  1. I agree. This is the biggest increase in competition she's ever seen. She'll adjust in time, and be fine. But people were expecting her to be as unstoppable as she was in college and that wasn't realistic. By the same token, her haters are clearly jumping the gun.
  2. Zach Bryan is country-ish. He has some really good songs, IMO.
  3. The flip side of this, being surrounded by her legion of sycophants, is how every media member in the state of Iowa is calling for the Fever to fire their coach because she clearly doesn't know how to properly employ God in the service of winning games. Or how her teammates just aren't good enough to handle playing with Caitlin. Everyone needs to get out of God's way and let her huck junk all night and all will be right. Both sides of the Clark argument need to realize that the WNBA, like any other pro sports league at the highest level of said sport, is full of the absolute best players in that sport. Maybe more so because there are so few teams. She's going to be fine, but there's going to be an adjustment period. She was never gonna run through the pros like she did college, but that doesn't mean she's anywhere close to being a bust.
  4. A buddy of mine went recently because his teenage son wanted endless shrimp for his birthday. Personally, I haven’t been since the last Bush Administration. In college we’d go sometimes to order the cheapest thing on the menu and fill up on the biscuits.
  5. It will kill it as we know it for sure. I'm not convinced people who never went to college, but are still huge college sports fans, would care. But you would disenfranchise the actual alums of these schools, and that would irrevocably alter what this product look likes. So I think we basically agree. I think there would still be people playing football and people watching, but far fewer of them, and not enough to matter the way it matters now. The budgets, the atmosphere, etc all would be dogshit compared to today.
  6. If this just turns into the UFL in college towns, it will absolutely take a hit
  7. Damn. Heal up quick!
  8. Pre-sliced braunschweiger? Now that’s up town
  9. Love jaeternice
  10. I would assume so. Lots of Czechs and Krauts in Texas
  11. This is very close to how I see it unfolding.
  12. Because those schools (not BC) will likely merge with the Big 12 for a large 3rd conference that competes in the same set of playoffs as the SEC and Big 10 (with less TV $ of course). I assume that Pac-ACC tier is the schools that don’t seem to care about big time athletics much getting together. I think this + unequal revenue sharing in the SEC and Big 10 is where it’s heading.
  13. Love the Kaui Brewing sticker
  14. It’s kinda wild how CUSA went from being one of the better mid majors to far and away the dregs of FBS so quickly.
  15. It’s like how you can still go see something called Lynyrd Skynyrd that doesn’t feature a single original member.
  16. To be fair, the black beans I had at lunch already cleared that path
  17. Braunschweiger, white cheddar, mustard, pickle. Chased with a Michelada from scratch
  18. That was a little sad in our house. Mizz State was a long time member of the Missouri Valley, which also includes Northern Iowa. My wife ran track for UNI and her conference meet a couple of years was at Missouri State.
  19. That's not the actual one we had. Just a picture of a restored one that looks much shinier than the one I was running.
  20. No. The city actually. Funny you mention Olivers though, as the other side of my family (the one that farms) had plenty, and a 1655 was the first thing I ever learned to drive (after the skidloader of course). And I know a lot of guys my dad's age who worked in that White factory.
  21. That might actually be more ridiculous than the flying cow. I kinda hate the first one too, for a bunch of reasons, but I still watched it as a kid a bunch of times. It's a complicated relationship. Engineered in a Chinese lab.
  22. Is someone making an Oklahoma stereotype bingo card for that trailer? We've got grain elevators, windmills, oil rigs, rodeos, wheat fields, run down diners, hay fields, cows. I didn't catch a meth lab in there, but I guess they can't bat 1.000. Seriously, that opening scene at the rodeo is the most ridiculous thing I've seen in years. Every one of the cell phones would have blown up at least 15 minutes before that thing touched down. Hell, they have enough warning any more they'd have probably postponed it before anything even got close.
  23. Assuming it doesn't end up exploded, yes.
