You're corny

I haven’t been really able to keep up with posts on here for a bit. I mostly skim and comment some.

I have to share with you morans the power of prayer. I’m a Dietary Director and the company I had been with for 14 years shut down last year. I was lost and burned out didn’t know what I was going to do. So, I took a step back. I worked in a couple kitchens, enjoyed the lack of stress running a food service, but I missed the working with elderly more as I got away from it. I prayed to GOD every night to guide me. I really was struggling with what I was supposed to do with my life as a 61 year old. Aren’t we supposed to know by now? A month ago, one of my old Executive Directors contacted me to offer me to lead his Dietary Department. I’ve been there for a skip and a second and absolutely love it.

In this season, my story and many more show GOD listens. Remember that in your own lives please.

Necessary? Well, folks have done it the entire time. I've never seen anyone else blamed but them. Not even sure who else would be to blame.

We're talking 50+ years of them screwing over the Student-Athletes to the tune of billions. There's no one else really to blame as the primary offender in this entire charade.

Sure, ofc it's a broad brush (on an individualized level). That's inevitable when talking such a broad case and large institutions.

But the commissioners, universities (and those in power at said unis) are clearly the culprits and have been all this time. Yes, you have your Dabos and Sankeys and then your Joshs, but it's the entire power structure at blame. Less blame now than before, but there is still a MASSIVE force at play to return things to the old way and/or to continue to minimalize the efforts for SAs.

So, eff em if they aren't 100% on board. These entities had their chances to right their wrongs for decades and took it freakin SCOTUS to show them how unlawful it all was. Shameful. Their scheme is over and done. Time to take their paycuts and "let the market decide".

No one involved, repeat: no one, is blameless in all this mess.

As for current athletes being entitled to whatever they can get, the fallacy there is that they didn't build college athletics but yet they want to be paid based on the value of the product that others built.

Like I said, no one is blameless. But if we are gonna put the executions in any sort of order, my humble request is that we start with the NCAA, the agents/handlers, and of course Alabama.

Does Cube have a chaw in?

I’ve eaten at all the Bears; Snoring, Dancing and Black (hate it closed). Had a bunch of hotdogs from the Gulf station. We tend to frequent the Abbey and Peaceful Side Social or drive back towards town to Chaplines for Mexican lately. Tough finding Townsend restaurants these days with the rate they burn down!

The Peaceful Side Social in Townsend is a great place.

The only thing I had 9 years old was Knobb Creek 9. She deserves better. So I cracked open a bottle of 10 year Eagle Rare and poured one out for Paisley. May she be prancing around and digging up bones in doggie heaven. RIP your beloved Paisley.

I noticed that. Looks like he's got a chaw in or a massive swollen jaw.

Hope it's just the camera angle and not something serious

We just got in a barrel pick of Eagle Rare. Never been a ER fan, but the barrel pick isn’t bad. Cheers to Paisley!

My man may want to use the drawing feature on his phone to block out his card number.

Bowl games are so freakin unpredictable these days. But UF sure is expected to at this rate.

I enjoy the ER. My store had a BP a few months back. I think it was a little better too. I'm waiting to hear for the delivery of their Blanton's Gold BP pick. Should be any day.

Anyone live in southeastern KY (near Pikeville) or southeastern WV (near Beckley)? I’m heading up to the game from the tri cities area. The plan is to leave early Saturday morning and get into Columbus early afternoon. However, I’m now seeing they’re calling for snow with up to 4+ inches in the mountains. Trying to see if I need to make plans to go through Knoxville, which adds about 2 hours to the trip. I’m trying to see what local news is saying vs the weather channel.
