Rude

the guys who try to make it as coaches or scouts at 22 get some menial grad assistant job in college and work 18 hours a day studying football. I never had the dedication to care about a 40 hour a week job much less dedicate my existence to something. McVey sleeps like 3 hours a day and is in his office by 3-4am daily. His hot wife sees him an hour a day during the season. (Google her). on that note, Kentucky goes to ole miss today. Let’s see if our 1st round QB and defense can perform.

He def was going to be huge regardless but as I looked back through this thread I see lots of dead songs posted. I think many wouldn’t have checked out just a bluegrass song but a dead one will get a click. There’s a much bigger crossover at Billy with deadheads than the other big bluegrass bands. Of course now it doesn’t matter what Billy plays but I know meili went to see him in Nashville hoping Bobby was gonna play and she got it.

Omg I’m in an argument in a text thread with friends. I said Billy got big fast b/c their dead tunes went viral and deadheads flocked to him. They are trying to say he’d have gotten just as big without ever playing a dead song. No way. Playing dead is how he exploded then he played with Billy and Bobby. I went to see him at a tiny venue in 2018 b/c of the dead and many others there were the same way.

In 2016 Tony Romo broke his collarbone in the last preseason game which forced Dak into the starting position as a rookie. During preseason Dak lit it up throwing for over 80% completion rate but that was preseason. Dak comes in and loses game 1 to the Giants who had a really good defense. Then we roll off 11 straight wins which was most in franchise history. Romo never saw the field again besides a few snaps in a mop up role. The reason Dak won the job wasn’t that we just won 11 straight. He had 10 of 11 games in that stretch over 100 passer rating throwing 19tds yo only 2 ints plus he had 6 rushing TDs and countless big scrambles on 3rd and long. 3 games that rookie year he had the highest QBR for the week and finished 3rd in QBR for the year. What’s funny is these commenters that hate Dak want to compare us sneaking out 2 wins with the backup to the 2016 performance of Dak. These guys go real quiet when Dak plays great but hundreds come out when we lose. Romo was hurt in 2015 as Dallas went 4-12. Then with Dak the next year we went 13-3. Dak has his warts like most QBs but teams like The Bears have been in QB hell for a decade with constant flops like Trubisky and Fields. In 2016, Dallas tried to draft Paxton Lynch but Denver got him and we got lucky with Dak in round 4. In 2014 Jerry tried to draft Johnny Manziel but per an insider who posts, a few execs threatened to quit if Jerry overruled the 4 person rule where 4 execs have to sign off on a player to draft him. So Jerry didn’t get his guy thank god. There’s the other issue that we’ve converted so much of Daks salary to signing bonus to kick the money down the road that he’s almost assured of getting a contract extension after 2024 or we will eat 30 mil of dead money that’s already on the books for the 2 extra void years of his contract that teams use to kick the can.

I participate in the Dallas cowboys SB nation blog. It’s pretty disgusting. There’s so many people who have hated Dak from day 1 that with week 1’ playing bad before the line gave up a broken thumb and the backup winning 2 straight, these people want him replaced. What’s funny is the whole blog wanted us to sign a better backup than cooper rush but with 2 straight wins they are like get rid of Dak. The 6 year backup has been cut by us and the giants in his career and still hasn’t posted a 100 passer rating game even though Dak had 10 last year which was 2nd behind Aaron Rodgers. Gotta assume the Texas racists don’t like a black guy as the face of the team.

His son is one ugly human being. He’s a billionaire but he’s the football version of Harvey Weinstein looks wise. If Harvey looked like Brad Pitt, no girl is calling the cops on him. Not being sexist but I doubt he gets rejected much especially if he tried to date up and coming actresses.

Do you think they will play terrapin tonight? Dude it’s a 1969 show. So are you saying we may get one?

If they were doing 2 shows we’d have been there. That’s a fun outdoor spot

I had that experience in Boulder. Had a great group of friends we were with in a wide open area and we were all feeling great. I’ve seen like 15 Deadco shows and always hope for that perfect Boulder weekend. Alas.

that’s a great description. You have hope then it’s dashed. It’s hard for me to let go of the way I know it can’ be played. . I let go at JRAD just fine. Love their take. Maybe it’s just the tempo.

i decided to deadbase it and playin was played every single show from 3-22-72 to 8-13-72. So yep definitely batting 1.000

I assume the very loud swearing was between songs or setbreak lol. Swearing wouldn’t help us know who you were around our crew b/c the F bomb isn’t a bomb at all but an adjective, adverb, verb and noun depending, but it’s used in most sentences if speaking properly. cheers

Deadco announced they are hanging it up and TBD dates summer 2023 will be their final tour. RIP slow dead music. Can you imagine if there’s a Deadco tribute band? Please no. But… if you are a smart young entrepreneur musician there could be a market of people who like their dead really slow and want to sit during what are supposed to be fast songs. If nothing else it can only help DSO to get back doing real tours not JRAD style 2-3 day weekend runs. Lol it’s not like I can hit the road for a week anyway now, but in a few years it’s on.

So sorry bro

day before thanksgiving 10 hours away will never be on the docket for us.

thought you were doing this run. You do everything.

There is a recording b/c Cotter records the shows. Maybe set him up with a fabulous carriage ride in Paris or surprise him with some Paris high fashion. Cotter is really in to French fashion and custom tailored Italian leather skinny jeans. I’d say you could for sure get a tape if you got him into the Vatican library for him to finish his Da Vinci code research he’s been toiling on for the better part of 2 decades. He’s so close!!

that’s been 50% of dso tour the last year. You’ve had way more than your share. Cheers Do the Milwaukee shows. It’s the best crowd. Amazing energy. Great place to see shows. It’s become my favorite place to see shows for the amazing crowd energy. Barraco thought people were going to fall over the balcony everyone was dancing so hard. The riverside or the Pabst are great spots. Do those. We are flying to Chicago and taking the train to Milwaukee. We decided to do the next weekend with flight to chicago then St. Louis then a 3 hour bus home lol. Can fly Paducah to Chicago but not St. Louis and I hate driving to Chicago so that’s the plan

Several ties to app state on the board. 1 Alum plus a parent of a freshman at app state.

I’d be in for Chicago if they added a Thursday show the night before. I hope that there will be shows added to this schedule. It seems strange there wouldn’t be any show for 5 days between Milwaukee and Chicago and Chicago could sell out 2 shows. The Vic could be in use but there are so many Chicago venues. I’d really hate to miss the Chicago 25th anniversary show though. i bet a ton of peeps will come in for the 25th anniversary show but it’s a 1 off show. Hmm

Lots of 3 day weekend setups. Maybe that’s where the band is at these days. Im looking at Milwaukee as it’s my fav place to see dso. Those guys up there are nuts. Also will do the St. Louis Saturday. If there were 2 nights at the Vic we’d do it. Wish they would add a Thursday before. There’s a shot at the National but man that venue sucks. It is so ridiculously oversold you can’t move anywhere on the floor and they harass you upstairs for dancing unless behind a seat.

so John cougar is still putting down 5 packs a day? That’s a crazy habit. Even if you’re dosed up and chain smoking, 5 packs is nutty.

Kentuckys defense looked solid against Florida. We’ve had 4 DL guys drafted over the last few years so I didn’t expect us to smother Florida like that at Florida. steve sarkisian turned Texas around quickly. That defense looked great. Jimbo fisher only had the number 1 recruiting class plus another couple top 5 ones and he can’t do crap. He’s a horrible coach. A&M bought the best players there were to buy and the giant killer app state still took them down.

National period of mourning will still be ongoing when DSO is there. How can you celebrate during a period of mourning. Luckily it’s not the Royal Albert hall or it wouldn’t happen. If the show does goes on. It wouldn’t be cool to dance night 1, but you have 8 more nights of shows. It would be tacky to dance during the mourning period of the death of the longest ruling monarch in english history and the 2nd longest ruling monarch in the history of the world. Head bobbing may be acceptable
