Any of you morans have any advice on living in the San Jose area (other than don’t do it). Company wants me to do a 2 year assignment there. They are going to cover my housing costs. California is definitely not my first choice but the career opportunity is difficult to pass up.

If they are covering housing, what is there to worry about?

Basilio saying that multiple BIG BIG BIG money boosters have told White and Plowman to reopen the NIL floodgates.

We’ve had a restrictor plate in place for months, and now that the NCAA sent the notice, it’s time to go full throttle again. I hope we do.

I liked on principle. Still don't trust Basilio.

@BigSteve09 should have my email. I’ll pay for any and all good ideas in some way or another.

What is your email, Will? I can share what I've done for my employer to help get our message out on social media outlets that has been very successful...and we don't have a product to sell or a built-in audience so it has been tough to get traction (non-profit free public service). I don't doubt that you could reach a ton of UT fans online in addition to reaching fans at home games via geofencing. Those are probably your two best spaces for getting the word out about Spyre.

Good choices. I went with Mychal Rivera.

Great talent as well.

I was looking at what Wolf did here and even though he played in a total of 44 games while here he only managed 91 receptions (about 2 a game). Despite that he was pretty productive for a TE with around 11 yards per reception. So thinking about his 6'6" 260lbs matching up against LBs or S with no help in this hurry up offense I could see his production doubling.

Claymores or GTFO.

Before the fire we had a battle ready Claymore. We also had several genuine cut ready katanas (not wall hangers). And I had sport ready tai chi swords (they will cut you to ribbons) and my favorite was a smallsword that looked something like this: Small sword

FWIW, George Washington was a big collector of smallswords.

We had so many others but those were the pride of the collection. The Katanas are so expensive now I don't know if we'll ever be able to re-purchase them.

Don't show up at @UTProf's house unless you are invited and even then, call from the driveway to make sure you are still good to come inside the house.

Antonio Brown is trying rapping. He should try to play in the USFL.
Watch at your own risk

Shannon sharpes burner on Twitter: "Antonio Brown is performing at Rolling Loud Miami 😭😭😭😭😭 https://t.co/8D0gJmF4Js" / Twitter

Good lawd Rolling Loud was a mess 😂

First Ye drops out 5 days before the festival.

Then he gets replaced with someone he has beef with, Kid Cudi. He then gets booed by Ye fans and water bottles thrown at him. He walks off after 4 songs. Poor guy. Then Ye fans start calling his name...WHEN HE CANCELED ON THEM. That's some serious simping and stanning smh. It was Drake-Frank Ocean at Camp Flog Gnaw all over again.

Then Ye randomly appears anyway for 1 song on another artist's set. Smh

Then to top it off AB tries to rap by...rapping over the actual song? Why?

They may put together a good lineup for hip hop heads, but goodness it seems like trash. The crowd and vibes especially. You couldn't pay me enough to go.

Sounds like someone that just expected...nothing to ever happen? Or was he not following the situation?

We have literally wanted to get this over with for over a year. It's finally progressing and in the best light possible, given the allegations we all knew.

How outsiders see this as a bad thing just shows their ignorance/out of the loop of the situation.

I had to drive 20+ hours a week in a previous job. It took about 2 weeks of music before I started hating music in the car (it's so monotonous after a while), been an audio book only guy ever since.

Stand-up comedy (sirius) is the GOAT for long drives. Never boring and puts you in a good mood. And not a big deal if you don't pay 100% attention.

Every time I listened to audiobooks, I'd fade off or think about something at some point and have to keep rewinding it. Trying to intently listen to important parts of books while doing the whole driving and not killing anyone thing just didn't work well for me. Good for long stationary bike rides though

Finally listened to the Kerbyson/Butch Jones podcast. That cohost guy is awful. Interjects way too much and says things just to say things.

He's his buddy and doesn't seem to really understand the role of being the "host" who guides the conversation while letting Kyler give the insight, etc. It's definitely distracting at times, because people aren't listening for Reed Bacon's take on the Vols. They're listening for KK's take, memories, insights, etc.
