taco bell just brought back the carmel apple empanada for their decades menu. So sad they couldnt bring back the chaco taco. Have to imagine they would have to call in police to control traffic if that were to happen

Chaco taco is an ice cream tho... That was sold in grocery stores made by klondike

yeah. But it was sold at taco bell. 

I dont think the ice cream company will bring it back if little me asks them. But if fast food giant taco bell asks, it might get their attention. Its our only chance. Taco Bell needs to bring it back.

good to know you think its ok to pick on the successful owner. But no one can pick on your QB crush who actually stinks. 

 

Lurie right now because I called him Hollywood Lurie.  I'm sure it means a lot to him that you're so passionately sticking up for him right now for what you perceive as him being picked on.

Watching it at home with my dog because I'm too much of a nutter to listen to other people talk during the game. People they're the worst lol.  

Im the same, fn hate the bar scene for games or parties. Everyone chiming the F in and half of them dont know what they are talking about and its infuriating listening to that kind of crap while trying to watch the game

saw a tweet the other day saying 10+ may be taken in the 1st two rounds.

Might be a little overboard given the Barkley/Henry frenzy this year. But I dont doubt it can happen as teams try to jump on the trend.

Really kind of weird comment by Baun this week about being 2-2 and then at that point, players decide to start buying in to Fangio's scheme and really start trying to understand what he is asking of them.

I know you all remember being critical of the Nolan Smith pick even this year. He turned it on around the time of Graham's injury. Early on, looked like more of the same from his rookie year.

Im not sure how many will remember or admit to being critical of Jalen Carter this year. First few weeks, many people expressing disappointment in his inconsistency. And Im not here to tell you guys that you were wrong in that moment. 

Same, for Vic Fangio himself. This is one I am guilty of. I think I was one of them in the first few weeks who was already disgusted with this system and the way it looked after previous failures of Fangio disciples. 

 

So.... who among them in the locker room wasnt doing their job? Who wasnt buying in at first and why? Who was at fault for making it look so wrong? I guess we are past the point of that mattering. We shouldnt look back and open those wounds. The team defeated those demons. Leave them in the past.

At this point the players have bought in. Fangio looks like a genius- living up to his reputation as an upper echelon DC in the NFL for years.

 

Finally coming around to my point- do we really have something here in DL coach Clint Hurtt? Its not JUST Fangio, right? Much of the early defensive struggle was due to absolutely no pressure from the DL. 

At one point very early on, Ojomo and Booker looked like our best DTs. Not Williams, Carter or Davis. Ojomo the rookie, and Booker a UDFA a year ago. Since then Carter has not only come around as a more consistent version of his pretty impressive rookie self. But, he has reached new heights far exceeding that. Nolan Smith has become an NFL player who should be a double digit sack guy next year with the full season starting. Jalyx Hunt, such a raw prospect, is NFL ready. Getting playing time in post-season games, and making plays. Players across the board at all DL positions are making strides. 

Clint Hurtt- future assistant coach of the year? Future DC candidate?

This came to mind because of my comment about Howie being able to pick a DL out of a hat in this draft and it being a great pick no matter what. And you know- its probably time to say we can be more confident in that because we have Clint Hurtt to coach that rookie up.

How much of it was them not buying in versus it just taking them four games in to find their footing? Coming into the season, I thought it was fair to give them a pass the first month of the season if it didn’t look right due to taking time to gel, establishing roles, and an overall feel of playing with one another. There were a lot of new pieces on each front with Huff at the start, Baun, Quinyon, and CJGJ. Huff flamed out and was a bust, but they have been getting good output from just about everyone else. 
 

I think they hit the bye at the perfect time after the Tampa game to take a break and reassess everything. They came out firing after that against NYG and really haven’t looked back since then.

Yes for one year in 2022 lol. Just found this though...

Rumors abound that Choco Taco is coming back, but is it really? The answer: sort of. A Choco Taco-inspired product is hitting the market in 2024, and while it might be a real treat, it's not the real deal.

The Original Choco Taco was developed in 1983 by Alan Drazen, the manager of an ice cream store in Philly. It truly had a good run. For nearly 40 years, ice cream lovers could find the treat in ice cream trucks, at the grocery store, and offered as a dessert at their favorite local eateries (older fans may remember seeing the Choco Taco placard on the table at their favorite Mexican restaurants back in the day, while the younger generation may remember the Choco Taco from Taco Bell in 2022).

Wonder why Shaw passed numerous HC opportunities, and is now interested in an assistant position.

So many good things aren't the same as they were before.

At one point, Honeycomb was the greatest cereal ever invented. I used to love going to the store and picking up a box of Honeycomb and a bottle of milk and then just eat it as a snack for days on end. Always dry with the milk in a glass. (The very idea of milk in a bowl of cereal makes me cringe.)

About twenty years ago they changed the recipe, reduced the sugar content, and turned my favorite cereal into what amounts to cardboard.

I just found out that in 2019, Butterfinger got a new recipe. I bought one today because I was craving it and immediately noticed a difference. So, of course, I did a little research and found out Ferraro changed the recipe. I hate them now. Being an adult sucks.

Butterfingers blow, 5th avenues is where its at if you want delicious chocolate and a light crispy peanut butter.. 

Wow the sixers won back to back games. Not sure if it’s a good omen for Philly or Joshua Harris

ok now you are insulting my taco bell intelligence. It was definitely not just sold for 1 year at taco bell. I got that as a kid, and got it for many years. That was looong before 2022.. That sounds right about the time it went away after being sold there for decades.

You are correct sir since 1989. I didnt have a taco bell around me till the late 2000's lol

I dont know who makes Honeycomb, but anything made by Post is disgusting. They often have some pretty cool new flavors and I fall for it over and over again. No more. If it says Post, dont buy it.

Unfortunately the one you do have really sucks. 

When I was living in New Ringgold for a bit, Id go there and their nachos always had some horrible, HORRIBLE taste like they were fried in rancid oil. I think they fry way too much there with the Long John Silvers combined, and dont change the oil nearly enough. 

Was there a few months ago for a cabela's trip and stopped in for Long John Silvers because I havent had that in years (and the one in Hazleton closed and became yet another vape shop). That place is filthy disgusting. I mean, you dont even get that level of filth in hazleton. What the hell?

I will never forgive Post for what they did to Honeycomb
