Overrated

[coach]

I am bored and it is the offseason. What are some things that are overrated?

I will start.


George Strait
Star Wars
Sweet Tea

[waterboy]

I most definitely disagree with you about George Strait. I think he is underrated. They don't make music like his anymore.

Now..., if you would've said U2 I would've agreed wholeheartedly.

I can agree with your U2 take.

George is good. I listen to him all the time. I just hate when people act like he is the only country artist ever to make a good song.

I would say Star Wars is rated finely. Star Trek on the other hand is vastly overrated.

I've never heard of people saying George Strait is overrated unless they just don't like country music. I guess some people get carried away. (Why is "I Get Carried Away" playing in my head now?) George is certainly one of the best country artists ever, though. There's several very good artists out there nowadays. They are not really what I would call classic country, but good nonetheless.

I have a buddy of mine who is from Ohio and is a fan of the only two sets of Buckeyes in the country. I don't pay Ohio State U much mind.

The Pac-10 in general is entirely overrated.

Haven't eaten at Mary's yet, so I have no opinion. It's on my bucket list if I'm ever that way. I can fix a mean CFS with gravy myself, so the bar is set.

[Txbroadcaster]

You can add Sam's Restaurant in Fairfield to that list.

Was very unhappy when I finally ate at Sam's a few years ago...the place is falling apart and it was on par with Lubys at best.

Mary's..I think consistency is the issue...I have had it and it was one of the best..and then had it when it was very very meh.

I love country music and have for 70 years but I agree that Strait though not grossly,is somewhat overrated. He does a good job with Texas Swing but not versatile enough for much else. One of the best ever? Probably not.

Spot on. Next time you are in Fairfield hit me up and I will tell you about a couple of hidden gems.

[lostaussie]

Y'all are killing me the the King George comments. I was watching that guy sing Amarillo By Morning when nobody hardly even knew who was. Wrangler jeans, Tony Lama boots and white Stetsons. That was good times right there.

Over 68 MILLION records (in the US alone), CDs, etc., tells otherwise, in my opinion. But..., being one of the best ever in his genre is a no brainer. His music is not all that for everyone. That's where opinions differ. If he wanted to "change" his signature style of music I'm pretty sure he could do it. I just don't think he ever really wanted to because of the success he has had, causing no need to.

I like George's music, but I don't look at him any different than I would any other person. I don't idolize anybody, and honestly don't get how anybody does that.

Haggard,Hank Sr., George Jones and Willie are the best ever. George was a good country entertainer with a decent voice but he wasn't close to those guys. Trying to put him there is exactly what this thread is about - overrating.

I can see the first three being among the best, but I don't see Willie in the same area code. Charlie Pride, maybe? It's all just a matter of opinion. And, yes, George Strait belongs in the group with the first three in my opinion. Everybody is different. Agree to disagree. I categorize, not alone by any stretch of the imagination, GS among the best country artists ever.

Are you seriously suggesting that George Strait only has a decent voice and in the same breath alleging Willie is one of the 4 best ever?

Lol

Willie has great songs and is a great entertainer but he can't sing for ****.

[Weebe]

Willie in a mainstream Robert Earl Keen.

[speedbump]

I guess I figure two greats and a **** is better than two goods and a decent. Truth is, I've been hammered so many times for saying Willie can't sing,I just started including him in any discussion about country music so I don't have to hear how many records he's sold.

[Old Tiger]

George Jones is the best country voice of all time. I would put Gary Stewart number two.

[regaleagle]

I know George Strait personally......we were college and beer-drinking buddies at SWTSU in the 70's when he had the Ace in the Hole Band. He's a straight shooter and fine person......and an absolutely great singer. He's done many good deeds in his life and can wake up each morning and look at himself in the mirror with no regrets. George is a fine man......he even redid the Tapatio Springs Golf Resort with his own money that had become run down over there in Boerne where he lives.

I also met George Jones and Tammye Wynette once at the San Antonio Livestock Exposition backstage in the mid 60s when I was in the calf scramble there. Yes.....I did get one of the steers.......20 boys going after 10 steers. You tackle it, halter it, and then drag it across the line. I got third place.......I think I was either 9 or 10 yrs old at the time.

[speedbump]

The best ever.

George Jones and Tammy Used to live in Lakeland Florida. Their home is still for sale there. My son built a house not far from it.
I think George Strait is a good singer and I’ve heard even a better guy. We’ve run into him at Rockport and drank beer At the same restaurant so I guess we drank beer together. Lol.

The Cowboys yes.
Saying Jerry World is overrated is saying there is not a nice stadium anywhere. It's not nostalgic because it's not that old. But there isn't a nicer place to watch a game..... anywhere.

Penicillin. Penicillin is overrated.

What exactly makes SEC football overrated? Considering the national champs have come from the SEC nearly every year for the past 10 years, with a couple of those matchups being SEC v SEC.

If it weren’t for a crappy call against Clemson, there would be another one

[Saggy Aggie]

Jerryworld is a great place if you’re wowed by TVs.

Id rather watch a game at a place with some history

I asked Mike Reinfeldt once in 79 or 80 who he thought was the best receiver he had to play against and he instantly replied Lynn Swan. That didn't surprise me but his reason for naming Swan did. Anybody got a guess?

[speedbump]

Do tell

Reinfeldt said lots of receivers have speed and moves but going up or the ball,Swan would fight you harder than any he ever played against.

[bobcat1]

He seemed like an awesome receiver to start with but shortly before he retired is when he seemed his heart wasn't in it to me. Maybe I'm wrong.

Do you reel in fish as vigorously as you did when you were a rookie? If not does it mean you were overrated in your prime?

[Trashman]

I most definitely disagree with you about George Strait. I think he is underrated. They don't make music like his anymore.

Now..., if you would've said U2 I would've agreed wholeheartedly.

I agree U2 is way overrated! Can't comment on King George, don't listen to country music.
