We are getting set up so hard to be punked. I hate it.

We have played NO ONE worth a darn. These numbers are meaningless.

True. On the flip side, we’ve played similar level opponents in the past and the DL has looked much worse doing it.

While we don’t seem have any world beaters on the DL, I’m at least impressed with the depth there. I think Heupel inherited a better bunch there than the previous HCs. OL is a different story. Our starters appear at best middle of the road, and the drop off from there is tremendous. Probably similar to what the previous coaches inherited.

😯 That’s amazing.

VN… You may be hard but are you “Vigilante Nick chasing down delinquents in the backwoods of Malaysia and getting cut” hard?

It was actually inner city of Malaysia. Lots of poverty and gangs, which is why I was there. Thailand was more of the backwoods

Hope everyone has had a good week! I’ve had a blast… Went to Disney to only find out the day we arrived that my wife has Covid. The g-parents took our oldest so we let her stay with them at the resort and we got a hotel off property. Decided to stay to see if symptoms went away and we didn’t catch it. Tested my littlest one and myself after losing my smell and came back positive. So we headed home. So Covid ruined my second child’s birth with a false positive and kept us on quarantine and now ruined a Disney trip we planned for a year. I am perfectly fine with a little fatigue and congestion and my one year old had a fever and has been perfect since. To say I am over Covid would be an understatement. And yes we are all vaccinated and we only eat outside at restaurants and wear masks everywhere. So I’m jumping on the wagon that everyone is going to eventually get this thing and live your damn life.

Man that sucks. We are planning a trip out West for next year. I’m fearful that is what is going to happen to us.

I have seen several media pundits trash the Vols for dropping the Army game for Akron, and I think that is a bunch of BS. I can't blame an athletic director for wanting to protect players by avoiding a game against a triple option team like Army of Georgia Tech, especially when those games can only negatively influence a season. If we win- so what? We were supposed to. But the likelihood of injuries against a scheme that literally relies on cut blocking players' at the knees to succeed just isn't worth the risk when there is no real benefit. The only games on the schedule that matter are SEC games. The only time we should take a strong out of conference opponent is if they are good enough that a win gives our program some credibility. A win against Army wouldn't really boost the Vols. Juice ain't worth the squeeze

I couldn’t care less what anyone said about it. No one cares about dropping that game 8 mines after it was announced. Let’s go beat Akron

No. Its a cowboy western video game set in the late 1800's in the western and southern frontiers. There is camping, but its a survivalist action game full of beautiful environments. Its immersive enough that playing the game for a couple hours can feel like you've been there, same with any other media. But the goal is not camping.

I used to camp all the time with my dad. But we live in Louisiana, and camping is less than ideal here most times of the year, and driving the 3 to 6 hours to decent spots isn't really practical most weekends, especially while my wife was pregnant. So a couple hours on a video game in my living room had to suffice. Hope this clears that up.

We talking RDR2 in here?! Easily my favorite game ever or at least my favorite that I've played in the past 5 years. I don't play many video games but this was completely worth binging for 3-4 weeks at the start of quarantine. I got bored the other night and fired up some Mario 64 but it just wasn't as I remembered and I kept thinking about how much I'd rather play RDR. Hope RDR3 is as good. This game is incredible.

People like him are mentally ill. Having said that, when caught, people like that need to be castrated, sodomized and killed. They are life destroyers in the worst possible way.

Yeah….. there are more people like that then I ever imagined…..when I first got the internet years ago…..I had joined Microsoft chat which people could make their own groups and talk with other people about whatever topic was in the header…. There was always 4-5 groups involving people trading under 13 sex pics…..They we’re always full of 35-40 members at a time( the most you could have)….. I was shocked how out there in the open it was and how many people were in the groups on Microsoft board.
