re: Under $2 gas this week?

Damn. How does that happen as I wouldn’t expect it in Colorado.


There is a major refinery here that processes local and Canadian crude.

Will see if it survives long term, but so far oil and gas are coexisting with wacko politics. They want to kill it, but so far only restricting future growth.

Some places are already under $2


Been under $2 here in Colorado since before Christmas, at Sams and Costco though. Paid $1.77 this week, was $1.86 before.

The fact that they were only challenged once all season (and lost) just shows how terrible the Big 12 is.


To be fair, their starting QB missed that game, but this is bad and reflect poorly on them.
This actually feels like when Beck throws a pick.

re: Horrific holding call vs OSU

They called the wrong number, there was a clear holding penalty by 75 against 11.
Baker isn't grabbing facemasks. Some bad calls, but some were legit.

Plant based proteins may have concerning levels of lead. There have been a number of studies released this year on it. Of course, spices and other foods we eat every day do too.

I prefer to try and limit possible bad stuff if I can. I would Go with eggs and meat.
Was there last year between Christmas and New Year. It was great, lots of people, but never felt over crowded. Had a really good time there.

Went to Gatlinburg for a day and felt over crowded, but still had a good time.

Lots in that area.

This board can be an echo chamber. LG front load W/D going on 8 years with no hint if a problem.

Kitchenaid appliances in the kitchen for same, replaced a Bosch dishwasher and the Kitchenaid runs circles around it.

How do you know this?

OSU beat Texas beat A&M. This is stupid rose colored glasses.

Makes sense as he is likely closer to the defensive staff and they are all still there and DC is now the head coach.
Weren't the offers supposed to be the same? If so it isn't money, it is what Saban said yesterday.

We don't really know and time will tell if it works out.

it really doesn’t matter as recruiting is more impacted by portal and NIL money.


I don't know, I think players are going to get very similar $$$$ offers from programs that need their skills. I think there will be two key factors that can make the difference - is the team competing for the championship next year and do I like the people recruiting me.

Probably listen to this guy since he seems dialed in on the type of shooting you want to do. I was just aware of an option in your price range, daughter is the one who knows photography.

My daughter is a sports photographer for a small college and loves her Canon R6. She has the mark ii which is on sale because the mark iii just released. $2000 vs $2800.

ETA: price is body only, you should also be able to get a lens for the mark ii under your budget.

re: Blake Baker Haters, Turn Away Now

We can't score points in an offensive era of the game and the O is too inconsistent.

D was good enough to make the playoffs.
Wife has a 22 MDX. Love it and no issues yet at 40K miles.

We looked at the others and were underwhelmed for the price differences.
