  1. Doc, you been hanging out in my hood? https://nypost.com/2023/02/16/thief-steals-bentley-trashes-it-after-joyride-in-manhattan/
  2. So is there any connection between A&M and MSU other than A&M lobbying to get a traditional cellar dweller? I would have thought Arkansas was a no brainer for them, given SWC past and recent Jerry world tradition.
  3. During the dark days of COVID, they dramatically changed/loosened the regs to allow restaurants to secure dining areas on the curb or parking spots immediately in front, so that they could make income while indoor dining was banned. Outdoor dining was really popular with most people under 60, so they’ve stuck around.
  4. “I know some national reporter types would have you believe Jimbo was turned down by his top choice. Typical narrative-driven fake news driven by a school down in Austin. Jimbo is casting a wide net to ensure he hires only the most elite wide receivers coach. In fact, sources in Bright have told me Jimbo has recently zeroed in on someone close to Aggieland as the top target. I can’t say who yet, but let’s just say it rhymes with Shameyune Dreg.”
  5. Thanks, there is one of those stores just a few blocks up from me. I’ll check it out
  6. I married into an LSU family, and all of my in laws want their permanents to be “original 10” schools. They view Arkansas and A&M as manufactured rivalries, and would prefer Ole Miss, Florida, and either Bama or Auburn. I suspect they will be disappointed.
  7. Yeah, I know I’m starting to age out of my neighborhood in lower Manhattan because my local watering holes look like a Clueless recasting after 10pm.
  8. Is there a consensus on quality dark jeans that are neither cut too skinny nor too dad jean, without any sort of branding on the back pockets? Does such a thing exist? 511 Levi’s are a bit too skinny, 501s a bit too billowy. It used to be the norm to show up to client dinners in a suit, which I prefer, but post pandemic almost everyone seems to be wearing jeans on a regular basis. Edit to add: by “quality” I don't mean some concrete rigid Japanese denim I have to wear every day unwashed for 3 years before they look like an actual pair of blue jeans.
  9. My AU buddy seems to think they are getting Vandy as a permanent to counterbalance Alabama and Georgia. In the alternative I guess they get LSU, in which case, ouch.
  10. OU and Arkansas have such little history compared to A&M and Arkansas, I don’t really understand the rationale there. A&M and OU at least have Big 12 overlap, but I’m guessing A&M throws a fit to avoid that.
  11. It’s painfully obvious it should be Texas: OU, Ark, A&M A&M: Texas, Ark, LSU Ark: Texas, A&M, LSU OU: Texas, Missouri, who gives a shit
  12. Interior defensive line needs to be priority 1, 2 and 3. Hitting the SEC in 2024 with what we have in the pipeline behind Sweat, Collins and Broughton is no bueno unless multiple guys dramatically out perform their ranking.
  13. Great rec. I picked up a few and these have been my winter rotation. Easy free and quick delivery to New York too. Why Dubarry instead of C&J?
  14. Passing on Wagner was insane at the time, and even crazier in retrospect.
  15. Turning the 2nd pick into 5 seconds in less than three years is not great, Bob. Of course taking Kuminga over Wagner was even worse (even at the time). A championship takes the sting off two whiffs I suppose.
  16. Exactly one poster said he was washed, and that was called out as a stupid take. Everyone else has said he’s a supremely talented shit head, which hasn’t changed. It has everything to do with basketball, because availability and desire to play actually matters when the goal is winning a championship.
  17. Definitely seems like a role worth 30% of your cap and 4 first round picks (3 of which are unprotected). A winning recipe to be sure.
  18. An unprotected first for a losing player like Russell seems crazy, especially since it doesn’t make them competitive in the west. Like what’s the point? But maybe they just desperately needed to rid themselves of Russ. Edit: just saw it’s got some protections, so that helps.
  19. 100% this. FM is incredible. The Square is good. Triangle of Sadness is boring and has nothing of interest to say.
