Overall I'd give the edge to (legit) Eye-talian, but you haven't lived until you've had schnitzel in Vienna or weisswurst in Munich. :nod: :nod:

Never been there, but I had family from Germany that would come to Iowa every summer when I was younger and would make "traditional" German meals....dear god I miss them.

I'll give you that Italian food "looks" better, it has nothing on German food for taste, IMO....


A well made dish with spätzle noodles beats out any dish with Italian noodles.

Something like this is damn tough to beat

Guys, this thread is now about ethnic cuisine. Please leave the OT football discussion out of it.

FWIW, I'm German on both sides...and I can't stand sauerkraut.

I'll take Italian any day of the week over German. I'd like to find some place here in Cali that does old school British fare, though. There are some cool things described in my Napoleonic War novels that I'd like to try. The descriptions I've seen of Spotted Dog sound AMAZING. I've made ship's biscuit, although I could never get it to come out right. Of course, REAL ship's buiscuit came out of a year's-old barrel with weevils to shake out, so I'm not sure I want to go quite THAT far. LOL.

GA State and Lamar might do that, but GA So and App are too intelligent to fall for that trap....

You figure App St., Georgia So. go, the end.

After that I'd bring Lamar and NMSU. No need for Imaho unless they go to 12 and one of those 4 back out and Imaho comes in for fb only.

Exactly. This could mean there are some FCS programs that have no interest in the SBC.

Ga Southern is still on the list, why would App St. all of a sudden have a change of heart especially when Ga Southern still seems to want in the SBC

I dunno. Maybe the SBC didn't/doesn't have an interest in App State. (I don't know why that would be.)

Meanwhile, I read this headline today.
The College of Charleston’s board of trustees will meet this afternoon and decide the future of the school’s athletic department.


• Expected to join CAA as a full member next fall

• Will pay $300,000 plus undisclosed transition fee to join CAA

• Will pay $600,000 exit fee to Southern Conference

The board is expected to vote to join the Colonial Athletic Association.

Speculation is that Charlie Cobb may have put all his eggs in the C-USA basket and in the process gave the Sunbelt the middle finger.

The SunBelt numbers have never worked for the Hillbillys.

Forty schollies, capital and operating increases, etc., can't be funded by a move to the SBC. As a matter of fact, Chuckles and Chancellor Cheerleader never really explained on their *listening tour* how they would pay for anything, other than by using *enhanced ticket revenues and corporate sponsorships*

Edit: I fergit ...

Chancellor Cheerleader also said that the move to FBS would pay for the elimination of student fees associated with football (without explaining how or over what time frame)

To my knowledge, no one has swallowed that KoolAid.

KoolAid? Sounds more like cyanide.
