    OT: Chicago Downtown

    100% Accurate. We went for Mother's Day weekend in May 3-4 years ago (don't recall - too much wine). Caught the Sox game on Friday night at Comiskey in shorts and a T-shirt. The NEXT day, caught the AFTERNOON game at Wrigley and huddled under the $35 blanket we were fortunate enough to buy...

    Word to the Wise - Shingles Vaccine

    Definitely get the shots. My older sister had the shingles and said it was the worst thing she ever experienced. The first shot feels like Mike Tyson punched you in the shoulder, the second shot was about half as bad. A couple of days of sore shoulders is better than two weeks of pain and no...

    OT-where to eat in or near Grapevine TX

    We moved to College Station seven years ago, and we go to Grapevine 2-3 weekends a year. We ALWAYS make it a point to go to Cafe Italia on Ira Wood Parkway in Grapevine. You can bring in your own wine and they don't charge a corkage fee. Everything is excellent, but the Lobster Ravioli in...

    We paid a dollar store price for a head coach and it is setting our program back 15 years. Cohen must go. JoMo must go.

    Cord Cutting... but I want to watch State football and live outside of MS

    Not sure if this has been addressed before, but how does Sling, Hulu, etc. work on multiple televisions? Besides the den, I have a patio tv we prefer when the weather is cooler (I live in Texas). Right now, I still have DirecTV with multiple IR boxes going through a tuner for surround sound...

    Bulldog family living in College Station

    No. Don't come here for chicken wings. Come here for BBQ. Fargo's, Rudy's, or C&J are all good. Also, I would recommend a class in remedial English.

    Bulldog family living in College Station

    This is to everyone coming in for the A&M series. We have lived here for six years, so if you have any questions, I will try to help. I don't get on here too often, but I'll try to check periodically as I can. Just be patient.

    OT: Buc-ee’s: What to buy?

    We moved to Texas six years ago. Believe me, you will want to stop at Buc-ee's! It is a convenience store on steriods. I've been in smaller Walmarts. The bathrooms have 40 urinals and 25 stalls, and they are always sterile-clean. The coffee is never more than 40 minutes old, and they have...

    After I have cooled down

    Officiating didn't win the game for Bama. Mississippi State played a very respectable game tonight. However, certain officiating calls lent credence to the conspiracy theory James Carville accused of the SEC office for pro-Alabama officiating. I thought he was just an LSU homer crying in his...
