    "Eat at Del Frisco's" doesn't quite roll off the tongue like "Eat at Landry's".

    Holy sheat! Now he’s gonna go for the Texans next. Del Friscos is known for catering to the Texans.

    Exactly what I was thinking. Though this could provide cashflow vs a first round pick which does not generate any cash. Stars like Westbrook generate cash.

    Excerpt from his book on the effect Del Frisco's had on another steakhouse he had acquired, Morton's:



    I've been to both steakhouses, both for work functions. I think Del Frisco's is still a little hipper than Morton's. Both have mediocre food. Both are overpriced. They are perfect Tilman restaurants.

    He is going to be very surprised when he hears of this decision.
