I know you like scotch, but I got 15 year old pappy to share when He is announced. Played 36 today and did not look at the boards today because I knew. Soon.

Beav- seriously offering you the bourbon. Love to toast this adventure

Awe, a true aristocratic. A gentleman of discerning taste. I shall raise a glass of Pappy with you upon announcement.

Oh my god there is so much wrong with this I can't even respond to it via mobile device.

All I'll say is you can get the inactivated vaccine without thermiserol if you are both worried about it and also live in or around an immunocompromised individual.

I swear, I have no idea why people pay for doctors and then pick and choose which parts to trust them on

Because Doctors are experts in dealing with illness. They are specialists in disease. They do NOT know how to live to prevent such disease in the first place. Asking a Dr. what to do to prevent illness is like asking an auto body repair tech how to prevent car crashes. He may have some tips, but his knowledge and expertise is in fixing the wrecked car. As well as his livelihood.

I have actually heard this subject discussed on public radio here in Knoxville in years past (during recruiting season) and the consensus of the media as I recall was that the LOI signed by the player was pretty well one sided to the University side of course and they could revoke it at any time.

Then I am not a lawyer as you and neither were these guys...lol

PS/ I do not believe what that poster was saying is true at all


I totally believe he was FOS, but its annoying that those terms aren't publicly available anywhere. More surprising that the NCAA hasn't adopted regulations for student athlete protections.

EDIT: Not necessarily FOS, but getting FOS/incomplete/expanded info.

You guys are definitely growing, but I don't think you'll be buying FedEx anytime soon.

It's been rumored. I know Ceva Logistics name came up too. There are 18 companies on the targeted list that we are looking to buyout and then that list will be narrowed down. We have $8 billion to spend so it is going to be possibly 2-3 different companies we buyout plus I know one will be a very large company similar to when we bought out Norbert Dentressangle and Conway Freight.

The good news is if you in logistics or know people that are, tell them to check our our website xpo.com There are hundreds of jobs from warehouse to Area Managers to Market VP's and up. Now we are opening last mile hubs all over the country and hiring General Managers across the country.
 
I love this. He did something really cool for my brothers when he was playing at Tennessee. None of us have ever forgotten it!

He is an incredible person. He is so passionate about things he has a fiery disposition and it can be almost overwhelming until you get through the first layer. After that he is teddy bear. But I’m bigger and meaner than him so...

This is also so incredibly wrong it's not even funny. Somewhere board examiners are cackling maniacally

How much would a UT logistics degree holder with 4 years of government contract program management (right out of college) and an MBA make?

Asking for a friend, of course.
 
I posted this on another site earlier and forgot to post here, but I heard a couple of things about Gruden from my friend. I had been pretty skeptical about this whole thing and scared to death that we would hire another never was. Here are those tasty nugs:

Only question I have is Mullen already got a raise/extension this year if I remember correctly. Why would Sexton be floating his name? Is it common for an AD to give two raises in one year?
