But, he is being a hater.

If we don't...it doesn't have a damn thing to do with "Choking"

So you never watched Gallagher when you were younger?

SLEDGE-O-MATIC

The Betsy Town River Riders have elected to use this green relative of @Weezer as its mascot. I dont know which mouth breather said 'that's it! a yeti!'

Look at at this thing. Does it even know where it is? Converse went out of style in 1960's, bro!

lol I thought Elizabethton was still the Twins.

Crochet is availble? Hard to imagine.

Is Macrame still out there?

Knit 1, pearl 2; repeat

I'll eat tomatoes for my lycopene, thank you very much.

Tomatoes over watermelon? Everyone is indeed different.

Unintended..but absolutely foreseeable to those of us that could see what was coming a long time ago.

Money ruins everything

I keep reminding myself that this is what everybody wanted.

 

[Glitch]

Hey...that's my thing..lol

Yes. A good ripe tomato kicks watermelon's ***. Heck a mediocre tomato kicks watermelon's ***.

 

[Glitch]

Y'all need to stop with this puns before @frank gets ticked off and hems you up.

Even Jay Graham watching baseball

Freshmen always come back to bite you.

Cal Stark showed the correct way to make that play. Stepped to the first base side of the base then caught the ball and made the play.

Compared to the lsu catcher who caused a balk and almost lost his team the ball game.

Sorry, that LSU call was garbage.

Now THAT is your best joke to date, Byron. You should be proud of it for shole.

Eh it was kind of corny

People are shaming your Beach Boys in the music and movies forum, bud! These are dark days.

probably the same people who don't like the beatles.

One of my sons is teaching my nephew to play guitar. He seems to be picking it up rather quickly, but he has no interest in learning to read music or spend time drilling the basics.

It's only rock n' roll and it's good enough for country and the girls I date. Let him roll with it.

Yes. A good ripe tomato kicks watermelon's ***. Heck a mediocre tomato kicks watermelon's ***.

America went downhill when corporate suits traded flavor for shelf-life.

Heirloom watermelons and tomatoes are delicious. Most cannot fathom the flavors and textures achieved from the tomatoes our grandparents grew. Could eat those mfers like they were the sweetest apples you ever had.

I thought they were talking about Brian Harsin's mistress

 

[rikberry31]

He needs to do football. Soon.

 

[SoilVol]

Now if only they would ban the stupid wide tires. Off-road or mud tires I get but some of these barely fit in a lane

If you ever feel bad about yourself just remember there's guys who go into debt to do that dumb stuff to their trucks.

I think it’s safe to say this staff will never get a top 5 class. Or if they do it’ll be because Ohio state, Georgia, Texas or Bama are down or something. This staff isn’t a Urban Meyer/Mack Brown/ Kirby Smart/ Nick Saban type of unrelenting recruiting mindset and operation
So expecting a top 5 class from the staff is highly unlikely
They’ll always be 10-15 range and that’s that. Will it be enough? We’ll see. As the years go by if they can’t break through, something will happen

It'll be more of a Clemson rise imo. These classes with this coaching will get us to tge playoffs sooner than later. With the right guy at QB and lucky bounces, we will go far in the playoffs a few times. So I think a Top 5 class is 5-ish years out if it happens.

But I agree with you I don't see this current staff as relentless as them, but I think the way they're recruiting is enough

Heck, I grow them now.

Ya don't go into debt iffin' ya pay cash. Never once had a car loan, and I have some nice rides. Be your own bank.

This staff kind of reminds me of James Franklin and Penn St., very solid recruiting but not elite. Franklin and Penn St. have been anywhere between #6 and #21 on 247 since 2016. Some of those classes have been really solid. Hope Tennessee can make more noise when it comes to the playoffs than Penn St. has.
