  1. I'm going to smoke beef cheeks (for tacos) for the first time on my Big Green Egg. Might get something else to keep them company on the smoker. I'm also making a whole bunch of taco meat so people can build-their-own tacos or bowls. (Under orders to dial back my game-day cooking obligations for some reason.)

    Well yeah, they always have one more home game than UT because all of their cupcake patsies are home games.  The last attendance figures I've seen are for 2018 and on a per game average aggy attendance was 99,844 and UT was 97,713.  However, Kroger stadium had a capacity of 110,633 while DKR had a capacity of 103,507.  So aggy averaged 90.24% of capacity while UT averaged 94.40% of capacity.  Also, aggy still hasn't won shit, so stuff it marc.

    aggy outdrew us by a slight margin this past season. They averaged about 100,000 or so fans and we were at 96,305.

    You can get a helicopter upside down?

    My cousin who is in his late 60's flew helicopters in the Marines. His last service detail was flying Marine One from time to time (might've mentioned earlier in this thread) around the time of Reagan 2nd term, Bush I. It's been awhile but I'm pretty sure he's told stories of doing loops with rookies next to them with the hope of making them refund their breakfast in their masks.

    Pretty sure that Big Al's and Heim are focused on different audiences.  Big Al's pork rib basket special, $11.50 for ribs and 2 sides (or a baked potato), served on Tuesday and Saturday only, is a steal.  C-Man and I have long "agreed to disagree" about Big Al's!

    Agreed on that. Big Al's is competing with Sonny Bryan's and Mike Anderson's more than Heim.

    I hope it doesn't put Big Al's out of business.  That place has been there forever and we've always had a good (food) experience when eating there.

    Not really a fan of Big Al's.

    was there a general consensus on this site that Jim Turner never was all that he was cracked out to be? it would be unseemly to criticize from both sides of the issue; so either Turner was a bum who got lucky with one or two good classes under Sherman and those were Sherman evals to begin with, or he was good and Jimbo didn't know good when it landed in his lap.  i've seen criticism on both sides from Longhorn fans, depending on convenience.

    Plus, how sure are we that Turner was told to look around? He was at Miami Dolphins as OL coach after his Sherman years at A&M, and before he got hired back to A&M, he spent a year at OL coach at Cinci Bengals. Maybe he didn't get along with Jimbo and thought it's best to go back to NFL and luckily for him, the Cinci job was still his to be had.

    none of this shields criticism of Jimbo's OL issues, and Henson is still on the hook for making something out of the 2020 OL.

    bizzle is the one saying that Turner was told to look around. bizzle is aggy.

    Haven't read all 13 pages, but this page makes ceramic cooking sound like an absolute beating.  Was thinking about investing in one, but I think I’ll hold off.

    I'm just dipping my foot in the pool and I fucking love mine. Haven't tried brisket yet but the temp control is the best I've ever experienced (previously having cooked on WSM and large Klose offset).
