Can't make a fresh start without buying a new journal! Might be some bad juju (which I'm sure is a valid therapeutic term) in those old ones…

Well that was a helluva ride!

Uh … can we talk about the gold pants Rogie is wearing there?

And the #Sooners are #playoff bound!

Not playoff bound? #Texas #USC (and #LincolnRiley )

So sorry, Jess

#LincolnRiley is now 6-13 versus ranked opponents at #USC with zero playoff appearances in 4 years at Troy. With an $11.5 million salary, he's the 3rd highest paid coach in college football…

Brent Venables, his replacement at OU, is 9-7 versus ranked opponents and 1 win away from the playoff…

1. It's A Wonderful Life (only in b/w)
2. Scrooged
3. A Christmas Story
4. A Charlie Brown Christmas
5. Tie: A Very Murray Christmas and Love Actually (sappy and romantic, but so well made and sharply written)

Important statistic: @ou-football.bsky.social is now 2-0 on the road vs ranked opponents when that guy from Mustang, OK goes to the game via his boat… #Sooners #Boomer

I was gonna guess mac/cheese and curly fries, but wasn't sure on the meat…

I'd be there if I wasn't literally 2000 miles away…

Haven't seen it in years, but iirc, there was an attempt to show we're all the same with a redemption story arc throw in at the end, but all that was lost/missed in the awful depictions and overtly racist theme…

Ah that sounds more familiar.

But at least I remembered two of the three component words! That recall percentage is all I can ask for at my age and brain function level…

Didn't you have an egg nog recipe in the FanIQ days?
September 24, 2025 at 3:53 PM
A buddy of mine would have a morning Irish Coffee Christmas party every year and invite all his friends and clients. One guy used to show up with a gallon of homemade egg nog and it was unreal. I don't recall getting too much done in the afternoon after than event every year…

We put salted caramel Crown Royal in our egg nog and it is sooo good. But we try not to start to early so we’re not completely sick of it by December 5th!

1. The NFL kickoff rule he calls "new" began last season.
2. Who would know more about football than the guy who ran the USFL into bankruptcy? However, he did win his $1.7 billion antitrust suit against the NFL and was awarded … $3.00 (unfortunately, the NFL did not pay it off in pennies)

Mike Gundy went 3-9 in 2024 and is being paid $6.75m in 2025. Just gonna leave this here…

Condemned Phil Knight's NIL money while overlooking the fact that Pickens financed his own program (and his salary) for years. Ironic, huh?

You, and your long-time disdain for him, were the fist thing I thought about when he started talking last night…

Personally, I still prefer the arched USA (circa 1980) but no complaints at all with this look…

I think a balloon would do it, especially if he was told it was made of gold…

Easy! Don’t give a bad name to train set owners!
