturday—Texas wins, aggy, ou, and Arkiesaw all lose.
  5. There is some serious unappreciation of aggy tears on this thread right now, and I find it really very puzzling.
  6. Pooooooor aggy.
  7. Oh, yeah—this is the stuff.
  8. SMU needs to wake the fuck up, cause they could still pull a Miami here.
  9. Oh, my, ‘Cuse.
  10. SMU just appears to have lost interest in this game.
  11. Oh, shit—‘Cuse is about to tie it.
  12. I really don’t understand how Missouri is still ranked.
  13. USC and ND is very interesting. ND just isn’t that good.
  14. Don’t look now, but Miami can’t blow anybody out.
  15. Cal and ND miss field goals wide right at almost the exact same moment.
  16. I do pity an announcer who has to find new insight to communicate past the second or third overtime. But if any announcer can do it, . . . Joe Tessatore is not him. I mean, Jesus Christ, Joe—can you really not find anything to say other than “good, old-fashioned hate,” 30-game home winning streak,” and “seniors haven’t lost a game at home?” It’s just an unreal lack of talent at the announcer and Georgia QB position tonight.
  17. They definitely should’ve gone for 2. Their defense has given up touchdowns on four straight drives.
  18. Roll Left, baby!
  19. That was definitely targeting.
  20. We throw down some real main-character energy.
  21. Yeah--it's my birthday, so Mrs.LL sprung for some premium tickets. Something about the locker room--like there's a club in the locker room NFL teams use when they're playing there? I don't exactly know, but whatever.
  22. Heading to London Town in January to catch the match against Leicester. This is going to be a fun time. But I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing, and would sure welcome any suggestions.
  23. That's on the list. It's one of the several properties Marriott has in Mayfair. And I guess that's a big question I have: for neighborhoods, should I hang out in Mayfair or should I do the Edition (kind of on the north end of Soho)?
  24. I stayed at the St. Ermin's last time I was in London and really liked it. So that's a plus and minus, right? On the plus side, I'm familiar with it and really liked it. On the downside, it's not new. And I like staying at a different hotel in a city like New York or London each time not just for the hotel, but also to explore the neighborhood a bit. And thanks for the restaurant recommendations. I don't think I've ever had Cambodian, so that may be something to check out.
