Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

@Bassmaster_Vol, I recall you lamenting the lack of moves from the Braves over the winter. How’s a 7 game lead and a sweep after the all star break sound?

Snit is managing his azz off.

 

[drvenner]

Return of the Jedi was really good! Much better watching these in chronological order for sure

Spoiler

did not see Vader’s turn to good guy coming!

I had to laugh at you using spoiler tags for a 35 year old movie. I do agree it's very good.

JMP. I added the gray bar in Adobe Illustrator.

JMP is the bomb diggity

Becoming cliche. If it isn't successful, will blame sexism.

Just like the Ghostbusters remake. Hollywood is awful

Few sequels hold up to the original if the original movie was awesome.

Dobbs to Jennings vs UGA and FL both in 2016 are the only big ones I can think of

I enjoyed the Auburn and KY games last year.

Dodged a bullet and hate to see it.


This is one of the teams negative recruiting us.

He is, ever heard of a throw in? A former multiple gold glove center fielder still has value, especially as a throw in to a desperate team.

Sweet call out though.

He’s a bum

 

[JacketVol]

Delusionals in the Braves thread think Ender is some sort of “trade piece”. Dude is bad.

Back to back GG CF has some value.

How about they try getting actually creative? Come up with some badass woman hero from scratch instead of the “replace the men” approach?

 

[Weezer]

Oh swell... now 007 is going to be a woman.

Will she be Jane Bond or does current culture require her to be James Bond. Will it depend on which gender she identifies with? So confusing.

Seriously, I have no problem with it. The 007 designation has always been ambiguous. It's not a set character, it's a false identity for spy purposes. At least that's how I've always seen it with the different actors who've taken up the role.

I agree with this to a degree. They do the same thing with race. Like the last FF movie where they made Johnny Storm black. WTH? The character was created in the '60's and has always been white. I understand diversity, but why not just create new interesting characters to achieve it? Changing established characters is lazy and uncreative imo.

The thing about James Bond is he's not quite an established character. It's more an identity. Maybe you could argue there should be a different numerical designation for a Jane Bond, but I'm not sure the point. The fact Bond is a spy has always led me to believe he wasn't born James Bond. Rather Bond is the name of whatever spy carries the designation of 007. In other words, it's an alias.

Same, actually.

It's weird when you look at the transfer portal and see players transferring from UT that you don't remember ever having heard of. There's a QB in there that was a walk-on here, and I swear I've never heard of him.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Fantastic! Glad to be wrong. However, if they want to beat the Dodgers and be serious playoff contenders, they need to add a frontline starter and another bullpen piece. I think they will.


For the record, I was absolutely right about Inciarte!

They need to add an elite closer bad!

Hate to hear it for that young man.

Can't remember, did UT really push all that hard for him?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Well, if you were expecting to get “high” off K.... there’s your problem....

I suppose I should have said "feeling" instead, but I think most people that are not smartalecks understood what I meant..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

What did you do after last Thursday though?

Lol..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Very glad you're clean.

21 years this week...all honor to God. He gave me the strength to overcome, I know this because I was weak willed before I gave my life to him. Without him I'd be dead or in jail.

I could even see with success of Blank Panther and Captain Marvel doing eventual spinoff. Honestly it makes sense. The Bond franchise had been in jeopardy before Craig revamped.

But to completely replace? That's pulling the table cloth out too quickly. Bond has a cult following. He's a smug prick.

Make a 008 and cast a woman. Keep 007 the way it is. This is dumb

How about 008-007?
