Those stances

That guy in the headline notwithstanding, most guys sit with their legs slightly spread because TESTICLES. It's also why we rarely cross our legs. Smushing them together is not comfortable, hence a lightly wider stance whilst seated. But, yeah, fuck that guy up there. That's too wide.

+1 doing things the Steeler Way.

Saturday is turn in day. We will be rock'n'rolling from 9am to 1:30pm getting our food ready for turn in, but once 1:30 hits, if you're in the area, come on over! We'll have all of our food prepped and might be able to get you some samples. :) After that final turn in at 1:30, it's Miller Time! (or in my case,…

I've smoked many a brisket, and while I can't speak for Texas, the East Coast Judges are looking for the beef to be the main flavor, if not the only one. We use a very basic rub and phosphate injection that really lets the beefy flavor be the star. And we've got the State Champion Brisket Trophy to back us up.

Not to "snob out" on you, but no respectable team would ever use Mesquite wood for smoking. It's too heavy and that's all you'll taste. Hickory, White Oak, or Pecan for a base, and then fruitwoods like Apple, Cherry, or Peach for sweetness of the smoke. I think that's one of the things that drew me to cooking bbq. …

Yes, but it's outdated. We haven't updated it in awhile. http://www.sngbbq.com/

Blue Cheese guy sounds an awful lot like a regular we used to have. He was an older gentleman, always ate alone, insisted on a female server. But not just any female server. Had to be between 18 and 22, brown hair, with little to no makeup on, hair had to be pulled back in a ponytail. He would call ahead to make…

People who are truly addicted to the caffeine from coffee are the worst. I used to drink coffee and smoke cigs, and when I quit the cigs, I had to quit the coffee or else I wouldn't have been able to do either. Hearing from friends/coworkers/strangers that "I don't even want to look at people until I've had my…

Because they can afford it. Nothing like spending $300 to win $250.

It's common if you're Myron Mixon or one of the other bigwigs who just want the trophies. My cooking team uses C.A.B. because (and I'm quoting the show) who spends $300 on a brisket to win $250?

This. I went drinking with an old friend yesterday, and I forgot how pretentious he was about his beer. Everything he drank had to be more aggressively hopped than the last thing he drank. Thankfully the brewpub we hit had a great selection of whites, browns, and lagers, and not just a shitty list of bitter,…

As soon as someone tells me their favorite beer is Heineken, I immediately know that they hate beer. American, green-bottled Heineken is the worst tasting shit on the planet.

They exist. Terrapin Brewery's Guano Loco is an "aggressively hopped IPA with ancho chiles and chocolate notes". They call it a Ancho-Brownie ale. It's hideous. Also, Dogfish Head took their IPA obsession a step too far with their new offering, "Rosabi". Yes. That's a wasabi IPA. Spicy, bitter, beer. Just what…

Shh...women can't abuse men. It just can't happen. Don't even hint at it, or you're a misogynist.

Oh, I'm not saying its fair, or right, or equal. I'm saying, if you don't want to get hit, don't hit anyone else. That's all. That goes for any combo of gender. Violence is wrong no matter who it comes from. The argument that he is an athlete is irrelevant. My cousin's 6 year old daughter slammed her tiny fist…

I have tried to make this point before, and have been roundly crucified for it. Put simply Stephen A. could have said: "If you don't want to get hit back, don't hit first. Violence is wrong no matter who it comes from."

I too await the video. And yes, the whole post was based off of Chris Rock's joke that there is always a reason to do anything, You just don't do it. My favorite joke so far that's come of this, is "The video will show Rice striking the woman, running 3.1 yards, and falling down."

Semantics, friend. Semantics. Your original comment was "Change the genders and no one bats an eye" being a no brainer. Statistics (yes, actual statistics!) seem to disagree.

It happens more often than you think. Men are shamed into not reporting abuse by their spouses/significant others, but figures suggest that as many as one in three victims of domestic violence are male (citation: Helpguide.org, Domestic Violence Hotline). Still insignificant? And while Mrs. Rice was indeed a victim…
