Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I know tempers run hot in practice, but that crosses a line.

Don't ask. Just send him a $80,000 bill for the wedding

We went to visit my wife’s family for Easter the year that we got engaged. While we were there, I asked her father, mother, and both her brothers for her hand in marriage. My wife had no clue.

For months after that she kept dropping hints that I should ask her father. I told her not only no, but hell naw. No way would I do that. She got really riled up, but I wouldn’t relent. She went on about how her sister’s husband had done it and it meant a lot to her Dad. I said that Erik was weak and no way did I need permission.

When I proposed, she said yes despite being mad at me for not asking for her hand in marriage. When she called her parents to tell them, she apologized to her Dad. He asked what for? That I had asked for her hand in marriage at Easter, many months earlier.

She was a little mad, but understood that a boundary had been set.

We just celebrated our 27th anniversary. And I still do very dumbass things.

So you admit to your stubborn dumbassery.

I asked my FIL at the bank where he was VP at the time. Figured I was safe there.

I can't tell who the olineman was, but he sure was holding Jordan Ross on that play. I am not sure the jersey numbers are accurate.

Is that what "falling on a helmet" looks like? Wow!

Coach - “There was an unfortunate incident during practice. Our right tackle, Bo Dudley, fell off the top row of stadium bleachers and landed right on a helmet. Just a freak accident.”

“You can tell where the black stripe hit his head.”

-Butch, probably

I mean.... Bring him a bottle of his favorite. You have it easy man.

 

[screenthis]

Wow, I'm still reeling from the 1500m race yesterday. Just awesome.

 

[franklinpence]

I just don't know how I will able to sleep knowing that you don't agree with anything I say.

I don’t see anything he says.

That was so amazing. Usually when someone gets passed at the end that's it. Hocker just passed him right back.

The fact that the two main competitors were talking smack back and forth with the one indicating he was the best in the world made it all the sweeter when the American raced past them.

 

[Revived2002]

We will finally have the defense Sunseri promised we’d have back in 2012 - it’s been worth the wait!!

 

[franklinpence]

Aruba? Jamaica?

You could tell the leader moved over to block the other top guy and that made room for Hocker to pass him on the inside.

I may be in the minority, but spending 100k on a wedding is absurd.

Overspending on a Wedding is ridiculous. How long does a wedding ceremony last? 10 to 15 minutes.

A small fortune was spent on my first wedding. Family went all out. We Divorced a year later.

My 2nd wife and I went down to Gatlinburg on a Saturday and spent around $200 . We've been married 26 years.

I set the step-daughter straight. You got $100 for this wedding. Use it wisely. Our little shin dig at Dennys was great.

 

[highspeed]

I WANT FOOTBALL!

My dad offered my sister and her soon to be husband this:

He'd pay for both families..............well over 30 people.........one week anywhere...............
They get married and take their honeymoon any other place they wished.....................

SHE declined!
idiot...............

 

[vols 30]

I NEED FOOTBALL!

Is this wine? What kind?

Cabernet (it doesn’t specify what region) and a sparkling wine that is hidden in the pic (you can see the cork)

I think that's an exaggerated figure. When I see those "average cost of wedding" stats, it's always exaggerated. When we were pricing a wedding for 300 people in 2020, we were barely approaching 50k let alone 100k. And we weren't going super cheap.

Haha thankfully she doesn’t want some big fancy wedding. Right down my alley

The good news is I can prob get most the alcohol donated whatever wedding we do
