- Yesterday I had lunch and dinner with two different guy friends, and not once did we talk about Johnny Manziel or training camp.
- Hard Knocks had a lot of TCU love last night. It started with Andy Dalton and then with a shot of Amon Carter Stadium. Brett, I’m sure Mrs Brett liked that.
- That James Harrison sure doesn’t like the Hard Knocks camera, I think he’s just focused on winning instead of gimmicks.
- Hard Knocks dropped a few points in my book when they played Maroon Five music during hitting drills.
- Sometimes it’s true that professional football players don’t play with the heart and passion as those in the college game, but if you watched the last five minutes of Hard Knocks, you would have saw Larry Black trying to make the team and then breaking his leg and dislocating his ankle. His emotion was heart-breakingly raw.
- With former President George W. Bush being a local guy and Kidd Kraddick dying of a heart attack, I wonder if Kidd’s death encouraged Bush to get a check up. He has always appeared to be very health cautious, but I curious to know if the event kicked anything into gear.
- Check out the Google Street View of this Emirates plane, now that’s flying in style.
- Yup, that’s our governor, and the glasses didn’t even make him look any smarter – Perry mistakenly tells conservative crowd he’s in Florida when in Louisiana
- I saw a LifeProTip the other day saying that when you pick someone up at the airport and don’t plan on getting out of your car, ask them to meet you in Departures instead of Arrivals as it will be less crowded.
- As humans we’ll sometimes do something wrong we did in our youth and think about it for the rest of our lives, I wonder if any animals do the same.

- These two paragraphs about Mike Snyder sound depressing to me, like he’s a man with an inflated ego just living in the past with no where to go. Read the full thing here. EDIT: This is totally a parody. I skimmed the article late last night and and wasn’t in sound mind when I posted it. Or that I’m just dumb. OK, I’m dumb.
It’s 8 a.m. and Mike Snyder is in a suit and tie. It’s a habit he can’t shake, even though he doesn’t really need it anymore. He wakes up at 6, and goes through his workout routine — 10 pushups, 10 sit-ups, and, every other day, 10 jumping jacks. Then the former NBC Channel 5 anchor showers, eats a sleeve of mini-powdered donuts, and gets suited up. It’s his battle armor.
“Why would I hide behind Barry or Brandon or Wes Mantooth for something like this? Zac, I’m Mike Snyder. Do you know what that name means in this city? Hell, in all of North Texas? I was one-half of JAM*. I mean, I wanted people to know that Mike Snyder had a problem with the Nasher. That was the whole point!” He slaps his particle board desk for emphasis. The screen of the Toshiba laptop shakes. “I’m sorry, but really? Come on. It doesn’t make any sense. Maybe Scott Murray would do something like that, but not me.”
*I love that brick phone Jane is carrying in that video.
That Mike Snyder article was a parody, wasn't it?
Dude, you are totally right. I only skimmed through part of the article late and night and didn't even take into consideration it was parody because I already think he's so full of himself. I should have tipped off by his exercise routine followed by the donuts.
That Mike Snyder bit was hilarious and spot on.
Pretty sure Rick Perry decided not to run to prevent further embarrassment after his flaws were exposed during his failed Presidential bid. This helps support my theory.
What is the context of that picture? Do you know or did you just randomly find it? I'm intrigued.
I randomly found it a while ago and stuck it in a folder or items to use later. Here's a story about it: http://jacksonville.com/news/georgia/2013-02-05/s…
