Whataburger Bowl ???

Here in the Constitution State, I don't believe that we have any franchises. Then I thought that Jurassic Referee was making up the Bowl part, again to be funny, but after another internet search, sure enough, there really is, or was, a Whataburger Cactus Bowl, a Division II all-star game, however, it seems that it's now called the Valero Cactus Bowl.

Jurassic Referee is really up on his obscure football knowledge.

I remember eating there in TX when I was spending my days in San Antonio. Between them and Jack-in-the-Box....

My gf told me that the Monster Burger at Hardee's (a US chain) has 1,420 calories and 108 grams of fat. The recommended daily maximum for fat is less than 50% of that value! I like those restaurants, but not as much as your health care system. Luckily, I don't go to those places anymore: I bet Denny's is just as bad, among many others.

You can visit the House of Tofu in Springfield, MASS and have the Bhuck Elics Special......a tofuburger, plain on a 12 grain bun, half a grape and a glass of diet designer water.

You had me for a second, but I know Elics can't eat that much. I mean really, I think about 7 or 8 grains is all he can handle in one meal.

Just like Taco Bell and Jack in the Box in college. Much past midnight, nobody in those establishments were sober, inlcuding the cashiers. Good thing college students can be fed after midnight, unlike Gremlins.

Holy Toledo! Off the crossbar and through from 48 and then a chip shot miss on the other end. Another loss in the Big House.

I am right here. And if Michigan wins another game this year, I will be surprised. I said this while sitting in the Big House during the Wisconsin game. Unlike some here, I have perspective on the team and what they were going to do this year. You do not fill lose all your offensive play makers and play a QB that has never played a snap before this season, a RB that has never played, on offensive lineman that started before this season and numerous wide receivers that never played and expect to have success on offense. This does not include the fact that the players were not recruited to run this offense with a brand new coach that is not from the program. I am not a Cubs fan that gets excited about minimal accomplishments and brags about it.

Michigan is terrible and they make more headlines then any team from Nevada (I have no idea what Nevada did in any sport let alone football). I guess you are jealous.

Peace

Rut, it's the bizarro world!!

Big Blue loses to Toledo in the Big House while Carolina is 5-1 after coming from 11 points down to beat Notre Dame.
