I’m of Mexican descent, and those people have bastardized our food, culture and music, “dumbed it down”.  Ugh, we don’t use tortillas for everything, and I clearly don’t like mixing cuisines.  There are as many different regional foods in Mexico, as there are in this country, they couldn’t even get the one region they copy right.

Where I come from, there are farmers markets/roadside vegetable stands, on almost every day of the week….and we don’t overcook, nothing worse than limp, overcooked vegetables! 

Totally agree!  Had some of the best good off a food truck in Ventura which was a fusion of Korean and Mexican food….so good!  In such a diverse state as CA, you get the opportunity to eat, and learn to cook different cuisines from the native people themselves.  You’d love to attend a tailgate at USC, you’d find lamb on a spit, Greek style, meat in every type of seasoning, our large Polynesian community cook some of the best food you’ve ever eaten, Italian, I’ve even made canard l’orange (half cooked at home, finished off at the TG) and of course, every region of Mexico.

After game….bacon wrapped hot dogs, tortas (Mexican sandwich) made with carne asada from the TG to carry into the game!

Oops, meant to quote Harbingers above!
 

 

“People have such a warped view of food culture. Don’t get me wrong some really good “Tex-Mex”, Italian American or Chinese American cuisine can be delicious. But to simply think that’s the native food of an entire country as a whole is mind boggling. Immigrant chefs fit the food to meet the very… bland or should we say unadventurous… palate of western people and over time it became, very wrongly, synonymous with the country of origin. But that is no where close to the food of many home countries and hardly anybody is willing to take a step outside their comfort zone and actually truly embrace real cultural food.”

    • I still think it's too soon to say last year's draft was bad. I think those who do are the eternal pessimists. We had 4 players who contributed last season. Two were starters. It's possible all 4 are starters this season. How is that a bad draft? I know it's because our roster was so bad but still, they are on this roster so it's the only one that counts.  Before I say it's a bad draft I prefer to wait and see how they play this season. It's possible we may have FIVE starters from that draft playing the season. Anyone who thinks drafting 5 starters by season two is a bad draft should visit a psychiatrist where they can get a prescription to help them live happier lives.    I'm not saying it was a success yet but I damn sure ain't calling it a failure yet. Most players don't make it. Most of those who do need a little time. One season isn't enough time which is why they are still on the team Leggete, Coker (UDFA but still we got him), Sanders, Smith-Wade and Wallace all showed promise last season. If they all take a step forward then it was a great draft. If only 1 does than it was an average draft. If they regress then and only then will I say it was a bad draft.  Fans often have unreasonable expectations compared to the reality of draft results. I believe this draft will shine as I think it's going to better due to the depth of the class but I also believe we will look back at 2024 and say that was a good class too. I think we have 5 players from that class who will be starters or rotational pieces for the next couple of years at least. That's a win.     
    • Playing devils adovcate here, but if you truly wanted to trade down then it made no sense to be a smoke screen for Walker only.  Especially since Tmac is not a generational type player.  Make it known that he is in play and see if the cowboys or whoever really like him as rumored. 
    • I mean everybody was, there is a difference between wanting them to draft the guy you like and accepting them drafting someone else based off all the intel and rumors. Up until draft night everybody was convinced it was gonna be walker or maybe another defensive player. If you didn't you was just crossing your fingers.
