***CRIMSON RED DAILY THREAD***

As an Alabama fan, Saints fan and Braves fan I've endured a lot of sports heartbreak over the years.  I can't imagine what Rangers fans are feeling today.

I had just pm'd Jamos, that I couldn't stay awake, but I made myself stay up only to see the 2 out 2 strike double in the bottom of the 9th. I went to bed after that. Apparently it happened all over again. St. Louis has got to be the all-time luckiest sports team in the history of the world.

Ya know, it's early yet this Friday, but you could be banned for even thinking that this is true.  Think...

I know, the boogs have that stupid golden horseshoe and the "never-to-be-spoken" win over us last year was as lucky as it gets, but St. Louis coming from 10 1/2 games down to make the playoffs on the final day, then beat almighty Philly, then beat the Brewers and now this? I think they've sold their souls to the devil. (Boogs too, for that matter)

Back in an hour.

I'm against playoffs. You win the title over a long season and then lose everything in a few playoff games where a poorer team has a hot or lucky streak.

I agree. I would like to see it go back to the NL winner playing the AL winner, with no playoffs.

[Jamos]

I agree with you guys but there's a lot more money involved in the playoff system and that's what it's all about.

[Coach Hank Crisp]

Either do away with the "The Divisional Playoffs" or make them the best of 7.

Where is your gunshow this weekend?

When is the gunshow in Birmingham?

They had one a couple weeks ago, I think.  Some of my coworkers went down for it.

Yesterday's brisket was lunch (dinner) today. She thawed it out in a hurry (microwave) and didn't have time to let it sit a couple hours with the rub on, before smoking) or time to let it rest towards the end of smoking, but for some reason (luck, clean living) it came out great. Even better reheated (in oven) today.

Earlier this summer I typed of my wheels rusting off the frame of an expensive stainless gas grill. I went back to charcoal when I replaced it. First, I bought an inexpensive grill for grilling (NOT barbecueing).  Then one of the old faithful double-layer R2D2 looking charcoal smokers for BBQ. I never got over missing the charcoal flavor when I finally converted to gas, years ago. So the problem now is starting charcoal in -10 snowstorms or rain. Also, the little stores here don't restock charcoal much in the winter, so I had to stock up last week. I'm tempted to have my "body shop"  guys fabricate a grill for me, gas and charcoal,--with turkey fryer/shrimp/crab pot. I never use the side burners, --maybe occasssionally to keep sauce warm. Also I use the grills for boiling water to peel tomatos and for corn on the cob when we "can" each year.

Any tips, new ideas, for the "ART OF BARBEQUEING"?

You remember the Sunday mornings you got up and people like Vandy, ULL, and ESPN was laughing at us cause we couldn't keep Mike Price. I think that is exactly what the Ranger fans are feeling this morning. Pain, with nothing for relief except a Win tonight. RTR!

ULM.

Yeah, the Rangers get a do-over in a few hours.

I think having the custom grill made is a great idea.  You can have them make it so that you can use the gas to start the charcoal in the winter time, then turn off the gas once you get it going.

I have a propane gas grill with a large cooking area, side burner and infra-red burner. You just can't beat steaks and thick pork chops seared on that infra-red burner. The juices are sealed in and the meat is never overcooked because you only leave it on the IR for a couple, maybe 3 minutes each side. If Wifey is eating, she likes well done, so I'll take hers off of the IR and throw it on the regular cooking area until well done. The side burner comes in handy for boiling scrimps. Wifey's only stipulation about my cooking is that ALL seafood is to be cooked outside. I've got no problem with that. Also, I have some killer seasonings for steaks and pork chops that's great for a gas grill.

When I was in SC, I had a charcoal grill. I did enjoy the charcoal flavor and it worked particularly well with ribeye steaks as it is a slower cook. IMO, ribeyes taste better on a slower cooking charcoal grill rather than seared on a gas grill. I'm thinking about getting a charcoal grill to compliment the gas grill. As you mentioned, there's a lot to be said for charcoal flavor.
