  1. It was Dallas-based I Can’t Believe It’s Yogurt. They had it first, so they sued This Can’t Be Yogurt over the name. The latter became The Country’’s Best Yogurt, or TCBY. I wrote the insurance for TCBY when they were still headquartered in Little Rock. They eventually grew to over 1,700 locations, but now they have a fraction of that number. I’m not sure if I Can’t Believe It’s Yogurt even exists now. 

    There was a I Can’t Believe It’s Yogurt location off The Drag, not far from GM Steakhouse, circa 1981.  My now wife made a weekly pilgrimage back then.

    braunschweiger?

    a.k.a. Leberwurst (liverwurst).  It was common in the Dakotas when I was a kid.  We laughed at the city folks who marveled that the Indians (feather) "used every part of the buffalo."

     

    I know, they're bison.  And yes, the smart Germans ended up in Texas.

    Fuck that noise. If your kid is really serious about attending Texas, tell them to bust their ass in juco/cc for one year and transfer in. That's how I did it and I'm one of the rare people to have not graduated from hs (GED). Shit is possible if you want it bad enough. 

    How about busting ass at aggy and transferring to Texas? If he’s really Longhorn material, he won’t be brainwashed, especially if he has a plan.

    Yeah it takes a "real" man to shoot an animal he has fed all year without threat.

    Should give the deer guns to make it more of a sport.

    I’ve tried, but they have trouble shouldering the gun, and a hoof won’t fit through the trigger guard. Their aim also sucks.

    And my post said nothing about not wanting him to come here or that he sucks. If he goes to OSU or aggy or OU or New Mexico State, basically anywhere but UT, then I have no reason to want to see him succeed in football. If they aren't a Horn, then I hope they suck at football, get their degree, and go on to be a pro in something other than football. If he has a change of heart and comes here then I hope he is a great player and ultimately makes millions in the NFL.

    I wasn't commenting on your post as much as the comments he allegedly made on why he didn't want to go to Texas when Texas never recruited him.  On one hand, I don't wish him success, but on the other hand, I realize he's probably 17 and a dipshit.

    Wilson should have shut his pie hole and I hope the guy sucks at football at OSU.

    This is related to recruiting because we are in the transition where Herman is paying the price for putting culture install over winning football games. I hope that the weird personnel groupings and usage were more about putting guys with cultural buy-in on the field over more talented guys who needed to learn a lesson. That shouldn't be needed this season and hopefully we see the coaches utilizing elite talent rather than rewarding the try-hards to make a point. We should win more games and look more polished with our elite guys getting the bulk of the snaps. It is still likely going to take another season to wash the stink of the last 8 years off the program, though I would love to see Herman pull a Saban or Stoops in Year 2.

    Why is he even commenting on why he didn’t want to go to Texas?  He didn’t even list Texas as a school that was recruiting him. 

    OTOH, I didn’t want the headache of being President, so I declined the nomination. I kinda see his point.

    I don't have an anti-B1G slant... And this is to encompass all things of the B1G, as posted upthread about the top games in conference this fall...

    Welp, just pointing out that demographics could be effected long term, but hopefully there is a rectification on the issue of urban flight in the region...

    acho doesn't do pxp or cc for one, and he's still infinitely better than Lowell at the job that he does do.

    If his job is to irritate, then I concur.
