[quote]PJ Fleck +1500 [/quote] WHY? I would say PJ is one loss away from being fired. He has lost any momentum he had a few years ago, just lost to a 2 win Purdue team and a down Illinois team. Will get a pass when he loses to tOSU, but if he loses to a down Wisconsin he should be gone. He’s a great...

Who are our receivers next year?

No Nabors or Thomas. Lacey?...
You mean the SKOL chant that Peyton was mocking right before the Minnesota Miracle? He’s the one they really hate up here, so now that he’s gone it shouldn’t be too bad. I’m going and will be wearing my Brees jersey. This isn’t Philly so unless something really goes haywire there won’t be any troub...
I’m guessing it’s your first time. Can’t speak for Boston, but for NYC buy the city pass. It will have all the “must see” attractions at a discount. Do a couple of walking tours too (might be on the pass as well). We did Meat Packing District, Financial District, and one other. It was great to hear ...

I imagine their players need to go through the same background vetting that other pledges do. The talk to your neighbors, your grade school teachers, all your relatives, …. You don’t get in unless you are spotless. Those young men just also happen to be football players. I wonder what their highest ...

re: Tulane people really do suck.

Back in the day (early 70’s) our scout troop would always be at Tulane stadium as seating ushers in the visitor section. For the LSU game I remember a guy that had some kind of tiger costume on and he would pull out his 12 inch “greenie weenie”. I’m pretty sure it was just stuffed green fabric…...

Mission accomplished! Had a great a weekend and got to 4 places. Deep Ellum, Braindead, Bitter Sisters, and Unlawful Assembly. Got adventurous and tried some variety IPA’s at Braindead and Deep Ellum, wasn’t exactly happy with the choices,,,but that’s the fun of craft breweries. Those were both good...

Thanks all! With 2 suggestions each I think it will be Deep Ellum and Braindead. Deep Ellum the area itself was just becoming a thing when I lived in Big D in 86 and 87. Glad t see it is still a thing!...

Any recommendations? Doesn't need to be full restaurant, but serving light food, or typically with a food truck would be good....
I follow a travel vlog couple that did the Inca Quarry Trail. They said it is different than the Inca trail. They posted a 3 part vlog of their trek. Here is a link, but if it doesn't work just go to Flying the Nest and search Machu Picchu. [link=(https://flyingthenest.tv/tag/machu-picchu/)]Flyin...

Castle Sant Angelo. Not a hidden gem, but it wasn't on our radar and we thoroughly enjoyed walking through it. As with all of the major sites, get the guided tour audio (and remember your own earbuds.)...

France Next June

16 days. 1 week in Paris to do all of the things you are supposed to do in Paris including a day trip to Versailles. Then heading west to Normandy and the WWII pilgrimage planning to stay in Bayeux. Figure the WWII beaches and cemetery will be a full day and will sneak in the tapestry. Is a day t...

Pearl Street is a good afternoon stroll. Lot’s of interesting shops, bars, and restaurants. I assume you will have a car, so if you are into brewery’s drive the hour up I-25 to Fort Collins and visit New Belgium (Fat Tire) and O’Dell’s. You may need to make a reservation for a tour of New Belgium...
Acme at the end of Broadway. Great restaurant on the first floor, beer options other than bud, lite, or coors longnecks. Upstairs has nice lounge type bars, not honky tanks....
Besides my seconding of the Zucca recommendation, we also dined at Bar Pontini! Glad you knew the name, because I had forgotten it (2 years ago now). And, yes I also enjoyed the squid pasta. My other advice for Venice: Forget trying to follow directions on your phone. Download a good compass app ...
