Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Tried Blanton gold for the first time recently. Man that was good.

Not usually a fan of the ultra high proof stuff, I'm a wimp.
Blanton's gold or Straight from the barrel? Gold is only 103 or there abouts. The straight from the barrel is mid 120's usually. I have some stagg well over 130. 😅
 
Just need to hire a real General Manager, that's been the problem since Jimmy Johnson left..

Max Fried to Yankees 8/$218 million..
Damn Yankees. I knew my Braves weren't going to fork over that much to re sign him but I hate the fact that the Yankees and Dodgers can buy everyone they desire
 
Gold is what I like because it's not crazy high proof. Straight from the barrel is too much for me
Gold is what regular Blanton's should be imo. Nice drinking proof on the Gold and can still handle ice well if needed. Biggest complaint is it's double the MSRP of regular Blanton's and even more difficult to acquire (unless you're in Japan).
 
Also, I’m over the narrative of “Tennessee has to play in the cold and that’s a clear advantage for OSU”.

They have to play in the cold too and from what I researched they’ve got a lot of transfers that haven’t played in the “cold”

Hell, they don’t normally have home games in the final weeks of December. They are at a disadvantage too.
It's less the cold as much as having to play a night road game that worries me. It's UGA again but far colder.

We have been handed literally every single disadvantage imaginable with this format.

...Time to boatrace everybuddy 😅

Regular blanton's is still phenomenal and for the (usual) price of $80 is about the best for the money I've had. That vanilla and the velvet smoothness going down is just so amazing.

But gold is definitely a noticeable notch above, and like you said darn near impossible to find. I've never seen a bottle in a store ever.

Yikes. Even at $80, glad I largely stopped drinking. Better for me and I save $$$$. But I still do the occasional drink.
