  1. SNOB, High Cotton, Magnolia, Anson, and Hank’s Seafood are some backup options near where you are staying. There will be lots of tourists in that area, but all of these places have been around forever and are local institutions. Fleet Landing out on the water is also nearby and has good seafood offerings. I can also vouch for FIG and Husk. Right across the street from your hotel is The Vendue, which has a nice rooftop bar. If you go to Upper King St., Hall’s Chophouse is Cougar Town Central like CTJ says, and the food isn’t half bad. The Grocery and The Ordinary are also good choices in that part of town. O-Ku is a decent sushi restaurant as well. Proof and Prohibition are good places for craft cocktails and Stars Rooftop has great atmosphere when the weather is nice for a rooftop bar. It’s really hard to go wrong with food in Charleston.
  2. Compare and contrast with Gerry’s post game show where he called our similarly close loss “an embarrassing way to lose.”
  3. Gerry was talking about him over the weekend. Says he’s real underrated and looks like one of the best HS prospects at LB in the country.
  4. I’m sorry, I missed her “aggressively hostile and shitty” response to the situation. What did she do? I thought the complaint was she just ignored it.
  5. Again, I hold no brief for Kim Mulkey and knew nothing about her other than she rode Britney Griner to championships at Baylor and won another championship at LSU last year wearing ridiculous outfits. My objection was to the original RedditCFB post saying Mulkey “didn’t lift a finger” to get Britney Griner out of prison in Russia. Griner was a hostage taken by an autocrat playing 19th century power politics. We had to trade the Lord of War to get her back, for God’s sakes. There was literally nothing that Mulkey could have done to effectuate her release regardless of her platform as a women’s college basketball coach, and the tweet made it sound like all Mulkey had to do was make a few phone calls to get her out. It was a ridiculous tweet and if there is as much actual dirt on Mulkey as this thread seems to suggest, there should have been much more legitimate arrows in the quiver to sling.
  6. Eh. These kids playing for GCU didn’t scam anyone. It’s probably the pinnacle of their athletic careers with a chance to knock off a name brand school and they’re playing their guts out. I’m pulling for them even if I wouldn't send my kids there. Not that it will do them any good.
  7. You prefer Alabama? This game is fun as hell. Just completely frenetic and out of control.
  8. Clemson’s Girard looks like Setshot from the Fish That Saved Pittsburgh. Just needs a headband.
  9. Absolutely true. Just offering my thoughts on the season as a whole.
  10. I can’t be entirely mad about this season. From a Texas Men’s Basketball historical perspective it’s probably in the 60th percentile of seasons I’ve watched. Beat the Sooners twice, Baylor once, and sent thousands of Tech fans home disappointed in the last game we’ll play in Lubbock. Then a win in the NCAAT. Not bad by our standards for the sport. The future, however, does not seem to be on an upward trajectory. Let’s see what the portal brings and resume the discussion this time next year.
  11. Disu is like Kevin Costner shooting for the green at the end of Tin Cup.
  12. I know, it feels better to blame things on one player you don’t like. The reason we’re losing is we’ve scored 25 points in 25 minutes.
  13. We’re 1-14 from 3 with 12 turnovers, but sure, Brock’s the reason we’re going to lose.
  14. That seems like a better angle to go after her by the RedditCFB account, but then again that account seems like the type who thinks starting a #FreeBritney hashtag on Twitter or changing a profile pic on Instagram actually means something.
  15. I’m no Kim Mulkey fan but what exactly was she supposed to do to get Britney Griner out of a Russian prison?
