  1. How about a turrrrrrrible pic snapped when I took a quick break after hooking the speakers up? Took a while for the receiver to arrive. Cheap-ass Sony DVD/CD player is what I'm currently using to play CDs. All in all, there's plenty of juice for this small room. After this pic was taken, I found an old Paradigm sub in a box in the garage, so I'm gonna hook that up next once I find the damn cable. It should help with the lows that the KEFs just can't reach. Not sure what I'll do when I add a turntable. I typically don't want the 'table on the same surface as speakers. Might try it just see if there's an issue, and buy stands if there is a problem with the turntable being affected by vibrations from the speakers.
  2. Over the years, I've found that Bogle reds are typically a good value. Their '21 Essential Red made Wine Enthusiast's list of top-rated wines under $20 last year.
  3. A stellar collection of songs that were cut in studios in Muscle Shoals. Aretha, Otis, Etta James, Wilson Pickett, etc., etc.
  4. Saw it this weekend. Thought it was good, not great. It held my attention. Chalomet and Norton were both very good.
  5. "Cheat if you have to." So much for that vaunted aggy code of conduct.
  6. Pretty sure Robert Longerbeam is the dude's porn name
  7. And he's the one out of the three that I think won't get drafted.
  8. Bond and Majors are still available as well. Gotta think at least one of the three gets drafted. My guess is it'll be two.
  9. If you had Hayden Conner gets drafted before QE on your bingo card, raise your hand. [*nobody should raise their hand*]
  10. Not a QE apologist (he has his flaws), but Sark's playcalling and Cam Williams doing an "ole`" on Jack Sawyer were the main culprits. And fuck you for making me re-live that sequence of plays.
  11. The fucking Packers are giving this Vikings and Longhorns fan the sads.
  12. Yep. Like all of the QBs in this draft, QE has several holes in his game. But he also has some strengths to offset these issues. My guess is 4th round
  13. Don't discount the bad accuracy on deep throws
  14. FWIW, Brugler has Helm as his #7 TE. Most projections had him going in the 3rd or 4th round, so it's not a surprise he hasn't been drafted yet.
  15. Succinct and to the point. I like it.
  16. I'd say having two HOF QBs playing from 1992 to 2022 had something to do with it as well.
  17. Well, congrats Golden. You were terrific for Texas in '24. But now this Vikings fan has to hope you're a bust in Green Bay. I'll root for you again when you leave there.
  18. Was hoping Barron would fall to Minnesota. He's the kind of versatile player Flores likes.
  19. Cincy with a pure projection pick based on traits. Cuz it sure wasn't based on production.
  20. Force of nature. RIP, Mongo. You left your mark.
