    Greatest "B" side recordings ever

    For you youngsters who have no idea what a B side is, it refers to the song on the flip side of a 45 record. The A side is the song being released in the hopes it's a hit. The B side is usually mostly filler, just so it's not a blank space. Here's my nominee. It became this group's only No. 1 hit.

    Most annoying ritual in sports

    When did it become a thing to trot around in the dugout with a trident or a samurai helmet or, gawd forbid, a powdered wig after you hit a home run? It has to be one of the silliest, newest, most annoying rituals in sports, right up there with the log chains, axes, title belts defenders run and...

    Raylan Givens is back

    Watched the first two episodes of the reboot of Justified that debuted last night. IMO, they were just as good as the original series. Timothy Oliphant is older and grayer, but still just as bad ass. it was my favorite TV show for a long time and I was sad to see it go, but I'm glad it's back.

    Prey

    So I signed up for a free Hulu trial specifically so I could watch the movie Prey, which is billed as a predator prequel set in the 1700s. From what I was able to learn, it follows a Cherokee tribe and a girl in that tribe who is also a warrior as she tries to protect the tribe from the predator...

    I didn't survive Bear Grylls

    I tried watching "I Survived Bear Grylls" last night for the first time and I only lasted 10 minutes before I switched channels in disgust. Grylls has finally succeeded in turning the survival genre of reality TV into a clown circus. It was just totally unwatchable. I've enjoyed other Grylls...

    CCR revival?

    So I was just perusing the iTunes Top 100 and what do I see. Not one, not two, not three, but FOUR, count 'em FOUR, CCR songs in the top 100, all originally released in 1968. They included "Have You Ever Seen The Rain," No. 8; "Bad Moon Rising," No. 30; "Fortunate Son," No. 35; and "Down on the...

    Need help

    I bought something in an online auction about a month before Christmas. It was from a reputable auction house in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The item I bought was in an auction with about 1500 lots. They have these auctions at least once a week and sometimes more. I still have not received the...

    Texas Tech

    I was reading Stansbury's Tech preview and he mentioned two players that I thought for sure were unlikely to play due to injuries, according to a tweet I saw that said three players might miss the game. The two Stanz mentioned are Pop Isaacs and Daniel Batcho. The third player from the tweet was...

    La Brea

    I'm about ready to throw in the towel on this turd. It's the second season of the show and I know it was a weird show to begin with, but it's just gotten even weirder and hard to follow. We've got different people from our group scattered over different centuries with no idea where they are or...

    DBs who transfered from Iowa State

    I think all the DBs who transferred from Iowa State are starting for their new teams except for one and he's the backup. Starters include Kym'mani King at Florida A&M, Virdel Edwards at Hawaii, Isheem Young at Ole Miss and Jordyn Morgan at UNLV. The only nonstarter is Craig McDonald at Auburn...

    Breakout player

    I'm surprised none of the "experts" picked Hunter Dekkers for their breakout player. I think for our season to be even moderately successful, a breakout by Dekkers is absolutely necessary. He's the obvious pick for me. If he breaks out in a major way, the season could even be more than...

    *** Tuesday at the movies ***

    I'm thinking of starting a new weekly thread called Tuesday at the movies, depending on how well this first one goes over. So let's start. What is your favorite Nicole Kidman movie? I was thinking about this yesterday when I was sitting in the movie theater and I actually couldn't name a...

    Ordinary Joe

    I tried watching this. I missed it when it first came out, but they had a repeat of the first episode tonight. I thought it was a different premise, and I gave it 15 minutes, but I just couldn't get into it. For one thing, I'm not into TV shows that don't have some kind of resolution every...

    Hulu/Fear the Walking Dead question

    I've been seriously thinking of binge watch Fear the Walking Dead. I haven't seen any of the episodes. I don't know if it's possible to binge watch all 6 seasons during a weeklong free trial on Hulu or if it's even worth the effort. Obviously, I don't already have Hulu, but I haven't used my...

    Resident Alien

    Anybody watching this new series on the Sy-Fy channel. The pilot was on Friday night. It looks interesting so far, but I don't know how long they can sustain my interest. I wish they would have picked a different actor to play the alien. Not very impressed with him.

    Grass fed vs. Corn fed beef

    I've seen a lot of discussion on this topic of late and even watched a video by some butcher brothers comparing the two. Nearly everyone seems to think grass fed beef is the best, even the two butcher brothers, who said grass fed beef has a stronger beef taste than corn fed, whatever that means...

    10 most irreplaceable Cyclones

    I gotta say, I disagree with Stanz's inclusion of Chase Allen on that list. I'm a huge Chase Allen fan, but I think you ignored your own selection process when you said you were going by production and depth at the position. TE is one of the deepest positions on the team and Campbell himself has...

    Is this the start of the zombie apocalypse?

    I would not put it past the Chinese government to introduce a new virus to its citizens in order to "thin the herd." https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/20/world/asia/coronavirus-china-symptoms.html
