  1. I don’t feel any sympathy for him. He got his dream job, and was paid well for 2 seasons while doing a poor job. He’ll now be paid handsomely to go away. We should all be so lucky.
  2. Does Jokic have an injury or is this load management? edit: He seems to have an elbow issue.
  3. Segura Vidas Sparkling Rose is another good one for $8. We tear those up in the pool every summer. Drinks better than a lot of sparkling roses in the $15-20 range. I find even expensive champagne somewhat bitter so no recs in that category.
  4. Bojangle’s I hope.
  5. RIP. Getting cut off at the Hobby Pappadeaux made my travel highlight reel.
  6. Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a banger for $16. I’d probably have to go up to an Artemis Stag’s Leap before I found another wine I liked better. Yarden Red Wine is great for $12, and it’s kosher. My favorite under $10 is sold at Target. California Roots Red Blend. It’s tough to beat for $5.
  7. Correct. I’d probably lean Tech coach over Drake coach. I’d be tempted to go as splashy as possible to fill the nicest gym in CBB, but thankfully CDC is much smarter than me.
  8. No Drake v Tech discussion? This could be the Runnin’ Horns Bowl for the coaches.
  9. Pretty cool. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/nba/article/timberwolves-give-joe-ingles-his-first-start-in-3-years-as-he-plays-in-front-of-autistic-son-for-first-time-045831605.html
  10. There’s been at least 2 Spanish language performances every year since 2020 if memory serves. Bun B seems to have a lock on Black Heritage, but they usually do another hip hop/hip hop adjacent every year. I don’t know what the right number is, but asses in seats is all that matters to them within reason. F bombs are a sore spot, and really that’s it.
  11. The girls got into the neighbors yard while we were getting ready for rodeo this evening. They dig as a team so they can move some dirt if you’re not watching. The people next door couldn’t have been nicer. Rang the doorbell and politely opened the gate to let me in. Those two knuckleheads were running around like BLM ponies in their backyard.
  12. I’ll take it every day of the week. Especially with Titter Tilman buying the team dances until last call.
  13. Matt Thomas’ sidekick said recently the Rockets have a “popular Miami strip club problem” and Matt didn’t correct him. Hopefully they got to bed early last night.
  14. I’ve come to conclusion that 20k steps in 8 hours will kill your feet no matter the boot. My choices next year are pain or tennis shoes.
  15. Other than the price, probably the only drawback at BB’s. Their crawfish always have hard shells. You’re leaving with a blister if you go through 5 pounds.
  16. Fun day. Sure as hell beats working. I counting probably a half dozen dead loss in about 5 pounds. Decent size. The guy that puts on the boil is an outstanding fella, but he lets them rest in the cooler too long before service. It causes about 75% of his yield to get kind of limp instead of a nice tight tail. i tried everything to time it right for freshness, but i got a few not great batches. The later batch was better of course because the water gets progressively spicer. I’ll grin and bear it because he’s a coworker. That said, I’ll gladly pay White Oak BB’s the money for better quality crawfish seasoned the way I like it.
  17. I have a work boil tomorrow. Hoping for the best. It is free after all. At a minimum, I will compliment them for their timing. Final week of rodeo and first day of March Madness. It’s not like we were going to be working anyway. My rodeo boil was unfortunately killed off during Covid, so this is the next best thing.
  18. Jack Black has a new movie coming out that should do well. Fine and unavoidable. Lizzo is the lone head scratcher. She was washed before the controversies, but she also has a new project. Lorne is doing a favor for one of his supper club buddies. He likes a comeback story, but I’m not sure she deserves this opportunity.
  19. Sark “dropped the hat” for the calf scramble. Dennis Quaid did it a few weeks ago. Son of bitch is old. He referenced going to the rodeo when it was at Coliseum. I’m so confused on the university nights. Was Monday UT night?
  20. It’s not a tense scene if Spence tells the hobos to just jump off the train.
  21. I think winning a series would be a tremendous accomplishment, but most Rockets fans are likely thinking bigger like a Western Conference Finals appearance. I think much of it will depend on our draw. The 6-9 teams are pretty good and have given the Rockets problems. We’d all be happy with beating the Warriors in Round 1. Starting my expectations there.
  22. Reed getting hurt might have been a blessing in disguise. Holiday is getting a lot of minutes now. Ime was never going to play a rookie in the playoffs, so might as well get Holiday ready. Good defender. Good shooter. I think he’ll give us something when it really matters.
