Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Theshag]

View attachment 457561It’s been a Monday for me. My son broke down on interstate 40 right passed the crab orchard exit. I’ve spent all day getting it home, bad water pump. But this is an ordinary picture right @InVOLuntary? Chevy carrying a Ford home?

Those older Rangers are great. I'm sorely temped by the Maverick, which I think is about the same size and gets 42!!! mpg city in the hybrid version. I don't need a truck for anything, but I want one.

McGill always comes in the paint strong.

He REALLY hates wheelies! lol.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

They're annoying but the cops literally fried the dude. He weaved away from them and stopped for gas and the dummies fired a taser AFTER having knocked over the bike and being aware that they'd just spilled gas all over the place (even shouted on his bodycam footage that there was gas). The officer then fired his taser into all of it and set the rider, himself and 2 other cops on fire because he caused a vapor explosion. The rider however is the only one that got burnt to a crisp. They have charged that cop with misdemeanor negligence and tbh, I don't know if it's the only thing they had or what but it seems like that's pretty low considering he set everyone including two other cops on fire.

I just genuinely don't get a wheelie being a felony though. How is a wheelie a felony???

I tried to tell you...

We were going to Busch Gardens from our home in Clearwater one saturday, me the wife and our kids who were 9-10-12 at the time, and traffic was pretty heavy, four lanes wide going about 75-80 mph...when one of those idiot packs of 4-5 crotch rocket imbeciles came roaring weaving in and out between all the cars...roaring or rather that high pitched winded out screaming noise those things make..all of them on one wheel...just showing off..

I was in the middle lane with a mid sized car slowly passing me on my left, while I was passing a truck on my right with vehicles in all lanes ahead and behind us...when the idiots came through. The guy that screamed in between me and the car on my left gunned it and hit a wheelie just as he was going between me and the car on my left, startling and causing the elderly woman driving it to freak out and swerve to her left towards this concrete barrier..


So of course she then over corrected and came towards me, causing me to slam on my brakes and swerve to my right..etc etc etc..

I hope maybe you can picture that in your mind and understand it's not as innocuous as it sounds..idiots like that doing stupid like that are why laws like that get made.

Those packs of idiots were doing crap like that all over Florida...it wasn't just "annoying"

Sure...that's what I said.

Politicians especially at the state level, are far below average intelligence. Not shocked at all they made a wheelie a felony.

As for the cop, clearly he falls into the politicians' camp when it comes to intelligence, but I don't know that he deserves a strong criminal charge just for being a moron. It's a lot different than shooting someone knowing full well you're probably ending their life. He probably thought in the moment he was using restraint by using a taser instead of bullets. He just lacked the intellectual capacity to understand the consequences of using a taser around gasoline.

I run people off the Howard Franklin bridge all the time. That's half the fun of visiting Tampa.

 

[VolGee4]

He REALLY hates wheelies! lol.

Doing a quick search, it’s only a felony after a third offense. Driving like that can also result in other crimes.

Doing a wheelie in TN falls under the reckless driving statute.

Lipscomb should have been named Player of the year. That's criminal. The SEC had Co-Players of the year and neither is Lipscomb. He has the best stats in the league.

Here are Dylan Crews stats: He leads the SEC this season in homers (21) (tied with Trey) and runs scored (63) (Trey had 61), and he is No. 2 in the league in triples (4) (Trey had 3), No. 2 in total bases (155) (Trey had 158), No. 2 in RBI (67) (Trey had 74), No. 3 in hits (76) (Trey had 74) and No. 4 in slugging percentage (.705) (Trey slugged 0.749).

Dischiara hit 0.382 but had 17 HR and only 47 RBI. He also only scored 46 runs and slugged 0.781, which is very good. Still, he walked so much, it impacted his power numbers. His average also fell from 0.446 to 0.382 in the last month and he went 8 for 42 in that span.

It is somewhat arguable, but I think it is clear to me, that Trey got snubbed.

Spyre rocks!

Dang. Headed to the FL panhandle in a week, but it doesn’t ship for 7-10 days. Wanted to fly it on the beach

I’d guess he has a real life. Unlike some others with thousands of posts.

Lotta skydiving, swimming with dolphins…lines with dwarf hookers? All those activities us’n opposable thumb bullies don’t have the whole extra seconds for?

I mean IDK. What he did was definitely not out of malicious intent but still burning someone to a crisp is one of the most hellacious acts you can commit against someone -- it's there with rape, murder, and general disfigurement. The rider, regardless of being a menace on the road, may not live given the extent of his burns and will have to have his skin peeled off daily for a very long time. What that man is going through and will continue to go through for years (assuming he survives) is far worse than any criminal penalty we have on the books.

I wonder if Florida has a felony negligence law and what the penalty is if they do? Negligence definitely feels like the right charge but just a higher degree of it than misdemeanors tend to represent. It's less about the penalty and more about the seriousness of what took place.

It's easy to do when that ford is the size of a power wheels.
My ford would carry both.

If you mean failing in the Champions League again, then, yes.

I think our take is far better. A wheelie tends to represent no more than a young man trying to show off. It can definitely be reckless but it shouldn't be something that prevents your employment or other opportunities down the road.

Saban's great fraudulent lie of a legacy is in the dirt. Saban bought and stacked classes by cheating with impunity. There is literally no evidence that Saban can win without being allowed to cheat. I say this because I see Skankey and Finebaum and Kiffin out there blowing Saban and trying desperately and repeatedly to misrepresent what actually happened -- and what the real issue is and always was -- until the public is conned into believing their Saban lie and forgets what happened. What happened is that Jimbo (for all his dumbassery) told that truth that Saban has always cheated with impunity.

Never accept the fake account from a bammer. He cheated from day one with impunity. He has never won at bammer on a level playing field. His "reputation" is fraudulent.

 

[Orange.]

I see Skankey out there airing the idea of a six or eight team SEC playoff. Saban must be really really scared that he can't even make the playoffs after a few years of not being allowed to pay players with impunity. In the meantime, he has 4 classes obtained by cheating to work with.

I don't think you can use the severity of the consequences to determine the severity of the charge. If someone shoots bullets into a crowd but no one gets hurt, you still charge the person with attempted murder even though there were no bad consequences. If someone neglects to tie their shoe and trips and accidentally knocks someone off a cliff to their death, you don't charge them with a felony for negligence just because the consequences were so extreme.

He was an idiot, but I don't think a felony charge is appropriate unless you can determine he was did it with full knowledge of what would happen. I think the cop was just too dumb to realize what he was doing, and it's hard to give a guy a felony for that.

Admittedly though, I don't know the full details of the situation. The fact that he also set his buddies on fire tells me he didn't realize what would happen though. I do hate it for the burned guy though, that's so so horrible. Whatever petty crime he committed didn't deserve that level of punishment.

Cornbread in milk I've seen and tried. Don't care for it. Never saw it in buttermilk.

My mom used to mix cottage cheese with something but I can't remember what it was. I'm a pretty adventurous eater, but to this day I've never tried cottage cheese because of those memories.

Peanuts in coke is surprisingly good

So I am confused. We have some posters on here that continually spout NIL is the only factor in recruiting. The only reason a team gets a recruit is because of NIL. Relationships don’t matter now. But here we have Jordan Addison, one of the best WRs in the nation, turning down much better NIL deals to play with Caleb Williams at USC.

USC WR Jordan Addison received higher NIL offers from other programs, per report

It was a joke because you accidentally posted 3 times not over the content of what you were saying. I know packs can be dangerous on the road but popping a wheelie in and of itself should be treated more like reckless driving like TN does.

deleted. Board is acting weird today.

 

[SweetasSoda]

You ever had one of those ******* idiots nearly cause you to crash on the Howard Franklin bridge by screaming between you and the cars next to you, on his crotch rocket while popping gears and doing a wheelie at 90-100+ mph? I hate those stupod f'n idiots...they just about caused a four car pile up with my whole family in our van once. It was a miracle no one got hurt.

I don't know what story you're talking about or what happened in it...but the idiots that do that in florida (they run in packs of four to five or more in the T-Bay area) are probably why those laws you think are stupid exist...context context context.

Wow. Idiots.
