Texas BBQ
Here's a hot take - Texas Monthly should expand the list to 100 and do a top-10 and top-50, but not rank them. I feel like we're at the point where the difference between #1 and #20 is probably insignificant and a matter of preference rather than objective superiority. For instance, Moreno BBQ didn't make the top-50. I go there because it's right down the street from me. And it's fucking excellent. And there's almost never a wait of more than 20 minutes. I'm positive there are not 50 bbq places better than Moreno. Selfishly, I'm a little happy they didn't make it because I will be able to continue to get top-tier bbq a few miles from my house with almost zero wait. But another part of me wished they'd made the list so Bo Moreno could make some money off of it.

I don't give a shit what they think. Texas got beat twice by a team that played better. I'm not going to invent excuses retroactively about how UTSA was better than their ranking and should never have been placed in the same bracket as the number 2 overall seed. Because that's what those dorks would do.

Bitching about recruiting, specifically about 5-stars committing to USC early in the cycle, is fucking retarded.

I know this for sure - the Big 10 doesn't deserve 4 automatic bids. Fuck a bunch of that. Penn State would be guaranteed a playoff spot every year. We don't need to watch Penn State get pantsed in the playoffs every year.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen

Sure. Now do football. The football team didn't integrate till 1970. We were the last all-white national championship team. As a fan of Texas football, there are many accomplishment I'm proud of. Integration and racial equality in the post-civil rights era isn't on that list. Now, Texas wasn't alone. Most of the major programs in the south didn't integrate until the late 60s or early 70s, with LSU and Georgia being the last teams in the SEC to integrate in 1972/1973. So at least we're not Georgia and LSU. But still. This isn't our strongest argument.- Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread

Do you think his offer from the Ags is still good? That t-shirt tells everyone's he's contracted the woke mind virus.- "It's a dog-eat-dog-world and I'm wearing Milk Bone underwear" -- RIP, Norm
George Wendt was a big fan of the Replacements, and really a lot of indie/alternative/punk bands. See the post above of him at a show in a Billy Bragg t shirt. For Replacements super-fans, there's a pretty cool documentary called "Color me Obsessed" that interviews fans, other musicians from the Minneapolis scene, roadies, etc. None of the Replacements are in it. But it's still very good. Anyway, they interview George Wendt and he said he always sort of thought "Here Comes a Regular" was inspired by Norm's Cheers character. That's probably not exactly the case, but Norm is the quintessential "regular" so regardless, it fits.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2027: I remember watching his dad play

They're completely incapable of saying "damn. we got beat." There's always a conspiracy, but it's only identified retroactively after the loss.- Sinners - Coogler, Goransson, and Michael B Jordan
Saw it a few nights ago. It was...... goodish? Maybe I'm just not into vampire musicals? The first half of the film was really good. Then came the vampires and the songs. All of the songs. They were good songs too! But it was all a little much and felt kinda corny (especially the vampire white-devil jig scene. Huge eyeroll there). I was disappointed, but I know I had my hopes up too much. Like the idea. Didn't love the execution.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2027: I remember watching his dad play

I don't need a fucking commission to know that Cody Campbell wants to retain enough NIL flexibility to allow Tech to be more competitive than the SMUs and the Baylors of the world, but also limit how much Texas (and to a lesser degree A&M) can spend. What a shit show.- 2025 ACL
