Depends on the barrel. There are barrels that are over 135 and they didn’t. Concentrate the alcohol. All depends on how it’s made stored. Age matters too. I don’t trust anyone from total wine.

$70 with tax and shipping. 100% would be doing this for the bottle given it’s a 2 year whiskey.

Penix career also won’t last as long because it won’t start for at least three more years. 

It’s interesting to me that…

It’s interesting to me that KOC liked the fact JJ threw it on a line to Johnson in the highlight from the Minnesota game they grabbed. I remember that play and thinking if JJ had put air under it it could have been a touchdown. As I’m not an NFL head coach, perhaps throwing on a line was the right move then?

No. I can’t remember the timeline exactly, but it was closed soon after I became of drinking age. Charley’s and Scorekeepers were the usual haunts. Dollar pitcher and soco limes S’keepers on Thursdays. 100% avoided Friday classes.

So a lock for Kentucky. Got it. 

Edit: posted this before reading through other comments. This is becoming a sad and frequent joke. 

Perfect season. Perfect…

Perfect season. Perfect recap. We would have overlapped in school (class of 04). I didn’t have the early years as I didn’t grow up in Michigan, but my wife and I met in school and have shared our fandom for over 20 years.  Your piece resonates with me in many ways. Excellent.

Nice. Looking forward to getting to know this offense. The D is already so familiar. 

Highly recommend Minnesota…

Highly recommend Minnesota. Not so much Minneapolis proper. Choose a suburb. Minneapolis and St. Paul are improving, but they are not yet what they were pre-Covid. Plus, the school systems are all much better in the suburbs (some are outstanding and almost all are top notch). Housing can get to over a million if you are hell bent on top notch areas and new builds, but I’ll say there are tons of options in the 600-900k range in great areas.

Well, we did close the gap quite a bit in the last game of the year. They had a 23 point lead heading into that game.

They are convinced one person, and only one person, is responsible for the “somehow we’re 3-0”.  Delusional.

Bummer.  Maybe he's just threatening to leave to get more NIL?  Wouldn't be surprised if these kids are learning this valuable corporate world skillset.

Looking to buy 4 Washington away game tickets. Need 300 priority points per the email that came out today, and I’m a few shy of that unfortunately. 

I thought the “schools that…

I thought the “schools that don’t cooperate do better” thing was kind of put to bed as bogus fan fiction. Most schools really do cooperate. Read the Tennessee punishment and it’s clear that it’s a pretty sever punishment and they also are noted for cooperating. Yet many say they didn’t really get punished and that’s because they didn’t cooperate.

"Tennessee's cooperation throughout the investigation and processing of this case was exemplary by any measure," the panel said.

Love the book. The 1994 is tolerable if you go into it knowing it was a made for tv series, at least in my opinion. Have you read the Dark Tower series?  Highly recommend.

So what will OSU's excuse be in 2024?

Also, didn't anybody think about the number of jobs at risk?  This is at least three staffers waving placards / wearing funny colored shirts who are no longer needed.

Pats are a freaking mess…

Pats are a freaking mess right now. I hope for JJs sake the pats listen to their fans because I don’t want JJ to go there. 

Another issue right now is…

Another issue right now is short sightedness. All the writers and pundits are going to treat any rookie QB that doesn’t have a CJ Stroud type season as a bust. Maybe Caleb and Maye will get a “give him a year or two” treatment, but the others, should they go high, won’t. And the reason is exactly like another poster said: negativity generates clicks.

I think JJ has a ton of…

I think JJ has a ton of upside, but I do think it’s a risk going top 10. But that’s also true of any draft pick ever. I’ve seen worse piling on than these takes. And they are still saying first round. If they said late rounds (like after Penix), then I’d be more pitchfork-y.

But also cannot hit the broadside of NCAA hypocrisy, which is to say he couldn't put it into Sagitarrius-A* if he tried.

No, because we won a national championship. The way I see it we didn’t make any administrative mistakes this year. 

Right, but it does mean that…

Right, but it does mean that, of the five individuals, there are some who are still on staff who get a show cause.  It seems that more details are coming out that this really doesn't mean anything, which is all I was trying to understand,

Then this is very poorly…

Then this is very poorly written by the NCAA, which I guess is good.  The way its written insinuates some still on staff personnel also have a show cause and I thought show causes were not very easy to overcome.  In other words, I read this as there could be one-year suspension of on staff coaches.

But 100% not comparable. …

But 100% not comparable.  Everyone knew that Tebow's best traits for the college game didn't translate to the NFL.  JJ's best traits 100% translate.  He just lacks the mega high volume of the other top QB candidates.

Reports are saying charges…

Reports are saying charges pending toxicology. It was 3am. Fingers crossed he just worked late and was tired. 

But the fact he’s been suspended indefinitely is not a good sign that my hopes will be realized.

Correct, no NOA on signs.  NOA received in December was related to burger incident.

If this were true, why would there not be significant movement to the portal as well?

 

edit: I guess the spring portal isn’t open yet, but you’d still hear rumblings for sure of impending doom.

Ironically there could be a lot of gold and maroon that aren’t BC fans hating on us, similar to your 97 experience.

A few points:

  1. Sounds like Sanderson was looking for a change anyway.  Clearly not happy with how things were going with Juwan in charge.
  2. Glad we seem to be upping our game for NIL management with football and hope that carries over to basketball soon too.  Agree, May will need it.
  3. Juwan tried to do too much.
  4. Onward.
