for the patio alone. That includes professional installation, lifetime warranty, a few added switches/timers, etc -- just seems way off idk.I'd rather pay the $ to have it done right, but something just feels off. Would appreciate recs (text or email) for other quotes from some of you contractors (or opinions on this estimate)

krazykats must keep a file on PTI(pti), that was quite impressive quick recall. :joy: I had to *really* think about the earrings line. :clap:
:joy::joy::joy:
I love this site

-Actually PTI(pti) is well into his 40s at this point and has lived with a few girls.
-The weather dude getting fired is crazy to me. Any rational person can realize stumbling over the words Luther and King would result in an unfortunate sound but is far from something that ruins a guys reputation and a termination. Some world we live in where the only satisfaction for a silly mistake is so drastic.
-A crew member verbally mentioned using Roman while at my house and I swear I'm now getting pelted with PE/ED ads from them.
-Think we deserve a little clarification on both sides of the Gran story. So this guy is highly sought after, well respected, top 5 coordinator in the country and his numbers are very mediocre and it seems a lot of the criticisms are justified.
-Really happy that Tebow is going to finally get laid 31 long years into life. She's a smoke show, so good for him.
-Starting to remember why betting CBB lines is impossible.

Random college basketball coaching observations....
-Wodie's mention of the upgrade in SEC basketball coaches led me to look at where some of the fired guys from recent years ended up, and how they're doing in their new spots:
Rod Barnes went 12-18 last year at Cal-State Bakersfield
Mark Gottfried is currently off to a scorching 6-10 start at Cal-State Northridge
Dennis Felton is a combined 17-31 so far at Cleveland State
Anthony Grant is off to a 18-20 start at Dayton(and he didn't inherit a program in shambles)
So many times you see a Power Five coach axed, go off and build up an impressive record at some scrub school, then earn another Power Five shot, only to remind everyone why he was axed the first time around. Doesn't look like that's gonna happen for our former SEC brethren.
Then again, Ernie Kent is somehow still coaching a Power Five school even though he hasn't won more than 13 games in any of the past five seasons.
-Remarkable how many college PG's that we remember from the 1990's have launched head coaching careers: Juan Dixon, Martin Inglesby, Jason Gardner, Shantay Legans(who at one time was a Kentucky lean before ending up at Cal), Damon Stoudamire, Shaheen Holloway, Dan Earl, not to mention all the ones already well-known to us. Guessing Stoudamire is the one from that bunch most likely to break out, since he's the biggest national name. But Holloway was a legend up in the NYC area, so if he can get any traction whatsoever, he could carve out a niche.
-Really thought Marvin Menzies would have it rolling more smoothly at UNLV by now. I know it no longer has any brand buzz among HS kids, but it's still Vegas, and the brand still resonates with coaches/parents/handlers. Thought a guy who averaged 20+ wins per season at New Mexico State would have a quicker start, but so far, nope. And he's had some dudes.
-Walter McCarty has basically NOTHING on that Evansville team, but still has them playing .500 ball and they ripped Loyola-Chicago last night. Good for Big Walt.

Gran would like to run more up-tempo, but Stoops won't let him plus our QB was terrible at most aspects of being a QB. Stoops' insistence on milking the clock means Gran's bad play calls are magnified because getting behind the sticks for us is worse than for a triple-option team.
If Gran had an average QB and Stoops' would unpucker his ******* for 5 minutes, I would pay him damn near whatever he wanted to keep him. Even being handcuffed the way he has been, he definitely set the attitude for the offensive side of the ball and has the players' respect. We have some guys who could have turned into legit headcases/locker room cancers under different OCs. Not to mention he willingly changed his style up just to fit what Stoops wanted and you've never heard even a subtle dig in the media or anywhere else.
If he goes to UGA it will be a huge blow and I don't think we can reasonably assume we'll end up with someone better

Anthony Grant still looks sharp AF, though. His crisp whites remain second to none.
- Marquette's unis are a joke. Good grief, they look like some janky *** Michigan knock offs
- Creighton in the Big East is second only to Maryland in the Big 10 in "schools I will never actually accept are in the conferences they are in"
- The Big East/Fox using Roundball Rock is :fire::fire::fire:. Actually, their whole setup (Creighton aside) is dope. Bunch of East Coast Catholic schools duking it out in the depths of winter is the epitome of college basketball [thumb2].

My only real issue(s) with Gran has been that we have held onto the wildcat about 2 years too long and the criminal underuse of CJ. Other than that, he's pretty good, not irreplaceable, but good.
I think Terry made a lot of poor reads this year, SJ was never healthy last year. At the offense’s peak, with a healthy Steven Johnson, like @ UL-Larmarfumbled, we were pretty entertaining.

Creighton is a great basketball program, absolutely worthy of the new ‘Big East’. Don’t get the hate there. Top 5 in attendance & always competitive.
Extremely jealous of their FS1 deal btw (B1G as well) CBS graphics, Gus, Raftery, and a full stable of NCAAT announcers, the works really.
The SECN is the Big Blue Network w/ Rob Bromley in comparison.

I don't mind Creighton at all and they are, history wise, worthy. I just don't like the fit. It's jarring to see a Big East schedule full of teams within 100 miles of each other, then Creighton. I get it, the conference shakeup made for necessary evils, I just don't dig it is all. And Creighton's not the only one, but Xavier and DePaul still have that city school vibe. Butler and Creighton are just outliers
- The Wildcat is still a useful formation. He uses it at odd times, doesn't use Bowden on the jet sweep out of it, and refuses to take Terry out and put in another blocker in situations where that's possible, but the hate it gets is well out of proportion with the results it gets. At worst it's a net neutral. At best it's slightly more effective in short yardage situations and adds another formations for defenses to scheme against. Again, not using Bowden in motion, even as a decoy, has more to do with it being less effective this year as anything

You know, I wouldn't hate the Wildcat as much if they would do the stuff they used to do with it - i.e. send a guy in motion to at least make the defense hesitate for a second. Why this wrinkle disappeared - especially when we have Bowden - is beyond me.
I genuinely believe that the next offensive innovation in football will be teams having two guys who can pass the ball on the field at the same time and making use of it more often.
Not on Coach Mark Piglet's team it won't.
Eddie won 10 games at Kentucky? Hell give him whatever he wants.
I fired Eddie like 3 times per game this season, but now I'm scared he'll leave? #ukfansdontknowjackboutfootball
Maybe Gran bargains with Stoops - “let me open this thing up a little bit & I’ll stay. Oh, and pay me *****.”
More goal-line reverses to Tavin Richardson with the school's all-time leading rusher left holding his penis please.
What am I missing here? If UGA offered him that much money to leave- there really shouldnt be much to think about.
Bottomline: UK has money to compete with just about anyone in the country and is about as attractive an opportunity for a coordinator as there could be in CFB today.
In spite of what our blogger overlords say about it, we'll be fine.

I'm a full-on Eddie Gran honk and hope we keep him. Other than CJ Conrad, he's gotten just about everything possible out of the players we have had, imo.
He's also done some dumbshit on occasion. But on the whole, the man knows how to win games and he and Stoops seem to have come to a working consensus about what they are looking for.

FTR I don't think he's going anywhere but to the bank with a new deal. JMO.
Positionless football.
