Pouring one out for the oldest Taco Tico today… #RIP

EDIT: Apparently one still remaining on MOW/Pimlico. I’ll have to traverse the whole city to get my Sancho fix.

Some of these places just truly make no sense.

Speaking of which, a brand new Rax opened two years ago (per wiki).

'97 would have made it 3 in a row, which is iconic in the sports world.

'15 would have gave us 40-0. Also iconic, not just another championship.

Add those to our resume and it would nearly be untouchable.

'92 I'm aware we probably don't beat Indiana and/Michigan afterwards. Pitino said it himself. Losing that and the way we did probably made it more iconic for college basketball as a whole but still stings a lot. Had we won but then got blown out in the final four could have dampened our memory on that game.

Theoretically

So we're just assuming that if we won in 97 we would have still won in 98?

Well we are assuming if we beat Duke then we probably lose in the final four. So yeah.

You are making it too complicated. I used to assume we would win every game.

I'm just saying, IF IT PLAYED OUT THAT WAY, that's how it would be perceived. Thus the "theoritcally" at the end mister wayne

 

[WynnDuffy]

Your sense of logic is f**ked, thabigbluenation.

Anyone bitching about 97 needs the pear of anguish. Greatest decade we’ll probably ever experience. Won the year before, won the year after, lost in between in the champ in OT.

- Edit: I’m excited that 4Roses single barrel off the shelf is good again. The ten years or so in between when I was able to buy every iteration of their recipe in barrel strength at TPS, and now, was pretty bad. By their standards, at least, which are far better than most. Always been my favorite distillery and whiskey.

- like many of you, I love these new Toyota platforms, on paper at least. Between the cost and the natural issues, happy to wait a few years. 2010 4Runner Trail Edition and 2015 Sequoia Platinum going as strong as ever. Over 150K on each. Never had the first issue, other than normal wear and tear. Solid as brick shithouses. These vehicles will live on for many decades by those who appreciate true bulletproofness.

- 4th and 6th graders both have their first junior football games kickoff tomorrow. Can’t wait. I bring a flask to the stands every game. My boys are absolute monsters. Both played on both lines, offense, defense and ST, every snap last year of every game. Except for one series each. The younger one was once puking when it was really hot, the older one had gotten kicked out for shoving a quarterback’s face into the dirt and then holding it there with his knee.

- Today I think a plurality of my office decided to fire all the old guys, pay them out, and then get along with our business. The problem is we were all very drunk at a bar and I’m not sure a corporate secretary was appointed to duly record the actions of this convening.

- Florida State - Georgia Tech at noon tomorrow. That works. Going to be a great Saturday.

- Really, really excited for Southern Miss to be a night game - what an unexpected gift. With my boys playing football every Saturday, our attendance is limited anymore to Labor Day Weekend and whatever home games we have in November. So happy they will get to experience a game in pleasant weather without the sun scorching the skin off of their faces, as happened last Labor Day Saturday. Or sleet as we lose to Vanderbilt couple years ago. Thanks, Mark! Prick.

- In reference to this one 40-something slut who is divorced and wears absurd clothing around the office…my fat gay colleague from Northeastern Kentucky mentioned today, “hell, she just sold the farm!” I’m not sure what that even means, but it was in reference to her crescent moon in a sheer thong, so I get the drift. Going to use that line in reference to every slut I see now.

- And there's some nights I just wanna die

Then comes morning and the light from that blue sky

- But I can't see the sunshine through the thunder in my eyes

You might want to go back and watch the game. Miles Simon made as many FTs as we shot and there were a lot of touchy calls.

Turner had 2 in the first half and sat, then got his 3rd right away in the 2nd half and sat some more.

That said Arizonas strategy on him was very successful and Dickerson really played fantastic defense on Mercer.

We coulda woulda shoulda but we lost it. I rewatched it today and now I’m watching the whole 98 run with the kids.

I am flat out Huber giddy over Pope and this coming season and they wanted to know why. A stroll down memory lane is in order.

 

[WynnDuffy]

I get all that, brah. My point is, hindsight is 20-20, and don’t be an ingrate bitch.

Harsh! Misunderstand the context of the content you have. Forgiven you are

 

[WynnDuffy]

That is kind of you. It appears perhaps I was mistaken? I can’t even see straight now tho, so I shall reserve.

I ate way more Rax than I care to admit back in the late 90s. It was pretty solid back then. Best baked potato and salad bar in the fast food game at that time. They still have one in Harlan.

This conversation turned you to only seeing gay then? Apologies on the transformation.
Paddock will request pics tho

 

[Kooky Kats]

I always thought Rax was a front for a heroin ring.

I'm going to need to see JDrum's fast food power rankings from 1996-2001 before I believe this.

Poo-poo’ing Rutledge’s juice? Insane.

One of the best bottles I’ve had was a Party Source gold neck OBSO pick of theirs from the late aughts.

I'll tell you a kids' spectator sport that is freaking awesome: cross country.

• Show up an hour before the race.
• Sit under a tent in a lawn chair and enjoy being outdoors (and some scenery)
• Watch your kid run for somewhere between 10 and 25 minutes depending on the length of the race
• Go home

Absolutely fantastic.

The other part I like about it is the speed of of some of the kids. My son is in the 3rd and 2nd grade division. The dude who won his race (1 mile) finished in 6:03. That's freaking moving for a 3rd grader.

 

[catsfanbgky]

Nah, I can of a million things more exciting than watching a bunch of snotty nose kids running thru the woods, watching grass grow would be very close. And I have a 6 year old grandson. CC, if he was to take it up, just tell me how it went when you get home. I am NOT wasting a fall day sitting under a GD tent doing nothing. Maybe sitting in a lawn chair fishing and drinking a beer, but watch kids run ? Nope. So show up an hour early to watch 15 minutes of running ? WTF do you do for a hour waiting ? Can you bet on the runners ? Maybe look the runners over like horses in the Paddock, that might be fun betting on Little Johnnie to win.

You are just mad because they are all taller than you.

I know you are a big 4Roses guy, but he left in 2015 and “their” juice is the same if not better.

What is you give him credit for besides his change in marketing plan for the brand when they shifted to American sales vs overseas?

Did he role out the 8 different grain single barrel strategy?

 

[Kooky Kats]

Joe Tessitore insists upon himself.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Well that was a good start to the season.

 

[Irish Beck]

Just give the acc slot in the playoff to the sec at this point.

You're an old, loathsome fart, so I'm not even sure why I'm responding to you. But I just described that I was there for a total of 1 hour and 15 minutes.

 

[WayneDougan]

There were 5 plays over the course of 15 minutes at the end of that game. Why college football can't just adopt the NFL clock / timeout rules is beyond me.

And sometimes you have to drive an hour to watch them run for 15 minutes 🤦🏻‍♂️

That wasn't a very nice thing to say to your elder. Having said that, you spent about 1 hour and 14 minutes too long there. A person can do a LOT more exciting things on a Saturday with 1 hour and 15 minutes. Say, maybe a game of one on one with neighbors ?
