Recruiting Football Talk VII

[VolNRaleighNC]

I’m going an Elite Eight of: beers in the fridge vs lawn stripes, jet flyover vs gaming moments, muscle cars vs xtreme tricks, and action movie vs finding money.

Final four of: lawn stripes vs jet flyover and muscle cars vs finding money.

Championship of jet flyover vs muscle cars

Winner: jet flyover every time.

Finding money was about the only thing that got me excited from those choices.

They need an old man version…

Things like “Sleeping thru the night without having to pee” and “When an 18-wheeler pulls in front of the douche that’s been following you too closely for miles on the interstate”.

Every post I read in BB forum about Igor is tomorrow is the day Igor commits.

That was 10 days ago.

Someone said it's like that sign in a bar: "Free beer tomorrow."

 

[rikberry31]

Ok

Yeah, to every recruit he says that.

One man gets it

That would presuppose self-awareness?

Back in middle TN for the weekend. Feels good to be home.

What are the developments he’s talking about?

Some of us are wondering if it is Aidoo's commitment.

A package of bees made me laugh..I am gonna Fedx a buddy a package of bees

"A package of bees" sounds like one of those (often dubious) collective names for animals, like a murder of crows or a parliament of owls, that sort of thing.

There are Africanized honeybees in Alabama, yes, but their genetics will eventually diluted by the the local gene pool. It isn't like they are going to take over or anything. They are mostly a nuisance.
The are not really suited to live anywhere that experiences winter or has extended periods where the temperature doesn't get above 50F. Their metabolism is very high and they burn through food in the cold. If honey is being taken off their hive in an apiary it is likely that they will starve and not make it to spring.
They can survive and can have an advantage over local bees in states that have no winter like Florida, Texas, and California as they are prolific and reproduce faster than Europeans do. Because of the close proximity Africanized bees do get shipped to other states, my BIL had a hive of them in northern PA ( he ordered a package of bees from FL I think). It would be similar to gators, they could do well here about six to eight months a year.

Dont they make more honey?

The bees, not an Alabama Karen.

We never had HVAC when I was a kid, we burned coal and wood. I cut, carried, and stacked a lot of wood and hauled a lot of coal as a kid. I went away to college, Dad put in HVCA.

My dad did the same when my sister left the house except he installed a dishwasher. Ha!

I went and helped a little!!

She's moving the goalposts now. Her dislike of DW is no longer about his performance as AD but because he doesn't represent UT with class. Others seem to agree by liking her post...so there are a handful of folks over there that don't seem to be living in reality.

I admit to know nothing on this topic. Other than baseball dudes think it is dumb and teams like Florida can lose forever and still be ranked.

There are populations of people who don't like people in power. Especially if those people in power do not look like them.

So Mitchell wouldn't let Saban get him in the Porthole?

Is that you Angel Reese?

Oh, I get the consternation. I just don't see many project QB's becoming THE answer. I think Penix can be a franchise guy given the right development. It comes from watching Green Bay do this right for a number of years. I agree on trading down and waiting a year or two on drafting a QB if they saw one they liked coming up that they could trade up to grab.

Penix IMO will be RGIII 2.0.

Reminds me of Tyrod Taylor. A little mobile, good arm, but kinda fringy starter who’s never healthy.

I cut my neighbor's kid's hair this afternoon.

She's mad I gave him a mohawk. . .

(That first one is gonna be my version of @SmokinBob 's owl gif, )

Feel bad for the kid @Jackcrevol @knoxvol52 @volbeast33 how much you wanna bet this premature move has ruined the kids confidence and possibly his career moving forward

Coming from the guy who was against it in the very beginning..now’s he on the record of poaching…..poetic

 

[Weezer]

Ok

No one is going to try and hire him away after seeing that train wreck, so unless Colorado wises up and fires him, probably true.
