  1. First CD was Oasis (What's The Story) Morning Glory. I was 7 years old, liked Wonderwall on the radio, and demanded my parents buy it I think my first cassette was Matchbox 20 Yourself or Someone Like You. Again, I was 7, so cut me some slack. Not sure why I insisted on a CD for Oasis and a cassette for this one First LP was much later in life. Pet Sounds for about $5 at half price books in Dallas Can't be 100% sure on first download, but probably Horse With No Name by Neil Young, Walkin in Memphis by Bruce Springsteen, or Mrs. Robinson by The Beatles.
  2. For me, he’s earned a modicum of leeway due to some of the development seen in the first few years, particularly Christian Jones (who I remember being a complete fucking liability before Flood got here). Goosby as well, and I think Baker really improved throughout the season. The interior line recruiting post-pancake factory appears to be a complete disaster. Certainly no defense to that, except I get the sense that Sark has not been as loose with the purse string on the offensive line as he has with the defensive line (eg, being outbid for Fasusi and Ojo, although each of those are tackles). It’s also true that good offensive line coaches do have shit output from time to time. For example, Ohio State’s line was pretty terrible last year with a ton of rotation until they finally found a lineup that worked in the playoffs. All that to say, I’ll be perfectly happy if we cut him loose and can upgrade, but I understand why he could get another season to work it out.
  3. I don’t have first handle knowledge of this deal, but I’d tend to agree that it is loan-like, although as a technical matter it reads more like a pref equity instrument than a debt instrument to me (which would be preferred from Utah’s perspective). Share in distributions of free cash flow during life of investment, with a put/call feature in 5-7 years that has price protections for both sides. “As for Utah’s partnership, in exchange for the upfront cash, Otro will earn a large percentage of annual revenues generated from Utah Brands & Entertainment as it splits funds with the university. An exit strategy — in five to seven years — exists, and the university holds the right to purchase Otro’s ownership stake”
  4. It was about a lot of things, money being one of them.
  5. A&M’s draw in the bracket is absolutely brutal. Have to beat Miami, Ohio State, Georgia and probably Oregon or Indiana in 4 straight games? Not a chance.
  6. Let me know when you find a football focused forum that isn’t.
  7. sorry, baby. streaming on HBO. Odd to say this about a movie centered around a heavy topic, but I found this movie really funny and at times a delight to watch. One of my favorite scripts of the year.
  8. Many thanks, significant improvement.
  9. Easily the best inside linebacker we’ve had since DJ. Pretty shocking how mediocre we’ve been at that position this century.
  10. Getting Goosby and McDonald back would be huge for next year. I’d like to see Kobe Black come back as well. I’m a little surprised about Ffrench. I assumed he was the guy who folks have alluded to being out the door.
  11. Generally on board with this, except I’d like DJ Campbell, Robertson and Hutson all to play so Arch doesn’t die.
  12. Visited in laws in New Orleans for Thanksgiving. Came out of my hotel bedroom to find my 3 year old son on the floor in the living area surrounded by a mound of plastic wrappers he’d taken off of every single snack jar in the mini bar (without eating anything). The bill came in. Turns out the four seasons is neither forgiving nor cheap when it comes to breaking the the seal on the mini bar (the four mini bottles of makers mark, sure, I’ll cop to that).
  13. You’re engaging with a stupid person, no point in trying. The Alabama example with FSU is even more obvious, but not worth it.
  14. If you are still spouting this mouth breathing nonsense, you are either a stupid person (and I’m genuinely sorry if that’s the case), or a willfully ignorant person (in which case, fuck you). It’s been disproven on multiple threads in painstaking detail.
