If there is ever a TKP gif Hall of Fame (and there should be), this and the Emma Watson shoulder roll/lip lick should be the first inductees.
Then the wheels fell off.
You aren't wrong, but I'm still amazed that our wheels falling off never resulted in an overall losing record in any season.
16-0.
Don't know how we manage to win more games than we actually play. Don't care.
ALL ABOARD, MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!
Fucking fuckity fuck.
The Belk Bowl was one of the oddest games I've ever seen. Have we ever played in another game that was only two quarters long?

McMillian's career has been an enigma. Flashes of brilliance afloat in a sea of mediocrity. I'm still not certain if he's a good back held down by an eviscerated O line, or a competent back utilized to perfection on rare occasions.
Purely speculation on my part, but I honestly think Bud never took another job because he wanted to be Frank's successor. Now he won't take another job because he thinks he can win a natty under Fuente.
Got his first RBI in the majors. Nicely done.
I'm bummed to see the Schwarbarian get sent down to the minors after his World Series heroics, but I'm always pumped to see a Hokie get a shot.
Are we talking strictly photography? No video editing? Then my advice is go with a Windows 10 system. Mac has earned the reputation of being the editing system, and with video editing that is mostly accurate. But Mac's reputation as being a superior photo editing system is unfounded. Photoshop and Lightroom on a good Windows 10 system is equivalent to the same programs on Mac. (Source: my wife, who runs a photography business on a side project.)
I'd advise going no lower than an Intel Core i5 processor, and if it's in your budget, a Core i7. And if your budget allows (and most people's don't), I cannot stress this enough, get a Microsoft Surface Pro. It is an amazing system, and the pen is fantastic for editing.
We're making the state of North Carolina feel how the SEC made us feel for years.
Literally nothing about this makes sense. Setting aside the previous owner's obvious mental illness, it's a 2,500 square foot house with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom? Who builds a house that way?
Good. After the way their fans acted after we flipped Dylan Rivers, trying to claim Rivers was suddenly not a take and that's the only way they'd lose a commit to us, I hope we consistently best the shit out of them in recruiting.
Ever play the drinking game? Every time someone says "man," drink.
You'll be dead of alcohol poisoning by the end of the scene at the Emporium.
Saw this on Twitter. Unfortunately somebody was cutting onions at the time.
1999 was pretty memorable.
It just won best small batch bourbon in the 11 years and older category at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. You got your hands on some seriously good shit.
My advice is the same as with any exceptional bourbon: crack the bottle open immediately and have a dram. That way, you get to see for yourself if you like it (the only critic that matters), and you won't wring your hands over finding the "right" time to open it. Then, put it away and bring it out when you want to commemorate a special occasion.
Congrats on your score.
I suggest we make Hokie Fireman the new mod, on the condition that he publicly proclaims the superiority of Chipotle over Moe's.

Reviving this thread to say I was gifted a bottle of Jefferson's Ocean, and holy shit is it a good bourbon. It's also the strangest bourbon I've ever had. A high rye that only tastes like high rye on the finish. Aroma is dark chocolate and dark fruit, and the flavor follows the nose until the end, when oak, rye and brine washes all the sweetness away. It drinks hot, reminiscent of Knob Creek, but I found a half teaspoon of water opens it up nicely.
First Jefferson's product I've had. I'll be trying more.
If ABI is really spending money lobbying to restrict craft brewing regulations at the local level, they are really pissing their money away. There's never been a friendlier time for craft breweries as far as state laws are concerned.
Ah! Okay, if we're talking micro vs macro (and everything under the umbrella of ABI is macro) I'll support the little guys when given the opportunity.
In my mind:
Craft brewery: a brewery that develops beer recipes that created new twists on traditional styles, with an emphasis on flavor and quality rather than drinkability and appeal to the widest possible audience
Microbrewery: a small, independently owned and operated brewery
Slye will get right. He was automatic last year from the distances he missed tonight. He didn't forget how to kick mid range field goals. Just had a bad night.
