    This may be a homer comment, but no idea why they'd have Miami at 25 over Louisville. We've decimated them 2 years in a row. We also will likely have one of the best front 7 defense not only in the ACC, but also the NCAA in general. Our offense is what sucked last year mainly, which caused the...

    Alabama is appropriate on that list (I would never argue against them, they have a proven track-record), the rest of the SEC is not even close. I would only put about 4-5 total SEC teams in the Top 25. I think Georgia, Auburn, and Ole Miss are going to have a great year, but A&M, LSU, and...

    They said Ivy Bridge would clock to 5.0ghz+ with only passive cooling. Take that overclock with a grain of salt or it is a very handpicked engineering sample (with soldered IHS that won't be on the standard retail units).

    There is an interesting graph that shows the type of offenses each conference plays. The SEC is a very heavy run offense which may be why they have not had a lot of great professional QBs as of late. The ACC/AAC/Big East are very pocket-passer oriented which is why their QBs lately have been...

    Terry Rozier is blowing it up in the summer league for the Celtics. Love the kid, but no way did I imagine him going at 16 (had him late first round), but it seems to be paid off. Huge difference between when he last played college ball and now. He is shooting a great time 3pnt percentage...

    I give Petrino 3 years... I think he's a fantastic coach (hard to deny that especially for what he's done at other programs), but he does have/had some personal issues. He does seem like he's getting his act together though as he is doing some great things for the city (his foundation and...

    So... Louisville just landed Jawon Pass (Dual-threat QB) that was being heavily recruited by Alabama and Auburn. Saban literally spent the whole day with him yesterday, something he doesn't do often for recruits (from what I read and understood). HUGE step for the Louisville program to land...

    ... I also smoke in the mornings sometime. A medium strength and short cigar and a nice cup of coffee. Fucking incredible way to start the day! But yes... I will die a early but amazing death. I hope I die with a lit cigar in my mouth. I better be buried with a cigar or my pipe in my mouth too.

    I also enjoy the double-buzz. I rarely smoke without drinking some type of alcohol. My go-to for after work is a nice stout cigar (Padron, Joya De Nicaragua, Undercrowns, LFD, Tatuaje, Cain) and a nice glass of Bourbon. You get the nicotine buzz and then also the alcohol buzz, which is actually...

    Cubans are good, but not worth it. The issue with Cuban Cigars is they are much like European beer, they use the same (great) recipe but never try to deviate and create something new. Other cigar companies that basically fled Cuba are creating original blends and new blends constantly. Most of...

    I may be a Louisville fan, but I have a deep-down feeling Petrino will do something stupid (again). Hopefully he gets his 3rd chance right. Intrinsic, you going the the Auburn/Louisville opener? I have tickets, but not sure if I'll be able to make it.

    You get the box. I generally use them for decoration or ashtrays. I use my Opus X box (without the lid) to hold my crystal decanter and glasses on my bar-stand.

    This... Fuente Short Stories are my go-to winter smoke as they are a nice quick smoke when it is below-freezing. Fuente is pretty much good at everything. They may not be the most risky in terms of their blends and don't generally like to try new and crazy things, but they are the most...

    Vision is powerful as hell in the game however. His ranged build beats pretty much every character (Doom being an exception) without weaving (and is only behind Doom with weaving). He is a better version of Cyclops in which he actually has survivability.

    There is no insulation between the structural wood and the cedar lining inside?
