LOL this degenerate SOB has the audacity to call it "Monarch."This is gonna be hard to remember: bnicolls
This is him. Charming fellow. The eviction jokes will make more sense now.
The Wolf of Main Street
Evictions come fast and cheap in the Midwest U.S., where few protections exist and tenants are rarely guaranteed counsel. Here’s a story of a mega-landlord, a lawyer-influencer, and the tenants they pushed outwww.bloomberg.com
Got a long way to go yet for that.
My gosh, his own players robbed his house. I still can hardly fathom it.
And if you want another real underrated dirty coach from the old Big 8, can't go wrong with "Dr." Tom Osborne.
In addition to never, ever forgiving that crappy-ass, boring Nebraska team for stealing a national title from arguably the best college football team (not just offense) ever, let me say the whole secret to Osborne's final era of success was going so thuggy the Ferrari's seem like saints.
Funny story. When I was a new associate, we got to go to lunch with a big shot sr partner who let us pick from 5 war stories for him to tell us about. The first of course was him convicting jimmy hoffa. The second was him defending Barry in a famous insider trading case, in which Barry was at a track meet to see some athlete and pretended to fall asleep on the bleachers while listening to two insiders discuss market sensitive info with each other. Then of course he traded on it.
Urban Meyer would join in with the Ferraris boys wrestling the co-eds
Thanks for sharing that!
I heard of Barry's defense before, but, yeah, he always pretended he was completely innocent of trying to listen in.
I believe it was his son who was competing in track and field.
It wouldn't be a proper TV drama without some who is doing whom? However, that being said. If I am Fast twitch I might sniff somewhere else. A confrontation between the two isn't going to happen on a Friday night NCAA Quarter-final stage. Marinelli would not be kind to Fast twitch.
One of my buddies in Florida is a diehard Gator fan. After all, his father and uncle both played there. He is adamant that most "true" Florida fans prefer to remember Spurrier than Meyer. LOL.
Spurrier is one of them. Urban was just a visitor.
Funniest Spurrier line. After beating Manning's UofTenn team again and regulating the Vols to the Citrus Bowl Spurrier said in his post game press conference, "you'll know you can't spell Citrus without U and T."

Spurrier was actually a damn funny guy.
I’ve been looking for a police procedural gif where they tack up a mafia leadership tree. Or like they had in the Wire to chart who was who in Avon’s crew
The hoffa story was truly great. The highlight was he actually had a perry mason moment. The g’s case came down to a document signed James r hoffa. On the stand, hoffa denied ever signing anything that way, and sure enough the g couldn’t find anything. Trial adjourns for the weekend to wrap on Monday. They find a condo lease signed James r. So Monday comes, and guy asks hoffa whether he was familiar with a consulting agreement with an entity. Hoffa says, that wasn’t a consulting agreement, it was a lease. He produces the document, and asks and isn’t that lease signed on the last page James r hoffa. Check mate.
(Also young jimmy was caught on several occasions trying to listen in on the jury room).
Middle Georgia Raceway
The Middle Georgia Raceway was a half-mile paved track that opened in 1966, at the cost of $500,000. During the inaugural race, the Speedy Morelock 200, Richard Petty broke the speed record for hal…

You reminded me of this story.
If that happens just call Ferrari’s ex-girlfriend, worked for Mastrogiovanni 😂
It’s a Brands joke. He actually said peaking was all mental. No surprise his teams seem to be beat up and leaking oil late every season
I think this fits the Brand's narrative - all the haters - prove the wrong - have them stick it up there 'rear'... Listen to the little Brands interview - chip off the old block - specifically on how they are made up. Not knocking that - it is just what motivates them apparently
You guys smell something?
Ferraris break down, then again it might of been the driver abuse...
If we're going with The Wire criminal analogies, it's probably Ziggy, not Avon.
Even funnier: they brought in Kemerer specifically to change the culture. It worked and they won a title. And then they flushed it away with the anti-Kemerers.
Also funny: they couldn't be bothered to call high-character champions like Carter and Aaron.
Iowa fans all over Twitter trying to correct people about conflating the 2 older brothers - not realizing that they do, indeed, both have criminal charges filed against them.
Glad a good kid like Kemerer got out of there

Didn't the Brands come from some kind of broken or at least challenged household?
All I remember specifically is:
They were from rural northwest Iowa - I want to say Sheldon, Iowa
They were raised solely by their mother, if I'm not mistaken - and I very well could be wrong
They were pretty tough kids with a need to act out some aggression as healthy as possible
A pig farmer introduced them to wrestling
As a senior in high school, Tom and a few other wrestlers were pretty rowdy off the mat - understand, though, this is in a part of Iowa so country that I read in one of the local newspapers (I read old papers when I'm bored) that a neighboring wrestling team suspended some wrestlers (including post-season!) for chewing tobacco on the team bus (and the entire community was outraged, somewhat justly IMO as it was a harsh punishment)
Plus they were growing up right around the time of the "farm crisis" out there. It was bad enough here in Pennsylvania (we lost many dairy farms then) but it was atrocious in places rural Iowa. That would add in to a "chip on the shoulder" feeling. That could be a person equally capable of being a tough but fair hombre or a dickhead....
This all sounds like the background of someone who would be intensely motivated by doubters, and perhaps have an innate need for combativeness.

I'm wondering how all this is "Carl's fault".
LOL
TL;DR:
I'm saying that someone who came from the Brands background could be capable of being either (both?) a very tough but honorable person, or a complete dickhead.
And I think that's about accurate. 😅
Or Occam’s razor: they’re just a$$holes. I’m not here to choose one or the other, just lay out the landscape.
Actually I think they aren’t bad guys - just wired differently from what I gravitate toward. I’m sure once you’re in their circle they do anything for you.
Was looking for video of Brands vs Kelber from 1991 and found this video comparing Terry to Nelson. I'm amused someone took the time to make this.
Nelson seems pretty gung ho to stick things up peoples' butts...
