When you have a little girl, you don't get to "assume" any good intentions from horny little teenage punks anymore.While I get the defensive dad attitude to a degree, is there a reason to be an outright dick to another person and assume they have some abusive or rapey tendencies?
At times it can be odd how we treat men in society. It's like young men are guilty until proven innocent.
Then again sometimes I think I'm just ignorant to domestic abuse and such. I never ever grew up around it, men in our family are just...decent folks. Everyone I grew up around just respected women out of a normal sense of decency and basic human ethics. That said, maybe I'm just missing other communities' experiences with it being widespread. And I'm open to that ignorance.
True story...a few years ago when my daughter first introduced us to her then fiance, I acted the nicest I ever have in my life...till she got up to go the restroom, then as soon as she got out of earshot..I went from warmly smiling then turned the coldest eyes I could muster on him, and quietly told him that if he ever physically hurt her or caused her to get in any kind of trouble with the law that they would never find even a piece of him...
He tells that story to everybody, he says that he literally almost got up and ran out the door...I wasn't bluffing and he knew it.
I'm glad he didn't though, he is a great hearted, hard working and loving young man, I couldn't have asked for a better Son in Law.
If Pruitt was still here I’d be likeSIAP
Fact or Fiction: Tennessee is in big trouble at the QB position
Farrell’s take: FICTION. Normally I’d say yes with the Vols reaching on Joe Milton in the transfer portal and now with the dismissal of Kaidon Salter but I’m making this fiction because of my belief in
Harrison Bailey.
Hendon Hooker also transferred in. but I’m not a huge fan of his passing consistency.
Brian Maurer is solid but Bailey, the former five-star, is the one who excites me. The question will be if he has enough talent around him to succeed and how big a step he can take in his development. But I still believe you’re as good as your best quarterback, and Bailey is going to be good.
