  1. Even when we stay on topic it’s a train wreck
  2. The fight doctor with the K.O.
  3. Wide right. Buffalo loves the classics.
  4. We’re apparently building a team to get out to big leads early and then have the NASCAR package on the DL to go after the QB when they are forced to pass by necessity. Or maybe with a better secondary we can commit more bodies to the box against the run.
  5. It’s an evergreen audience
  6. Great thread, just found and catching up. Key classification point is whether the movie depicted the current era while the generation in question was the audience (Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club, Fast Times), or whether it came out in a later era and reflected the high school experience of an earlier generation (American Graffiti, Grease, Dazed and Confused). In both situations it speaks to the viewer’s experience, but one is speaking to teens at the time and the latter is playing on nostalgia for older viewers’ younger days. For a GenXer like me, I’d go with Fast Times or Sixteen Candles as personal favorites that I saw while in high school but Breakfast Club is absolutely representative and meaningful for a large set of teens back then. It had some funny lines, but was ultimately too angsty for me to be a favorite.
  7. I’ve been trying to think why that expression is so familiar, and I finally figured it out.
  8. Vic can only buy so many copies. It’s not a sustainable business model.
  9. When Butch Jones was fired at Tennessee, Brady Hoke was named interim coach and apparently lobbied to the AD, John Currie, for the permanent job in text messages that were later obtained in a FOIA request: “JOHN I HOPE YOU DO KNOW I WOULD LIKE TO BE YOUR HEAD FOOTBALL COACH I DO KNOW THE ENVIRONMENT WE LIVE IN AND WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE AT TENNESSEE!” https://saturdaytradition.com/michigan-football/hoke-texts-former-tennessee-ad/ I get that same energy from Akina.
  10. I love the rumor that they sent a repo man out to tow his car the day he entered the portal. This needs to be more widely circulated.
  11. You are going to be salty on the golf course this spring with your Alabama buddies.
  12. @GreenspointTexas sock account identified
  13. I’m not a Jalen Hurts fan, but he’s a prince among men compared to that obnoxious prick Baker Mayfield. God, I hate that little banty rooster.
  14. Hey Charles, still some of these available on the clearance racks around town!
  15. Saban bought a $19 million house in Jupiter, FL. He may want to spend some time there.
  16. Wait, @texifornia is a ::gasp:: T-Shirt fan?!? Heaven forfend!
  17. Just give yourself another 15-20 years. You’ll be telling your kids about how great SnapChat was, explaining to them the concept of cable TV before streaming, or how Austin still had a small city vibe when you were on campus but now at 5 million people you don’t recognize it anymore. It’s coming.
  18. They are so proud that they are pillaging a dumpster fire program and giving scholarships (and possibly) NIL to players who were the cause of that fire. It’s like their conception of the Florida program hasn’t been updated since 2008.
  19. Do Texas fans have to refer to themselves as “tu” on TexAgs to avoid banning?
  20. Tennessee was after the Kansas guard as well. That’s the rare one who is probably an upgrade for them over what they have on the roster.
