I hate GOAT conversations in both sports and music, but rap has to be one of, if not, the most difficult genres to rank "the greatest". Lends itself to subjectivity moreso than any other type of music, imo.
I'm preferential to Nas, myself. Tupac is the standard answer for people who don't really know rap. Big L will always top Jay Z in my catalogue.

The comments section is the ultimate cesspool of humanity, but when Herro pulled his last Kobe-like modeling stunt, I was flipping thru tfb and on my fly-by of some random site that had posted all those ridiculous pics I see Geese drop a:


“YASS, King. Slay!”

…in the comments.

Absolute gold. He’s terrible.

He should change his name to TyTy or Treyvon.

Nas career didn’t age as well as someone like Jay, but you could easily argue he had a better voice and lyrics. Jay should’ve also retired after Black Album, though.

Herro solidifying himself in the Rex Chapman category for me.
Sad to see it unfold. Rex is just literally a mouth-breathing moron but Herro seems like a guy without anyone to take him aside and let him know what's up.

If anyone has ever needed a ball-busting, scotch-drinking uncle to intervene, it is that winja.

His dad looks the part, as Wisconsin as someone can look. Kinda weird really. I guess he's just not into snapping Tyler into shape.

Believing UK will beat the Dawgs is more likely than believing Matt Jones first political donations of his life were to Charles Booker, of all candidates.
His first political donation was to Craig Greenberg, the donation to Booker isn't even recorded yet.

Why would he lie about something so easily verifiable?

8-8 in year 3, after having 1 winning season since he left. Silly Raider fans about to find out Carr isn’t staying after this either!

Good Luck in Vegas though.

I love how the Raiders just draft the fastest dude every year and think he’ll automatically be the next Jerry Rice. That’s a solid strategy.

Morning Centennial State randos.....

- LSU fans are completely demoralized. Saturday night they weren't even mad. Worse, they were indifferent. Given up hope. They absolutely LOVE Coach O, but realize he's not a good coach, and know they're going nowhere with him.

- It was strange being out at a bar watching them get beat down in my UK gear and nobody really gave a damn.

- Will Levis has such a unique skill set. He can drop bombs but isn't accurate. He's a big, strong runner who gets the most out of his talent but he's not a combine superstar athlete. In that regard he's the opposite of Turnover Terry. I absolutely love seeing him run, and just hit Wan'dale when he can. That's when he plays his best.

- All-time college highlight was the day a group of us tried to hit 21 bars and have 1 beer at each. To think about how far Lexington has come since then, we struggled to even map the thing out. As best I can recall....

Tolly Ho
The Library
Lynagh's
Fish Tank
Mia's
Rosebud
Cheapside
Two Keys
Ramsey's (High St)
O'Shea's
Rincon
Charlie Brown's

I know I'm misremembering like a mf'er. Bellydancer? WS? BBdK? Little help? I think the finally tally was about 20 bars.

- Move into our new establishment in LoDo (don't look at me like that, I didn't give it that wackass monicker) this AM.

- Hosted the 3rd annual New Orleans Ultramarathon this weekend. Kind of a strange year, as registration took a hit after Hurricane Ida, and we had more no-shows than normal, but it was a blast.


Probably put some pics up this week. The final 50-mile finisher was a guy we've become friends with who races under the name "Phuck Cancer." He's beaten it twice, including his last Stage 4/terminal diagnosis. His whole family was there. We pushed back the cutoff times to ensure he and others finished. He was hurting big time but determined, and crossed the finish line slowly but surely to a huge celebration, including a raucous applause from the folks at the brewery who otherwise had no interest in our event. The owner (a cancer nurse) was even there to personally congratulate him. These stories just write themselves, man.

- 24 points, lol. WTF?

I've got so much more confidence in this game than I probably should, but damn. I truly don't think UGA will score 24 points. If we're going to win, I want to see a Mark Stoops special. Just run the ball all damn day. Control the clock. Make it a slugfest. Wear them down and take big shots when they're tired in the second half.

- Y'all can have all the 5-star hotels you want. What I'm looking for is a free continental breakfast with huge industrial coffee machines and tons of heavily processed creamer, Frosted Flakes, and maybe a self serve belgian waffle maker.

- Patience is wearing way TF thin with COVID stuff. Went to dinner Sunday night and had the hostess remind me twice that there was a 1 hour, 30 minute limit to table dining. It was just after 8pm. Me, twice = "you close at 9, right?" Fairly certain she didn't "get it." On Monday, some 400-pounder at AutoZone barked at me "you have to wear a mask," and this mf'er was behind his little clear screen with his gaiter wrapped completely around his neck, evidently blind to the irony. Me = "does that apply to both of us?" He fumbled thru some words and pulled his up. By the time I got in line his nose was exposed. By the time he checked me out it was all the way down around one of his necks again with his mouth/nose totally 100% exposed. GFY.

- My last ski trip was with CoolCat and mmharmon to Steamboat for the Texas country weeklong concert. Random. Ready to hit the slopes again, and I'm not talking about in the "snorting cocaine" way. Although that’s cool, too.

- Dave Chapelle's Netflix special was amazing. Glad to hear his high pitched voice come back out. That's when you know he's saying something funny.

- 5 good songs you need to listen to....

Last Pale Light in the West (Ben Nichols/Lucero)
One in the Saddle, One on the Ground (Sturgill Simpson)
Drunken Poets Dream (Ray Wylie Hubbard)
The Funeral (Turnpike Troubadours)
American Flags in Black and White (John Moreland)

- It's very understated just how terrible of a job Miami football has become. Howard Schnellenberger used to roll thru the hood in his Cadillac and snakeskin boots picking up every derelict he could find, which launched that program. But ever since Donna Shalalah (sp?) insisted on cleaning it up, it’s truly one of the worst jobs in the country. No commitment from the higher ups. Awful facilities. Unrealistic expectations. We ain’t losing Stoops to them.

- Old boy didn’t mince words when discussing the track at the indoor practice facility, where multiple Olympians/world record holders have honed their craft.

“We need to get that thing out of here.”

lol

- Weed. Shrooms = legal.

Maxwell’s was a free for all every night. What’s **** show that place was. Sat and drank after hours with the barkeep many times.

How did you all make it to Malibu Pub? That’s way out there for one beer.

PTI(pti) those stories at these events are one of the things that makes them so great in my opinion. There was a lady that had major breast cancer surgery in July that finished the NB 100 a couple weeks ago and there wasn't a dry eye at the finish line.

The kid in this video getting iced down is my son's friend that ran with him. This was mile 65 and everything was great until he stood up to leave the aid station. Glad my kid was already gone so he didn't see him like that.

-that looks like a terrible experience. if I'm gonna pay money to be subjected to pain, there better be leather involved.

^that said to each his own. I don't have anything to prove to myself...at the moment.

Doncic/jock itch?

Levis was accurate Saturday. Perfect, really. 14/17, and the three misses were a throwaway, an unbelievably precise off-balance bomb that hit a diving, double-covered Wandale in the hands, and a blown incomplete call on the "TD" to Cummings.

I think he's just figuring all of this out. Once he gets comfortable, and he appears to be trending that way, he's gonna be unreal. If it clicks early enough this year, he may be one-and-done. Wont' be a combine schlub, either.

Not sure if I'll care about basketball until the football regular season is done. Normally I'm drooling at this point in the year, soaking up all of the bball content I can find. Can't muster the smallest **** so far this year.

Stetson Bennett IV, Alpha Sigma Phi voodoo doll. Hope Vito gets an unimpeded blindside blitz.

Couple album recs for those that like the troubador thing. Little less country than PTI's list above, but dark, well-written singer-songwritery stuff:

AA Bondy's first two albums: American Hearts, and When the Devil's Loose
Songs:Ohia - Magnolia Electric Company

Louisville?
Yeah for sure. I’m heading that way tomorrow to stay with some friends and hangout with their churren.

Running looks like fun. Everyone in that video seemed to be having a blast IMO.

I’m ready for some cold weather @wcc31 I didnt come up here for 80s. Looks like we’ll have some 40s-60s coming up soon. Stoked.

Just realized my bet on UK this weekend went through twice. I may just keep both instead of canceling one.
