FOOTBALL Please let the BCS championship be a SEC Big 12 affair

[FIMCO-MEISTER]

Penn State goes down. GOOD. Top 5 in BCS are BIG 12 or SEC. Only team outside that 5 for consideration should be USC but the PAC sux and they don't play a championship. Same goes for Big 10.

Undefeated TTech vs Undefeated AL would be a dream but I think it will end up being

OU vs UFL

Tenn has hit rock bottom. Wyoming? That's like Cheney beating Gore in a boxing match.

Cowboys on hiatus but Romo returns against Wash next week. Make or break game for the Cowboys.

[Wet_Boots]

Cowboys? Hee-hee!

[Waterit]

Cowboys on hiatus

Cowboys going to he!! in a bucket - look for new coach next year.

Please oh Great God of Football fans give me the opportunity to cram crow down BOOTS and WATERITS throats.

[Grace Irrigation]

I am pulling for OU but it is still a long road through Tech, OSU, and the big 12 championship game.

RIP TEXAS TECH

OU beat you like a drum, unfortunately for you and your fans your fairy tale ended in a nightmare! Now that there is one less overated team in the picture, put the woman and children to bed and let the studs battle it out. Here's a clip from one of the TT coaches after the game ....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_N1OjGhIFc

[elite lawns]

that was great game Go Sooners

In fairness to Tech no team I've seen in the last three years would have beat OU in that game. They were pumped and at home. I think OU is playing the best football in the Big 12 right now but assuming UT and OU win out I suspect UT will be in the BCS Champ game. I'd love to see Tech play UF or Bama in a bowl. On neutral ground they would make a good showing INMO.

[Grace Irrigation]

Well, you would suspect ut to be in the BCS Champ Game. That sounds like some of that Brown politics. It will be the Sooners...

Sooners It Is!!!

Texas 45 OU 35 need I say more?

[Wet_Boots]

BCS is malarkey. Better the old system of polls and arguing. :realmad:

[Marcos]

Big East champ University of Cincinnati & coach Brian Kelly are probably going to the Orange Bowl :clapping::dancing::clapping::.....to play (Boston College?)

It should be very interesting to see how well the Bearcats do in that type of national limelight.

Surprise, we don't agree AGAIN. Cheap cheese is orange, good cheddar is yellow, and GOOD cheese is usually a shade of white with a good wax rind.

[Wet_Boots]

Surprise, we don't agree AGAIN. Cheap cheese is orange, good cheddar is yellow, and GOOD cheese is usually a shade of white with a good wax rind.Try some triple-aged Gouda cheese. Sort of a brown-orange-yellow color, and almost impossible to cut.

[AI Inc]

Didnt we just go thru this last week? Yes gouda is ok , but Cabots 2-1/2 yr aged sharp chedder is the bomb!

[Wet_Boots]

The really ancient goudas are over five years aged.

[FIMCO-MEISTER]

Gouda is a good scrabble word.

[bicmudpuppy]

Top of the line aged cheese goes out of my league for most things, but we like to do the "snack night" thing with the kids and hitting the market or Sam's for a diverse range of cheese is always a hit. Favorites seem to be Gouda and Havarti. I don't like Swiss, but the wife and son do. I haven't seen any limburger (sp?) in a long time, but Dad always liked it as a spread. Good if you can get it past your olfactories :) I have always been partial to smoked varieties as well. You used to be able to get a really good smoked white cheddar from the dairy counter at K-State, on campus. They real reason for going was the ice cream, but the cheese was top notch as well.

Whole Foods (or Whole Paycheck) has a good cheese section and variety.

Since we've hijacked this to food I didn't see any road side stands in NM for my HATCH CHILI POWDER that I use in my Chili. Maybe on the way back. Also Dana what town is that hot picante place in you sent me some of?

[DanaMac]

Also Dana what town is that hot picante place in you sent me some of?

They are from Boulder, hence the Boulder Hot Sauce :laugh: On your way back, you can usually get it at Safeway/City Market/King Soopers in this area.

...however at this point in time, there's an outside chance the Bearcats could still play in the Sugar Bowl in Louisiana.

But I'm sure you'll come up with some type of creative put-down for that too, Kiril! :waving:

Perhaps I could get creative and link it to global warming. :laugh:

[Marcos]

global warming.

global what?
What the heck are you talking about? :rolleyes:

[KACYDS]

After winning the BCS Championship last year, LSU has had a tough time this year. After going through 3 freshman quarterbacks, hopefully they found the right one for next year. Oh well, cant win them all. lol:laugh:

We picked up some Hatch peppers on our way west; the best!

A little late for freshness. Roasted already?

We have prob 20 lbs in the freezer, great any time of year.

[Mike Leary]

We just chew on them and wash down with whiskey.

[frumdig]

ill put it back to football. :) to put it short; I hope Florida sticks it to bama in the SEC tourney, i just cant stand em... i had to drive thru alabama over the break, and thats all you hear on every damn radio station, is them praising their saint saban, and da bear... being an MSU alum, bama was the other close rival... (which i might add, thank you huston nutt and the rebs for whooping are ass in the egg bowl, heres to hoping we can get a good coach) but it should be a good game, and theres no doubt their good... i have to want somebody to fail.... :)

There are numerous varieties and brands that are Grown in Hatch. hatch is just the region they are grown in, good soil, temps, just right.

Kind of like saying, I got NAPA wine.

So a "Hatch" pepper could be any variety? Interesting.

I think the ones we get tend to be anaheims. At least where we buy them and have them roasted, they have signs saying "Hatch". They could be built in China with lead for all I know. But they are so goooood.

I'm learning; northern folk are not so hep. When we go to Phoenix, my uncle takes me to a Mexican market where they roast in front of the store. :clapping:

Yep; we took my aunt's advise and bought locally.

I used to love roasted peppers and jalapenos...my stomach doesn't love them.:cry:
