Is anyone else that lives in Georgia having to deal with these ridiculous USPS issues from their new distribution center in Palmetto? I've got a really valuable package that has been stuck there since Monday...hasn't even been scanned in but the seller put an airtag in the box, so we know it's there. I keep thinking about going down there to get it, but I don't want to make a 1.5 hour drive just to be turned away.

Just to update my USPS situation for anyone else dealing with the BS delays at the Palmetto USPS facility. Got a couple updates from the seller today with screenshots showing the airtag location. First one was at a local PO a couple cities over from me and the second was about 20 minutes from my home hopefully on a truck headed to my local PO...so it's out of USPS pergatory for now. Crossing my fingers it will be delivered tomorrow. Still hasn't had a single tracking update since clearing customs in NY over a week ago. If it ends up back at the Palmetto facility, I'm probably driving down there to light a bag of dog sh** at their front door.

That's how mine did. I think I mentioned that it nevef updated through USPS, it just showed up a few days late. Terrible tracking. . . then add in reading about people's horror stories from the Palmetto facility. . . did you read any of the stuff about it?

Yeah...I've read a lot. It hasn't helped. I've got a couple other valuable pieces of mail I'm expecting but they'll come in normal envelopes...so I guess I'll get to find out if they've at least got the normal mail sorting figured out.

The fun thing with my guitar, that will hopefully arrive tomorrow, is that it technically should also have a customs duty for me to pay. I have no idea how USPS handles that. DHL sends a link for payment online before they'll deliver. I've read online that the driver can collect payment upon delivery but only takes cash. It might get delayed another day just so I can pay at the post office and pick it up. I've heard of some guitars slipping through customs without a duty being assessed...so maybe I'll luck out.

I kept moving him out and then put him back in. I might be over valuing WHIP. His is great. He's also not as bad in the postseason as I thought. He also has one of the highest winning percentages of all time.

Koufax was much more impressive in his 6 seasons of dominance than Kershaw ever was.

If you want a full career - Randy & Pedro both blow his doors off.

To each their own…

Kershaw wouldn’t make my Top 10, he might be in the Top 20.

Good lord Bob Hodge and John Pennington are absolutely clueless. Freezing cold takes.

They call James Pearce a one trick pony here 😬



Glad Brian Callahan is there to provide some sanity.

Apparently all JPjr can do is speed rush guys

Hodge also said Barnett is better lol

John Pennington is a prick and has always been negative about Tennessee on hs show. Bob Hodge should never be allowed to be on any TV sport's show. It was a waste of time and money when they expanded that show to 90 minuets.

Been a few ppl to say that about Pearce I just laugh and recognize they didn’t watch an ounce of his film, hell even some of his highlight tapes shows him getting tackles for loss in the run game.

I honestly believe there is just a sect of journalists or talent evaluators acting like they are “impartial” that stop at nothing to never give Tenn credit or their players.

My personal rank is:
Empire Strikes Back
New Hope
Revenge of The Sith
Rogue One
Return of the Jedi
Attack of The Clones
Phantom Menace

The rest, you can pretty much throw in a pile. I did like the Solo movie pretty well. Disney has screwed everything up with all of these disjointed series ( Mando, Ahsoka, etc). Just producing stuff to produce it.

1a) Empire
1b) Return
2) New Hope
3) Mando
4)Rogue One
5) Ahsoka

Airthan else.

Yeah and he keeps trashing his Patriots for selecting Joe Milton

Like dude, stfu.

They also have a segment where they talk about "healthiest TN football has been since"

All but Pennington said since 04 going into 05. Pennington tried to make the case for when we were 5-0 going into the A&M game in 2016. Like dude....we were ranked No.1 TWO years ago! We have clearly eclipsed that.

The Pearce thing is baffling. I can agree he got stood up sometimes on his bull rush, but that's it. Other than that he got held. The fact that Hodge can't see that he is more talented than Barnett is wiiilllldd.

He's literally put lineman on their back in live action 🤣 . You can just tell the clowns that don't watch the player they are talking smack about.
