I think 2022 was an outlier of sorts for sure, although he should be capable of better numbers than he had in 2023 and 2024. Without the right complementary players, strong wingers and a good striker, Driussi was limited. Defenses often double teamed Driussi because the remaining players could not consistently mount a dangerous attack without his contribution.
I would love to see Driussi play a season with Bukari and Vazquez, but the rumors suggest that he is leaving. Any one player is replaceable, if that's what the front office wants to do. A lessor replacement for Driussi will be problematic in my opinion since so much of the offense relies upon playmaking from that position.
Looks good and handy. What are you going to put back there?
It would be a good solution for all of the shit I have stuffed up under my seat - 4-way, tool bag, extra belts, jumper cables. Unfortunately, I don't have a folding bench seat in the '69 and no plans to relocate the gas tank.
Getting ready for some cold weather. 5 lbs of chuck, an onion, some garlic, some spices, with guajillos and anchos. With an hour or so for prep and 3-4 hours of simmering, had to make Tuesday's dinner this afternoon.
Burnt Bean is outstanding.
Reese Bros in San Antonio would be great as well. I don't remember if they have inside seating, though ‐ so that would be a consideration depending on the weather.
I think some of the issue has to do with the definition of a drink: a 12-ounce can of regular beer at 5% alcohol by volume; a 5-ounce glass of wine at 12% alcohol by volume; a 1.5-ounce shot glass of distilled spirits at 40% alcohol by volume.
Pint of beer = more than a drink
Beer at greater than 5% abv = more than a drink
Wine in a water goblet (Mrs. Callo) = more than a drink
Higher proof bourbon = more than a drink
I liked season 2 - watching the front man imbed and compete in the games, the dynamics of the player relationships (mom & son, crypto guy and rapper), soldier 011, etc.
Stared this morning by rinsing and sorting black-eyed peas - eventually realizing that I was rinsing pinto beans. Fuck. Off to HEB for some actual black-eyed peas.
Peas and cornbread while watching the game.
Sous vide pork chops, bacon grease sautéed cabbage, and more black-eyed peas for dinner.
After several years with everyone on my list surviving, I hit with three in 2024 for a total of 121 points (Richard Lewis, Shannen Doherty, and Jonnie Irwin).
My picks came in a couple days late, though.
