Still cannot get over the setup. What a fun atmosphere, DDub deserves a huge pat on back for his vision. Dad said he hadnt been to a game, with me since Hershel Walker played.

While I said I doubted that, it was actually Tee Martin (since we were together in Tuscaloset) but yea. Its been a minute. The man is 83. Hug on your loved ones folks. Time slips away.

This was more enjoyable than a (gulp) football game. There, I said it. I mean every word.

Champs.

Baseball is completely different vibe, you can actually bring small children. Going to Tennessee football games is like going to war, you need a day or two to recover. Baseball is actually relaxing, you don't get home and collapse.
I do throw mustard at baseball games when I am upset(I'm a Villain), just it's the single serving packs.

Proud Dad moment:

My daughter did something I explicitly told her not to do this past weekend. She called me from a local swap meet/flea market to tell me there was a booth selling some puppies who didn't look so good. I told her not to bring home any sick animals......... And she completely ignored me and brought home the sickest pup of the bunch.

I've put off posting this because the pup was in bad shape. They were asking $100 but she pointed out the sick baby and offered $20. They gave it to her and she brought it home. She was eat up with worms, bacterial gut infection and fleas. We put her up in the living room and kept her away from all our other animals. We took her to our vet the next day. She got an IV, wormer and some meds. They told us to keep her hydrated and if she made it the next 24 hours she had a chance. It was touch and go for a few days but the last couple of days she has completely turned around.

She did exactly what I would have done..... Even when I asked her not to...... She made the right choice. And she's paid for all of it out of her own pocket. She goes to school, cheers and is the only senior coordinating the cheer team for a small until school squad and works about 25 hours a week. She amazes me, is the most empathetic person I know and is better with people than I could ever be.

This young woman has decided she wants to do pre vet courses at Tenn tech or UT Martin and attend UTK veterinary school.

Juno, is what she's named this pup, she's Australian Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix...... The first life my daughter has saved. Good Lord willing there will be many more to come.......View attachment 641905

Idk. Might be pretty good. Works with sardines and oysters. Me being me, I'd prolly add a thin slice of Vidalia and some olive oil to the sardines. And only eat one (two tops) of a dozen oysters on a cracker. With horseradish. Are you saying the fish is too delicate? Not that I would prefer fish on a cracker.

Dude, nothing freaking works with sardines. Come on!!

Memories of the ol' mayo grilled cheese. Mayo actually seems to be a good substitute for butter. . .

I wonder what would happen if you mixed butter & mayo together and use it instead?

Jalen Hurd??

What about Beattie Feathers? John Majors? Shawn Bryson? Travis Henry? Jamal Lewis?

(He may have mentioned one or two) But your list was garbage, do some research.
