  1. Throwing out one that hasn't been mentioned -- I recall really liking the series finale of Family Ties.  I think the show had been petering out, but the last episode was great, and Meredith Baxter Birney and Michael J. Fox had really good chemistry as a mother and oldest child having difficulty saying good bye as Alex was headed to New York.  And I think Michael J. Fox as Alex P. Keaton was one of the best sitcom characters of the 1980s.

  2. Setting talent and performance aside -- and on that point I disagree that Healthy Ash is better than Sam -- Ash had nowhere near the leadership that Sam has.  I get the sense that a lot of Sam's teammates will run through a brick wall for him.  Ash was a nice guy and probably a really good teammate, but didn't provide the inspiration and motivation that you need from the QB position.  Yeah, his performance in Stillwater in 2012 was nails, but it was not the norm for him.

  3. Love Elton John, but for some reason this movie looks just meh. Maybe after Bohemian Rhapsody I’m getting worried about a wave of old/dead rock star biopics. Who’s next. John Lennon? Mick Jagger? Gordon Lightfoot?

    LSU is a mortal enemy for UT at this point. We are competing with these cheating, stupid motherfuckers for every recruit we want - yard, by hard fucking yard. ATM opened the door for the SEC to come into Texas and take an elephant-sized dump on the concept of honorable recruiting within the state. LSU is leading the pack through the gate, and then these dumb fuckfaces can't even do us the solid of beating ATM to salve the wounds.

    They are buying players while simultaneously playing dirty with recruits in Louisiana that they don't want, but they also don't want us to have. They fucking recruited Mike Williams back to campus once we realized we had a player and then had the brazen audacity to enroll as a walk-on paying his own way into their school. 

    In short, we're at the equivalent of college football war here, and you rubes are equivocating about these mouthbreathers and touting them as happy go-lucky friends of yours that mean well. Aw shucks, I love those dumb bastards. Right.

    I despise LSU and everything it represents. They produce malformed thinkers into the business world, who they inevitably dump on my doorstep in Houston because New Orleans and Baton Rouge are already filled to the brim with restaurant managers and HR generalists with LSU degrees. They value cheating and utter dishonesty as solid character traits. Half of them struggle to speak intelligible English. They have a worldview tucked happily within a 50 mile radius of their swamp-assed back porches. Corruption is a badge of honor for these buffoons.

    The only redeeming qualities these people possess as a collective are an outstanding legacy with food and a bunch of moderately attractive women with low moral fiber. Fuck right off with the "they're my second favorite team" sentiment. Take that shit to tigerdroppings. We don't want to hear it. If LSU is playing ISIS, I'm donning all black and a fundamentalist attitude for four quarters until the jihad against these dipshits is complete. 

    Are you prepared to say that LSU gargles balls?

    Pics of said Norwegian?

    She asked Brisket to stay
    And she told him to sit anywhere
    So he looked around
    And he noticed there wasn't a chair
    He sat on a rug biding my time
    drinking her wine
    They talked until two and then she said
    "It's time for bed"
