  1. Interesting and welcome update. Thanks for sharing! Mangino was a unique (often comical) character who made the league more entertaining. Glad to see him in better health and apparently doing well.
  2. Sounds like a Jackie Treehorn production. Those days are gone, my friend. Besides, the pizza never gets delivered and the cable never gets fixed.
  3. So they're opening up a bunch of Starbucks in Russia?
  4. Put $5K on the game's outcome, then it won't be meaningless.
  5. Cowboys' offensive line isn't as bad as the Giants' ... but it's trending that way. Parsons seems off the past three weeks. Think he's injured and probably needs to take some time off. Not worth sacrificing long-term career for whatever this season is going to become. (Whatever that is, it won't be good, imo.)
  6. Does @futureman really qualify as a "crowd?"
  7. Bragging on his ostentatious wealth is not why @ChiTownDoc sucks. Nor is the fact he's a Sooner. Nor the fact that he gets a bit smug after yet another win for OU over Texas in Dallas (cuz who wouldn't be smug?). No, the reason ChiTown sucks is cuz he hasn't hooked me up with Angie Varona.

    Bit of a deflection. Still, can't score if you don't shoot.
  9. If I'm a neutral observer, my takeaway is this was an excellent football game between fierce rivals who also have very good teams. Though the higher-ranked team had more talent and was favored, the underdog made fewer mistakes (turnovers, penalties, etc.) and that was ultimately the difference. So that neutral observer is compelled to tip his cap to the Sooners for being the better team. However, the lifelong Longhorn in me says, "Fuck OU, those lucky fucking fucks!" and hopes for a chance to pay the Land Thieves back in spades come December.

    Though the ball didn't go exactly where Puli meant it to, that first touch was ... And that was NOT an easy pass to handle. Finish was almost as excellent. What a play! USA USA USA! LoL
  11. This game is NUTS. But very entertaining.
  12. They call 'em blow sneks 'round these parts. Basically a bull snek.

    Scally apparently saved the day for Borussia Monchengladbach with a Wunderschlag against Mainz. Couldn't find a reverse angle, unfortunately.
  14. Only bad thing about this interview is having to listen to that talking turd Cowherd between Colt's comments. Anyway, much ❤️ for Colt. Consummate pro, team player, hard worker, leader. He's earned everything that's come to him.

    USMNT 2023

    Three of my favorite to ever don a USMNT kit--Matt Turner, Charlie Davies, and Clint Motherfuckin' Dempsey. Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
  16. Fuck your life, I need that in my belly!
  17. Holocaust pantries are big business in this part of the country (Intermountain West, i.e., Idaho, Utah, Nevada, the Palouse, etc.). Some of it stems from the prepper movement, but most of it originates from the area's predominant religion. It's not uncommon to encounter giant tubs of all sorts of freeze-dried shit in just about every grocery store around here. And then there are the case-lot sales in which people buy grosses of questionable canned goods (e.g., Nalley "chili") and such at a time.
  18. Disagree. Very, very few QBs can operate behind patchwork OLs for extended periods. Montana, Aikman, Manning (both but especially Peyton) and even Brady the Goat could not. However, Rodgers did for a large part of his career until it ultimately ruined him (imo) as he became a "checkdown Charlie." Same for Russell Wilson--few handled pressure better but we all see what he's become now that he's no longer quite as mobile. I don't think Daniel Jones is very good, but it's impossible to judge him objectively because he has absolutely nothing in front of him for blocking. He is a surprisingly graceful runner but that's obviously not enough.
