  1. Zardes, Lleget, Moore, Bello. Those four have detracted more from our effort than added. So frustrating when you have an immediate upgrade sitting 20 yards away.

    Kaysars speech before vote was epic. I’m all for blowing up games if the season is stagnant .

     

     

     

    Then you think about it...when he says they all suck at it, well they went and formed an alliance while he was attached to the hip to janelle who obviously was going to be the biggest target week one. Appears to be an OK boomer, sour grapes moment by him

     

     

    And then admitting he didn’t come back for the money(what biotech ceo or whatever he does needs 500k) but to raise awareness to what’s going on in the world? Good riddance, turd. That reeks of a cover up to how bad he played big brother vs the way he played 15 years ago and getting schooled by a bunch of people 10-15 years younger than he is

    I like Kaysar and Jannelle, and I want to believe that they could have masterminded an interesting dynamic had they not been very early targets.  However, their games deserve very honest criticism on each of them having a huge blindspot for Memphis.  Memphis was at least their 2nd or 3rd closest ally (in their minds), but Memphis was a central figure in the alliance that was their own ultimate demise.  

    They didn't get robbed; they got played. 

    Also, as alluded to, things appear to be heating up this week.

    Nicole F- weak, whiny, likes to pity party, zero physical or strategies so game (other than booming up with a ton of guys)

    Bayleigh- normally good for drama, but nothing else. i'm not sure she even knows she's supposed to be playing a game.

    Davonne- I have been a Davonne fan from day one, but she brings nothing to the table 

    Dani- strengths: lounging around in sweat pants. That's it. That's my Dani profile.

    Christmas- the only physical threat in the house as far as females go, she's a total follower, has zero strategy, and isn't even good at comps, despite being in the best physical shape in the house

    really empowering cast there CBS. 

    I agree on all but Dani.  I think that she's making some subversive moves.  She recognized Janelle as a massive target up front, and now she's gone.  For what it's worth, the knock on Dani is that she can go too hard too fast, so I think she's trying to pace herself.

    It is interesting to see Nicole F without a showmance.  She has a very logical and strategic mind, but her social game is really poor.  It's like the act she puts on for America doesn't hold up in person.

    Getting Janelle out this early is a big move.  The drama that fans like comes in the form of backdoors and suspense.  They were very methodical and straightforward about the Janelle eviction, but it doesn't mean that it wasn't a big move.

  4. I didn't watch the Memphis / Dan season, but I did watch the Ian / Dan season.  If memory serves, Ian was a huge underdog, and the coaches (Dan, Janelle, Britney, and Boogie) had a pretty distinct advantage.  Though Dan made maybe the greatest move in all of BB history (Dan's Funeral), Ian was very impressive and ruthless in his own right to win.  Production also favored Frank, so Ian had to contend with that threat as well.

    TLDR: Ian didn't steal anything from Dan, tied the record for HOH wins, and overcome huge odds to be a deserving winner.

    Who had the mole?  

    She was the mole.  But seriously, Keri Russell is the GOAT for me.  One of my favorite series of all time, which I put below Breaking Bad but ahead of the Wire.

    Please refrain from commenting while we determine whether or not there was an aggressive honk involved. Thank you.

    My factory model has a standard, passive-aggressive honk. The dealership said the aggressive honk was unavailable.

    And also, casual observers and even posters all over this site up until this morning have constantly equated “protesters” with “looters and arsonists”. To that end, the dickheads causing a lot of the damage know, CORRECTLY, that BLM and other Floyd protesters will be blamed by the public.

    Glad to see a glimmer of hope that we may change some of that perception with this new info.

    I agree. Many Americans are going to dismiss protesting, a core democratic right, because they are going to confuse it with rioting / looting, a crime. That’s the shame, and the result will not be that both “sides” find some common ground, but they will be further divided.

    Noted - Thank you.  Have two Visas and an AMEX.  Should I post the numbers here to see if they'll take them?

    Looks like my trip is a little ahead of yours. Give me the cards and I’ll make sure they work, then I’ll give them back before you go.

  9. I’m going to Tulemar in a couple of months. How’s the Wi-Fi for streaming Netflix and such?  Also, is the food at the restaurant onsite pretty good or did you leave the property or cook to get most food?

    I’ll hang up and listen.

    What is the deal with that La Hacienda place on 27th or thereabouts near Ella? It's a huge place in a hot neighborhood and it's been there a long time, but I have never, ever heard anybody talk about it. Tony's, Tecate, El Sombrero, and Alma Latina all have their fans, and I've been to all those places myself...But I've never been to La Hacienda and it's word of mouth is nil.

    I’ve read other opinions here, but I go to LH all the time and only once had bad service. They were slammed that night, so it’s was just forgetting some stuff we ordered. I normally comment on how friendly and accommodating the staff is. I’ve lived here for 12/13 years and only started going here a couple of years ago. The food is very Tex Mex and not spectacular, but it’s passable for a quick meal with the kids and wifey (no pics). 

  11. I've never seen such a widespread mandatory evacuation.  Most of my family lives within the evacuation zone, and I've invited them to my house.  Those spheres had active, spreading fire underneath them when my live feed cut off.  I'd appreciate if anyone would link a live feed when you see one.  My Click2Houston feed cut out.

    I blame the fucking Cowboys and Rangers.  Also, Bud Adams (may he burn in hell) fucked Houston quite a bit as well, which contributed to it.

    I also blame the short people and those who were not popular in high school. They give Houston a collective inferiority complex.

    We should all move to a well-draining mountain, assuming there is a decent petrochemical industry that can support 30% pay cuts.
