    Tackling atrocious so far

    These are the types of plays that lead to upsets -- fumbles at the opponent's 20 & dropped sure TD's

    Fuuuucckkkj

    Helluva play by Wisner

    Sleepwalking, this team is

    I see you have a problem with truth

    Terrible by Blue. Hesitates when he should be blasting north/south, and then he fumbles.

    Amazing turnaround by the Royals -- making the playoffs one season after recording 106 losses. Tip of the cap to KC.

    Although it does make it even more baffling, but whatev. My guess is that Haver got hurt in practice this week. He wasn't listed on the initial injury report, which suggests he got hurt just recently.
  10. Carl Spackler
    He's the backup DS. So cross your fingers that the #1 (Lance St. Louis) doesn't get hurt before or during the game.

    I'm pretty sure Wisner would play if Texas was playing OU or Georgia this weekend. He might play Saturday but I wouldn't be surprised if Sark rests him against Miss St to give his hamstring another week to get right for OU and Georgia. Fingers crossed that none of the three players you mentioned gets hurt on Saturday.

    I would think early October would be fine -- more tree color, that's for sure. You might get snow, sleet, cold temps, etc., esp. at higher elevations, so keep an eye on the weather forecast. Also, the lodging in the Many Glacier area basically closes down in September. And I believe that area is also undergoing a lot of road construction that is supposed to last at least into 2025. So the bottom line is that going to the Many Glacier area of the park in October will be a problem, esp. if the construction is still going on as of 10/25.

    I am now officially triggered.

    I don't disagree.

    I've come to the realization that the primary reason I have a pet peeve about the word "natty" is probably because 99% of those moronic douchebags use it regularly. Some even capitalize it.

    Yep, September is a good time to go. Crowds are down and the snows typically haven't hit yet. We did something similar when we visited in September of '19 -- Airbnb cabin near Tally Lake about an hour's drive from the west entrance. We didn't mind the distance because, like you said, the drives are worth it due to the amazing scenery.

    I have that same knife (also in black) but with a regular blade (flat grind) instead of combo. I also replaced the toothpick with a small fire steel. My version (non-serrated) was discontinued several years ago -- not sure why. Agree with your assessment about opening this blade -- the hole works but it takes some effort. It's a Leatherman competitor with the biggest drawback (IMO) being that it doesn't have pliers. But like all Victorinox products, it's engineered and made very well.

    Clearly DPI on that 3rd down pass. No call against KC, though.

    That's Howie Epstein, who was (physically and in other ways) just a shadow of his former self by 2001, when that tribute concert occurred. I had to look pretty close myself at the video to satisfy myself that it was him. Howie died less than 2 years later.
  21. Carl Spackler
    Yeah, I saw that as well -- it was something I did not know. Those effing pythons can kill you in more ways than one.

    The wife and I are one episode shy of finishing off Perfect Couple, and the only reason we're doing so is because we want to see how it ends. It's pretty fucking bad. Some of the scenes and writing are cringeworthy. It's a shallow soap opera set on Nantucket. I didn't learn until the third or fourth episode that the actress playing Amelia is Bono's kid. At least she's easy on the eyes.

    Annual Florida python roundup results in removal of 195 such sneks. I'm sure that's barely a dent in the population. https://www.yahoo.com/news/grand-prize-winner-removed-20-205303290.html Grand prize winner got $10K for capturing 20 of 'em. In the words of the immortal Jeff Spicoli, righteous bucks.

    Very Jekyll-and-Hyde game so far for Texas on offense.

    Finished off a store pick of ECBP last night and had a snort of Larceny BP (124) right after it, and the Larceny is definitely more my speed. That Larceny is some good stuff. Very smooth for a high proofer.
