  1. It's All Good when it's on is better than Opie's. When it's not it's still good, but Opie's is better. And Opie's has butter beans on weekends which makes it better on weekends. Schmidt Family BBQ is mediocre at best. My wife likes their chicken, but the brisket is consistently dry. I've never tried RO's. Much like Grandpa's Tacos at Bee Creek, it never appears to be open. From Spicewood, it's also only another 30 minutes or so to Coopers in Llano, which to me is still one of the best places on earth for bbq. Edited to add Willie's Burgers next to my storage unit. All I've ever had are breakfast tacos, but Willie is a cool old dude. And it's been open forever so I suspect the bbq is okay if not better.
  2. El Rancho in Burnet. Used to be Tamale King in Buchanan Dam, but it recently closed
  3. Proof and Cooper was mediocre in my one experience too. Continue down the road a bit for Family Business Beer Company if it's a nice day though. Great wrap around porch to sit and rock and drink an IPA or three. There's also a food truck, but it was closed the day we were there. Is Verde's any good? Always seem to be cars there. Rosie's needs to be on the list, even if just for nachos. It's All Good BBQ is above average. And Angel's Icehouse is always a good time. Oh, and Poodie's. Definitely not too snooty.
  4. I was lucky enough to get two tickets for tomorrow from a client, including a hospitality tent seat. Parking is at Barton Creek Mall, then shuttle. Anyone know much time should I give myself to get to the grounds from the mall parking lot? Does the shuttle run every 15 minutes or so?

    Gyros

    Halal Bros on the Drag is my current favorite (not Halal Guys; it closed). Little Greek in Lakeway if you’re out that way.
  6. Taking my son to Vegas for his 21st for the USA Rugby Sevens tournament. My game of choice is craps, and he wants me to teach him. So I'm looking for $5 minimum tables at most. Cromwell? Anywhere else on the strip? Four Queen still have $5 tables?

    W Anderson Lane

    Yes! Everyone listen to Jack Straw and stop going there.

    Burgers

    Fair enough. I haven’t tried either so maybe they’re worth the price (but I doubt it). Side note, I remember arguing with you whether Spanish Bombs was a better song than your name on Austin360

    Burgers

    I’m gonna suggest that you not go to Joann’s Fine Foods if a $13 burger troubles you.
  11. Westbrook leads 25-10 at half
  12. Westbrook goes 66 yards on one play for the TD. Now lead 22-7 and that's with two turnovers as well. Westlake better get their offense going of this game is over.
  13. Westbrook answers immediately. McGrew from 69 yards. 15-7 Westbrook over Westlake.
  14. Westlake's Baker for a TD
  15. Westbrook returns a fumble recovery for a 60+ yard TD
  16. anyone know if Dylin Duhon for Westbrook is related to Brent Duhon of the Port Arthur Connection?
  17. TD saving OSKIE by Drew Webster of Westlake. Westlake starting second series from their 20. 0-0.
  18. Rare guilty pleasure over the past few years, but the last Taco Bueno in Austin at Slaughter and Mopac apparently closed down.
  19. Citation? My understanding is that under the ACA annual and lifetime limits are prohibited. Since you seem to know, what are the limits on coverage for catastrophic cases (whatever that means)?
  20. Statement from Texas Football senior DL Breckyn Hager:“I consider sportsmanship to be an essential part of the game I so truly love. I spoke with our athletics director Chris Del Conte and Coach Herman about what I said after Saturday’s game and understand why it reflected poorly on me and my team. I had no ill intentions when I made my comments about Oklahoma, which included a phrase that’s used by fans, but I have to realize that it’s different coming from me. My thought process was that it would put a fun and light-hearted charge into the greatest rivalry in college football that my family has been involved in playing in for many years, but I can see now that was not the way to do it. I have the utmost respect for the University of Oklahoma and their football program and know a number of players on their team, and I want to apologize to them. I want to represent myself, my family, my football program, my University, and the Big 12 Conference in the best possible way. I’m truly sorry for the comments I made, will learn from this, and will keep working to improve my ability to think about the ramifications of what I say before I say it.”
  21. Johnny "on the lam" Jones?
  22. If it turns out they're playing each other, OU and Texas should petition the Big 12 to have the Big 12 CCG playyed at Fair Park at 2:30 on December 1

    Fried Chicken

    For the basic stuff Bush's is hard to beat. There's one down around Slaughter and Brodie. Top Notch also fits the bill for basic. Max's Wine Dive had great fried chicken a few years back, but I haven't eaten there since I quit working in that part of town.

    Jewboy - best in town. Top Notch for old style charcoal grilled. Parkside
