  1. Yeah, when they were walking in the street leaving karaoke bar she was fuming while Logan was rambling about homeless people and whatever. But fuck her. Her bangs are ridiculous. Or for surly….. bangs wnb
  2. It’s weird how each kid has strengths and weaknesses that kinda complement the others which is why altogether they are potentially formidable but any on their own are disasters. As an example, Roman has the most emotional intelligence by far and reads situations much better than the other two. But he’s weak and afraid of conflict so he can be browbeaten by whoever is trying to win him over at any point in time. Even when he may be right.
  3. I got the sense that they may have tweaked the finale to be the final episode in case Renner can't come back.
  4. I presume Logan needed the Gojo money to buy Pierce as well. I doubt stockholders are going to let him buy Pierce when this deal falls through, but who knows? Obviously, Mattson is going to go rogue in one way or another. "I love you. But you're not serious people." Logan's worldview on his kids in 8 words.
  5. I am trying to pinpoint why the Mattson call flipped Kendall. Saw the chance to screw his dad and willing to call Mattson’s bluff? And/or saw it as weakness concern from Mattson? In any event, great episode.
  6. I hate UCONN because they lucked into beating the best Duke team ever in ‘99 because K thought Trajan Langdon was his best player for some reason, and then got handed the final four semi by the refs in 2004 before crushing a GaTech team that was the equivalent of Miami or SDSU this year in the final. Then they have two amazing low seed runs led by perfect college guards, the one in 2011 being the worst final ever witnessed between them and Butler. All that said, if they win Monday, that’s 5 titles in less than 25 years. It can’t be ignored no matter how much of a dick Jim Calhoun is/was (is he dead yet?).
  7. I am booking a trip to Cabo for summer to an all inclusive. Any thoughts on Le Blanc vs Grand Velas? Wife (no pics) is celiac and both appear to nail that, which is great.
  8. When is someone going to lose it? Can you be held in contempt of congress for saying "you fucking idiot" on a hot mic?
  9. Would be stunned to see Mitchell return. Seems like someone will grab him in first round even if he stashed in G League next year.
  10. Any Caleb Love interest?
  11. The take that this isn’t the perfect or ideal hire, but it’s the right hire, is the right take. It’s not that hard. There isn’t a better available candidate out there whose advantage over RT exceeds all of the headaches of going through that process and the negative repercussions of not hiring RT. I felt differently 3 weeks ago. But this is how I feel now. NIL and NBA pipeline respect will supplement some of the deficiencies Terry may have had at FSU or UTEP. He has shown himself to be a good system coach this year. Our offense looked better than it has in over a decade. He has had his ups and downs in game but, fuck, I am a Duke fan and Coach K had his ups and downs “in game” since 1999. He is going to have to hit the portal hard this year. I think we are an attractive option for a lot of kids. Let’s ride.

    Fricking gut punch from city of Austin shutting Mopac down to one lane on way home. Poor Redes. He’s never going to score for us, is he?
  14. Correct. That monster showing against Pedo St is throwing people off I think, particularly on the national scene.
  15. Jacquez is Jawesome
  16. Wild what happens when they call fouls.
  17. Guinness looking at it for longest goal ever.

  20. Another one……. In our remodel we replaced all of our gas appliances with electric and contractor capped off gas line to kitchen….. fine. One evening after we took possession of house we had strong gas odor that wouldn’t go away. Wife called 311 and AFD followed by Texas Gas Company came out. Long story - there was gas detected but no leak after pressure testing, but…... Texas Gas came and asked us where the gas was capped off in kitchen. Shrug from me, so we called contractor. He said capped off behind new cabinetry, good night. Texas Gas said they can’t access it and until they can see it and confirm it’s properly capped or disconnected, our gas is turned off. We scramble another solution with contractor’s plumber next day to cut off gas line from a point outside, so kitchen is completely disconnected. This is in lieu of busting open our brand new cabinets so Texas Gas can see the capped line. But now our kitchen is completely disconnected. Contractor wants me to pay for that work to disconnect the pipe. My view is that they covered up access to confirm it was capped and it’s on them to fix so that I can have gas and heat my house again. Thoughts? I am pretty pissed because now our kitchen is disconnected from the gas completely so it’s a pain for future owners if they want gas appliances. Contractor maintains they didn’t have to provide accessibility to the capped off pipe and they just did me a favor to help get gas back on.

    We are wasting two DPs. We need to give Rigoni the Pochettino treatment next window and go get the best CDM from Europe looking to make the move to US. Not sure how to fix Ring being a DP. That was always a mistake regardless of how important he has been. Does Teen Wolff have a national team tourney this summer to up his transfer value so we have some money to spend? It’s still early and I see this team as middle of pack low playoff seed at this point. But we have to bury Zardes on the bench as nothing but a high energy/ last 15 minutes guy in the summer heat, and get Urruti back in there with Fagundez and Driussi.
  22. If Duke can get by a not full strength TN today, things are opening up for them. They should beat FAU/FDU and if they don’t, shame on them. The top half of that bracket was not ideal for Duke as Purdue and Tennessee aren’t great matchups for them. KSU, Marquette and MSU are all pretty good matchups, though. I like one of Furman or Princeton to win today and will be betting money lines on both. I also think there is good value in the Maryland money line at +330 if Miller truly isn’t 100%. One of the 1s will fall and for some reason I don’t think it will be Houston.

    And Tyler Adams isn’t even on it.
  24. No shit. I was riding First Time lift in PC with my 5 year old today multiple times and his ass is at edge of seat leaning on bar watching the slope style course skiers and I just picture him slipping right through under the bar.
  25. Wrapping up spring break in Park City. First time I’ve skied in 24 years and first time for my kids (wife passed on skiing due to recent surgery). This place has killed it. We splurged on an AirBnb just up the stairs from 501 and Main on Woodside and brought our nanny for the 5 and 9 year old. First day of ski school was a clusterfuck but we figured it out. Have gotten to ski with both of my kids the last 2 days and it’s awesome. And it is like riding a bike (although don’t tell that to you quads and knees). I hit the peloton and did squats and lunges 8 weeks ahead of the trip and it still didn’t prepare me fully, but better than nothing. Was doing blues again after a day and got some powder in Wednesday. Just have to know I’m not 21 anymore and enjoy it. Can’t wait to get back in the annual (or more) groove. And if you have celiacs in the family like I do, the restaurants here are on point. Just make reservations. Like weeks in advance. we will be back.
