Try The Napoleonic Wars by Alexander Mikaberidze. That seems like it would fit what you are looking for.

I've seen:

Joe Burrow torch Oklahoma.

the 7 OT nightmare in College Station

Les Miles last bout of incompetence at Auburn

But probably most impressive, I watched Mark McGwire hit homer number 45 against the Brewers in 98.

I did. I think it might have settled me on getting a laptop. I just don't know what I would need to look for in order to get the best experience for the most reasonable price.

So, I am looking at getting either a gaming laptop or possibly even a Steam Deck. I have primarily been a console gamer, but with some of the games released in the last year (Starfield, Baldur's Gate, FF16), it just doesn't seem a console would be my best bet to be able to play all of these games. Plus, I have been spoiled by my Switch and the ability to take it anywhere.

So my question is what would y'all recommend to get? I really have no idea what I am doing :lol:


ETA: I do not currently have either a PS5 or X-Box Series X. PC seemed like the best compromise to play the games that actually interest me. It may be more expensive, but it would not require me to buy multiple systems and be able to take my games with me.

Your answer is the Aubrey-Maturin novels by Patrick O'Brian. These are very much about the details of life at sea.

Definitely the Dresden Files. Might be the best audio series out there. Just a heads up, the first couple of books are kinda rough (but entertaining), but they find their groove and the series is a blast. James Marsters ftw.

Wheel of Time is great, especially if you have been on a Sanderson kick. Also, Joe Abercrombie's books with Stephen Pacey's narration is just sublime.

Bama was lucky to escape UGA in 2012 and needed some teams to lose in 2011 to get back to number two.

Not to mention that Bama needed a miraculous last-minute drive to beat LSU in 2012 as well :banghead:

And Oklahoma State to completely shite the bed in their conference game :angry:

I read the article and the guy had a problem writing about someone who is not the most (self-admittedly) exciting person on the planet. It also does not help that Brandon seems to be pretty open about who he is on his social media channels. He is a guy who loves to write and tell stories. Maybe that boring nature is what makes him so prolific?

Anyway, it's okay to comment on the author, but to comment on his family and friends in the article like he did is below the belt.

Brandon is clearly a much better man than me, because someones talks shite about my wife or kids or friends, and I'm gonna meeting a baw outside Sonic. Brandon is the public figure and discourse around him (positive or negative) is completely valid. Taking shots at his family is not okay.

I managed to snag some tickets to the season ticket celebration event on Friday. Has anyone been to one of these events before? If so, do they do autographs or anything? What can we expect?
