  1. Dudes pick off move is legit
  2. Texas and OSU the only Big 12 teams guaranteed to make regionals? Looks like OU, TCU, and Tech are all on the RPI bubble
  3. Just got back from an amazingly similar trip. Lahinch, Ballybunion, Waterville, Old Head, Tralee, and Dooks. Our Dublin airport experience was much smoother. However, be prepared for a Covid test 24 hours before you depart. DO NOT use the testing site at the airport. The line and wait times were impossibly long. Cliffs of Moher were amazing. We loved Killarney. Just go to pubs and talk with the locals. Take off your hat when you go in pubs. You stick out like a sore thumb as an American if you don't. Got to pour a pint of Guiness at the Nineteenth Pub in Lahinch. Watched a hurling game at J. Reidy's in Killarney with the locals. Strange sport that is kind of a cross between field hockey, lacrosse, and rugby. Drove through a bunch of Pikey's playing Irish Road Bowling on the way to Limerick. THAT was interesting. Locals mostly keep to themselves unless you make an effort to engage with them. If you do, they are some of the most kind and loving people on the planet. We had an amazing driver. Because of our tee times and ambitious itinerary, he was a godsend. Allowed us to decompress and enjoy the travel.
  4. Leave Tuesday for Lahinch, Ballybunion, Tralee, Old Head, Waterville, Dooks, and Enniscrone. May try and work in Adare Manor. Can’t wait.
  5. I’ve been on a heater on team total runs lately. Took a while for the book to catch up on the dead baseballs.
  6. The one on the bottom grabbed a whole Earl Campbell hot link out of my hand when I wasn't paying attention. Gone in a matter of seconds.
  7. Crawfish Cream Sauce: Ingredients: 1/2 cup onion 1/2 bell pepper 1/4 celery couple big dashes of Worcestershire sauce cup of heavy cream 12 ounces of crawfish tails clove of minced garlic 2 tsp of Cajun seasoning (Tony's or Slap Ya Mamma) 1 tsp of butter Handful of grated Parmesan favorite hot sauce to taste - I used Momofuku's chili garlic crunch oil. That shit is addicting. Black Pepper to taste Sauté onion, bell pepper, and celery with the Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and butter on medium high heat for a couple minutes until tender Add heavy cream, crawfish tails, seasonings and let it reduce a little bit. (maybe 2-3 minutes) Toss in the Parmesan and it will tighten up quite a bit. Taste and add hot sauce to your heat preference. I would top with parsley but I grabbed cilantro like an idiot. Its quick and easy.
  8. Blackened reverse sear filets, with a crawfish Cajun cream sauce. Over a Parmesan wild rice “risotto”.
  9. Sweet Shop in Snyder is pretty damn solid if you have to be in Snyder.
  10. I just can't fathom taking Walker from Georgia number 1. However, I'm not entirely sold on Hutchinson either. I think I might shoot for the moon with the left tackle from NC State or really look to trade down.
  11. I made my one big baseball bet on the Reds under 74.5. I can't wait to have to sweat it out after their 3-15 start.
  12. If a true sociopath walks the earth, I am convinced it is Bart Whitaker. Not to go cloak room, but if his name was Ja'Thomas Whitaker and the facts were the exact same, he would be in the grave right now.
  13. Flying to Dublin in May. Currently just in economy with the poors. I'm 6'5". Normal domestic flights, I am fine for the most part. My knees tend to hurt by the end. 8 hour flight from O'Hare to Dublin. There are several economy plus seats available. Is it worth the extra $139.00? I assume it is just for sheer comfort.
  14. I had heard they were booked until 2024 but didn’t think that could be right. I bet they work you in.
  15. We went in late February and got great weather. I don't know how many of the courses you are playing, but if you have to skip one, Old Mac, to me is the weakest. Some people love it. Play the par 3. We did the lighted up night putting at the punch bowl and it was really really cool.
  16. Lol. I did. Grandfather played basketball there. Dad and uncle played golf there. It was free. From where I’m from going to Oklahoma City, just the town, is noteworthy. Worked out fine in the end. 12 to one girl to guy ratio.
  17. I was talking to a family friend that played on tour for a long time. Played in several Masters, a ryder cup, etc.. Asked him what his first memory of what made Augusta National "different". Said he teed off on one on his very first time out. Was walking maybe 20 yards off the first tee and looked down and there was a maaaaybe 1" patch of clover. It was circled in white as ground under repair.
  18. I got recruited to play golf at some of the Ivys. Got accepted into Yale. Parents didn't want me that far away from home. Fast forward a couple years, and we are paired with Yale in a college golf tournament in Florida. We have to ride because the course is too hard to walk. Guy from Yale asks if I will drive the cart because he had to study. Spent 36 holes with him hitting a shot, getting back in the cart and studying World Religion. Hindsight, I should have gone and at least tried for a year, but I don't know how long I would have lasted.
  19. Sorry. Totally agree. Was thinking the museum. The National Memorial is stunning. They did a wonderful job on it.
  20. Neighborhood Jam is a great breakfast spot. Waffle Champion is good and close to the others you have mentioned. Ludivine is great. Gray Sweater is another option. The chef there just got a James Beard nomination, I think. The OKC Dodgers are in town and the ballpark is really nice and close. Skydance is great. Prairie is great. Like the other guy said, Stone Cloud is great. Bombing Memorial is right there and incredible but not for the little kids. Sidecar is a cool cocktail bar by Skydance and Prairie that makes good craft cocktails. Jimmy B's on Broadway is in an old Mercedes dealership that has a great happy hour and cocktail/beer menu. The First Americans Museum is really cool.
  21. Well, he's going to make the cut if he can continue to walk. The longer he holds up, the more interesting it will get.
  22. Just feels like Justin Thomas' time to win another major.
  23. Cody Canada playing REK’s Shades of Gray is surprisingly awesome. It’s on the Undone: A Musicfest Tribute.
  24. I love, love, love Murray State -2.5 today. Sprinkled some on Memphis, Arkansas, and Richmond
