Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Kirby also had / has the luxury of playing man coverage as much as he wants….

And the refs let them hold our receivers

I think we are trying to do a more budget hotel in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge. Just didn't know how bad traffic would be getting back from a night game. We normally do a cabin in Wear's valley but ticket prices have necessitated us staying somewhere a little more affordable

I found some condos for rent around $100 a night in Gatlinburg, PF & Sevierville.

That doesn't mean we have to like it or do it.

You may not like it but learn to love it, cause it's the best thing going today..

Asking me to choose between Bama and UGA is like making me choose between hanging or drowning.

Who you got winning this one?

 

[clt_tiger]

Apparently, your pupils are the last body part to stop working when you die. Yep, they dilate.

 

[volbeast33]

Exactly...but still we get guys like Castiglione [sp?] sometimes...you know we have some athlete somewhere that could do it at a truly elite level. That guy is probably playing football, basketball or soccer

Our scouts prefer guys to specialize in one or the other…. The Royals are leaning toward Caglianone being a hitter only. Another example is Paul Skenes he had a 1+ ops as a hitter at Air Force. He dropped hitting at LSU and is now a pitcher only. We definitely have guys that could do both if allowed to do both.

Kodak should have some cheaper rates in the Hotels/Motels. The leaf lookers are usually cleared out by 1st week of November.

And it's hard to argue against it when there are 15k people on the waiting list for season tix.

I have felt pretty disrespected lately. Major downgrade in parking, can't hardly get a response from my TF rep, etc, but then I consider that there are 100 people waiting in line to snatch up my seats, so I stick my pride back on the shelf and get over it.

 

[knoxvol52]

Should have this one in the bag, Xavier should just be a hat on table and Pitt is his home state school.

 

[Orange.]

I am so ready for kickoff. That is all.

Guys and gals, my family and I have been at the ER for most of the night (my mom and brother are still there, and Im about to head back that way). Any prayers you could send up, and any love you can spare is greatly appreciated.

My 85 year old granny fell last night and broke her hip; and, they're doing surgery later on. As you know, I've been living with and taking care of both her and my mom for the last 3 years, helping them both beat cancer. I was back here in my part of the house, and heard her land in the kitchen (that's how hard she hit, that i was able to hear it from my room), then she screamed something terrible. I ran in there and my heart broke. It was the most awful, most pitiful thing I have ever experienced. She was/is in bad shape, and in an extreme amount of pain.

She just got past being sick...beating breast cancer here in the last bit, and doing so with a broken back; yeah, she's been through the ringer the last few years. I just took her Friday for tests, after she felt another lump in the other breast. The radiologist said it didn't look like anything to be concerned about, fatty tissue or such; she has her Dr's appointment, for the actual results, coming up. However, the contrast she drank for the MRI broke her out from head to toe, and she was itching something fierce Friday night into Saturday; she was feeling somewhat better from that yesterday, before she fell last night.

Anyway, again, please keep her in your thoughts, if you will. She's a trooper, and one of the toughest gals I've ever had the pleasure of knowing...if anyone can get past this, and come out stronger than ever on the other side, at her age, it's my granny. I'm a hardened pipeliner, who's worked underground and around heavy equipment for most of my life, and I believe what she's been through, and going through, would've killed me. I'm not even joking! She's BEYOND tough as nails.

Absolutely this household believes in the power of prayer, as we are a prime example of it. The good Lord has been amazing to us, and blessed us abundantly. He's seen us through time and time again.

Thank you all, and hope you have a safe/great day.

Hugs

Vandy a trap game for Mizzou after that GA State loss?

Let it be so.

 

[Crookruss]

What’s the best pour for us poors? $20-$30 range please and thank you.

Green River makes a very good economy bourbon.

 

[Christian Lowe]

You're a globalist putz...I love my country, I still wanna beat the crap outta everybody else...in everything.

Guarantee you the Japanese care about where he is from...they love their country no matter what.

Japan is somewhere I’d like to move when this all falls apart. Still very nationalistic and traditional. Their main problem is not having kids, but that’s the case for the entire developed world.

But, a really bad Killer

When some says, "I'll be there on the 11th", what do you think they mean?

 

[Glitch]

Who you got winning this one?

My goodness Carson Beck is an ugly sum beach.

If anyone has any "Bowling" jokes...............











Spare me.

It is unraveling in Gainesville

 

[Glitch]

Idk, but it is interesting for someone generally not a fan of nepotism.

Need to keep the couple close to one another. TV is in the general vicinity everyday and we ain't trying to break up marriages here.

Who is Jake taylor? We need their offensive line woes to continue this week.

He was the catcher for the Cleveland Indians back in the day. Knees gave out on him towards the end of his playing career, but he had an incredible walk off bunt against the Yankees in one of his last games.

One of the reasons they are still like that is that is they don't just let random people move there lol. They are almost 98% Japanese, one of most homogenous countries in the developed world.

Not a bad thing, imo
