    Wine

    Ah. Napa Cabernet at 12%. Wish they’d go back in that direction.

    My wife is half Cuban. When I met her family in Miami I heard the word gringo mentioned more times than I’ve heard in the 40 years since.
  3. VABuckeye
    As do I.

    And back to F1. If I expressed myself poorly I apologize.

    No I am not and it wasn't intended to come across that way. Are you disputing the fact that 15 years ago we never would have heard about these things? It doesn't make them any less wrong but there certainly wouldn't have been the worldwide attention that happens today. If every person in the world lost their job over something stupid they said or did the workforce would be drastically reduced. So, was it a stupid, one time offensive and immature thing to say or is it what he believes and how he lives his life? If it was the former is it worth ruining a career over or is he allowed to be chastised for what he did and move on with his life and career? It seems that for Jips his employer chose the latter.

    It’s not silly at all. Without social media, streaming and people that want to get offended by everything these were not stories 15 years ago. If it offensive? Yes. Would we know about it without the current culture? Almost certainly not.

    Not sure but I think it's driven more by the sinking PAC12 much like the sinking Big12 was for Texas and OU. Face it. The Big12 and PAC12 media deals suck and the Longhorn Network is an abomination. If the LHN had been a huge success and money boon then do you think Texas would have bolted?

    Who does he want to cover in practice to further his craft? Texas Tech receivers or Ohio State receivers? Easy choice.
  9. VABuckeye
    All much better programs than Kansas.
  10. VABuckeye
    Nah. Despite the feelings for Ohio State fans on this board I think most of y'all are all right.
  11. VABuckeye
    Good time to say fuck Notre Dame.

    This move is because the B1G is in the middle of negotiating by far the most lucrative media rights deal in history and USC and UCLA make those numbers go up by a lot. It's not all about you.
  13. VABuckeye
    I'd think that UNC and Duke are a package. UVA? Maybe.
  14. VABuckeye
    It's B1GX2 to you sir.
  15. VABuckeye
    I'll fly out for your first home game against us.
  16. VABuckeye
    Why would they? USC and UCLA both certainly meet them.
  17. VABuckeye
    B1G is currently negotiating a new media rights deal. It was already reported that it would most likely be over $1 billion. This makes it more lucrative.
  18. VABuckeye
    B1G TV deal says no sir, never.
  19. VABuckeye
    Notre Dame and that is fucking ok with me.

    The cancel culture loves to cancel people. It amazes me that people in the spotlight give them ammunition. That's a word I would never use in any conversation, public or private partly because I do see it purely as a racial slur and you know damned well that the cancel culture does as well. The same goes for outdated and demeaning descriptions of Asian people, Hispanics, etc.

    Silverstone week!!
  22. VABuckeye
    It's for the after burger root beer float.
  23. VABuckeye
    Isn’t this the exact thing that’s not supposed to happen? A deal in place before enrolling?

    I’ll defend St Kitts some. If you’re a hiker there are fantastic trails up and around the volcano. There’s also an old fort that’s fun for an afternoon. Beaches are not stellar for sure. There is some very good dining on the island. I’d suggest that anyone that goes rent a villa on the south side of the island facing Nevis. as far as third world goes we drive all over the island and interacted with locals and never felt unsafe. It’s a much cleaner island than the shitshiw that is the Dutch side of St Maarten where the local homes resemble a trash heap.
  25. VABuckeye
    Yeah. If people with young kids want the Caribbean I'd says Beaches on Providenciales, T&C is the best spot.
