  1. Maybe a little racist?
  2. Sometimes you open a thread with very low entertainment expectations and anticipate a lot of shit posting. I will always appreciate when that exact thing happens, but its SO bad it makes me laugh. So here's to you Mr. NocluewtfImtalkingabout, aka @lazygringo, thanks and keep on keeping on.
  3. I won't repost stats I already have too many times, but the net is they really point out 4 excellent teams, then everyone else. The also rans tend to have a pretty big issue on D or offense and most of them are defensive issues. Then are a few that have inconsistent QB. Miami and Aggie have QB and D issues. However, there even the 4 "excellent" teams outside of Indiana have show some weaknesses (Georgia for example). So I get where your take comes from but I see it less as top 10 parity and more and lack of domination or schedule weaknesses by the "excellent" 4 which can create a false perception of broader parity.
  4. Sigh.. fine, but I've a very high level of confidence this ain't that year.
  5. Klatt is pretty fucking far from a click baiter. He's among the best, if not the best in his takes. You might not like them, but they are solid. He's the best out there right now.
  6. If the G5 remain in and take the 12 seed, they will never win it. Ever. No G5 is winning the CFP. In fact, no only will the 2 G5 in this year lose badly in the first round, the TV numbers are going to be massive losers too. That OSU was seeded 8 last year is a much bigger slam on the stupid committee process than it is a support of Cinderella stories in college football.
  7. I personally prefer the College World Series to NCAA Basketball Tournament. If the idiots ever fix the seeding of the CFP, it will probably take the #1 spot for me with Basketball pulling in 3rd.
  8. Are you unfamiliar with the work of Jerrah Jones, Jimmy Haslam, Michael Bidwell or Woody Johnson? To name a few? Tldr: Probably
  9. I've said it before but native New Mexicans are a uniquely peculiar kind of crazy. I had one family member by "marriage" that was bat shit and have know a few in my life. Think of that one odd ball in some group your in that everyone just shakes their head at, or the distant family member which causes everyone eye brows to raise when they hear they're comming to an event. That's pretty much the entire state, particularly the poorer part.
  10. We know what was reported, we know the end effect. Point of fact, we do not know why she turned whistle blower. We can logically speculate, but not know. Something went really sideways, but the timing, escalation and what's being said now is A story, we may or may not know THE story.
  11. Damn you!!! Revealing all my secret locations. But yeah Cumberland House is my go to, but parking is goofy.
  12. Be sure to make a reservation!
  13. This, for Hilton, I called because my preferred place wasn't available and I wanted to see if there was a wait list. Booking for Hilton's downtown opens 6 months prior. So if Marriott is the same it will be week of April 13th. You're welcome.
  14. Mea Culpa to all, I did not recognize that Big Red was such serious bidness.
  15. You ever watched someone stab themselves to death with a butter knife? It's no laughing matter. It's slow and really, really annoying. Don't mock what you don't understand!
  16. I know we're largely mocking and having fun. I'm in no way defending his behavior, quite the opposite. That said, it is sad in the great scope of humanity. For the victim, for others this directly effects and I don't feel sorry for someone doing what he did being held accountable, but it is, nevertheless sad. He may be evil, but based on what little I know he just sounds more like a really fucked up human.
  17. You break into my house and make a sammich you're getting shot. My deli meats are the spendy ass ones, and I take my meats and cheeses seriously. Do not fuck with charcuterie!
  18. A) A lot of the hotels haven't opened yet. (Dunno about AirBnBs/VRBO) B) Book hotels and flights early arrive early on Friday. I40 becomes an ABSOLUTE mess on Friday and Sunday. I mean, parking lot mess.
  19. I think Surly noobs to Knoxville will be really suprised at the quality and quantity of restaurants and hotels. I'm not revealing my go tos cause greed is good.
  20. Dallas and Knoxville are on the plate for next year.
