    Know your history who blocked the extra point 

    hint #25

    Roger Mitchell. Can still speak along word for word with Gary and Gusty radio call I’ve listened to it so many times. Was in FL and a young child at the time but that game and that radio call (played over and over on a 45 ) are a huge part of my childhood

    I looked it up.   She says the "the coin ain't got no say, it's just you" and he replies "I got here the same way the coin did."   The screen goes dark and next scene is him walking out the front door and checking the soles of both boots for blood.

    Fabulous movie. I’m a big Cormac McCarthy fan (RIP CM) and have read most of his books multiple times (yes, I have a dark side lol but love great writing). When I heard that “No Country… “ was being made into a movie I just thought “No way they can do that book justice on the screen”. But, man the Coen bros took a great book and made an incredible movie out of it that far exceeded my expectations. Now if someone could do that with “Blood Meridian”….

    Nice. What are y'all charging for that in the store if I can ask? I miss the days when I bought Weller 12 for $35 but those days aint coming back

    Well, we all know how Kirby likes his long con games with our commitments. This could be another George Pickens in the making. The biggest thing is this is one kid and while we would be happy to have him, if we do not get him, it will not be the end of Auburn football.

    The only thing that is important at this point is making the right coaching hire.  Everything else will fall into place after that.

    Kirby’s days of doing this are coming to an end. He loved doing it to beta Gus especially but those kinds of stunts are about to be history.

    13/31: The Silence of the Lambs (1991)

    I’ve seen this movie like 2 times in my entire life. With the way movies and television have been going, this is moving away from horror and into the realm of standard thriller/crime drama. 

     

     

    I think that SOTL is one of the greatest movies of all time; what Anthony Hopkins was able to accomplish with his limited screen time…..well, there’s a reason he won the Oscar for best actor that year. I think this is a great Halloween-ish movie (I know I’m late to the game); if you can do subtitles the Swedish version is better than the US, last 5-10 minutes make the movie IMO.

    I freaking LOVE Ten Fidy. Great stout. 
     

    Cheers! I’m taking it easy tonight. A double IPA or three on the front porch.

    Yeah as good as that glow in the dark brew is it can't quite compete with Ten Fidy. Not much can in a stout category. 

    Cheers to you. Enjoy!

    Damn you both. Now I have to go find some Ten Fidy tomorrow. I trend to sours and IPAs in warmer weather and have totally lost track of beer time. I love stouts as the weather cools. I really miss Yeti since Great Divide stopped their distribution here

    Based on HS stats.  They never developed much past that. 

    Highly ranked classes that were rarely developed or retained that never adequately addressed team roster needs was the trademark of Gus' recruiting 

    Man, I hate to involve myself in yet another Gus argument but….honestly the highly ranked classes were such a mirage. Highly ranked mostly because of skill players, weak in the trenches. The poor development and utilization, especially of some highly ranked WRs, is the prime example. And, many of those highly ranked players were “athletes” that never really found a position. Ricardo Louis I think could have been a really good safety but ended up a mediocre WR- just one example I can think of off of the top of my head

    Are we looking to hire this man?  Dye would have said he is more than 3 axe handles.

    Dye on Charlie Weis, 'His ass is as wide three ax handles. Sitting on the cooler while the defense is out there.'

     

    Lol. I remember that game. That’s when I knew I was from the Dye era because I had texted my brothers when they showed Charlie sitting on the cooler of the UF sidelines: “Look at that fat tub of s*** sitting on a cooler while his players are out there playing”. Not charitable I know but that image wasn’t very flattering for ol’ CW
