Merlot sucks

We all know you prefer the rich, complex varietals of Mountain Dew Game Fuel.

Ironically, the prized 1961 Cheval Blanc he drinks at the end of the movie is a Merlot, Cab Franc blend.

There was also that scene where Miles got a free ride when he'd already paid.

I’m more of an OG 4 loko guy but will settle for some strawberry hill boones

[Junior Bonner 6227]

So, who's next to drop? Kirkland on the 23rd, maybe? Anything sooner?

 

Just asking...

Doesn't that symbolize him finally moving on from his ex?

You're gonna have to try harder to get this thread back on track. Perhaps throw in some cheese puns next time

So anyways, I think it's a gouda time for an introduction of some combo McRib and Chicken Fried Steak to eat while discussing mountain passes with a Russian whore.

A Chicken Fried McRib?  I’m on my own a few days next week.  I may have to give this a shot.

Yes.  Wine is a metaphor.  Myles thoughts on Pinot are his feelings about himself.  His feelings about Merlot are his feelings toward his wife.  The Bordeaux is their marriage.  At the end he drinks it irreverently from a styrofoam cup, then goes to see Maya.

You start cheese puns up again and you might get grilled.

It means to me we are about to now see full scale tiered farm teams… Great FR season at Troy in the Sun Bt gets you a spot at UAB as a Soph. Then a great SOPH season at UAB gets you a spot at Auburn

And the corresponding relegation

It would mean you would always be recruiting every player you want to keep or poach, even if they transferred before.  I can't imagine coaches like it, although they will say publicly they are for players being able to do what's right for them.

So who will our farm teams be? Nebraska and aggy?

She hosted Kimmel in 2019, did an 11 minute monologue and no one heard one word she said.

I suspect that transfer rule change is driven by the legal department. There's just not a legal defense for the one time restriction, however much it makes sense from a competition and order standpoint

Since when has the NCAA ever made preemptive moves on this type of stuff though? Usually they just get dragged kicking and screaming by the courts

Yeah.  The 1-time rule makes sense to a point, but I would think that rules more targeted to competition would be better than a blanket 1-time limitation.

[Hookem2147 20925]

They should just title it the 'Bru McCoy rule'. Can't make up your mind? Switch colleges every few months!

Jackson St BBQ used to do chicken fried pork ribs before they shut down, they were as good as you would think.

Long term this is probably a terrible thing for the sport and the players that come down the line.  The only reason 18-21 YO's have value for playing football is b/c of their connections to colleges.  If they were semi-pro teams they'd be paid about like baseball players- who make less than minimum wage unless the owners are shamed enough to throw a bone or two their way, or like G leaguers who make something like $1,000.00 a week. If you turn this into a great re-set every year and destroy the bonds with colleges then that will drive people away from the sport and they will have nothing in the future.   It's a dangerous game and those doing it right now have no incentive to do what's best for the future, b/c they will only be there for 3-5 years.  

It's hard to make something work when nobodies incentives line up.

People continue to root for MLB and NFL teams based on like 3 or 4 mainstay players and the rest shuffling in and out or being known expendables.  College basketball is already a yearly rent-a-team scenario for many top schools and has been for a while.
