  1. You should watch some film. Deion would tackle folks but he rarely had to. You’re style of football departed the station about the time Darryl Stingley got paralyzed.
  2. Deion was the GOAT of cornerbacks, all cornerbacks. He took away an entire side of the field unlike any before or since. He tackled. Without him the Cowboys don’t win that last ring. He did that while playing very good baseball. He was Jerry’s best free agent signing along with Charles Haley. Diggs is nowhere close to Deion’s football brains or ability.

  3. Daniel hits on all the points. I think it goes beyond the heat wave. Inflation is hammering the shit out of most families between groceries, gas, energy everything, and $40 brisket kicks the shit out of them. I also think there is a bit of barbecue fatigue. I now rarely get it , even though I have a richness of opportunities within 20 minutes of my house. Maybe it’s the diabetes meds I’m on which kill my appetite but I just don’t get it but about once a month.
  4. Take that up with Oncor. REPs have nothing to do with it.
  5. This goes to the racket of college loans. In a true biz environment there’s no way one could borrow $300k for a uppity school medieval French lit degree. Uhh how will you pay that back? I lucked out. My son graduated at 17 and really wanted to be a tradesman like a car stereo installer or mechanic. He went straight into the Air Force and I paid $1800 up front to buy his gi bill benefits. He did not take advantage of the uMaryland classes on base but when he left after 8 years he looked into it. When he saw they’d pay him $3k a month to go to school he jumped on it and the AF had taught him how to study and learn. He got his BA in biz and is 6 hours short of his masters. 3 kids, work, and lots of hobbies I don’t know if he’ll finish anytime soon. If your kid is not focused on college the military, especially the Air Force and Navy provide a great place to learn responsibility and accountability. My son was a crew chief of a B52 at 19 with a crew reporting to him; outside the gate he wouldn’t have had that responsibility. Solid retirement fast too. I went to a small liberal arts school (Rhodes)and wouldn’t trade it for a big college. A well endowed school like that allows undergrads to do things that are normally in grad school at state schools. Depending on what you want to do. No one mentions them here much. It’s a shame college has escalated in costs so dramatically. In the late 70’s one could get an great engineering degree at a school like uta for like $6 -8 an hour so one could work and easily pay for school. That was a big enabler.
  6. Malia is hot so bring her back.
  7. I hated the Bandit style T/As back then which had all the decals to mask they had a wheezy putrid engine in them. Had a buddy in high school with a 70 1/2 TA that was a serious bad ass car. We also had a 64 Dodge Dart we dropped a Hemi in. I had a 70 442. We ate those thunder chickens all night long.
  8. My favorite color was always Mars Red, used by VW/Audi in the 80’s. Very bright red with a little orange in it. My 81 Scirocco S was that color. Haven’t seen it since.
  9. Half in half is the right product for mashed taters or buttermilk. While the potatoes are boiling warm the half in half and season it. Infuse with garlic and parsley. Also at least a stick of butter per pound of taters. That way it doesn’t chill your potatoes.
  10. The NFL script run thru meeting spots. Let’s add to the narrative it’s all scripted. Dummies. And now with the entire Kelce family.
  11. He took them to their vet who is a friend. I wonder what it costs to check out ten dogs?
  12. That sounds high. Go to powertochoose.org and figure it out. Filter your search to fixed rate to the term you want. Rates are up; we need more generation now. My 9.9 seems cheap now and it was an increase from 6.7 before. Would imagine you can get a 2 year plan for less. The retailer just sends you a bill. I’ve had champion, gexa, reliant, and a bunch of others and never noticed a difference. It amazes me that lots of folks think the electrons coming into your house are different depending on the retailer they choose. “I like that TXU. We’ve had it for forty years!” Uhh Redi Kilowatt ain’t making that power pal.
  13. If Dak would do that he could. It’s not like they can cut him with his dead cap number. He’s not the type to push it.
  14. It’s pretty obvious the aim of the show is to show boobs and hoohahs. There is little pretense these will be love connections. The “date” is obviously a bar around the corner from the studio and happens as soon as they get dressed. Most of them say “we texted a couple of times”.
  15. Forged docs. Italy keeping Kyle out of Italy just on principle. Interim everything. Sandy is fucked with this ginormous boat. Same number of crew on a 55m as a way smaller boat? I don’t buy it. I was hoping they would arrest Sandy and the rest of the crew. Sandy dug the quaaludes back in the day. Ludes turned ladies into sluts pretty quick.
  16. The man from UNCLE was a favorite in my elementary years.
  17. To add some excitement they should start letting us vote on certain scenarios to spice up a game if it’s dull. Like eliminate punting for the second half. Or make teams play their kicker at linebacker. Or go single platoon ball.
  18. Should be great fun. A train wreck. Own many of these ladies will have an onlyfans account after filming? Or already? Next they should go after the naked attraction model and just do it entirely nekkid. No blurring.
  19. This loss isn’t on the Diggs out and the o line. 1. Fucking penalties. Especially presnap penalties. So stupid. Especially on the d line. Micah get your head on straight. 2. Front 7 ineptitude against the run. Micah get off the middle. Vanderesch get off the field. 3. Dak. Took few throws down field. Most throws at LoS. Bad decisions. And won’t run. He has taken that aspect almost out of his game and he missed some open lanes. And he can’t put the team on his shoulders and will it to win. He’s not even at Danny White/Tony Romo level. He’s Steve Pelleur/Gary Hogeboom right now. 4. Mike. What the fuck mike. Personnel Packages. Hit the hole. Where’s Deuce? The Texas Coast offense is as clever as a Galveston beach tar ball.
  20. The best account of the Mississippi, the Corps of Engineers efforts to harness it, and the many societal changes wreaked by the great flood of 1927 is Riding Tide. I suggest it as a fascinating read. As said before the issues of the river, the delta, and New Orleans are complex and rooted mostly in the destruction of salt marshes and Corp efforts to maintain navigation and the commerce of the port. The issues aren’t from recent “climate change” events but of much older actions. I love New Orleans and the area. It’s important from commerce on the river and culturally as well.
  21. My Nola friends will tell you the best thing that happened to the city was the relocation of many criminals to parts unknown.
  22. Our son lives out in the country outside Shawnee OK. Yesterday someone dumped 10 puppies at their house near their barn. Weaned, great shape, in a nice large kennel. 9 boys 1 girl. They look like lab/ mutts and very nice looking dogs. I think my son will keep one I mean two maybe three. My wife was naming them in the pics and wanted to drive up and get four or five. We’re dogless at the moment and not ready for another. Or five. They know no one with a preggo dog but it’s like they knew they would care for them. A special ring of hell for folks that dump dogs like that.
  23. You make your taters I’ll make mine.
  24. Sturm likes that ghey Aggie whoop whoop they do in the brisket station. So annoying.surprised they’re not wearing those bedazzled overalls.
