  1. SI is having quite a week. I thought nothing would be more embarrassing than using AI to write articles and to create fake reporter bios, but making Deion Sportsman of the Year takes the cake.
  2. Completely agree. Someone above mentioned a TV mini-series which would be cool. If a director's cut comes out, I'll definitely watch it, but not in one sitting.
  3. And AnimalTobacco (or @BeardIP or whatever you're calling yourself these days), get the fuck over yourself about gratuitous sex scenes. A major part of the story was about producing a male heir. Sexual intercourse is an important step in producing a male heir. My teenager somehow survived watching those scenes. Just like he handled seeing a pair of tits in Oppenheimer.
  4. Saw it last night with my 15-year old. He was bored, I thought it was alright. The problem is how quick the pacing was. I'm not the only one to point this out, but it just goes from scene to scene with no explanation or context. In ten movie minutes, we go from Russia and France are allies, now they are not, France must invade Russia, Moscow is abandoned, Napoleon is on Elba. The Russian invasion should have had so many Oscar bait scenes. I totally understand why my son was bored by it and it wasn't just teenage boy rolling his eyes at a love story. The plot was so hard to follow that it's just a jumbled mess. I teach European History so I knew the story and could keep up (in fact, I taught about Napoleon in class this week). My son knew the basic gist of the story, but that was it and he was totally lost.
  5. But overall conference strength shouldn't be an issue. The whole Big XII versus the whole Pac 12 isn't the question. It's the overall strength of the teams Texas played. We played all the top teams in the conference and missed a lot of the bottom half.
  6. That looks fantastic. Was it Lance Reddick's last role?
  7. Damn son, those are some thick lines of coke. I'm not judging, I'm just wondering if I could partake.
  8. "OK, the plane will be landing at the Lexington airport in one hour and we can't wait to see you in College Station. We've got the band, the Yell Leaders, and Reveille all ready to go ... Wait, what's that? You're in Durham? Are you visiting family there for the holidays?"
  9. My fifth-grader: "I need a new computer for Christmas." "What's wrong with your school one?" "They block most of the internet on it!" "They block the non-educational stuff. You just want a new screen to play games on." "No, they block educational stuff too. I had to do a report on beavers and I tried to google a picture. Almost all of them were blocked!" Me (doing everything in my power not to bust out laughing): Well, I'm not sure why the school would block pictures of beavers on the internet.
  10. I don't see Bert. I'll keep looking.
  11. If Oates wants to win, he should get a real top-notch, ball-buster of a lawyer. A real man eater. Sorry, it's the best I can do early in the morning. They're song titles really don't work well with lawyer and courtroom puns. Bonus points to anyone that can work in "Sara Smile" to a joke.
  12. Mine has been described as oaky and full, with floral notes and just a hint of mineral.
  13. I had the roast beef.
  14. Rising also got a two year military exemption early in his career because he was fighting in WWII.
  15. OK, OK, OK. No more advocating genocide starting ............ now.
  16. RIP to an amazing American woman. Since this is surly and all, Jimmy definitely outkicked his coverage. And he would be the first one to agree with that.
  17. Wow, the lack of self-awareness in this post is just ... slorch-ian is the only way to describe it.
  18. Oh hell yes. One of my favorite current shows on the air.
  19. My wife and I are planning a trip to Spain and Morocco. Over/under the number of times I say, "Oh no, it's the Moops"?
  20. Can't we just get a watery tart to throw a sword at us and solve this whole thing?
  21. If this movie was a documentary about gun parts, then I would care. But it's not, so I don't.
  22. I think, and the law eagles can correct me if I'm wrong, but the case was just about could Trump be on the ballot for the primary. And the argument goes that the RNC can nominate whomever they want even if he engaged in an insurrection. Now who is going to stop him from being on the actual election ballot in November is a different question.
  23. Oh no! @Guadaloopy, I hope your injuries aren't too serious.
