  1. Sounds excellent. Might have to try that tonight. Even better. Or poblanos.
  2. Fuck if I know. It was just the first generic box hinterlands hotel chain I thought of.
  3. I started that semester as well and I don't recall registering in person but I guess it's possible.
  4. I'm hearing it now on the stream. Jub does a pretty good impression.
  5. Is this your pic? I'm not sure what I would do if I found myself at some sad Comfort Inn bar with this jagalope. Pretty sure I might wind up talking to the local police at some point.
  6. Until the Saudis or Putin of Xi step in to save his ass and effectively own the POTUS ... This cocksmoker needs to be beaten this November. Not until then will our national nightmare be over.
  7. Aaron started in community college and didn’t graduate from Berkeley.
  8. He didn't deny Trump the opportunity to speak as was pointed out above. He was told he could speak if he stuck to the facts of this particular case and didn't veer off into a campaign stump speech or into territory that has nothing to do with his civil fraud case. Either he or his attorneys wouldn't agree to those terms and Engoron extended the deadline to respond multiple times before saying he wouldn't allow him to speak. He relented today and then apparently shut it down when Trump started doing exactly what we all thought he would do.
  9. Ain't that the truth. Every single one of his top coaches are getting a raise out of this and one of them is going to be the next Bama coach.
  10. I read the article quickly. College GameDay won Best Emmy as a show quite a few years and apparently they wouldn't give the on-air talent their own statues or recognition (or something) if a show was recognized. (I guess anchors and such were competing in individual categories -- much like Best Picture/Best Actor/Best Actress as the Oscars.) The off-camera folks, however, got them so they created additional fictional names so they'd have "extra" Emmy trophies that they could re-engrave and give to the on-air talent. Do I have that about right? Seems like a silly "scandal."
  11. Lance Leipold would be a better choice than Klieman if you want to go that route.
  12. Of course Bama didn't call McGuire to inquire about an interview. I would totally believe that McGuire gathered his captains together to tell them this bullshit story that they contacted him and he told them to kick rocks. This thought actually occurred to me. Yep. Margot Robbie reached out to offer a "no strings" blow job and I had to tell her I'm happily married and would have to pass. I've never spent a day in Seattle in my life and I know Houston's weather is worse.
  13. SEC schools are getting a TON of Texas HS kids that can no longer get into UT. This. This too. That's usually how these things go. You almost never see a top five caliber coach hop to another program but this isn't just any program and it's basically a turn-key deal. Jim Harbaugh. Successful NFL HC's don't take college jobs hardly at all. It takes a situation like that to make it happen. I could see it. Lanning has said no. That could start a run of high-profile no's from guys like DeBoer. I do believe those of you saying Norvell would probably take the job if offered and that wouldn't be the worst thing to happen to Bama. Ray Perkins isn't walking through that door after all.
  14. My wife got mad at me last night when I said she should be hoping that Bama takes the Dabo headache off Clemson's hands.
  15. I thought it was pretty widely accepted that Sark was Saban's personal choice to succeed him when he retired but Texas came calling and Sark had no idea when Saban was going to hang up his whistle. Saban is quitting just as the Bama job -- and college coaching in general -- has gotten much more demanding with NIL and the portal. These are things that COULD detract from Bama's run of dominance in the last 15 years. Bama is no longer one of a few schools openly paying players -- nearly everybody does it now -- and there isn't the wealth in Bama that you'll find in other areas of the county with traditional football powers. I think Saban sees the writing on the wall and decided to get out before he winds up like Belichick.
  16. And that cooler isn't even a YETI
  17. Shit, I forgot that was his deal that people lost some money on. Assume we're talking about the same guy. He was extremely nice to me when I met him at Fair Park.
  18. Yeah, that was it. Pretty sure this is also accurate that he's moved to NM. I actually met Champ at our charity BBQ cookoff in Dallas last year. Since he is a "pro" he wasn't competing. He was cooking with @luke duke and serving samples to our attendees. Good guy.
  19. Think it was somebody who cooked with John somewhere. I won’t mention him by name here — can’t remember his handle — but he’s the why who opened the restaurant in Galveston and then also was cooking Q in Houston after that.

    It was pretty good. The two starters we got (arancini and the whipped ricotta with grilled zucchini) were outstanding, my wife loved the salad (I enjoyed it but the dressing wasn’t my favorite) and she got the butternut squash ravioli in sage butter sauce. That was excellent. I was not overly happy with my bolognese tagliatelle. The server talked me out of the special that was clams with linguine in a butter sauce. Wish I’d gotten the special. The almond flour cake dessert was good as well. I did have two of the best Negronis that I’ve ever had anywhere. Fun spot. I’d like to go back with another couple to try more stuff.
