  1. Ummmm. That’s comfort AND speed.
  2. Hope korie black cleans that up next year
  3. Fucking lulz.....
  4. Posse East is the correct answer. Unless you need hard liquor. In which case I recommend sneaking in a flask.
  5. Saw them in '07 at the Congress Theater in Chicago with a good friend who passed away two years later. Shane was a drunken mumbling marble-mouthed mess. But he nailed the vocals. It was fucking awesome. I'm so goddamn happy I got to see them live, and will always cherish that memory. Listened to all of Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash and If I Should Fall From Grace of God yesterday. RIP to an absolute legend. Steve Earle is absolutely bonkers coked up in that interview. Hilarious.
  6. Your finest work. You should pull a Costanza and quit on a high-note.
  7. Your buddies’ daughters are all getting dick down’d by Arch? Pics?
  8. Valid points. I don't feel that DL will be a team weakness next year because of Bo Davis. But I also think it's fair to be somewhat concerned that we will have difficulty replacing the production of the guys that are leaving. Perhaps we'll be surprised two years in a row. But hope isn't a strategy.
  9. Dude won't have to jump out of a window to lose a leg. The beetus is gonna take care of that for him, it seems.
  10. Of all the insane shit about Aggy that I'll never understand, perhaps the one thing that is most mystifying is why they insist on being so declarative about shit that can be so easily factually disputed or disregarded based on historical performance. "We don't have a plan B. We identify our top target and go get him" - You literally hired your backup plan when the original backup plan was mocked by your fanbase. "This is not an 8-4 job" - Your historical performance over the past 25 years is 8-4 and you hired a guy that fell short of those middling expectations in the ACC. The plaque. That's all. The plaque. NONE of that shit needed to be said or done. They're so fucking obsessed with projecting their own (hilariously inaccurate) manufactured sense of confidence and superiority that they continue to do and say unbelievably stupid shit. They publicly state that one of the main things they were looking for in a coach was his ability to keep their illustrious #1 class of all time intact. Never mind that from a program-building perspective the class was comically weighted to one position group, filled with character risks and out-of-state mercenaries that aren't ever likely to succeed. Who from that class has turned into a "must retain" stud? Name one. You can't. Walter Nolan? He's a good player. He's not a dude opposing OCs have to scheme around. Evan Stewart? He's gone. Bryce Anderson? Maybe he'll get there? If you're wanting to rid yourself of the festering rot of mediocrity that has plagued your program for 25 years none of those guys should matter. Project cautious confidence in the capability of the new guy and give him time to build the program the way he wants to. But no, you can't do that. You're making decisions that will reverberate for decades hoping against all odds that you win one game next year. This is how stupid people run shit. It's fucking absurd.
  11. The people that remember Lam Jones are now eligible to collect social security.
  12. I'd rather he be fast than slow...
  13. Sweat is starting to pop up on a few mock drafts as a late 1st round pick. I've also noticed that Sanders and Ewers aren't showing up on any new 1st round mocks, and Worthy - who used to be a consensus first rounder - is only on about half of them. In fact, Mitchell seems to be trending to be the first Horns receiver drafted.
  14. That's how they think blaggies talk.
  15. Binged Blue Eye Samurai this week. Very good. Definitely worth a watch. Animation is fantastic. Interesting story. Good character development. Looking forward to a second season.
  16. That is not a topic we want to revisit at all and we should all neg Vertigo for even trying to open that stupid fucking cloak room can of worms. Edit: Talking about the activism part. The plane thing was about Tom and Michelle getting hammered on a private jet and fighting with each other and her trying to open an emergency exit mid-flight. Allegedly.
  17. I don't think I've ever had prime rib without horseradish sauce. Is this not a common thing?
  18. They're only looking for one new coach. The head coach. All the other coaches are staying because the only thing wrong was the head coach.
  19. Elko's not turning them down. If you believe that scoundrel @closetojumping he's actively lobbying for the job. He just gave a non-denial denial re: his interest in the position. That being said, if they fire Jimbo and end up with fucking Elko, I will laugh heartily. I'm still rooting for Dabo so we get to ride this rollercoaster again. It's a really fun ride.
  20. I don’t disagree. I just don’t think you can call it a red flag.
  21. Its fucking UTSA. They’re not gonna have a winning record vs top 50 teams regardless of how good their coach is. Kirby smart wouldn’t have a winning record. Be realistic here.
  22. While I don't think the next hire is going to be able to demand the same stupid contract they gave Jimbo, I don't see any scenario where someone takes the job for less than what they're paying their former coach annually. The floor is the $7+ million they're paying Jimbo to fuck off. You can't still be paying the old guy you fired more than you're paying the new guy.
  23. Then who? Realistically...
