  1. AJ is the dude.
  2. 21F on 4473 We routinely stopped sales to the smokers. Drugs and guns don’t mix.
  3. I had a great convo with Dan Neil one day and he told me about playing in the NFL. He was small and I couldn’t figure out how he had those rings on his fingers as a starter. Granted, he had lost a lot of weight after retirement. Anyway, he told me that (paraphrasing) a game has 60 snaps on offense: 1. half don’t go his way so he just has to “get in the way” of his man 2. Some other portion he has help blocking his guy 3. Some other portion he just has to hold his block for a quick out or slant or whatever 4. 10 or so plays: he had to man up, dominate, drive his guy back, whatever. I always thought that was interesting. Maybe applies here in some capacity - I don’t know.
  4. What happened to Ldogg53?
  5. I thought the gas were supposed to root for their conference mates? It’s a brotherhood or something. Huh. I wonder what changed? Or, was it - like we knew deep in our loins - them celebrating others success as their own? Bama won the CFP! We did it! We’re winners!
  6. Dave Allen. Solid guy, keeps it simple. He helps some ex UT players as well. He helped me meet Dan Neil so we could get his kid something. He’s in North Austin.
  7. I wonder where ol’ Jimbo can go? Obviously somewhere east or southeast - he isn’t going west. ACC or SEC, possibly Big 10. Who has a coach o. The hot seat that would be interested in the Jimbo/Karen pairing? Kentucky if they shit the bed this year? Florida?
  8. Having fun = possible heisman contender Wild wacky stuff
  9. Everyone relax. We’re about to win the national championship. Happy thoughts.
  10. Man Ive heard some stuff I really like that are from lesser known brands. I think a few things are in play: 1. Newish companies innovating 2. Production costs decreasing due to new tech or materials 3. Realization that spend for legacy brands was heavy on the name alone Zildjian Sabian and Paiste were the gold standard for years. They make great stuff and charge great prices. Some of the newer brands sound just as good but charge far less, depending on series of course. Then, what do your ears like? That Instanbul stuff sounds great for the price point. I mean studio engineers probably want specific weights and things but the crowd at continental club won’t be able to tell a 200g ride from a 222g ride. I like the Paiste stuff but I have a ton of it too. If I was buying new gear I’d look at all the brands - fuck the name.
  11. Pm me your cell so I can text you some pics. Jimmy Jazz will vouch for me.
  12. He probably fits from a specialty perspective and they’re willing to pay the price for HIS level of talent at THAT specific task. There is also value in keeping him away from OU. I love the way the defensive side of the ball has been architected - both from a scheme perspective and personnel perspective. I also don’t know shit about fuck.
