  1. How? That's one of mine, hard to find outside raffle or secondary at 450+ Try Taverna Rosa - very solid bourbon list with most unicorns (incl pappy, etc) at decent price points.
  2. I lived in Little Rock in 87-88 (yeah old as dirt) - Arkansas wasn't really on my hated listed out of UT as it seemed in the 80s it was Ou/Aggy who drew most of our attention. That all changed when I lived in AR. They absolutely hate us - like shut down the state capital the friday before the game so we can stew on just how much the collective hates Texas. When they ask you where you're from in AR, they mean what part of AR or which high school did you go to. If you tell them you're from Texas, well, good luck selling them anything or getting them to lift a finger as a service provider. You are an outcast.
  3. They may have Les Miles PTSD from Ok State....
  4. Covid showed the fractures in their ivory tower, when they claimed no CFB and SEC and Big 12 said hold our beer. They seem to realize more quickly in this situation that they are not the king makers, and as you point out, that they will be much quicker to the mud pit.
  5. 247 Sports came out with top 150 portal transfers for 2021. I had been following our folks (in/out) and a few that were rumored to be targets but for the most part was not paying attention. I was surprised by a few items as represented by the list: 1) Texas first inbound is our new RB at #70 from AL (Robinson) Prior to #70: 2) Texas has three outbound (Ingram, Smith, Alford) 3) Suck has three in the top 21 - all inbound from Tenn and 5 overall 4) SMU (3), Baylor (2), WV (2), TCU (2), and Tech (1) What does it mean - not jack shit - other than this staff didn't hit the ball out of the park on inbound talent where there was a bunch out there for the taking. Maybe our bag game was stuck in neutral through the major parts of the cycle, or they had other shit to worry about, or that list sucks.
  6. Is the home sideline darker than rest of field? Or am I old, Or both?
  7. I'm guessing an "S" is enroute (nvm - it arrived) . However the "H" is not centered on Bevo's nose, thus the Goal Post will look F'd when they put it up - either uncentered on the nose or on the H
  8. That Jersey should not be available for recruit edits. Also get off my lawn
  9. Rattlesnake bar should be in your rotation...
  10. I'm not shocked that some have talked themselves into a "bad hire" position prior to any data to demonstrate that. Look, it's the off-season and for those half-empty types, you have every reason to talk yourself into depression. I choose to believe we'll be noticeably better as a team, record TBD depending on close game breaks. I prefer to focus on the need to get back into summer beach shape by trying to get the one-pack into a 1.5-2 pack through an unproven regime of laying in the sun while drinking beer, and slowly expanding sprint drills from 5 yards to 40 yards to be available as an alternate for the Sept Surly Olympics without shredding my hamstrings.
  11. I think you said you're staying at Los Altos. Post your thoughts/impressions when you get back, just booked there for late july.
  12. My Son is not on the Team, but close to a number of current players. He "knew" what had happened before the news was even public. It's a sobering discussion to have with a 21 year old - and it did hit home - that he and his friends aren't bullet proof, invisible, and immortal even though that's how we all felt at that age.
  13. Sark is Gru.
  14. Not for a long time, but that's when one's taste in candy is defined in terms of "best ever!". At least for me. Going to an actual candy store was the bomb.
  15. Fun Dip Candy Buttons Rock Candy Candy Cigarettes Jaw Breakers Original Bubble Yum Cotton Candy Pixie Sticks
  16. Looks like one needs negative test to get back into the US. Anybody sort that out while in CR? Tulemar or anything in that area for easy testing?
  17. Yeah, love this. the SEC sucked all year whenever rankings were shown. I did a quick look-up (Sports-reference.com). Overall defense in 2020, Aggies were 17th (3rd highest sec team behind GA and AL). There were SIX big 12 teams listed ahead of them. Similar stats in scoring, passing, rushing, where usually the hayseeds were 3rd in conference and behind 5 other big 12 teams. https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/years/2020-ratings.html
  18. What's sad is the lack of recent heart-break in Longhorn Sports. You've got to be good and you've got to be close to have something wrenched away. Hard to get worked up losing OT at OU when you know more losses on the way. Here's to some heart breakers in our near future.
  19. Lovell Pinkney
  20. He looks like Gru in this picture. The minions must be close by.
  21. I think we learned that Urban Meyer is the same cut throat scum bag we always assumed he was when he wasn't a candidate. That he used our interest to likely provide air cover for assistant discussions for the Jacksonville job he already had a line on with the owner and to create or have his agent create leverage on the money side. He had his opportunity and is now dead to me. I hope he flames out in the NFL and Sark is a home run. We'll see.
  22. Damn, that was the fraternity house well vodka - 30 years ago. First handle I ever saw that was plastic. We did steal a few and take to Farm Aid 2 though. Good times.
