  1. Lets not forget to consider the makeup of "American Elites" in this...
  2. For fuck's sake, did you take multi-quote/schizophrenic posting lessons from Spider2yBanana? Jesus Christ. We're all thrilled with your ability to answer your own question with google and be sure to chronicle your entire stream of thought on surly, I'm sure everyone was waiting with baited breath.
  3. And I thought you knew Silas "Crank" Bolden. Shocked face. Forget it, Jake, it's Satyanash.
  4. Good thing that play wasn’t a punt return. He’d have grabbed it and ran backwards out of the endzone in his endless quest just to feel alive.
  5. Not having to watch Silas Bolden test my blood pressure 4-5 times a game is one of the things I'm most looking forward to this season. When that motherfucker is completely done with football we're going to we're going to find out he's moved onto high wiring between sky scrapers and wrestling alligators just for shits and grins.
  6. Did you just say Bo Davis was an amazing recruiter? Huh? I'm not sure I agree with your detective work there, Lou. Is this sarcasm I'm failing to register? Bo Davis was a lazy motherfucking recruiter and and relied on his ability to coach up shit. Meanwhile, Baker got more out of guys like Broughton and Collins than Davis ever did...hell I was impressed by Bill Norton in limited time.
  7. Yeah, it's a weird kind of wager. Sure, passing a golden hat would suck balls and result in a ton of tearing, I imagine, but you get a big ass piece of gold and you get to set BO&W on fire. I'd rather shit a golden hat and/or set BO&W on fire than, I dunno, have to have dinner with a cadre or regular football board posters.
  8. I took my family to that Scripps lookout point in June for the view and watch the paragliders, but the main fucking viewing area was shut down because there'd been a rock slide recently. That was a big bummer. I'm not sure it's going to re-open at any point.
  9. I'm surprised, given the names they put out there returning punts, you didn't see Aaron Butler in there. Isn't that guy's whole thing supposed to be he's fast? I mean, I guess Niblett is fast too, but shit, that guy can't even break a 3 deep with Moore and Niblett being return guys? He has to be the #1 portal candidate on the entire roster by a mile.
  10. I think CB is also my biggest question mark. Manny literally regressed as the year went onward, and started getting picked on by opposing teams. Successfully. Now we have a brand new corner, and no one is replacing Barron, at least not next year, and certainly not at the beginning of the year. That motherfucker blew up blocks in the screen game to make TFL and locked down his guy, pretty much all the time. CB is a concern, and the secondary in general as Barron allowed are safeties to do a lot more shit. After that, it's OL, just because of all the changes there, even if I have some cautious hope. I have zero concerns about WR, I'm more concerned about CTJ's weak heart if Livingstone plays tons of snaps and sucks, or worse plays tons of snaps and excels.
  11. Connor was a frustrating guy to watch. We knew he was smart, and he was pretty good at pass protection, but he couldn't drive guys off the line, and invariably 1-2 times a game we'd all end up yelling at him to fucking pick up someone downfield as they blew past him to make a tackle on pulls and whatnot. I'm hoping there will be net improvement in someone who can really make space at the point of attack to open up holes. Much of our running game last year was Wisner's vision and knack for making something out of nothing. I bet the Cardinals drafted him because he tested incredibly and crushed the interview portion. He's absolutely one of those guys I've referenced in other posts that when he got picked we all went "Huh" and scratched out heads. Happy for the guy, and happy he helped us into double digit draft picks again. We're getting to the point where you're going to have to stop criticizing my spelling and posting behavior. You have a head injury this week or something?
  12. I assume that additional sponsorship has showed up things financially? I can think of worst things than just pivoting to Burnt Ends for the name if Surly isn't going to be friendly enough.
  13. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/live-blog/rcna221881 Looks like it fizzled. Hawaii was downgraded to an advisory and folks were told they could return home. Cali got waves and less than a foot in most places so far. all the cams linked on page one show business as usual. Thankfully.
  14. Don’t lie. That’s you sporting that wicked cross-body for the world to see, letting your freak man-purse fly.
  15. Yes. Regardless of any weather events, Katy should be evacuated. Permanently.
  16. Are you fucking nuts? The Hangover was a fucking great original comedy. Step Brothers. Wedding Crashers. Napoleon Dynamite. Tropic Thunder. They're all supremely quotable movies. And that's just rolling off the top of my head. Fucking grandpa indeed. You sorta of self-identified but you still don't seem to grasp it...you're every other old person whining about how much better things were back in your hay day.
  17. The freshman All-American DT from Syracuse wasn't recruited just for depth, eh?
  18. I'm about the same. I've bought Roku and Disney individually over the years and they're both down materially from when I bought them. I bought a fuck ton of Berkshire Hathaway this year, seeing has they were just hoarding cash. Then Buffett announced his retirement about 4 or 6 weeks after that. I probably won't buy any UTLY so maybe my abstaining will counteract your buying curse.
  19. If I'm not mistaken, he underwent one or two gastric bypass procedures or sleeves, and I thought I heard that one of them went badly and he had a long recovery.
  20. They love to bring up Jamaal Charles. But the interview where he could barely speak was coming out of HS. Charles is a shy guy, and doesn’t like to talk. He was diagnosed as having learning disabilities as a kid. But has anyone heard him in the past 15 years? It’s night and day. That guy has really overcome a lot of struggles, before and after football. He’s a hero story and they laugh and point fingers. Fucking just the dumbest fucking cruel idiots.
  21. Add me to the list of people who think Rats of Nimh and Dark Crystal can get all the way fucked.
  22. That would have been Octopus’s Garden.
  23. I didn't know the guy who founded Pancho was a UT grad. Badass. I'm not much of an outdoorsman, but I have their burnt orange pearl snap and that thing is great.
  24. First off, Merlot is absolutely fucking trash. So is Chardonnay. Second, who the FUCK says Octopuses? It's fucking octopi. Anyone saying Octopuses should be corrected and violently mocked.
  25. I know man. I was teasing you. 212 is skeletors charity I think. I think it’s a Sandusky thing.
