  1. If that's Gerry's bigger point then he's really really dumb. Bags at historical shithole cheater programs aren't going to compete against legitimate NIL deals at the legitimately funded powerhouse schools. I guess they can compete against each other for the dregs but that's not going to impact legitimate and legal programs like Texas.
  2. The idea of "tampering" is laughable. These kids have agents, and their agents are doing what they're supposed to be doing-- shopping their clients for better deals. It is highly unlikely Texas was the only school in discussions with his agent. If we were, then he should fire his agent.
  3. Congealed salads aren't a Texas thing. You can hate on them freely but they were around all over the country. They gained in popularity during the Depression as a way to stretch food and re-use leftovers.
  4. No kidding. For high potential schools, revenue sharing will come from the school's earnings from operations and not directly from the large donors. NIL is still legal and always will be, if anything the regulations could become even less strict over time, as more athletes challenge rules that infringe on their rights and restrict them from earning in the exact same way their college counterparts who are not athletes are able to earn. You've already mentioned many times that the idea of some clearinghouse "leveling the playing field" is a foolish dream of the have-nots, and I agree with that as well. There will be no salary cap. Legally, there can't be. Potentially it puts the have-nots in an even worse position, having to tap their resources to help cover the revenue sharing rather than preserving those funds for NIL.
  5. Yup, the one on Burnet, a couple blocks from where I grew up and where my parents still live. My folks sometimes even took the candy out of the chip basket so we wouldn't try to consume it all before we'd finished dinner.
  6. We already have a shitty opinions thread, do we really need another one?
  7. Yeah you just beat me to it. I was gonna say-- need to put the taco sauce on there!
  8. It's never going to rain again.
  9. Just started season 7 last night. Man was Common People dark. I loved it but also hated it.
  10. Agree. Oscar in the faster car has a good chance to build a lead if he's out in front with clean air. Anyway, grand prix podium for Ferrari, molto bello.
  11. I too have interviewed people for 30 years. He's a douchebag. You're welcome for my expertise.

    Tex Mex

    Any way you can force a switch to EyM or El Nuevo Mexico? They're both just right down the street, so close you can almost taste them...

    Tex Mex

    Good Lord, for some reason my parents like to eat there so I'm occasionally forced to meet them there. I've tried everything I thought might be acceptable on that menu, and none of it ever is. I'm pretty sure I just drink margaritas and maybe eat a nacho? I definitely make them pay. Good Luck We're All Counting On You.gif
  14. Part of the commentating is asking those questions. What a douche.
  15. Yup. They can call it a player safety issue if they like.

  17. I had to look up WTF a "Kygo" is. So, a Norwegian DJ and Garth Brooks... I mean, I don't care one way or the other, I'm there for the race every year so for me the concerts are a freebie. Some have been great, some have sucked, but they're all free to me so I don't worry about it. Still... a Norwegian DJ??
  18. Yeah no kidding. I've been wearing boots and pearl snaps for 40 years myself. I guess I'm flattered that the young tech bros want to look as cool as I do.
  19. I can't even imagine the chaos in your mind at that time. The more I've seen of pictures like overhead shots of the damage, and your video, the less I can believe you and your family got away as well as you did. I'm truly sorry about your property losses, that's going to suck to deal with, for a good long while. But wow, I know you just have to feel luckier every day, that things didn't turn out worse. It's already been said on this thread, but surly is here for you if you need anything.
  20. Hickory and pecan are closely related and I like both of them for pork and fowl. For beef nothing beats oak. I will direct grill over mesquite but the only way I'll BBQ with it, is if it's been burned down to coals beforehand. The absolute best BBQ I've ever had, was on a scout trip to Mexico where we were staying on the grounds of a massive hacienda belonging to a major benefactor to Boy Scouts of Mexico. One afternoon we dug two trenches, burned mesquite down to coals in one, shoveled them over to the other, where we were roasting several whole goat kid on spits. That was the most unbelievable cabrito I've ever tasted.
  21. I'm a fan of this idea, make it so.
