  1. Hurts was good, but the Philly defense should have been awarded the MVP collectively. One KC first down in the entire first half? That's insane.
  2. Goddammit, dumbass Philly going for it on 4th just cost me winning my pool
  3. Glad I caught the last several minutes of Hubie's last broadcast. The man has forgotten more about the game than I'll ever know by a factor of about 100, and his love of the game has always shown through.
  4. I read that Jackie Zykan started her own label called Hidden Barn. It's associated with Neeley Family Distillery. Sounds like she got tired of the big distillery game.
  5. Most definitely
  6. GIMME ALL YA GOT! GIMME ALL YA GOT!
  7. Great idea. And while we're at it, we should commercially develop the Korean Demilitarized Zone, too.
  8. Any top 5 list of gangster movies that does not include Goodfellas, The Godfather, and The Godfather II is objectively wrong. Surprised that Donnie Brasco and Eastern Promises have not at least been mentioned yet.
  9. Lakers are 4-1 without AD this season.
  10. I'm comparing Sorrell and BRob in terms of the type of career Sorrell might have, i.e., what i think his ceiling as a pro likely is. I'm not necessarily comparing them with regard to individual attributes.
  11. Doesn't have the explosiveness or bend to be a great pass rusher, IMO, but he sets the edge well and has some heavy hands at the point of contact. In terms of the type of NFL player he could turn out to be, I think Brian Robison might be a good comparison. BRob started out as a sub and made himself into a solid starting LDE as a good run defender who (in his peak years) could also get you 5-9 sacks per year along with plenty of pressures and QB hits coming from the left edge.
  12. Buy a cheap cooler in Bozeman, hit a grocery store (there's also an Albertson's in Livingston right off I-90 when you exit for Hwy 89), and stock up on lunch stuff, munchies, sodas, etc., and save yourself the time and trouble of hitting a concessionaire in the park for lunch. That way you can eat lunch when and where you want when you're in the park. June is going to mean heavy traffic in the park, unfortunately, but you still should be able to see lots of cool stuff, e.g., Mammoth Hot Springs, Lower Geyser Basin (incl. Grand Prismatic), Upper Geyser Basin (incl. Old Faithful), and Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. It'll be a full day, but well worth it.
  13. Yeah, that elicited a chuckle from me as well.
  14. Love that movie. The final scene between Bridges and Pine is worth the price of admission alone, IMO.
  15. Saw it last weekend and liked (but didn't love) it. Agree that Law did a fine job, and I also thought Hoult was really good in his role. Jurnee Smollett, OTOH, was out of her depth. One of the things I didn't like was . . .
  16. Once again, I'll be rooting for a meteor strike.
  17. Baby clothes. This place has got everything.
  18. Christ on a cracker, what the fuck am I reading here?? Beating on pans with a mallet and a two-by-four? There is not a pan in the fucking world that is worth going to that amount of trouble, and I'm including my cast iron stuff that I love.
  19. We're on a mission from God.
  20. All this game is doing is pissing me off by causing me to think about how Texas would have beat these couch-burning jackoffs ten days ago if just 2 or 3 plays had been different.
  21. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/43494885/texans-coach-kris-boyd-push-assistant-not-disrespectful Oh, no -- not disrespectful at all. Lulz.
  22. It doesn't see much activity, but maybe you can rev things up a bit over there. I prefer the usual taste profiles of bourbon (e.g., vanilla, honey, caramel, cinnamon, etc.) over those of scotch or Irish whiskey, so my cabinet has far more bourbon than other types of whiskies. But every so often I'll pull the cork on some Irish or scotch, esp. when the weather is colder. A pour of Redbreast with a pint of Guinness is pretty damn fine.
