  1. IIRC it's called the Liucci - Stoops plan.
  2. You get Masters Historic, Masters Endurance, and Porsche Carrera Cup all three days this year. Both Masters categories have practices and qualifying sessions on Friday. The Porsches only have practice. Friday has the most hot track sessions of the three days (7).
  3. Marjorie Taylor Greene Doubles Down on Weather Comments After Backlash https://www.newsweek.com/marjorie-taylor-greene-doubles-down-weather-comments-after-backlash-1964508
  4. Bump. Going in tomorrow for my left hip replacement (severe degenerative osteoarthritis, bone on bone). Matthew Heinrich is my doc. Excellent reviews, and by multiple accounts 'the guy' in Texas for hip replacements. People come from all over Texas and even out of state to see him. I was gonna go with Frosty, but Heinrich's resume is just too good, and I think from what I can gather that Frosty is semi-retired and is just helping his boys now. I'm sure they are all excellent. Doing it at their surgical center in Lakeway, so no hospital stay or the associated bills. Outpatient. Should only be there a few hours total. They'll send me home and they want me up and moving the same day, but probably with a walker at first. MUCH less expensive than I anticipated, at least on my end. Surgery will be in the front, not the back like they used to do. Smaller incision, no cutting of the muscles, leading to better/quicker/easier recovery. Not looking forward to the rehab, but I know I need to go ahead and do this.
  5. Yep. Actually a LOT less for Montreal ticket prices. Montreal is an extreme bargain compared to any of the US races. This year, Montreal had something like 6 different grandstands that were cheaper than a GA pass at COTA will be. And it's in Montreal, so it has that going for it. Which is nice.
  6. If you're gonna go all 3 days, then yeah, prepare thy anus. If Friday only would do it for you, then you can do that pretty inexpensively. Don;t mess with Ticketmaster/COTA purchasing. You'll pay about 20% more in fees on top of the listed ticket price. Tickpick has Friday tickets right now starting at $18 all in. Going Friday only is a great way to get a feel for F1, the atmosphere, see/hear/smell the cars, etc, and then you can just kick back for the rest of the weekend & watch on TV. It's cheap and the crowd & lines are much more palatable, and it's a million times easier to follow the race on TV. With their shitty TVs and sound system, it's near impossible to follow the race at COTA.
  7. I mean, they're just using replay to legitimize bad calls now, and not just in football. MLB replay has gotten horribad.
  8. Well ... it was.
  9. Welp. Fuck everything. Replay is a fucking waste of time.
  10. Yeah that was obvious targeting even in real time.
  11. LMAO they're playing Rocky Top.
  12. Rent free. Some things never change.
  13. Haha fuck you Huepel you fat ugly fuck.
  14. Jesus fuck. Just end replay if you refuse to change the call on the field when it should be overturned. Fucking waste of time.
  15. Este. Nearing 50 years of Astros fandom for me, too.
  16. Yeah because lefties can't throw him a 2-strike slider or sweeper that's 6" to a foot off the plate, knowing he'll chase it every.single.time. FML.
  17. Oh, that's today? I forgot it was even happening. The AVP is in Austin, and for the first time since about 1991, I have zero desire to attend. Well done, AVP!! Bravo!
  18. New raw footage of Comer just before shooting the geese ...
  19. I disassociated myself from most of my Florida & Tennessee white trash family decades ago. I have little doubt the vast majority that are still kicking are fervent Trumpers. Fuck those motherfuckers.
  20. I must be too smart then ...
  21. Yep, and they aren't pitching and rolling all over the place.
