Pig is going to be fine academically. He was in much worse shape with his academics last summer and it got fixed fairly quickly.

I was about to say - if you've 1. attended classes (or have a legit excuse as to why you've missed them) and 2. are willing to work then most instructors/profs etc will work with any student. There's no bias towards athletes at all. However, show your professor that you're willing to work hard or put in extra work and it will work wonders.

Instructors, lecturers, professors and even TAs/GAs don't want to fail you if you're a hard worker. If you remain anonymous then it's easy to submit a D or an F but if you actually talk to them most will work with you. Some are pr!cks but most aren't.

College professors understand that knowledge of a subject can be demonstrated in many ways. I know from experience as I had some students (regular ole students) who were absolutely brilliant in class when talking about the subject but surprisingly awful test takers or if they took tests well they were horrid at papers (I got to the point where I could identify the traits of dyslexia, there are certain things that are common in dyslexic writing, and recommended more than on student to disability services for help). There are other examples too but y'all get the idea.

Dammit Prof, I'm a doctor, not a stenographer. Don't you know that Tanglorian Lung Flu will destroy a man's will to attend footbal games?!? There are truly things worse than death, and this is one of them!

Bass players rule.

I thought this was funny:

Per my husband (former made-money-playing), a bass player is a guitar player who can't sing but has a pickup truck to haul s**t around. :) Note: this has authenticity, because he can't sing worth a damn, and he used to have a truck. He's 43 years older than Catbone, and at last count we have 14 guitars/dobros/basses, please God no ukuleles, plus my electronic piano. (no room for a real one :cray:)

Catbone, regarding your umm dilemma, I have to say I'm amazed. All I can say is that girls these days must have lost their minds. Good luck to you and your band, and your umm dilemma. :hi:

Oh, one more: Q: what do you call a musician without a girlfriend? A: homeless

Listening to Clay Travis rant about how the Titans need to draft Mariota and compared him to Steve Young. How does this guy have a job again?

Let's go Titans. Make a trade happen. If the Rams can get 3 first rounders and a couple of 2nds to move from number 2 to number 6 then surely the Titans can get that much. Just dont go below pick 12 and NO Sam Bradford!! Would like to get Fletcher Cox out of the deal.

Haha thank you for your kind words! I can't sing very well but I can hold a note somewhat, we all do a little backing vocals. That's pretty cool about your husband! Sounds like he's a well rounded musician.

Ya know, I would have never posted that.. detail.. about myself had I known I was going to put a picture up of us. Oh well, it's lame but I'm an open book.

Haha I like this one myself: How many bassists does it take to change a lightbulb?
None, they're all too poor to afford the replacement.

It's the only way. Not only will I burn it all but I will stay voluntarily quarantined in a sealed room until I'm medically cleared and even then I'll go a week longer just to be sure. THAT is how much I love you guys and gals.

It's the right thing to do. Fortunately the treatment is high blood alcohol levels, so remain well hydrated.

Yes.It.Did.Happen.

Never forget the embarrassing depths that kiffooley took Tennessee to.

Never forget. Never forgive. It is Old Testament time! Eye for an eye, etc.

kiffin is first because he set this up. I want to see saban lose his mind on national tv while screaming at kiffin. See kiffin floundering because he has no answer for Tennessee's Defense. I want to see KMac block a desperation last minute FG attempt (his attempt to prevent a shutout). With Tuttle scooping the football and going 60 yards to score with the Tennessee Defense absolutely demolishing any bama player that gets within 10 yards of Shy. The announcers actually saying WTF as Shy and the D actually walk the last 10 yards singing Rocky Top.
15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty on the extra point attempt. Aaron Medley lines up for the kick, but gets a lateral from the holder and converts a 2 point conversion pass to an unguarded Ellis in the end zone.

DeBord then holds up a Sign that says one down two to go. Somewhere both dooley and hamilton lose bowel and bladder control... :)

Did I mention that Tennessee 's first offensive play is a 75 yard rushing touchdown by Kamara? :)

Football revenge is best served on national tv... :salute:

In other words we are TENNESSEE.:rock:
