The ugly part? Most definitely true, right there.

Boom.  Roasted. 

However, it may be a good idea to stop while you're ahead.  Would hate to see WT knockin' out those teeth.  You know, with you being the face of the firm and all.

This guy was a titan.  The John Hughes of his field in his influence on music of my generation.

And no way we are supposed to be in a monumental struggle with teams like Jax State.

Why Gus is at UCF.

This part reminded me of me versus you. You may disagree but ask your wife.

Unfrosted

The return of Jerry Seinfeld in a film that lampoons the great toaster pastry war of 1963.  Post and Kelloggs raced to market with a shelf-stable heatable pastry and in the end Kelloggs won the war. Not because theirs was necessarily better. In fact, the two were essentially identical. Post's entry flopped because their marketing department landed on the name "Country Squares" which didn't resonate.

This film reminded me a lot of something Mike Judge would do and I spent much of the movie wishing Judge had actually done it. Would have been so much better.

This wasn't a good vehicle for Seinfeld. It just wasn't.  It was also very disappointing that he kowtowed to basically every low-rent, unfunny hack in Hollywood. There were so many people (most of them detestable) stuffed into this film it's practically impossible to list them all.  Amy Schumer (who unbelievably wasn't the worst part of the movie), Fatty McPhee...umm... Melissa McCarthy, Hugh Grant (as Thurl Ravenscroft who sang the Grinch song and voiced Tony the Tiger), James Marsden, Christian Slater, Tyrion Lannister, Jim Gaffigan, John Slattery/Jon Hamm (reprising Mad Men roles), Dean (Hank from Breaking Bad) Norris as Kruschev, Tony Hale, Felix (Ozark) Solis as a cuban sugar dealer, and a BUNCH of second or third tier SNL vets - the unfunny ones like:  Mikey Day, Beck Bennett, Kyle Mooney, Bobby Moynihan, and Fred Armisen.

The best parts were Bill Burr as JFK, Darryl Hammond and Kyle Dunnigan as Ed McMahon and Johnny Carson, and Dunnigan again as Walter Cronkite.

It tried to hard to be funny that it was kind of painful and cringey in places. The January 6 spoof wasn't nearly as humorous as they intended it to be.

Overall it was kind of ridiculous. Seinfeld - and I love his show - really wasn't the right person to bring this story to the (breakfast) table. It suffered at his hand.

I accidentally drank a bottle of invisible ink. 

I don't have an appointment, but I think I'm going to run to the doctor. I hope they can see me.

They knew they were bigger, more talented, and fresher than we were. It was ugly.

You can also wear team's down when you have a better talent up front even when your not playing especially well.
It's happened to us against our greatest rivals.

Year before last, when FUGA came down to JHS, we played them just about straight up for a half.  I clearly remember FUGA coming out in the second half and saying, "We're running it between the tackles from here on out, and there's not a damn thing you can do about it."  They knew they were bigger, more talented, and fresher than we were. It was ugly.

She offered her honor.
He honored her offer.
and all night it was:
Honor and offer.

I do (reluctantly) agree with HF that this is the way to ensure that you have the foundation upon which you can pick and choose a difference maker at the skill positions come transfer time.
