  1. A bunch of minor celebs are dumped in Morocco for training with some special forces dudes. It’s the 4th season. This season johnny Fucking Football jussie Smollett (please get blowed up) Kody Brown of Sister Wives Theresa Guidice some others
  2. Campo Verde was a weird joint. Ate there back in the 80’s and it was the worst fucking Mexican food I ever ate. That includes Mexican food in Wisconsin and Massachusetts. It wasnt TexMex, or any regional Mexican; it was like something made on Mars in the 60’s. Got dragged back around 08 by someone saying “oh they fixed it; it’s yummy now!”. Not. By then they had loaded it with filthy christmas decorations that launched big dust bunnies when the ac came on, and the food still sucked. Also they allowed smoking because it’s Pantego. It reeked. They closed it down even though there is this weirdo contingent of superfans who loved the Christmas lights. so last year moose benhamacht bought it and cleaned it up. The building should have been condemned probably. He owns the excellent Cafe Americano in Arlington. He cleaned it up, kept about half the lights, and the train, and brought a new menu of more expensive Mex Tex and Mexican influenced dishes. Of course the OGs who flooded the place on its reopening in May pissed all over it. so he’s always a tweaker on his concepts; yanking losers off his menu and trying new shit fairly quickly. So he’s figured out that he underestimated the problems with the old clientele and their shitty tastebuds and decided to milk it thru Christmas then shut down and do a total remodel for a new unknown concept in 26. it’s the same issue with the folks that bought Pulidos and Margie’s, changing recipes and the menus. You can’t by some brands and change them. If someone bought Joe T’s and made a change it would be a disaster. But cattleman’s benefitted from Taylor Sheridan’s acquisition.
  3. Cool! Le Bernadin is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever eaten at, along with French Laundry and Commanders Palace. That has to be a great experience and will be great in his CV.
  4. We binged it thru all of the eps. The finale is Wednesday. I would have liked an episode on the CIA and then one doing background of the contestants, showing them in their current situations. One is a chef for the NY Jets, various exec chefs and sous chefs with serious CVs, and some private chefs. It was hard to get a feel for them in the show. the show is good but some of these cooks are out of their league compared to others. I would perhaps liked it with a bit older folks as some of them were really immature in terms of cooking and hospitality. Best ep is the brigade one where they run a restaurant and get all kinds of curveballs. I thought about going to cia and my old man had me do some work in fancy joints in Memphis. Back then these dudes worked like dogs for no money. After a few weeks washing pans, prepping shit, and a little line work when slammed I decided on college. i did not know they have a campus in San Antonio. The one in California is magnificent; wife and I took a tour.
  5. Eberflus is the issue not Micah being gone. He has them in zone 100% of plays. Only rushes 4 like 98%. Put em in man, manufacture blitzes, and maybe it changes. He is a terrible coach.
  6. Her name is Jen. Bert out kicked his coverage. And she has borne him kids and stayed with him thru his drunkenness at Arkansas. For a while she was the hottest wife in the SEC but the completion was women or men like Les Myles wife err husband whatever.
  7. We can only hope. What’s the cap hit if he gets dreaded?
  8. Tom Thumb has pork butts for 85 cents a pound. I bought three. One to grind up. One cut into smaller roasts for the crock pot. One for the smoker with kid.
  9. Tyler Smith is turning into the next Zach. $24 mil apt. Signed him early instead of waiting. I’m fine with it.
  10. The footwork went from bad to worse. I think he’s got a ways to go.
  11. I’m not jumping Jerry’s leg because I was against him paying him the $40 mil that was offered. He should have been traded for picks back before the draft. You can’t pay three guys half the cap, especially when one is a basket case mentally before any truly big game, and a head case pass rusher who lacks the stamina for a 20 game season, has one playoff sack, and can’t defend the run. this D can’t stop the run which is the primary requirement of championship defense in the nfl. 11 was part of that failure four four seasons. Scheme alone can’t stop the run but one can manufacture pressure, as Eberflus did in the second half. Both Ben Johnson and Dan Campbell expressed more relief that Kenny Clark was gone than fear of parsons. can’t judge trades until all the picks are made but if cowboys draft pro bowlers as they do better than anyone then they’ll get 3, and one of them should be packaged for picks at some point. I believe in the end Jerry woke up, maybe from watching his doc, and made a bold move, making big cap space, having four ones in two years, and addressing a critical need. Star edge rushers alone don’t make championship teams; the last was the Von miller broncos
  12. Frederick would not have lasted very far into the 2nd round despite what the media dicks say. Of course the media folks say trade down, but you have to have a partner and you have to be confident another team won’t snag him. He would have been a HoF player had he not gotten sick. What a line that was with Zack and Tyron.
  13. Im glad he’s gone. I believed for the past couple years they should have traded either CeeDee or Micah. Micah is not worth $47 mil a year; he’s not shown a dominating presence in four years; he’s weak against the run, and is often out of place. We’ll see how he does in cold weather playing the nfc north all season. 2 ones and a pro bowl DT and all that cap space freed is good stuff. 11 can eat his nachos in Green Bay.
  14. Micah will lose that grievance. The film of where he lines up is substantially as a DE. Not a LB. He’s a nutjob.
  15. This team ain’t winning shit with him or without him. He is the Dak of defense. 1 sack in his playoff games. A player getting the biggest nonQB contract should be Lawrence Taylor/ Reggie White level of greatness. He runs out of gas in a 17 game season. I would have traded him.
  16. Kpop demon hunters. I have three granddaughters 10, 7, 6. Fairly sheltered. Will be babysitting them for ten days. Is there anything really disturbing in this? I’m thinking anime horror show with gut eating and Demi’s rituals. Is it ok as I know the oldest wants to watch it.
  17. https://www.dailycamera.com/2025/08/26/colorado-buffaloes-football-ralphie-vi-retires/ she got retired due to an “indifference to running”. I can relate. She’s sent to the ranch to hang with Ralphie V. were Bevo to pull this shit he’d be on a menu.
  18. His mri of his “sore back” came back clean meaning he doesn’t get paid for being injured. Every game he misses costs him $1.4 mil each. Jerry can also declare him “quit squad” and he gets no money for 25, and Jerry still has him for 26/27. The agent is not looking out for the fiduciary interests of his client. It’s his responsibility to pursue it, not Jerry.
  19. Why not both. Jimmy Dean sausage doesn’t yield enough fat, so I often augment with bacon grease. Awesomeness.
  20. The DMN, the Times Herald, and the Star Telegram made a pierrgul trio of print soports journalism. Add in Dave Campbell and we were blessed.
  21. I think you’re wrong. Jerry admits quite a few mistakes publicly. He has often said he failed to give Romo the supporting cast he needed to win a ring. He has said Chan Gailey and Campo were mistakes. That several of his free agent signings and trades were ill advised. Said firing Wade mid season was wrong and he hasn’t “fired” another coach since. He simply failed to give them a new contract. Jerry has his faults and some glaring but almost every player and coach loves working for him because he wants to win. That’s because unfortunately he’s not demanding of them, doesn’t hold them accountable, coddles the shit out of them, and doesn’t like demanding coaches that want to work the team in Wichita Falls in 103 heat vs soft SoCal.
  22. Your bartender was likely a transplant from Sioux Falls and doesn’t personally like hot dogs , so he says shit like that to appear so cool and hip. Fuck that guy. Everyone I know from Chicago has their strong opinions on the best dogs, Italian beef, burgers, pizza but they all ate tons of it. I will say most highly leaned on thin tavern style pizza vs stuffed or deep dish. I gotta say I love dogs but in most joints I go with Maxwell St Polish or a combo Italian beef hot sweet half dip. And always tavern style pizza.
  23. Same scenario on the Mortician doc on HBO. That dude is fucked and should have been fed into a wood chipper.
  24. They will only guarantee his contract for one season. The total money is not the issue, the ridiculous Mike brown guarantee is.
