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

You're too young Ketch, I was an Eastwood fan when he was Rowdy Yates on Rawhide. The Eiger Sanction is definitely a top 10 for me, I've watched it more the Unforgiven, which is great, too.
 
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.
I love Bullet, but he can't rank above Mike Irvin, the heart and emotional soul of a dynasty.

I'm 47. lol
 
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.

I don't know where the tight end comes from.
 
Always enjoy these. That being said I prefer “Every Which Way But Loose” over “Any Which Way You Can.”
 
That would be a fun list. Let me think about it.
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.
 
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.
 
Oh, I need to hear the explanation behind this one.

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?

That's why he gets paid the big bucks. ;)
 
Ketch, I don’t remember where you estimated this class would end up a couple of months ago? 10ish? Where is your head now on where we end up?

Beverly Deangelo, better fights/interactions with Black Widows, and the Palomino as a home base for shit to go down. Gramma 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 Sondra Locke after the first one?

Ok,

First and foremost, Jack Wilson is better foe for the main fight in the movie than Tank Murdock. Better Ma Boggs scenes, including her getting laid! I kind of like the Black Widows being a joke the entire movie and then coming up big at the end. The final scene with the Widows and Eastwood is a classic. I like the mob being included. The Philo/Jack Wilson fight at the end is the best fight in either movie.

As Roger Ebert said, "Where else, in the space of 115 minutes, can you find a country & western road picture with two fights, a bald motorcycle gang, the Mafia, a love story, a pickup truck, a tow truck, Fats Domino, a foul-mouthed octogenarian, an oversexed orangutan and a contest for the bare knuckle championship of the world?

I have yet to see Unforgiven. Shame on me. I will look for it on one of the sites.

A horrible list

Where is “buzzards gotta eat, same as the worms”

Any knowledge why Baker doesn’t seem to be entertaining USC at all? Seems weird the way they spend and seeing as they’re in the backyard that he’s still wanting to travel half way across the country

Fair. I feel like the fight with Jack Wilson drags out too long. I like him throwing the fight against Tank Murdock. He doesn’t want want everyone coming after him but could easily beat his ass. Beating up the guy on the lake who stalks him the entire movie is great. I just love all the Black Widow/Philo stuff in the original. Orville finishes his pie while Clint goes outside with the Black Widows.

To be clear I would watch either one right now. Clint is a badass.
