  1. Heupel seems to be taking the fashion advice of Bret Bielema later Arkansas seasons, who usually looked like he’d been spent the winter inside a dead moose. Heupel looked like he’d been on a five day bender today. Look like shit your team plays like shit.
  2. I hate the centralized pickups. It’s the trend. The worst is Las Vegas which I’m amazed didn’t outlaw rides hard. The airport has a whole floor of the parking garage for RS, but the worst are the hotels and convention center. The hotels usually have you go two miles down some old corridor beyond the employee lot. Lvcc has equites you to walk at least theee mikes to a RS spot.

    Dallas | BBQ

    I’ve had Tender’s at the original in Celina. It was very good. I’m bbq’d out. Living in Arlington I’ve got a dozen top places around me, but still usually go to the drive thru at David’s which is Sonny Bryan’s nephew. It’s solid og barbecue basics. $20 a lb brisket and $14 LB really good ham and turkey I buy instead of deli meats. Near me I’ve got Goldee’s, Hurtado, 225, Zavala’s, Off the Bone, and Jambo’s. Drive 20 more minutes and I’ve got Heim, Dayne’s, Panther City, Brix, Railhead, Slow Bone, Dylan’s, and a bunch more. I don’t know why anyone would get in the bbq business. Food costs, labor, fuel, waste, rent, everything is stacked against making money in that enterprise.
  4. I posted that in the wrong thread. Fucking alzhenheimers
  5. I never was a Kiffin fan but his time with Saban after being fired on the tarmac refocused him and he’s turned into a good ball coach. I hate Ole Miss but he’s doing solid work there. And he did exactly right in this situation. I hope the judge dismisses the lawsuit and tells the player to get his shit together and grow the fuck up.
  6. Deion will go where Deion wants to go. I don’t see him staying at Colorado because like JSU, the stage is too small, the money too small. Sure they are getting all the attention now but it will die down. If CU replaces the role of OU in the Big12 it’s still going to be smaller taters that the others. If he continues to win he will get recruited to an SEC school as it will continue to dominate as the premier league, it’s the football culture he grew up in, and the money will be far larger, the recruiting easier, the media hype larger. It’s not a black thing. Deion doesn’t just rattle some white folks but he challenges many in the black elites as well. That’s because Deion figured out his path in high school to be bigger than his talent. It’s about the various characters he has built around Prime whether playing football and baseball, being a sports media personality, coach. This is partly ministry as well. His Coach Prime thing isn’t a black thing. We’ve had lots of black head coaches so that’s not unique and neither is his swagger. Coaches at a high level generally have spent years going from gig to gig, building a CV, tying to certain coaching trees, to get to the big jobs. Part of that is adopting the standard personna of “the coach” which is no different than most careers whether lawyers, engineers, or fast food managers. So head coaches, white or black, are fairly interchangeable. Deion is different because he’s made his money and started coaching as a head coach as his third career. Paid no dues but also didn’t rise up thru that culture. Probably breeds some resentment with coaches like Ruhle or a Sonny dykes. I expect Deion will eventually move to a premier SEC school, like replacing Saban or Kelly or Sark, or FSU. Or he may tire of the bullshit, and leave coaching behind once his kids are done, to return to media or do something else.
  7. Denverites like that BeauJo’s Pizza but it’s pure dogshit. They also think Famous Dave’s is good barbecue.
  8. He’ll likely get sent one of those Xenu machines and start sucking commissary and smokes by doing e readings.
  9. Yeah but one of the dudes is a lady, technically
  10. Back in the 60’s we had moved from ft worth to ft smith Arkansas. Mom would load me in her 54 Olds and head into the depths of the Ozarks seeking treasure. So far back I remember the old folks still had Scottish brogues. Mom would pull up at a hillbilly shack and ask to look around. “Would you sell this brass bed?” Lady I’d hate to charge you for that. It must be a hunerd years old! “Can I pay you $10 to put it in my trunk?” And off she’d drive. I loved the stuff she bought back then and restored but 50 years later she was just buying junk.
  11. One rule: no fucking beans.
  12. Wrestlers on Netflix about struggling regional independent Ohio Valley Wrestling. We enjoyed it. Still have a couple eps to watch.
  13. That’s an early start. The current CBA goes thru 2030. The NFLPA cares about nothing but revenue share and dumb shit like limiting practice time. Player safety has rarely been an issue, just like taking care of vets. It took decades to get them to certify agents.
  14. These women were born into the Church and subjected to the severe indoctrination of it growing up, and then the terrifying tactics of the Fair Play hit squads the Xenuists deploy against any threat. I hope the civil suits are able to better expose these bastards for the shit they throw against anyone that chafes the church leadership.
  15. That game was one of the most pathetic cowboys efforts in recent memory.
  16. Modern turf with the rubber flakes doesn’t have the issues old turf had. I think the data on modern turf vs grass is a wash.
  17. Yes she did. She also played Karen Sisco on ABC in the series. She was great as usual but it just wasn’t really Karen Sisco. Had she been cast in a series on fx or HBO back then with Leonard managing writing and creative it would have been great. If you’ve not read Karen Sisco short stories she is one of his best characters
  18. Bad grass is worse than good turf, and vice versa. I played on Astro turf back when it was just laid on asphalt and it was hard, horrible and hot. But I also played on hard pan, baseball diamonds, and really shitty turf. The NFLPA’s new ED is just trolling to make some hype and show off for his membership. Did it before we even know the specifics of what caused his injury, but Achilles are generally noncontact and suffered by speedy dudes like wrs and dbs. I don’t think turf had shit to do with it. The league isn’t going to move exclusively to grass. Grass in Giants Stadium is not in a climate to support 20 or so games a year.
  19. I’m fascinated with this show, just everything about it. I’m related to the white half of Quanah Parker thru Cynthia Ann, so the Comanche have always fascinated me as well as general native culture and history. I was in OA in Scouting so it fits back to m youth.
  20. Will be interesting to see them turn on each other next shows coming up. They all thought they would stay to the end. I hope they give them weapons to use upon each other. I’d like to see Marissa whupped with a dead chicken.
  21. Even the dumbed criminal knows China is worthless.
  22. We got rid of our china after repacking it and moving a dozen times, and then we had a thanksgiving dinner and used it. Not dishwasher safe so I’m washing the shit during the cowboy game. Fuck that shit. Got rid of it. Wife never wanted anything but fiestaware do that’s what we use.
  23. My late mother went from restoring antiques in the 60’s to being a avid collector to overcrazy collector to hoarder to complete full-on addicted out of control hoarding maniac. Think beautiful antique pieces, expensive sets of china, hundreds of creepy china dolls, buried in mountains of trash and cheap bullshit. Took me weeks to toss the dumpsters of trash and worthless dreck to put the good stub in storage to get the house cleared and sold. About down to the “good” stuff that is costing me $200 a month in storage. I would have been better to donate every bit instead of storage for almost three years. The kids want nothing. I want very little. No one wants fine china, or fancy figurines, or other clutter bought by a Depression survivor that was picking cotton at 5 years old living in a dirt floor shack. So many dealt with their bad memories the same way. I’ll look into some of these options.
  24. Wife won’t watch as it’s not yet listed on Does the Dog Die? So, does a dog die or get hurt?
  25. But making a comeback in Africa. It’s like Hoosiers. Polio having to creep around Ougabadou and Lesotho, an outcast. Plots a comeback to get back to the bigs to lay waste to America, leaving everyone in iron lungs. Heartwarming. Inspirational
