    Held under 3.3 yards in 2 of his last 4 (2.6 vs ISU (Baxter was at 5.9) and 3.3 vs OSU). Killed it vs a beaten down Tech team. His mistakes vs Washington put a damper on Washington game (non-contact fumble and a dropped TD pass). Most the hype is based on that TEch game. 

    You’re blaming the fumble on Blue?  That was Helm.  Can you explain to me why the TE is turned around looking at the back instead of finding someone to block and bury?

    Personally speaking, for me to give a shit about the other SEC teams (at least the ones outside of aggy and arky) then the SEC had better do a 9 game conference schedule and some sort of regular rotation so we see the other SEC teams on some sort of frequent basis.  Hard to work up any kind of hate for a team if Texas will only face them once every 12 years and will come to Austin once every two decades.  

    The Bama tards here in Dallas hate us plenty because we refused to bow down and kiss the ring.  I for one and looking forward to stomping the fuck out of all these mouth breathing sister fuckers.

    Yes, it is legal elephant ivory. 1,000 were made.

    Those commemorative Colts were originally priced @$1,836 (not so clever marketing IMO), but by the 1990s some examples were selling for about half that amount.

    Now the prices have crept up 

    I don’t care much for the gold embellishments except for the backstrap.

    You ever shot it?  It’s fun to just look at a nicely crafted handgun sometimes.

    Shane showed up at our fraternity house one Saturday afternoon while we were building for a party, convinced his girlfriend was inside for some reason.  Our pledge class was small in numbers (spring class - like 10 guys maybe?), but most of them were big ass dudes who lived at the gym and not afraid to scrap.  Obviously not the size of Dronett, but not your normal 170# frat rats.  Dronett is out on the sidewalk raising hell and the pledges are basically a wall between him and the house, telling him to gtfo, beating chests, etc.  Dronett swings at the closest one, misses him but connects w/ the next closest one's shoulder, and straight up dislocates it w/ one punch that wasn't even meant for that guy. 😲😲
    That turned into Dronett vs 8 guys w/ the 8 guys barely holding ground until Shane decided he'd had enough and decided to leave.  Our guys were thrilled w/ his decision.

    I totally believe this.  Those people from the Golden Triangle are a different breed.

    I have more than a few "Bill Brasky" type stories about my ex-cop and ex-loanshark cousin from around that part of Texas.  Hell, even the little guys are insane.  My cousin's friend was a smaller guy and his motto was, "I may not always win the fight, but they're gonna know I was there." LOL

    i caught up on the final 3 episodes last night and actually kind of enjoyed them.  definitely hoping they do something with raylan and boyd in the future.

    It’s a fine show when not compared to Justified.  It’s more like The Wire than Justified imo.  Also, surrounding his daughter with people that are professionals didn’t help her much.  I don’t think she was terrible, just mediocre, but compared to some of the heavy hitters in this show it wasn’t great.  It took too long for Raylan to kill anyone too.  The ending was a real cocktease too.
