  1. List of currently-unemployed college coaches that would do a better job than Shaka: Abe Lemon Jerry Tarkanian Henry Iba Adolph Rupp John Wooden James Naismith
  2. Because they aren't going to get the necessary donations with The Shocker still coaching
  3. Try Restaurant Rebirth in the Warehouse District. Check the reviews...
  4. Unfortunately, few choices on my side of town. Choices for breakfast tacos are Rudy’s or Torchy’s. Not really anything different for lunch or dinner either except full service places.
  5. That was the point of my post. At the Lakeway store at least, it was a thick corn tortilla, not the usual one that falls apart, and a fresh flour tortilla, not one from a bag.
  6. Last trip to Torchy’s was just 2 weeks ago (Anderson Mill location in Austin). Usual crappy tortillas. Went by the Lakeway location tonight, where I’ve been many times. Got home and opened the foil — to find a (seemingly) freshly=made, thick griddled flour tortilla on one taco, and a thick tasty corn tortilla on the other. Have they finally decided to get rid of the cheap ass tortillas?
  7. He needs great coordinators because he can't coach anything himself....
  8. Popeye’s used to be great — right up until the holding company that owns Burger King bought the chain a couple of years ago
  9. At Stanley's, hard for me to pass on the 4 -meat combo plate ("Meat only, no sides")
  10. There are a number of places on Broadway that you can go in under 21, including Bluebird Cafe. Several restaurant/bar places as well on Broadway. Some places limit it to 21+ after certain hours. It will be fun just to walk up and down, pop in a few places, and see what a ****show it is Country Music Hall of Fame is nice as well
  11. Farmstead is good, as other have said. Others in St Helena: Market, Goose & Gander, Brasswood (Italian),Press (steak). For quick sandwiches between wineries: Sunshine Market, Giugni WF & Sons Wineries: Revana is between St Helena and Calistoga. We like Dr. Revana’s wines, and the property is really nice. Calistoga area: Jericho Canyon (cool place with terraced vineyards and good wine. Ask to tour the vineyards in the ATVs), Perliss (small production place but really great wine. Aaron Pott is the winemaker on the cab, and consults on their others). VIneyardist (Diamond Mountain) —cab only, but amazing wine, though pricey. And Seven Stones — also between ST Helena and Calistoga — great cab/Aaron Pott wine, and beautiful property.
  12. The Traeger does make it easy to throw on pretty much anything on a regular basis, so it gets a lot of use
  13. I feel like i spend a lot of money on wine. Clearly I'm an amateur Not that bad. Apart from 3 that are 6-packs and one case, the rest are 3 packs, and ordered over several months. It’s just that the shipping all gets concentrated these days
  14. Last 2-3 weeks have been crazy. Memento Mori, Immortal, Scarecrow M. Etain, Benediction, SHibumi Knoll, Pott, Vineyardist, Kelly Fleming, Peter Michael, and La Pelle, Still to come: Piper, more Pott (better stuff), Seven Stones, Arkenstone, Mascot, William & Mary, and some library Krupp I was able to get. My receptionist is getting tired of this...
  15. I gave up my man card and got my "lazy ass want to put on the brisket and go back to sleep in 15 minutes" card
  16. Had a Traeger for 5+ years and never had an issue with the auger feed.
  17. You're right. They might be reaching for Dickie's.
  18. He said “decent” BBQ joint. Bill Miller’s doesn’t reach that level.
  19. Restaurant Rebirth, in the Warehouse district. The NO Art Museum and sculpture garden is actually really nice And sorry for your loss as well
  20. You mean like going to the concession stand as a kid and ordering a “Suicide?”
  21. Yeah -- so what they've done now is move most of their production to Solano County (next door to Napa) so they can continue to churn out massive quantities.
  22. FYI -- it' s not just that some people don't like the wines; the Wagner family is notorious for over-producing.
  23. What I meant was their chicken sucks now. Used to be great.
