    Lingua Franca, Big Table Farm, Beaux Freres, and Resonance are all worth the trip. Mostly Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
  2. Schloss needs to channel his inner Augie for the postgame speech with the team. That was a piss poor effort from the 5th on.
  3. I used to pass thru NRT every month and would always stop in. Then covid… sigh. So glad to hear it’s back. Some good memories… IMG_1235.mov
  4. La Crema has some good Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The Costco / Kirkland wines are very good for their price point. K Vintners out of Washington for Syrah / Rhone varietals (he also does some Cab and Malbec stuff). Lingua Franca out of Oregon for Pinot Noir.

  6. Thick-set, jowly man...
  7. 3D flight path from FR24. Likely loss of hydraulics for the control surfaces and damage to the horizontal stabilizer - they were probably trying to fly using only thrust to control pitch. That must have been an absolutely terrifying stretch for everyone on board.

  10. How does this square up with them losing Longstreet to USC at the last minute? Seems they would be going all-in at the QB position given Weigman's performance (or lack thereof) and Reed being OK but not a real game changer.
  11. I have not, but I will try them. I've been to a lot of star restaurants and Hidden is as good or better than most of them. I'm giving you a hard time because you think they're overrated. I actually think they are somewhat under the radar, and their product is outstanding. I think they deserved to have a star or bib at a minimum. I'm quite disappointed in the results for Houston.
  12. Yeah this is complete horseshit, but you're entitled to your shitty opinion I guess.
  13. Hidden Omakase in Houston should have a star. They're on par with a lot of the Michelin omakase restaurants I've been to in NYC, San Fran and Tokyo. I can't believe they didn't get anything.
  14. You fuckers negging me can put your tampons back in and go back to the CR. This is a news thread.
  15. Take the CR shit to the CR
  16. Here's how I do turkey for small groups https://www.heb.com/product-detail/butterball-frozen-boneless-turkey-breast-roast-3-lbs/140298

    Texas BBQ

    I didn’t take any pics but I ordered from 2 Guys 1 Pit in Spring since I’d heard decent things and was in a hurry to feed a group. Had moist and lean brisket, turkey, burnt ends, and pork ribs. It was all crap. The green beans were the best thing we had. Everything else was dry af. Could not have been more disappointed. Rudy’s would have been better
  19. From Gerry H on the OTF board regarding Jonah Williams: Per a family member, Williams still plans to graduate in December. And he plans to go through Texas football spring practice, while also be part of the Horns baseball team. Both coaching staffs are on board with the plan per the family member. Williams hasn't looked back on the decision to forgo the MLB draft or had second thoughts, to this point. Now mid-way through the high school football season, Ball is 5-0 with some big games coming up in the district race, he will begin to get some swings in on the diamond starting next week when time permits. Just to stay somewhat sharp before heading to Texas in January. Texas baseball has talked to him about pitching as well.
  20. ATACMS... Sorry, debris from ATACMS that had been intercepted by Russian air defenses.... doing work
