  1. RT needs to give Jeremy Roach a call.... today. He's probably too late, but dude would be a great 1 year rental.
  2. It is definitely LOL, but honestly, presuming Wrexham do get promoted, and Rob and Ryan are willing to pay up, I imagine they are going to try to place some US names on the team. Weston is too good, but if I am, say, Haji Wright, and they are willing to throw Championship money at me, I am listening.
  3. I've been powering through in between other shows. It's a lot of fun. A lot of the actors are horrible (although many are good) and outside the main guy, I can't recall anyone being in anything else that I've seen. It took me until the episode in season one where they go pick up the coffin in the small old west town that when the Asian actors speak English with no accent, they are speaking Chinese, then whenever they interact with a white person (other than Ah San and Mai Ling, given they knew English already), they speak in broken English. It's a choice. But this show is too shallow for subtitles so I appreciate it.
  4. Which is why he needs to be grey rocked if he loses this fall. It should have happened in 2015-16 but the novelty and related ratings wouldnt allow it. Here is to hoping if he loses that he gets no more oxygen from the press. Hahahahahahaha…….
  5. Who was the squealer on the plane? So many unanswered questions. But seriously. Really liked last night. Should have had a crazy eyed killer cameo though.
  6. I am all for playing Biro more but I presume that comes with 19 yo mistakes. Jimenez was really bad Saturday but I still think Pereira and others give the ball away too freely in the back and leave those guys exposed. Is Hedges hurt? I think he’s been effective too. I didn’t see him warming up to come in Saturday. Perhaps it was just “old guy gets to rest”. But I am down with putting him and Cascante back there with BHi until Kolmanic and then Vaisenan come back. I don’t know what to make of Cascante. He makes 3 amazing and 2 boneheaded plays a game. I like the dude and he’s an AustinFC OG. But I wonder if at full strength BHI and Hedges are better with V or Kolmanic pairing with Gallagher.?

    Yeah, that was a blast. Love Biro.

    At the game. I called their offside when it happened. Was obvious. How the hell did our goal get overturned? I didn’t appreciate they could review for a foul like that. Thought it was just offside and penalty. Sucks because it was a beautiful strike by Obtien.
  9. My aunt and uncle are in their early 60s and are successful business owners in Richmond VA. I love them and hanging out with them. They are fun, my cousins (their kids) are fun and it's always a blast to see them. But they fell hook line and sinker for the drag queens and pedos in schools bit that Youngkin and others have been selling. Even though they don't have kids in school anymore. Even though they aren't particularly religious. They are relatively good natured about it when I give them shit. For instance, every time they say the word globalist, they have to drink.
  10. Yeah; Indont get the double standard white knighting for Mulkey in this thread. She’s done two unequivocally unredeemable things that transcend the sexism double standard (which I agree with by the way). 1. Apologizing and being annoyed by the plight of female students at Baylor during the Briles era, and 2. Shaming and potentially facilitating the public outing of gay players on her team. So yeah, all of those negative adjectives about hard nosed women in coaching and the workplace get flipped to positive adjectives for men all of the time. And perhaps it applies to Mulkey some. But those two things above are beyond the pale and are irrelevant to the sexism argument. Fuck her.
  11. Transactional law…
  12. My take having not read the books, but answering some questions upthread to see if I am right?

    Interesting.... I always thought Valencia was way less dynamic than Pereira, but didn't leave the back line hanging out to dry where Pereira could have a few runs in a game, but when he was at the 6, the back line was left in lurch a lot when he failed to clean stuff up. I really like Valencia for what he is and glad he's on the team. I may be full of shit as well. Agree Pereira and Ring looked good Saturday.

    Was there Saturday. Dallas is really bad - at least what they trotted out there. I didn't think anyone could have a worse starting XI than us, but they did. We were dominating them all game. Driussi's dime was stunning and a reminder that he is a different level of class than most in MLS. I'd love to see some MLS nerd write an article ranking the DPs across the league. My guess is Ring and Rigoni wouldn't be the worst as I imagine there are some that are always hurt and never play. But Rigoni has to be near the bottom and Ring, as much as I like him, is not DP quality. I wonder if collectively ours are the worst? That has to be remedied at the end of this year.
  15. As a Duke fan, those dudes played like ass today. I hope Flip doesn’t decide to come back. And on bright side, he doesn’t have Edey tape to plummet his draft status next week. He would have gotten dominated. Now Burns/Edey should be fun.
  16. Duke over UH Clemson over Baylor NC State over Tech
  17. Grant Hill is right though - if he plays and he shouldn’t he could really fuck it up. Grant knows more than anyone. Roach summoning his 2022 tourney persona.
  18. Ball don’t lie. But it seems to always lie with this guy.
  19. Both teams are fucking beating the shit out of each other. Not sure what refs are supposed to do. Hope Shead is OK.
  20. I landed a Bijan one of one on a break a few weeks ago and decided to just focus on getting his cards for me and my son. Has been fun. Box full of them now.
  21. Rockets catch a break with SGA out tonight. Keep it rollin'!
  22. Thanks. I've been buying up Bijan on eBay when I can find deals. Has been quite fun.
  23. Loved it. It's seems less tied directly to The Gentleman (the movie) than to the Guy Ritchie-universe in general. Callbacks to Lock Stock (weed farm guarded by stoners), Snatch (boxing, gypsies), Rocknrolla (rich narcissistic addict in debt setting off a ridiculous chain of events), and a look into the various ethnic and regional gangs across the UK. There other easter eggs, but I wonder if this is multi-season with same story, or whether they could do a Fargo-type anthology.
