  1. They don’t use an index that I’m aware of. They just see a difficult road game and mark it as a loss.
  2. Very New Yorky for Linklater. Interesting. I love the inside baseball movies about Broadway, so I’m in.
  3. I finally found a copy in the Humble Barnes & Noble. Pretty glowing predictions for Texas, but that dork Mike Craven thinks we’re going to fOSU and Georgia. He also predicted Penn State with well known regard James Franklin as their HC will win the national championship.
  4. I kind of think they bought that Utica shit to take the shine off of their apple. Kidding, but maybe not.
  5. Agreed, but a hot, fresh donut is almost always outstanding. Work has ruined Shipley’s for me. They usually have the guy that gets in at 5am pick them up on his way to work. They then sit out until our meeting at 9am. So 4.5 hours of just getting cold and stale. Microwaving is usually effective, but it’s not as good. The only above average locations are North Main and Ella. North Main is open 24 hours so they usually have a fresh batch out. Ella serves a cake donut which is pretty popular with the old timers. Some will argue the far west Westheimer location, but they should be shuttered for what they call beignets. I really don’t care. They’re extremely mediocre to begin with, and much like Chicago Whataburger, something better will rise to replace them.
  6. I guess Florida made the right decision last year? They won their last 4 over 3 pretty good teams and their in state rival. They were 6-0 in games where Lagway started and finished the game. They’re fucked without Lagway is the easy take, but the more difficult observation is that Sunbelt Billy let the program get to a place where one player will make or break them.
  7. I think it’s the best burger in town.
  8. Margaret Qualley is a bad bitch. That is all.
  9. Initially I thought it was Beam. Sipped some more and it’s decent-ish Heaven Hill. You’d be better off just buying ECBP and saving 20 bucks.
  10. Not sure what I just watched? First time Diane depicted on film? That’ll get them taking at Comic Con.
  11. I have questions, and I need old timers help. 1) Why did Emory Ballard suddenly leave aggy? 2) Who was or who hired the OU spy? Switzer acknowledged there was a spy, but it was on Chucks’ staff. Who was Chuck? 3) Any more color on RC’s secretary driving on to the practice field would be greatly appreciated. Pretty fucking funny.
  12. Jeff Howe had some good thoughts on OU in a recent podcast. He basically said they’ve embraced becoming the new Nebraska instead of fighting against it, and they’re pussies for not trying with 5 stars. “They’re a top 5 program all time, a blue blood, they absolutely should be competing against Texas, Bama, and fOSU for the best players.”
  13. There was a path for this Venables shit to work. Hit the Christian culture thing harder than Dabo, and convince recruits Austin was the devil. Hell it recently worked with Fasusi. Instead, they turned to Nagy’s Moneyball bullshit because it was cheaper and didn’t require staff to follow boosters into the bathroom to ask for NIL contributions. Great approach in the Big 12, but they’re going to get killed in the SEC.
  14. I respect the Napier hustle. Took Lagway as a hostage, convinced UF to use his buyout money on NIL, and then sold this bullshit to podcast verse namely Andy Staples and Bud Elliott. Absolute agent masterclass in how to save your client’s job. UF recruiting still sucks, but they’ve talked themselves into anything is possible with Lagway/dark horse national championship bullshit. Lagway is great, but they just don’t have enough dudes.
  15. Just saw that JLC has been married to Chris Guest since 1984. My God, it has the most successful Hollywood marriage in history. Guest’s monologue in Waiting for Guffman is one of the funniest scenes ever filmed.
  16. Yep. Pretty curious. Doesn’t come from a family of athletes, but they all went to UF.
  17. Amazing show. The steakhouse stain on the tie scene is funny as hell.
  18. Listen to the OTF podcast from Saturday. Basically said it’s a matter of when.
  19. I’m good with it. He’s probably an annoying 3 year starter at OU, we’ll see at Texas. Maybe they think he’s the next Trey Moore. End of the day, with 105 scholarships might as well mess with OU when convenient.
  20. Gerry said yesterday Kreul to Texas is basically a done deal. Calculator.
  21. Yes consider the source, but Ian Boyd claims that Nagy reports directly to the new AD. I think Nagy outlasting Venables is a very safe bet.
