Hatfield instituted the “Flexbone” at Air Force, basically the wishbone with more passing, but designed to hammer the weak WAC defenses and keep control of the ball. He brought it to Arkansas and he won with it in their late stage SWC years. He then took it to Clemson and then Rice. I remember when DKR introduced the wishbone and it was unbelieveable how dominant it was with its simplicity…as long as you had a Steve Worster. My favorite alltime Longhorn; he was so dominating hammering the middle of the defense. He could not be stopped by many MLBs alone. Before you knew it everyone ran the wishbone (or the Veer, kudos to Yeoman) nearly every college and most high schools flipped to it. I was playing youth football at the time and we ran it in 5th and 6th grade. It was so simple, if it was executed right few defenses could stop it.

How bout a Texas Fish Boil? Buffalo, Shad, snakehead, drum boiled up with a finishing flambé of west Texas sweet crude.

Enjoyed first two eps of presumed innocent. Read the novel back in olden times. Saw the movie. I like old movies getting remade in mini series.

If you don’t love It’s a Wonderful Life you’ve got a hole in your soul. It is the greatest film ever made. Look at you life and certain decisions you made and how would it be different. I don’t like musicals, as my parents were of that pre rock n roll generation that loved them. Fucking Camelot. I’ve not seen Singin in the Rain. West side story. Paint your wagon. Most other musicals beyond Disney.

You are correct. I’d say it’s not just celebs but anyone with public or visible positions. Lots of them I’ve met have seemingly dual personalities. Seems like many of the assholes publicly were nice backstage and vice versa. The most gracious in both places was BB King whom I often visited when he came home to Memphis. The least affected by fame was Chipper and Nipper, the RCA dogs, whom I had for celeb appearances at the stores I operated. They travelled like The Rolling Stones, and were the same dogs at the hotel penthouse vs at the photo event.

Used to be a 18 hole round on Monday. I remember Nicklaus vs Trevino. Lee threw a rubber snake at Jack and won it from there playing like a Dallas goat track hustler.

He probably wrote “Fuck off. Jordan Speith”

Will it make you buy their insurance?

I just got that stupid song out of my head and you put it back in. “…it’s the little pill with the big story to tell!” Now it’s in your head. I wonder if the real fat dude that can’t see his copier is unplugged is on jardiance.

The gravel fairway and live ammo belly crawl section is extreme

Majors are really all that matter if you’re planning a legacy.

The usga makes so many changes to a course that it’s hardly recognizable. You gotta focus on it; in some ways it’s more important for your caddy to gather all the intel.

I think scheffler’s problem in Kentucky has lasting issues on his game right now. 2024 is a wasted year for him it seems.

Is melting pot gourmet fare? Nope. But it’s a ton of fun for a young folks needing experiential events that get them off their fucking phones. Same with teppanyaki and Korean barbecue. When we liven in Denver there was a melting pot in an old mine in Louisville. It was a cool joint for basically dull queso and some chocolate dip.

She did but complained you lasted all of 90 seconds. She likes the long ride

We watched it this afternoon. Wife was yelling at McCarthy for being a whinyass loser. Seemed like everyone was just telling him he was to blame for fucking his career up when he was a part of something huge. The real Brat Pack was basically the cast of St Elmo’s Fire plus John Hughes from breakfast club. Cruise is not part of it. Comes from the New Yorker article. Lowe is correct that they were huge because of the article and blind luck. They caught the huge right wave of Hollywood making movies for young folks, the vcr and rentals, expansion of tv beyond three channels and rise of HBO. McCarthy believes his plan to be the next Olivier was wrecked by the article. But without it he might have been the serious but starving nyc actor. Lowe has a ranch on the beach in Malibu. Demi is rich and hot. Lea Thompson was brat adjacent and married well and has solid memorable roles like mom in back to the future. Lowe has some great roles. His role as liberace’s plastic surgeon was fantastic. He’s figured out accessibility and humility is his niche after wrecking his career with the original sex tape. He’s even good on The Floor.

I bet you’re one of those guys that gives a cop a hard time for telling you your taillight is out. Far more cops hand out warnings over tickets, ignore minor amounts of weed, and do the right thing. Unless maybe in dealing with douchenozzles like you.

I like seeing Cadillac in racing.

I want to see a mashup between Deadliest Catch and Below Deck. I think there’s a wide array of scenarios. I do believe in all of them Kyle the annoying Stew ends up dead. Like maybe in a stuffed live into a crab cage and sent to the bottom as bait.

I believe horizontal monopolies are worse than verticals. Example: Albertsons/Kroger merger is very bad but I’ve not seen any politician speaking against it from any party.

I’m an Eagle Scout and have nothing but great experiences in scouting. That would have been early 70’s. There were two primary troops in jr high: one at the Methodists and mine at the Baptists. My three buddies that were in the Methodist troop got diddled by the pedo scoutmaster on campouts. They all went to shit, going from good kids to criminals overnight. None made it to 30; two died in drunken car wrecks and the third suicided. The parents didn’t press charges to avoid shaming their sons but I think that impacted them as much as the dads couldn’t quit talking about it. They were always plotting to kill the pedo but never did anything.

Looked like Clint Howard playing against Opie.

I think you are thinking a retail/service corporation is the same as a coal mining company. Experiential operators like theaters have a ton of challenges getting folks to put down their phone and buy a ticket and cross the lease line. Also in a content creator corporation the driver for them is getting a movie distributed to as many theaters as possible. Sony will have to be competitive in the market to other theaters to ensure their films get as much distribution as possible. I’m a retail veteran with over 50 years experience with national chains, regionals, startups, family operators, dot coms etc, mainly in electronics. In all those years Sony Electronics never got a break from Sony Music or Sony films. In fact Sony Music obstructed several technologies that Sony Electronics wanted to introduce, some of which were actions contrary to the Sony BetaMax case. I’m not a monopolist. I’m a believer in competition. But situations change and content is disseminated and consumed very differently now. Theaters will go away if the business model can’t change. The issue isn’t theater ownership but competition from other formats. Day and date release finally started during Covid and will be the ongoing model.

He got paid Burrow money. Nope. I’m exercising his fifth year, and if positive extending in 25 and. Maybe franchising for 26.

They should have been rescinded probably 15 years ago. The world has changed greatly in terms of distribution since it was put in. Why shouldn’t a content creator be able to own a channel of distribution? Netflix does. HBO does. Amazon does. Combine that with the collapse of theaters. If a studio wants to own a few theaters then come on.
