  1. The fact that they’re so weird actually gives them perpetual hope. The new coach either “goes against the grain” and makes them modern and cool (Sumlin) or he’s “old school” and takes them “back to the days of Junction.” Hard nosed, take no bullshit. They can vacillate between those two constantly and convince themselves each time that it’s true.
  2. Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Michael Dell. Quitters and losers.
  3. I believe it's through appetite reduction. Although when I started taking it I seemed to lose weight immediately even when I didn't change my diet that much. Plus the weight loss is limited, not continuous as you might expect from a general reduction in caloric intake (given a similar amount of caloric burn). Source: am diabetic.
  4. Not their record. It’s the score of a game they win against us and, allegedly, branded into our mascot. They claimed it’s named Bevo because we modified the 13 - 0 to read BEVO.
  5. Does anyone know Florida’s nickname?
  6. Busted coverage aside, that throw lead the receiver to catch it almost perfectly in stride.
  7. He posted on Shaggy a few years back. He ended up going to Tech even though he was "permanently banned" after the goalpost incident. I think he even auctioned off the Gap T-shirt for charity at that time. Vincent somethingorother.
  8. I think it's just that there are no good photos of him. He's so doughy.
  9. God forbid we end up being stuck with... *checks notes* the next Colt McCoy.
  10. Well, he fulfills the main prerequisite. He hates Texas a lot.
  11. Yes. I recall that in my time there. They were asking for it.
  12. I think my favorite part about this statue is that there's absolutely no detail around the guys FUPA/crotch. Just smoothly-flowing curves as if he were wearing a mumu. It's like the sculptor thought it would be too gay to sculpt around the dude's junk so he just decided to leave that part out.
  13. Why does he have a deer in his crotch?
  14. YouTube channel Deeestroying does WR/DB competitions all over the country. When a DB locks down a receiver or bats a ball away, they say the receiver was “strapped” and do the motions of putting on a seatbelt.
  15. Man, mid-80s Deborah Foreman. She didn't do much acting but in that movie she was the best thing there was.
  16. Did you set the hoops they went through to convince themselves they could appeal to “urban” kids when they hired Sumlin? AgSwag. Swagcopter with the maroon vinyl wrap. Drake being friends with the QB There isn’t a bigger cultural gap than what they tried there.
  17. Sounds about right. A coding error in Tex might have been responsible for my whole career. I owe that dramatic bastard as lot.
  18. The excessive exposition was actually the funniest part for me.
  19. Some might even call it a "coinkidink."
  20. In that situation they’re getting paid anyway.
  21. Sometimes they have stars under contract for a certain amount of time or appearances. If they’re planning on moving on they might just use up those stipulated appearances. i worked on the Microsoft account and they had Kevin Spacey on contract (before he was all sex harrassy). He was contractually required to come read for something I was casting VOs for but he refused. He told them they could sue him if they wanted to. But he was still contractually obligated and we didn’t want to work with him anyway.
  22. It’s not a sword. It’s a seatbelt. YouTube channel deestroying uses to say the receiver is “strapped.”
  23. Not a single acute angle on that fucker.
