  1. Reminds me of the '01 big 12 championship game where some simple misdirection on the run game makes an elite defense look like the scout team.
  2. Trying to remember a Cowboy player in my lifetime as dominant as Parsons right now. Larry Allen maybe?
  3. Narrator: She was not done. And they didn't fire Jimbo for another 3 years.
  4. Guys, we fired Mack Brown as a direct reaction to watching Johnny Manziel acquire naoch while beating Bama. So of course, the sole reason for firing our unlikeable asshole coach that was hated by pretty much everyone and nearly crashed a private jet while on a coke binge was because the aggies almost very nearly made the playoffs in a pandemic-shortened season. It's not that hard at all.
  5. The first season had a shitload of problems and wasn't at all what I hoped it would be, but I still found myself looking forward to watching it. I only read 3 of the books, so I wasn't that invested in the source material. They did lay a giant turd at the end though, that was bizarre.
  6. Yeah, the empire storyline is real driving the bus at this point which is interesting considering there was little about Cleon and Trantor throughout most of the original trilogy. Although it's been so long I may have just completely forgotten that part. I remember there being more empire stuff in the prequel books. It's a really interesting series, I just wish the acting was a little more consistent. There are some terrific performances and then there are some really weak ones. Any scene with Salvor takes me completely out of the world and into a SciFi channel quality production.
  7. Holy shit, Lima didn't know the trailing guy was there and just let it go by him. Horrid.
  8. But, they have a player named Nacho Gil that I assume they got off of waivers from the Simpsons Character League, so... advantage NE.
  9. Driussi with a free heade at the 6 off a Lima cross...misses wide left.
  10. Yeah, but how will you explain this to them?
  11. Interior OL question has been answered. Still shitty.
  12. This will be a flag on our DBs every time and not a flag on opponents for the entire year. We're going to have to catch the ball and the opponents will only have to toss it up and draw a flag.
  13. I'm more pissed that the offside wasn't called. It was close but I didn't think there was any way Lima kept Morris onside on replay. That pic looks pretty clear that the ball is over the line. Fuckin hell of a save except it wasn't.
  14. I've had the Barista Express for about 3-4 years and I love it. It's not too hard to dial in with the right beans. I don't use a scale to dose, I use the built-in grinder and consistently get a good extraction. I haven't tried the Bambino model, but my MiL bought the Barista Pro because it came in red, and I hate it. It's fucking fussy and shit and is very difficult to dial in.
  15. I read something similar a while back, or maybe heard it on a podcast, specifically relating to music. It was about a summer in a band or session drummer who was confounded by a complicated rhythm or something and they did take after take and just couldn't get it. They called it and went to bed, then the very first take the next day the drummer nailed the take perfectly. I'm the type that processes things slowly over time, so I like to put some time into a song or recording, then move on and come back to it a few days later. I'm interested to see how I do with deadlines. This prompt fired off a lot of ideas for me, so it shouldn't be tough to complete, but I am sure i will find some future prompts more frustrating.
  16. Cascante trying to make me miss Keller.
  17. Stuver was a bright spot at many times during the first season when the whole team was trash. Last season he was a leader and played well most of the season. He has been trash the last couple of months, so maybe this is just who he is going to be. I think he can be much better.
  18. 3-1. That Memo miss stings now.
  19. Make that 19 goals on set pieces for these fucks. Come on, we really need a point here.
  20. Nice, had no idea they could do that.
  21. That is fucking absurd and seriously fucks us for the rest of the game.
