    when AMH is under the glass coffee table squealing Jaaaaaake, always kills me.  

     

    And never realized that was Lenny playing in the background until about 20 years later.

     

     

    To many quotes to name an official “best” but before the dorks go into Jakes house.  AMH rings the doorbell and then turns to them and say’s “and be polite to his parents”

  2. It makes me sick thinking about it but that fucking Darren Rovell tweets a new auction record it seems like everyday to remind me but I HAD 3 of these.

    Sophomore in high school I would buy a pack of these twice a week or so.  Was more into baseball cards but these came out and since I was playing basketball thought it would be cool to have.  Probably ended up with 3 or 4 complete sets.  After he retired and I was a few years out of college with not much money to speak of I figured they were reaching peak value.  Sold all three for $500/piece.  Pretty good return for maybe a $50 investment .  They are now routinely going for $200k, $300k, $400k in auctions.  Of course those prices are for grades of 10 but I no doubt had at least 8's.  I had them in sleeves at least a year or two after purchase and then put into screw down cases once they started getting valuable.  Still got all the rest of the cards though 😂  if anyone wants an Hakeem,  Barkley or Bird.

  3. Cause I was cold and a little drunk and ready to go back inside and I didn’t feel like fucking with it.  Hell, sober and in direct sunlight it took me almost a minute to get that sucker out.  Dont think I’ve seen a good a hookset as that.  The only way he was getting off is if he broke the 6lb test.

    PLO can be so much fun. Yesterday flopped quads in position 4-handed, and the action before me was bet, raise, call. Turn was check, bet 50% of pot, call. River was bet 90% of pot, call.

    Yup.  Those are the hands you are just waiting for.  If you stay halfway patient and don't get sucked into playing too many hands preflop you should eventually score a couple of pots like that.  I played on Black Friday and lost $700 in the first 30 minutes but topped the stack back up and stuck with it.  Was able to cash out +$700 after a couple more hours.   One guy was just rebuying $100 at a time and would generally put it in with any hand.

    Where have you been playing?

    What's the best way to prepare spanish mackerel?

    I catch dozens every summer but throw them back.

    Simple way is to broil them skin side down and baste them with a garlic butter and parmesan cheese mixture a couple times during the broil.  Only fresh fillets, don't freeze them.
