  1. It's really going to be interesting to see how this plays out.  My gut feeling is that Slick will not only come out unscathed but will end up being portrayed and seen as the victim while giving him a platform to push the "I stand for what is right" diatribe thus propelling his popularity with voters.  I am not a Perry fan but I do believe that this indictment was politically driven and done so by the same hounds that exposed Palin and Christie and under the circumstances may end up backfiring! 
  2. Great show!!  The Falcons are the right team for the show this year!
  3. Holy cow, how do you know Pookie and RayRay??  I graduated with those guys back in the early 90's!! 
  4. I agree with most of this and own a couple tactical rifles including an AR-15, however it is my opinion that for home protection a person is much better served purchasing a tactical shotgun/riot gun.  A short shotgun loaded with 5-7 rounds of buckshot.  You don't have to be nearly as accurate and in most home invasions wihtin a few shots it's over.
  5. Robin Williams will be missed.  He was a comedic genius.  May he rest in peace.
  6. Here's a fact for you, 99.9% of everything written or spewed from mouths is opinion (even writings from your favorite resource wikipedia).  The Holy Bible and websters dictionary are the only two writings that I know to be absolute, but according to agnostics, athiests, muslims, hindus, and believers of other religions that is just my opinion.
  7. Betcha I can jump all the way over this ball!
  8. And for my next trick I will attempt to lay perfectly still and plank on this man's knee while he tap dances!
  9. This team is the opposite of the Texans, if the Cowboys are successful this season it will be on the heels of the offense.  They are going to have to score high every game.  The defense will give up a lot of points with all the missing pieces!
  10. If Foster is not healthy they will struggle to win 6 games.  The defense is absolutely going to have to carry this team.  QB position will be less than average and without Foster you have a very inexperienced backfield.  Also, I'm not sure AJ's heart is as into it as the years before and I'm afraid this will show.  I honestly believe that it could be an 8+ win season but that will hinge on whether or not Foster and Cushing can play the entire season.
  11. This is possibly the best and most factual post ever made on SETXsports.com!!  Great post coach!
  12. Mexican cornbread cooked in a dutch oven on my back porch............. Very good!  Click on the picture for larger size.     [attachment=78:013.JPG]
  13. On the Grill..................   Bacon wrapped Chicken Breasts:   1.  Cut chicken breasts in half (down the seam) 2.  Season with Tex Joy BBQ season and garlic powder 3.  Wrap breast halves with thick cut bacon using toothpicks to hold in place  (chicken takes a litte longer to cook so thin slice bacon will burn before the chicken is done) 4.  Insert jalapeno slices between the bacon and chicken 5.  Cook on grill at 275 for 45 minutes.  Dont overcook or cook to hot the chicken breasts, they will dry out quick.   Very easy/simple, but very good.
  14. I have used the montreal season blends and I do like them, but if you get the opportunity and want a little change of pace try the Fiesta Brand Uncle Chris' Gourment Steak season.  You may still prefer the montreal but I know that you will be suprised.
  15. Got the idea from the best BBQ in Texas thread.............. What are some of your favorite things put on the smoker or grill............. Favorite season/rub? Favorite BBQ sauce? I am a simple guy that cooks simple, I have stuffed and smoked pork loins, chicken breasts, and other things but afterwards I always find out that sides are made for the side not for covering up the taste of the meat your smoking or grilling IMO.... I'll start with grilling and Ribeye's....... 1. Choose a good cut (I prefer 1 inch thick) with plenty of marbling. 2. Let your steaks warm to room temp before cooking. 3. Get your grill hot... I cook ribeys at atleast 400 degrees (this is important) 4. Place steaks directly over the heat and cook for 4 minutes per side. You should get a dark caramalization on the outside and a medium rare inside. 5. Remove the steaks from the grill and let stand for 5 minutes before serving......... Everyone season's their steaks to their liking and there are many, many ways to do so. You can never go wrong with a little sea salt, cracked pepper, and a little garlic powder this is probably the most popular blend of steak season and it really allows for the steak to be the main flavor with subtle garlic, salt, and pepper accents. I would however encourage you to go by your local brookshire brothers and go to the Fiesta brand season rack and get the Fiesta Brand "Uncle Chris' Gourmet Steak Season". It is absolutley the best commercial steak season that I have ever tried. It is a really great blend that doesnt over power the beef flavor of the steak. If you try this make sure to use  liberally and I promise you will not be disappointed. Will post more later.......
  16. While I love Rayburn and actually live within half a mile of that lake, Toledo Bend is on FIRE right now.  TB is producing some really good numbers and big fish.  It is definatley the lake to fish in East Texas!  Good luck!
  17. Just curious to see if anybody from SETXSPORTS was fishing this tournament or attending the festivities? It is hosted on Lake Sam Rayburn at the Humphrey Family Pavilion April 25th-27th. It is the worlds largest amatuer bass tournament with the world's largest payout. There is a guaranteed payout of over $1 Million dollars. One fish alone (the largest of the tournament) will be worth over a quarter of a million dollars. If you're not familiar with this tournament it is not a stringer tournament where you weigh in 5 fish for the heaviest 5 fish weight, it is a big bass tournament. One fish will make money! Each day at the tournament weigh in site there will be FREE live concerts featuring country music artists Josh Turner, Chris Young, and more. I'm going, it will be much fun!
  18. If they have the opportunity to land Mallet and Clowney, they had better jump on it ASAP!  I feel 100% certain that there is NOT a QB in this years draft worth giving up a chance at both Mallet and Clowney!
  19. Jeremy Jenkins is gonna hurt some folks this year and not only on defense!!
  20. [quote name="H-D BOBCAT 55" post="1422092" timestamp="1375884298"] [quote author=SAWolverine link=topic=113133.msg1422063#msg1422063 date=1375853101] [quote author=89falcon link=topic=113133.msg1422012#msg1422012 date=1375836341] Kountze, Deweyville, Groveton are certain losses. But based on the typical HD schedule they should get their normal 7-3 season and complimentary 1st round/game exit. [/quote] Deweyville and Groveton are losses for sure.  Of course they make they playoffs in that crackerjack district they are in.  Early exit. [/quote]San Augustine I hope we run into your soft team this season, HD will attack yall like a Lion on a wounded deer. Gonna suck having a losing season in a new stadium. Pray yall don't meet the HD Bobcats this season. [b]Oh and if HD moved to your district, they would make the playoffs there every year.  [/b] ;) ;D  HD Nation! [/quote]I have no hate or ill will for HD, but surely you are kidding, right?  HD would struggle every year in 10-1A, it's a different beast than what yall are used to!! 
  21. Better bump Falls City up about 5 spots if the rumors are true!!
