Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I have had to work on my emotional response to football for a while.

The big issue for me is I can handle a loss or bad game etc it is coming on here and getting fired up by like minded people.

I have to regulate my reading after bad games.

Which sucks cause I love it here.

Buts it’s best for me and how I want to handle things.
I feel like the older I get hardened by the sports losses I've gone through. I've already been greatly disappointed by every team I follow, so I handled this loss much better than I would have years ago.

We also accomplished the next step for the program in making the playoffs. The level of vitriol and hand wringing was really dumb.

Now we sit here

We got Moe
Probably got Jefferson
Mike is back

Ohio State murdered Oregon even worse and they just happen too look as good as any one ever has.

So at the end of the day, the idiot margin is out because, we got killed on the road, in the playoffs, with no healthy skill players, against one of the better and most talented teams we've ever seen?
 
Anyone else confuse the movie "Legends of the Fall" with "A River Runs Through It"?
I just remember that in "A River Runs Through It" there was a close-up shot of Craig Sheffer in profile and you could see his earring hole in his earlobe, which was a bit anachronistic.

How's that for a random memory?

I’m a big bourbon guy like the rest of you, but man there’s just something about Jameson on the rocks after a stressful day that hits just right.

Jameson with a splash of ginger ale is an underrated drink as well if you wanna take a little bite off. Went to the distillery in Dublin in like 2019 and have been a fan of Jameson ever since

@Jackcrevol thought you might like these hellgrammites I tied up yesterday. Getting ready for those prespawn smallies on fly. Nothing better! This fly is like cheating and a super fun tie.View attachment 711777
That's a good one. Love the color change and pinchers. Interestingly, ive never seen one in person, only spent insects. Seen plenty of Dobson Flies.

When I was tying more used to tie a woolhead sculpin, and a bent shaft wire 2/0 or 1/0 hook with wire lead wrapped with glass shaker. Cut zonker strips up around to stop with some pearl flash, and sili legs. Barbell eyes allowed it to stand and fight, but bent shank allowed it to swim.

Dynamite for browns on move, and smallmouth.

The most dynamite 'cheater' fly ive used is Todd's Wiggle Minnow. Ive known Todd off and on for years, as he used to work at Mahoney's here in JC. Good dude.

That hellgrammite will fish.

Last time I checked Todd was running trips on a jetboat up and down the Holston in Rogersville.
