Got great news yesterday, got the results from the scan to see if there were anymore tumors and scan showed other than the one they removed there were no others. Big weight off my shoulders.
Thank you to everyone who had expressed prayers and good wishes.. Volnation power is real. Guess it has more to do with God but Volnation helps..
Charger hope ur doing ok, its been a bit since we corresponded on email..

Man, that's great Barry! Thought about contacting you yesterday to see if you had heard anything.

I go through more pain meds than Nick Saban goes thru hair dye but it works. Waiting to hear from South Carolina but still around, so calling that a win. Just happy to read the news you brought.
I'll check in on you soon though!

I thought the Bud Light Orange had an citrusy note on the backside with a light foamy head and chalky mouthfeel. Too much sweet to chalk ratio.

gonna stay with bud light con limon.

I prefer the lime also.

Be curious to see what Penny does with them.

College basketball recruiting doesn't seem to have the one-to-one correlation to success in the way it seems to in football. Case-in-point: Duke on paper had the greatest signing class in history last year. They had top 5 classes in each of the preceding several years. They matched all that with the greatest coach in college basketball history. And they wound up looking mediocre down the stretch and getting bounced in the Elite 8. Virginia wins it all with veteran leadership, disciplined play and a couple of really good players sprinkled in.

In college football meanwhile, Bama gets most of the great players, matches them with the greatest coach, and dominates everyone in their way pretty much every year. The only people they seem to have to struggle with are Clemson and Georgia, who are doing pretty much the same thing in terms of getting all of the remaining elite players and matching them with great coaching.

College football is kind of formulaic in that way, and honestly has become a little stale because of it.

Which is why people have to step outside the box more. Don't be afraid to use innovative offenses and push tempo, variance, etc. I always thought matching a b12 style offense with an sec defense here could have been a gamechanger. Stil saddened we couldn't end with Briles or Yurcich. If teams aren't willing to take risks to be innovative, then we'll just keep seeing those with the best recruiting classes win ad infinitum.

Old man giant Jake's boy.

He didn’t write it off per se, but I don’t believe any part of him ever really thought he could win this. With some PGAs lately being set up like US opens, I think his time of winning that type of tournament has passed. Last year’s PGA wasn’t set up as much like a US open.

I think Pebble will whip his ass but he’ll contend at the Open Championship.

I think that’s his future as well. Contend at Augusta and the British, maybe the PGA depending on how the course is set up. I don’t think he’ll ever contend for a US Open again. And I think he’ll only plays 6-10 other events in a season outside of the Majors.

The PGA Tour has a minimum number of tournaments that players must meet each year. That number has been 15 for years and now tournaments must be added to this number if you didn't meet the requirement the prior year. It gets a little complicated because sponsors have said if they put up big dollars, top players must play in more events.

Man...ive had bad experience with those juicys. Maybe they are high in acidity or something, but made me puke once and I just tasted pure acidic sourness coming out. Was weird.

You must be drinking bad beers.

Man, i put together a joking compilation of how many times that dude has been sacked. its sad man.

We play some of the same schools so here's another guy as a reference on this metric:

I just had a Coors Light at Chili's in Aiken, SC.

Lol. No shame in that game.

 

[GoVolsDR]

Nobodexpress ran a pretty good race without a jockey.

Maybe bigjake meant we’re on decommit watch.

 

[Devo182]

Hope FF doesn't see this or their eyes might start bleeding. They can only fathom JG dinked and dunked all season, because that is how they feel about it. Their collective intuition is spot on, clearly.

Anybody know what’s up with the paintball course thing? Just having fun? Also any potential pops this weekend and is any of them official visits?

If you can't take paintball hits, you won't cut it in our practices. Next up is shock therapy, then a game of bloody knuckles with Ving Rhames for the final test.

He went from taking an insane 5 sacks a game to less than 2 last year. I'd argue he's already taken a nice, first big step. But yeah there is certainly plenty more room for improvement.

Don't counter narratives with stats.

You must be drinking bad beers.

Want to say it was Wicked Weed or Hi-Wire idr. But they should've been pretty fresh. This store takes em right off the truck of local breweries and inventory turnover is very short. Tasty Beverage - it is an entire store of interesting drinks from all over.
