  1. I am happy with it as with the two bye weeks. The back to back of OU and Georgia is brutal but depending on how we and OU fair in the SEC we will welcome a familiar opponent probably in the thick of the schedule 

    Yes I was just texting mdmost the same thing: feels like a balanced “easier game, harder game, easier game, etc…” balance of opponents other than that OU-Georgia back to back

  2. The airport itself is nice and getting nicer with a lot of upgrades prior to the Olympics.  But traffic absolutely blows.  Picked up my son the day before Thanksgiving and it was a disaster.

    The traffic is the reason I avoid LAX like the plague. I recently opted for Burbank in lieu of LAX, and which Burbank reminds me (for the Dallas folks) of Love Field before they did the previous upgrades. That is incredibly small and basic but also incredibly convenient.
  3. Man he was SO great in everything he was in. In addition to all his main starring roles such as Homicide: Life on the Street (mdmost and I, in fact, would go back and rewind/rewatch various scenes of his when we lived in Rio Nueces there right off campus in the mid-90s) as well as Brooklyn Nine-Nine, think about how great he was whenever he had even a “tiny” role in a film or show including (without limitation):

    -Glory

    -The Tuskegee Airmen (really good in this!)

    -Primal Fear

    -The Mist

    RIP

    61 is way, Way, WAY too young!

  4. RIP Brutal Beerworks

    I happened to go their grand opening on Father’s Day 2019 and then once more briefly in 2021 when going to nearby Turning Point Brewing but otherwise haven’t had/seen their beers anywhere (other than at the taproom).

    I’m in Dallas proper and they are (where) located in Richardson Hills. Unfortunately, I wonder if there is some lesson in there for other breweries who are further out from their major cities about how viable it is to operate in a smaller town/outskirts when you don’t otherwise distribute anywhere.

    RIP and it does suck to think about these breweries who tried, but didn’t make it.

  5. I was also a big Diff’rent Strokes fan but can appreciate others might have a different opinion especially as I’ve always thought that the world don't move to the beat of just one drum, what might be right for you, may not be right for some.

  6. Some phrases you will hear a lot in coming months:
    "Clear the deck"
    "Total Rebuild"
    "down to the studs"
    "only those who want to be here"
    "Cultural rebuild"
    "Mercenaries"
    "Jimbo destroyed the locker-room culture"
    "Roster mismanagement"
    "get his own players"
    "laying the foundation"

    I like the way you think. Maybe someone generates aggy bingo cards to give us some fun when the dreaded offseason hits:
