    This is the type of game we’d lose or draw last season. Come on and hold.

    Both of these. Six points from six. Great start to the season.

    Rather kind of the B1G office to keep the Pedos and Sparty (who, you know, are in the B1G East) off tOSU's schedule, giving them as easy a path to 8-0 as possible.

    Fuck them and the B1G.

    And the University of Texas does everything in its power to keep it together.

    Mind bottling.

    Not sure what's more sad: that we are keeping a shitty conference together or we can't manage to win said shitty conference.

    Then when they pack their to-go container, they just put it in there.  Over the years we ended up with 3 or 4 of them.

    Or your wife is a little klepto, like mine. 

    Yep, yep, and yep. I see we aren’t the only household who has a few of those. And by “a few” I mean like 10.

    I am no scientist but in my experience I have gotten a decent smoke ring when I put way more wood in than recommended.  

    But I don't give a fuck about a smoke ring. If I cook a brisket for guests and some doucher asks where is the smoke ring, I'll be happy to throw him out on my driveway on his ear.

    This right here. 

    The fire in a WSM doesn’t “burn” the way a fire burns in a stick burner. It is more of a “smolder,” which typically releases less nitric oxide than a raging fire in an offset firebox, and less NO = less of a smoke ring. Usually. I’ll use 6-8 chunks to start and throw one on every two hours until it hits 140, and that often helps me get a bit better smoke ring.  You could also add a tsp or two of celery seed to your rub (naturally-occurring nitrates) to boost the smoke ring without affecting the flavor. 
     

    The best-tasting and most tender briskets I’ve cooked have had little to no ring, so it’s all for show anyway.

    Outstanding, sir.  Simply outstanding. Rolling with a paper towel, not even bothering with a paper plate, adds a point on my scorecard.

  7. Another vote for the 22.5" WSM.  It may use more fuel than the 18, but IMHO the trade off of not having to trim the proteins to make them fit makes the extra charcoal expense a small price to pay.  Three full slabs of StL spares will fit perfectly across the top grate without trimming, as will all but the largest briskets.

    I've never considered a fan system; the WSM is pretty much "set and forget" after the first few cooks.

    I’m cautiously optimistic heading into the season and think Arteta has us heading in the right direction. Gabriel should be a big boost to the back line if they can close the deal (reported to be close), and the youngsters should continue improving after getting experience last year.

    without him and Leno we'd have been in a relegation fight last year. 


    Yep

    it's pretty comical how many fans of opposing clubs refer to Pepé as a flop. 

    direct fk goals, fk assists, assists from corners, penalties, first-time finishes, sublime left-footed finishes that remind you or arjen robben; i wish every "flop" had a first season at Arsenal that looked like this. 

     

    No doubt. He showed a lot of promise in year 1; hoping he continues to grow and get a bit more consistent this season. A special talent, for sure.

    Read an article this past weekend in Austin Monthly, I think, that P. Terrry's "was on the cusp of toppling fast food royalty in Texas, Whataburger".   Granted, the source, but still it was laughable.

    Yeah, that's a dumb article.  Toppling Whataburger, which has 687 locations across this great state? Shouldn't they have to expand beyond Austin before that claim could be made?

    Put me in the Onion rings >>> fries camp as well; don't recall the last time I didn't switch for onion rings.
