Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (Nothing but positivity)

It's beautiful. Much different than any other movie he made that's on the list.
It would be devastating given all that is riding on this season. We simply need to have plus quarterback play.
Really great subject on Eastwood movies. I am an old, so I grew up with all of them. Started with Eastwood as Rowdy Yates in the Rawhide TV series. Would change the order of a few and add one, but that's quibbling. Solid effort. I assume "Dirty Harry" stands for the series. I always thought Magnum Force was a great movie. I really look forward to the best Eastwood movie lines.
Josey Wales is the only Clint Eastwood movie that I watch every time it come on TV.
I‘d probably put Ewers #1 and Sark #2 in terms of personal points of interest for 2023, but the Sark storyline is fascinating. Superficially, there is so much to like about him. From the couch, he comes across as a very likable guy with a positive energy and truly elite offensive mind. And on a personal level, as someone who watched their mother battle and overcome alcoholism, I truly want Sark to succeed. But he has never done the thing. If he is going to get over the hump, this might be his best shot. Can’t wait to see how it plays out.
Great write up, as always Ketch!
I never understood that, especially when the player himself said 6 weeks ago at a national event that Texas and LSU were tied at the top and the interviewer said afterwards that he got the sense that Texas had the inside track.
I'm no technical expert by any means, but having followed the Cowboys with varying levels of intensity since I started third grade in 1961, that overall ranking of receivers seems reasonable to me. But Bob was my favorite--I first became aware of him in May 1963, when Sports Illustrated published an article about him featuring his pictured 25-yard splits in a 9.2-sec. 100-yard race. I remember those splits: 3.0 for the fist 25, followed by 2.2, 1.9, and 2.1. SI said that he was averaging 26.9 mph in that third 25. Note that that race, and maybe all of Bob's (certainly including those at the '64 Olympics in Tokyo), were run on cinder tracks.
Unforgiven is a great movie. Josie Wales is better. Casablanca is the only movie I can think of with more quotable lines.
Dirty Harry is just for the first installment of the series. The one where he takes down the Scorpion serial killer.
I love Bullet, but he can't rank above Mike Irvin, the heart and emotional soul of a dynasty.
Texas needs to sign elite transfers at TE and DT after the season for me to feel good about 2024.
Im really rooting for Neyor. That injury was devastating for him.

Surely, 47 years on this earth is enough time to get a handle on Clint's library or work.
Always enjoy these. That being said I prefer “Every Which Way But Loose” over “Any Which Way You Can.”
Another great line is in Coogan’s Bluff which is pretty good: Coogan : [while holding a broken bottle in Wonderful Digby's face] All right now, I don't like violence, Mr. Wonderful whatever your name is. You better drop that blade, or you won't believe what happens next, even while it's happening.
High Plains Drifter!!!!
And nobody said Firefox with good reason.

Judging from that photo (and what we saw at the spring game), Sark has a major challenge upcoming at the QB position. Good problem to have, no doubt, but it's going to require a high-level strategery and a deft touch.
I seriously didn’t know anyone preferred the sequel.
Beverly Deangelo, better fights/interactions with Black Widows, the Palomino Club as a home base for shit to go down, and Ma blowing away the Black Widows in the front yard. Not close in my opinion. Plus the theme song is better. We are supposed to like Lynne Halsey Taylor after the first one where she is a total b?
