OT -- Really Weird Gerry Fraley item

Gerry Fraley is doing a series on the best and worst Cowboys draft choices, and has linebackers up today.

#2 on the "worst" is Markus Steele, a 4th round pick in 2001.  A 4th round pick not working out doesn't seem to be that horrible, to me...using a first rounder on Billy Cannon Jr. seems worse, to me. 

Anyway...on his list of "Dishonorable mention" is Mike Walter.  The same Mike Walter who had a very solid 10 year career with the 49ers.

Really?  Did Fraley not know who Walter was, and just figured he only played a year for the Cowboys so he must have sucked?

Weird.

I would think...

it would be odder if he actually wrote a competent article every now and then.

I thought Jeff Rohrer was productive for a while.

He was

I’m surprised Rohrer would be picked, rather than, say, Jesse Penn.

I'd also think Lockhart would get an honorable mention on the good.

The new Jack in the Box fries blow.

by brettgardner on Mar 15, 2010 10:05 PM CDT reply actions  

they changed their fries?

when did that happen?

huh

it always annoys me when established brands make big changes like that. I hate Dominoes pizza now, for instance, when I used to get it twice a month before.

I have never been a huge fan of the Box’s fries though, so maybe I’ll like the newer ones. They are practically on every corner here in San Diego, as one may imagine.

Go Rice Owls!

have you had their new pizza?

they changed it a month or two ago. It’s awful, in my opinion. That icky garlicy parmesean powder on the crust? Eww….

Go Rice Owls!

It's fucking horrible.

I can’t believe their new campaign is how high-class that low-grade shit is.

I'm still hoping for a New Coke type reversal

It can be part two of the now standard business school class: Part 1: Don’t screw with a good thing – the story of New Coke. Part 2: What happens to dumbasses who didn’t listen to Part 1: Dominoes.

im pretty sure the only difference is italian herbs in the crust...

I can't help it. I’m an asshole.

"Italian herbs"

It’s a layer of garlic butter on the crust.

by brettgardner on Mar 16, 2010 9:07 AM CDT up reply actions  

Dominoes

pizza is better than it was 5 years ago. They used to have the worst godawful cheese know to mankind. I think it was made out of plastic.

I agree.

Getting a #5 is one of my greatest pleasures in life. Don’t fuck with it, Box.

As long as they still have curly fries I'll be just fine.

How in the eff do you change fries anyway?

Different grease?

They were softer, natural-cut (whatever that means), and now they’re crispier and saltier.

All pizza can taste the same if you dump each bite into a vat of Ranch Dressing..mmmmm

No I haven't

tried it. I’ve seen it before at the State Fair. I’ve always been hesitant because just thinking about it makes my arteries feel like they’re hardening.

Many of you may have had it

and not known it. A lot of breakfast joints cook the bacon in the deep fryer. It cooks it more evenly than on the grill. I’m talking about just regular cooked bacon, not battered and fried, which might be the approach at the state fair.

by jcAustin on Mar 16, 2010 10:30 AM CDT up reply actions  

Yep

Used to work at a deli. I know exactly what you mean.

by cmkelly29 on Mar 16, 2010 1:00 PM CDT up reply actions  

I could be wrong, but I thought he meant the kind at the State Fair

where it actually has breading.

Carry on.

Isn't saying a Fraley column is weird like saying ice is cold?

Can’t you pretty much assume the latter as soon as somebody mentions the former?
