The Texans are 9-1, but that has far more to do with Wade Phillips and Rick Smith (the GM) than it does with the head coaching ability of Gary Kubiak.

(Kubiak is an excellent “offensive coordinator” but he is simply not a leader of men. I’m terrified this will burn the Texans in the AFC Championship Game.)

Cohen Bros are great, but I didnt think Big Lebowski was very good. It has Flea in it FFS. It’s ok, but not worthy of all the worship it gets IMO.

I’ve always liked how Maude says “Yes, and proud we are of all of them.” Her cadence is hysterically upper class considering she’s wearing nothing but a robe at the time.

We have friends who have never seen it. Rather than defriend them, we decided that will be the first outdoor movie of the Spring.

Well, WWoS, there’s movies and then there’s The Big Lebowski.

I really wanted to say “He fixed the cable” and wanted to be sure. And I’m terrible at movies. I don’t know movies, who was in them, or remember any of the plot. I’ve been to a movie theater three times in the last four years.

I knew I shouldn’t have hesitated to double check the wording.

You had to check the wording? What kind of movie fan are you?

Had the Lions not had such and itchy trigger finger with the greatest coach in their history, they’d be even higher on that list.

Dirt wasn’t it on that return that Cleveland got helped by a miscalled Personal Foul on Dallas? The defender grabbed the returner by the hair (perfectly legal) but they called it a horse collar…or was that a different play?

I don’t really think Kubiak lacks killer instinct as much as he just gets ultra-conservative when nursing a lead.

that’s a good way to lose a lot of games. In the Dallas game this weekend, after they goal line stood the Browns, they got the ball at the 1, and ran 3 straight belly plays, to exchange for timeouts by the Browns. So they kicked back to the Browns (while up 4), having run less than 10 seconds of game clock, and making zero attempt at getting a game winning first down. And, they didn’t even give the punter his normal drop.

you can probably guess what happened next.

just scanning and deciding Goofus or Gallant.

Better than “MAD”… how the hell do you decide Spy or Spy???

Sorry Dirt. You’re right.

I didn’t mean to sound so rude. I usually mean to sound as rude as I sound, but in this instance, I’d like to back off a bit.

p.s. I almost never read the posts, unless they’re Liskian in origin, and shorter than 12000 words, and my eyes don’t glaze over at the first set of numbers.

Also, I’ll usually read a CoRMY joint, but that’s usually on the Highlights magazine level, so not exactly reading, just scanning and deciding Goofus or Gallant.

I completely give them a pass for the Jacksonville game (any give Sunday, Thursday game, etc), but the emergence of a second good WR would do wonders for that team.

Preaching to the choir.
