It is indeed. Sous vide a sirloin and you've got yourself the filet tenderness but actual beef flavor 😋
A tender, flavorful, well marbled, piece of meat is worth any price, any sacrifice! I am NOT talking about sex!!!!!

Bro, I told you some of these guys are mentally incapable of allowing any semblance of positive comments or positive news concerning Justin Fields to show up on this message board without crashing out LOL.
“What kind of contract do you think Fields gets?”

“Probably 2 years, $10-$15 mil per y—“

“WHY ARE YOU SO OBSESSED!?!? STOP SHITTING ON FIELDS!!”

My thing with Dominoes is that they pile on the garlic. So if you have a few slices at a work pizza party (which let's be honest, if you're work is supplying Dominoes for a pizza party you need to find a new job), you're walking around the rest of the day with that on your breath.

Pizza Hut has a nice buttery crust, IMO.

Personally, I liked a place called Gumby's in college. They were at U of I, but by the time my last year at ISU rolled around they were in Normal.
@bearsfan1977 was the Gumby’s in Athens part of a chain? I had no idea that it was a chain.

Interesting story about the Athens store here:

He ain’t getting $10 million per year. 2 years, $15 million. I could see the Jets going after him this offseason.

Those are not my words, so I’m unsure why you’re responding to my quote.

To be clear though, it’s easy to predict that you guys were going to move the goalposts. Since Fields has not been ran out of the league or currently positioned to be a career backup like some of you hoped, you are now preparing to make an issue of his yearly salary as a starting NFL quarterback and how many years is really considered “multi-year” LOL.

"How much do you think he'll make?"

"I think he'll get 2 years, $10 to $15 mil per y---"

"WHY ARE YOU MAKING AN ISSUE OF HIS YEARLY SALARY!!"



Who said he was going to get run out of the league?

As for being a backup, hey, that's what he is. Will a team make him more than that? We'll see. If a team does make him the starter, that's one more team than was willing to make him the starter last year, so progress?

It’s been explained to you and your brethren that Russell Wilson signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers over other teams because he was promised the starting job. Justin Fields filled in while Russ was hurt and led the Steelers to a 4 - 2 record before being replaced by Russ once he recovered from his injury.

Man, this is taking me down memory lane. I had no idea there were Gumby’s outside of Athens.

I do remember a few things. 1. The pizza was awful when sober. 2. It was the go-to at 1am when everyone was high and drunk. 3. It was always funny to hear whoever’s turn it was to call and order their “Big Ass Pizza.”

Fun times.

I remember they had the Guns N Roses pinball game and the giant painting of Hershel leaping over a pile of Irish defenders at the goal line from the Sugar Bowl victory.

And yes the food wasn’t good but that was the first time I ever had Sweetwater beer, it was the 98 game when UT beat UGA 22-6(?). I believe College GameDay was there which was their 1st visit of I remember correctly. The 90’s was not a good decade of UGA football. My earliest recollections of UGA were not good because they sucked so much under Goff lol. Something about having the last name Goff and sucking seems to stay true today

It wasn’t a good time for football but it was a fun time to be in Athens. They shut down all of downtown one night in ‘98 (I think) so Widespread Panic could play a free show. I’ve never seen so many people on psychedelics in 1 place at 1 time in my life.

I remember that. I was supposed to go but bailed at the last minute. My friends all took acid and somehow stole a dump truck outside of Athens when they got home that night. They parked the truck in the middle of the street and couldn’t figure out how to turn off the headlights so they smashed them out.

That might have been 1999.

Edit: it was 98
