Bees!

Bees?! Dodgers, D-backs delayed by swarm

PHOENIX -- There was quite a buzz just before the D-backs-Dodgers game was supposed to start at Chase Field on Tuesday night, delaying first pitch. It wasn’t coming from the crowd, but rather a swarm of bees that congregated on the top of the protective netting behind home plate.

VN is cutting edge when it comes to hot topics!

All I'm saying is if we're going to make fun of other teams for losing to inferior squads, we better not lose to a 15-27 (11-10 Atlantic Sun) team from Nashville.

9-5 Lipscomb
Bottom of 8th
2 outs
C-Mo at bat
GO VOLS

The reality is that teams lose midweek games every year, and we had not lost one this year…until tonight.

I appreciate you posting the score for those of us that have crap going on and can’t watch. Throw him outta here, frigging troll. .

Seriously, I saw briefly someone call you a troll and I . Thank you from someone that hasn’t put you in the troll category, though that might be interesting.

I can't tell if you're trying to help or pile on. so.....

Hey, @VolGee4. Remember the other day when you were talking about Benton's? I went to their site. Have you ever tried their prosciutto-type ham? I had no idea they did that. I know the bacon is great.

 

[VolGee4]

We aren’t hitting .206 on the road. We pounded Auburn and Kentucky on the road.

She's a troublemaker/borderline troll, so you know she's just trying to get something stirred up. . .

Rabid troll. He's a rabid troll.

Until I see him on the side of the road, tongue hanging out and flies buzzing around the carcass, he’s not a good troll, much less rapid. Sigh, do better my Nashville buddy.

 

[Vols4us]

WTH

lol. Only if it was to ask Tebow the same thing.

Are you ok?

Rapid trolls?

Nashville buddy?

You're acting like you have sundowners.

Don’t think that was me, but I’m up for a conversation about bacon and ham.

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

WTH

I mean everyone said the same about Tebow and if you go back to Eric Crouch from Nebraska they were turning him into a line backer I believe.

I am me. Enough said. Pot stirrer is my entertainment. In this ONE instance, Possum 1, idiots 0. And if you did that to me in your gif, it wouldn’t go pretty for you Pal.

Ok. Thank you. I'm glad I won.

I’m not @VolGee4, but I’ve had their prosciutto and loved it from what you can get in East Tennessee. I know I’ll get the hate, but their bacon was okay.

You can take the gal out of the Zone but you can't take the Zone out of the gal.

Cal is loading up. Young talent + experienced vets. Interesting to see how it plays out.

Going to feel all the more better when we beat them

It's not us. Mathematically cannot be because we are batting well above .306.

Wow, good to know.

I'm not a big charcuterie board kind of guy. And I didn't know anyone in the States made prosciutto. Also, I see that they have country ham. I absolutely loved country ham and red eye gravy as a kid. Can't find any that tastes like the original anymore. Maybe Benton's? Have you had that, too?

Little man about to turn 2 on Thursday. Where does the time go?!View attachment 637877View attachment 637878

My little girl turns 2 Friday. Time really flies.

Damn good series.

If just talking LBJ, the dude is almost 40. MJ never saw a winning record at this age.

Jokic the best there is right now.

Lebron is great.

But he’s also 6’9” 275 and plays in vastly differently officiated game.

 

[Adam Sandler]

LeBron has traits of Shaq. Shaq was a tremendous player, but he has said in his own words he was not singularly driven like Kobe. It took guys and good coaches to push Shaq. People don't describe Shaq as the goat, but for a time he was the most physically dominant player.

LeBron doesn't have people who can push him like that because he has a gravitational pull like no other. He also seems to want to control things, but dislikes blame. He is still great physically and unmatched longevity wise, but he's not the guy I build a playoff team around.

At least Shaqs personality is likable, athletic ability aside. Lebron takes himself too seriously, yet the way he handles his “greatness” is not always (or most often) the most respectable. I had respect for Shaq even if he wasn’t the goat. I don’t remember him being “a whiner”, which is a way I would describe Lebron.

Don’t think that was me, but I’m up for a conversation about bacon and ham.

It wasn't. I looked it up: it was @1RBFjr in the baseball dugout thread. But that's no insult. He's a bright and dapper dude too. What he told me is that Benton's has a website. Now I'm wondering if anyone has tried their ham. I've had their bacon at a restaurant in New Orleans. I didn't even know they are a proud Tennessee company. Makes more sense. It sounds like from some comments here that there are lot of places to buy it in the great state. But they do ship, apparently. Have you had their country ham or prosciutto? Or do you have a go to place for country ham?
