  1. So many good quotes to chose, so much circular logic. This is my favorite part: "While those denials were plainly not accurate, Coach Meyer did not, in our view, deliberately lie." Wait...no, no. I like the line about being sure that if Urbs knew about the domestic violence, he would have fired Coach Smith on the spot. Uh, why? He didn't fire him at Florida when it happened, and he re-hired him at OSU. Why would he fire him now?
  2. And on top of that, the medicine he takes for his fake heart disease leads to fake memory loss. This guy has a rough life.
  3. I don't remember the last time I ate a hamburger that wasn't cooked outside on a grill.
  4. I have no idea why I've never looked him up before. He's by far my favorite color guy. I am now subscribed.
  5. There's one on the east side of I-35 in Round Rock. I know this because every time we drive to Dallas to visit the in-laws, I notice it and comment how amazed I am that place is still in business. And usually when I say this the parking lot is full. I've never been, but I assumed it was a poor man's Golden Corral, as sad as that sounds.
  6. Dude, get your head on a swivel. He'd make a terrible defender in any sport.
  7. If it weren't for the wife beating, this would be such an enjoyable off season story. "Aside from that, how did you like the play Mrs. Lincoln?" But McMurphy's absolute dick slap of Smith and OSU every step of the way should be a Harvard Case Study
  8. 1. I love McMurphy. I mean LOVE the guy. He's playing this to perfection. 2. I love the flat out lies by Lionel Hutz, and the circular logic. "You obtained those pictures illegally. Those aren't of my client, but you obtained them illegally". Uh, if they aren't your client, how the fuck do you know how I obtained them?
  9. You ain't lying'. I'm not sure I've ever seen that clip, and I couldn't help get tears in my eyes as I listened. I'm not sure I've ever had a voice move me to tears. Songs, yes. Lyrics, yes. But that voice...holy shit.
  10. Is one of those policies for the priests to not molest and rape children? That would be the first one on my list.
  11. Recent failures...lol, that's a good one. And they now have policies? Sounds like they have the problem under control.
  12. I find it bothersome that these coaches seem to think their responsibility in physical or sexual abuse allegations is to simply report it under "proper" protocol" and then go on with life. As if that absolves them of anything that happens in the future. My boss thinks it OK, so that makes it ok. Nevermind that I promote core values with "treat women with respect" as one of them.
  13. Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in early July, dead by the 22nd. Fuck me that's harsh.
  14. The "just the tip" and the dogs looking through the red fence got me pretty good.
  15. Anwar has zero inside information and very rarely has a telling point. The idea of people being "xxxx's guys" is pretty overrated. When Charlie purged "Mack's guys" and got "his guys" on the field, they sucked. In fact, "Mack's guys" during Charlie's first year were the best players we fielded for Charlie's entire tenure. Elliott wasn't very good when Charlie was coach. Was it an issue of just needing time to develop? Did he feel like he didn't need to work as hard since he was dating Charlie's daughter? I have no idea, but his development from year 2 to year 3 (Herman's first year) was striking. Also, I find it hard to believe Elliott and Malik were some sort of locker room cancers. The defense improved throughout the season last year, which is the opposite direction I would expect if 2 of the clear leaders were cancers. And Connor played in what, 3 games? He's not influencing much. And it's not like the team lacked effort. The OL lacked ability and our QB made some pretty dumb decisions in "win or lose" situations.

    Work Time Waster

    This is pretty solid advice. It's going to get really boring. Maybe day trading, although that can be risky. Or catch up on your reading list. I like Whitman's suggestions the best. Learn a language and take some classes online.
  17. Is 7 years really "retiring early"? That's way longer than the average NFL career, especially RBs. And like you said, he qualified for the pension after 4, and presumably he's still relatively healthy. I think he's retiring at the right time. If you wait until it starts to hurt before you retire, I'd say you retired too late.
  18. I'm not confused as to the cause of the cluster fuck. I had nothing to do with the decision. I was drafted to help with the cleanup.
  19. Went to Singapore for 2 weeks during a disastrous SAP transition about 15 years ago. Lived at the warehouse from 7am-10pm every day. For lunch, I ate with the warehouse workers who got a non-descript rice, veggie, chicken/pork/shrimp lunch everyday. It was glorious. All of the Americans traveling with me insisted on McDonalds. Mc-fucking-Donalds. Had one of the warehouse managers tell me on the first day that they didn't buy enough of the rice lunches for me, so I handed him a S$100 bill and said I would need him to include me in his lunch purchase every day I was there. That ended up being a fun trip. The days sucked, but I would leave work and hang out at one of the all-night hawker villages for a couple of hours drinking Tiger beer, eating local food. and people watching. 5-6 hours of sleep every night, followed by a long day at the warehouse, and a few peaceful hours by myself at the hawkers stand with my Tiger, satay, gai lon, and murtabak. Rinse, wash, repeat.
  20. I don't know if I've seen that point written. It was understood, but the way you wrote it makes one just shake their head.
  21. I don't think they ever actually got divorced. The $1.2mm doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Aside from his 10+ years being the star of his own TV shows, he's written like 10 books. He's been famous for a long time. I know he's stated he's terrible with money and didn't save anything until his mid-40's, but that was more than 15 years ago. I wonder if he has been putting money away in a family trust, or in his daughter's name, or something that isn't visible when he dies because it's not his money to distribute.
  22. I don't function in the morning without a bowl of cereal with berries on top and a glass of OJ. In the summer, nothing beats a 50/50 mix of Wheat Chex and plain Life, topped with blueberries and a ripe peach. I prefer 1% milk with it. Other times I like Frosted mini-wheats, topped with whatever berries are in season. And lots of them.
