I don't know, man. I've lost some confidence in this team. Lots of issues exposed.

Even worse; other teams are always out to knock off somebody at the top; and when they spot weaknesses to exploit, it's like sharks and blood in the water. Not sure there is a comfortable game from here out - especially if some of the holes don't get patched up quickly. All the "lesser" teams are going to be taking lessons from what happened to us and to Bama at Vandy. It's like a triple witching hour when you have some weaknesses, develop lack of confidence, and other teams figure out how to exploit them.

The southernmost point (or buoy cam) in Key West is always interesting. Last night the waves were high; today they are even higher, but the cam is covered in salty spray so visibility is really limited.

Why am I not surprised to see people walking around the buoy right now

The buoy attracts a lot of crazies - especially late at night. I've watched people climb on top - sometimes with ladders. There are topless times late at night, too. The interesting thing though is that you see couples hand a camera or phone off to total strangers (often you can tell of other nationalities) for a picture together. There seem to be a few jerks, but for the most part it's nice to see strangers working together. I don't check that cam out much anymore - usually now just when there's a big storm brewing.

The most watched/followed plane on the radar tracking sites is TEAL32 - and AF WC-130J cruising around about 10,000 ft through the hurricane. You have to have a lot of respect for an airplane that first flew in the 1950s and has been used for all the kinds of missions that the C-130s take on.

Just watched a program on Smithsonian channel devoted to the Hurricane hunters plane.
Very interesting.
2 planes. Kermit and Miss Piggy.
They alternate rebuilding each every other year.
No extra reinforcement added to bolster the structure.

Been a week and a half of ups and downs...

My truck got stolen last week...

But was recovered yesterday after the idiots that stole it were still driving around on the 7 year expired tags...

And managed to get it running again with a lawn mower battery...

But it's recovered...

Tara Dog got a pain shot last week that seemed to really help with her joint pain...

But she started urinating blood yesterday...

They think it's a dog UTI, so, she's on antibiotics...

I too have had my truck stolen and got it back a week later. Abandoned when they ran out the entire tank of gas...speakers blown, lots of stuff stolen from inside..but I was happy to have it back. Congrats.

On more serious matters...really hope the dog gets better man. Thats family, and I am sure shes a Goodgirl too. Hope things get easier soon GV. Happy for the new job too of course.

Yall see this?

This is just 1 play. I get that. But what in the absolute Hell is that? I could get around that right now at 47 years old, and I havent put pads on since HS. If a Tackle moved that slowly on my jr high team, he was 100% on the bench for the next snap. Every time. I mean that. What in the absolute Hell was Elarbee doing? Heard should not have even travelled with the team if he cannot run and move laterally faster than that. Johnson should have started. Davis plays Tackle much better than that and he is our 4th Tackle. He has about a dozen false start penalties though in limited duty. Yall remember I am sure. I have watched game tape and our tackle play was abysmal. Campbell and Heard were by far the 2 lowest rated players on the team. This is insane though. If he is still hurt that badly or too out of shape, he never should have seen the field at all.
