I want to say thanks to all you guys who have given some of their life to our country.

I don't have a powerful enough word to describe the appreciation I feel for the ones who have given, as Abraham Lincoln said best..

The last full measure of devotion

Remember the men and women. Remember the sacrifice.

Straying a bit but..
We have Memorial Day for those that made the ultimate sacrifice (as we damn well should) and we have Veteran's Day for the broader appreciation. Absolutely deserved.

Just wanting to give a extra nod to those seriously wounded in action also. Losing abilities that so many of us take for granted and usually while committing the bravest acts known to man.

We love you guys and we recognize what you have done.



THANK YOU!

I just need to back away. No reason I should let anything get me that angry. AC has not ran me off.

You get angry because you are emotionally invested. Because you love the Vols.
Nothing wrong with that.
You want to discuss without caring, go discuss Japanese baseball.

Until then, nothing wrong with being passionate about the Vols.




Plus, once AC becomes professional in his drinking, like Baldy, he will just become more humorous, not confrontational :)
 
I'm still ticked that they didn't give him the ball in the Army game. They showcased Akers, Harris and Swift and passed every time Chandler was in the game
 
I'm at The Factory, some dude is wearing an Ole Miss hat... and a kilt.

Is this what you people have started doing since I left?

I don't wear kilts or Ole Miss gear. The kilt I would consider, but I have children so I would never wear Ole Miss gear.

Today I'm remembering the man who helped me become the vol fan I am today. My grandfather, Colonel Bob Register fought in Korea and Vietnam and was an officer for 20+ years. His connections with the Freemasons got me on the field at Neyland when I was a kid and I couldn't be more thankful. He's responsible for the utilization of fork lifts to transfer arms and supplies saving the Army millions. This man was stationed in Germany, Turkey, North Africa, Cambodia, and countless other places, and he earned a Silver Star, Bronze Star for valor and a Purple Heart for effects on his respiratory system caused by Agent Orange. If anybody ever goes to Tootsie's in Nashville, there's a plaque at the bar that says "Office of the Mayor of Broadway, Colonel Bob Register". Thank you to all who have served this great country.

God bless our military men, women, and their families, past and present. 🇺🇸

Oh, and a hat tip to our little hermanos down south for the Dos Equis, as I am enjoying the freedom to empty the fridge of an assortment of cerveza today...

Lol.....no offense taken at all. Didn't see this post until this morning. Had to get off of here right after I posted that. Little ones wanted me to take them down to the beach and I couldn't/ didn't want to say no. Spent most of the afternoon playing with them.

I thought so, but wanted to be sure.
