Wonka mix is funny.

I did about as poorly as I expected last week. Maybe this week will be better

Cal... spread is too huge to pick the Mighty Ducks
Texas... although I think I swore to pick against anyone in the state of Texas for the whole season... oh well
Hokies... picking the Fighting Gobblers has been a bad choice every time I've done it, but I'm still sticking with us AND with LT3. I just wish I'd bought that "I <3 LT" shirt when I was at Lake Tahoe. For serious, I'll take him trucking TYVM

I am worried about the interior of our line, that's one thing I thought about a lot in the summer before Luther aka Uncle Luke showed up and then Marshall started playing on the inside very well.

Oregon
Texas
VT - Big bounce back
LSU - You can't pick against the honey badger. That kid is so badass
Auburn
Nebraska -Bo Pelini will try to extract revenge on a OSU team that's looking horrible

Oregon
Hook 'Em Horns
Team Logan Thomas (It was one game guys, give him an effing break...)
Tyrann Mathieu is an Animal
Arkansas
Nebraska

'specially doubles, New Glarus (from New Glarus, Wisconsin) makes a helluva IIPA, it's called Thumb Print and it's fairly new. Had some last time I was in Madison; damn. Makes me sad coming back here to Virginia, where the beer is only okay. No wonder there's so much moonshine around here.

I've heard of Alchemist, it's pretty well regarded.

Anyway:

Oregon
Texas
VT
LSU
Arkansas
Nebraska

These will make no sense to me but im seeing red today and going off emotion. Bad way to pick but here goes:

DUCKS -- Play EMMMILLLLIIIOO clips from the Mighty Ducks in the locker room all week. quack, quACK, QUACK!
HOOK EM' -- cant spell OverratUd w/o OU. Spelling was intentional.
Gobble Gobble Bitches -- Muck Fiami. I hate these bandwagon fuck heads.
Geaux Tigers -- Mathieu for Heisman
War Eagle -- Points, points, pernts, pints.
CornHuskers -- If that guy can rip a towel dispenser off the wall i'm sure he can find a helmet or two.

Beer: LOL Bourbon. It'll be that kind of weekend and its only wednesday.

The point spreads this week are insane.

Oregon - for the record, I had a hell of a time deciding this and will be seriously peeved if I'm wrong.
Oklahoma - every single one of my picks involving a school in Texas has been wrong, so I'm picking the opposite of my gut feeling here.
Hokies - they built that roundabout on Main St to make it easier for us to TURN THE FUCKING BUS AROUND.
LSU - the only things I left Tennessee with are a law degree, a southern accent while drunk, and a healthy hatred of Florida.
Auburn - expecting a close game.
Braskypants - running train on the poster child for compliance.

Cal
Sooners
Miami - ugh
LSU -even if the spread was -30
Arkansas
Cornshuckers at home

Considering it's my last weekend in Colorado AND in the Army, I'm fuggin pouring it on with the CO beers.

Cal
OU
Hokies
Geaux Tigers
Auburn
Huskers

The ducksters win
Okies will carve up bevo
VT-surely we can't lay another egg this week, can we?
LSU-my brother-in-law-gator-fan would hate me for this, but the reptilians are too banged up
Arkansas, and I have no idea why
Nebraska, only because OSU has a coach named Fickell.....I mean, really?.....Fickell??

He gives us the best chance to win when he's on the field. He needs some help from a consistent gameplan and a pocket to stand in.

Oregon to win and cover
Oklahoma to win and cover
Virginia Tech to win and cover
LSU to win and cover
Arkansas to win, Auburn will cover
Nebraska to win and cover

maybe i'm headed for my first 1-5 week, but i like where your head's at for most of these

QUACKATTACK (i won on cal last year. i see no chance in hell of that happening again)
HOOKEM (way too many point for a redriver. way, way, way, way).
HOKIES (i generally don't like this spread, but methinks the powers that be (vegas) know something. they won't lose big underdog money twice)
LSU (too big, too fast, too mad hatter, too many lots of things for this UF team, including too $EC)
OUR-KANSAS (solid game last week, while auburn took an emotional one from the ball coach. goodnight, auburn)
HUSKERS (if they don't win big here, expect bo to eat both TMART and their offensive coordinator alive)

He showed us nothing last week, what a pathetic, embarrassing performance.

Well said, this is the game I have circled every year. This is leave the women and children at home, in your face, dogfight every single year.

I agree with alot of the stuff alot of you said. In the end though our offense needs to get back to smashmouth football with a lil playaction pass and some offtackle mixed in with it, keep working that clock. I also once heard beamerball was having your best players on the field for special teams and with all due respect to Demler, that isnt him. I think our defense has played very good overall considering how long they been forced to be on the feild. Our coaching staff needs to pick it up a notch and some of our boys need to wake up and quit going through the motions. Overall though we are young and have to expect some lumps along the way.

I think I'm going to attempt this Thursday but am I allowed to add sriracha? I love that stuff.

Next step: finding fresh fish in Colorado...

Involving the meat of the American White Ibis (Obscure?).

But, arrrrrgh- canned stuffed for your pico de gallo? No, no. No, sir. I'm appalled. You Hokies and your undiscerning taste buds; I shouldn't be surprised! Maybe it was living in West Texas that made me so adamant about it, but with pico de gallo, you need the freshest vegetables you can get your hands on. A side note; pico de gallo is Spanish for "rooster's beak", a name it picked up because if you eat pico de gallo the way it was meant to be eaten- by itself, using only your thumb and index finger (still a darn good way to enjoy it)- the grasping motion used to pick it up resembles a rooster's pecking beak.

Anyway, where was I? Right. Freshest vegetables, and you need to make sure to cut pretty good-sized chunks, so they'll stay on your chips, scrambled eggs, or whatever else you want to put 'em on (such as fish tacos, as it were).

Here's my recipe:

2-3 ripe tomatoes
1/2 Large white onion, diced
3 fresh, medium jalapenos (though serrano peppers can work, too), seeded and diced
1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro
Salt/spice, to taste

If you've got a get together, you can easy double or triple the recipe. Keep in mind, though, it doesn't keep long- it is be best if you prepare it the day you're going to use it. Feel free to expand on this, too- some people find red onions are more to their taste than white ones; I added a little Food Lion parmesan cheese, oregano, and garlic once on a whim for use on an omelette, and it was delicious. Best of all, you can eat as much as you want because it's almost completely fat and calorie free (as long as you don't pull a Homer Simpson).

Otherwise, your recipe looks good. I'll remember it when we play at da U at the end of the month. Maybe we can knock Jacory Harris right the fark out again.
