  1. I don’t post much, but get the fuck out of here with Rock Bottom. Miami Cotton Bowl, they basically made a production of what constitutes Unsportsmanlike Behavior and Personal Fouls, and laughed while they were doing it. 66-3, 60 to whateverasswippings early MB, Coach Potato era, Maryland losses. Shit. 

     

    The kids will will be alright. We’ll get some OL in here and hopefully Arch and things will be ok.

  2. Born in Endicott, NY. IBM town. My dad started making trips to Austin in the 70s, they were investigating a relocation to this strange place far away. He’d always bring Longhorn gear back with him. A kid wearing a Bevo T shirt was pretty rare in upstate NY. I was bleeding burnt orange when I was 12 and we moved to Austin in 1980.

    Yeah, we won up there in 90, and lost at home, I think in 89. Then there was the Fiesta Bowl

    I went to that game, it began the Shock the Nation season. I had “where the hell is State college” written on the back of my company truck. Got hammered before and during the game. Visited with Tom Penders while my buddy threw up in the bed of my truck. Got pulled over by campus police after the game and made to do a sobriety test in front of dozens of jeering pissed off PSU fans passing by. Good times.

    Only thing that bugged me is the daughter heads off to drive cross country to start college by herself. Come on. The dad could’ve been in the fucking driver’s seat instead of waving good luck.

    Was it Berklee School of Music in MA? It’s a highly regarded music school, she was a vocalist in the wedding, and a much more manageable drive from PA. Not sure, maybe I missed something as well.

  5. Average NFL RB  career is slightly over 3 years. If you are a 4~5 star getting recruited by a Power 5, you are looking at your professional future. I think the math/analytics/whatever is more available to these kids and they are making decisions accordingly. It is what it is.

  6. My son played with a 4 star running back in high school in Houston, he committed to an SEC school in 2015 before his senior year. There was a noticeable dropoff in performance in his senior year, especially in a loss to a top 10 ranked school in the second round of the playoffs.

    With RBs tread life, it’s entirely possible that State U is telling all these guys to protect themselves senior year of HS. What do they have to gain? It’s the times we live in.

    The Allstate singing hood ornament is rage inducing.

    OMG “let’s make lots of money” from the fucking hood ornament. Maybe save a few bucks, probably don’t. That’s not making money, commercial/song makes me want to puke. Sorry if this got discussed on much earlier pages, but fuck that commercial.

    Well I didn’t take pics but the ribs came out fine on the new extender grates.

    Split the racks so they would fit on the smaller upper grate.

    It’s nice having a way to get under the plate setter quickly. With the new kick ash basket the charcoal seems to burn faster. Ran out of fuel mid cook.

    Interesting. I’ve done 2 smokes with the kick ash and found the same thing, out of fuel early. Like the utility of the KA but thoughts on why less efficient?

    And at Orange Tree, Tri Towers, Garden Gate, and at all the fraternity houses. Pretty much everywhere in West Campus. That happens a lot in college.

    Ahhh the Garbage Gate. You could stagger back there from Abel’s in 30 seconds. Good times. Is that still around?
