Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Can't believe this is where we are as a program.....

We've been there far too often the past decade or so.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

What's so hard to comprehend if this team ends up with a 2-8 record is how close 0-10 could've been. A recovered fumble against South Carolina and Mizzou starting the wrong QB were 2 huge saving graces.

That's the thing about movies, u always forget a great one, (if u watch a lot of 'em) until somebody mentions it and u remember how good it was

 

[KB5252]

You don’t have to suffer every Saturday. FYI - we are in the golden age of board gaming. Kickstarter has allowed this to happen. Go down the rabbit hole.

[jakez4ut]

I'm offended no one has mentioned one of my favorites. American History X deserves a place amongst these lists imo.

I do like that movie. American psycho also.

Oh and fight club...

Falling Down, another underappreciated classic. Good work.

Overall

So your still watching UT football, it is in the top 10 horror category.

 

[Devo182]

A Clockwork Orange

Now we're talkin. How about some Apocalypse Now? Requiem for a Dream. Need moar Christopher Nolan. And maybe just one foreign film? Life is Beautiful or La Dolce Vita for me. Amelie and Seven Samurai up there too. Another war movie - Plattoon...and Hurt Locker.

Here's one that usually splits people up and a category rarely in peoples' top 10 - best horror movies.

[JCP201]

Right now, I just want to see what Harrison Bailey can do and how we play this final part of the season.
