Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

[Cosmo Kramer]

Not sure if you remember but I had to come home with an unwearable shirt after the gator bowl.

Front: Straight outta Knoxville
Back: B**ch I'm a Vol

Shirt doesn't have the asterisks. If I get arrested, I'm joining a gang and shanking someone to stay in there to protect myself.

 

[RikidyBones]

Yes. My wife and I are supposed to go with my aunt. However, they scheduled my middle daughter's GS bridging ceremony to Seniors next Saturday and my wife is one of the Troop Leaders. Waiting to find out if she is able to reschedule or if I am just going with my aunt. Where are yall tailgating?

@OGbabyaviVol wants us to get towed at Tyson Park.

Is your aunt hot?

If we blow Florida out, I’m buying dinner for us!!!

Waffle House gonna be able to accommodate everyone?

 

[RikidyBones]

We will have to find a new place to eat since your favorite is closed.

Applebee's?

Isn't there a Krystals on campus? . . can't remember if I'm confusing Taco Bell. . .

Anyway, get a steaming sack with extra mayo.

 

[Orange Studs]

what if we blow Florida out?

What happens then? Does the world end?

I will pee pee in my pants and I'll never change them for good luck and until we lose again.

Hey Volnation Bourbon affecianos - what do you think of this (the bourbon, not the gin)

Idk much about them, except that I hate gin. Does anyone like it? (Obviously some people do. . . probably bammer fans)

FSU is giving this away.

Maybe preach a little Joshua and the Israelites coming into the promised land for the first time and how you know exactly how that must have felt!

The Applebee's on Kingston Pike closed, but there's still one at the corner of Cedar Bluff and North Peters.....

Tiyon Evans a surprise scratch for Louisville. Sound familiar?

Verse is done. Brace on his leg.

If I hit that for $580,000.00. . . I'll split $50k with everyone. . . not sure how to figure the split though. . .

Verse hurt?

It can. The written word is capable of evoking the entire gamut of human emotions.

This isn't scientifically confirmed. I know a couple dozen herpetologists, some that actively research copperheads and catch hundreds a year for tagging and measuring, and they swear they don't. There's a couple that think they kinda do. A lot of other people swear they smell it every time they come across one. Our senses of smell are relative and individual. It could be a situation like the cilantro gene. Some think cilantro tastes great, others think it tastes soapy and terrible. So its feasible some may smell copperhead musk and liken it to cucumbers.

I've always been curious of this and largely disbelieved it. I have only once ever smelled cucumbers while out in the woods. I asked the person I was with if they smelled it and they couldn't, so I thought, "Wow, there might actually be something to this and there might be a snake nearby."

So I investigated. I found that we had stomped through a patch of wild cucurbits and it was coming from those plants and our shoes.

I have personally experienced the cucumber smell when encountering Copperheads several times. Like you said though, it may be a personalized thing.

I think the one at Cedar Bluff was the very first one opened in Knoxville. As a kid, you felt big time eating there.

Wright’s cafeteria was our spot on Friday nights before game day. Man, I haven’t thought about this in decades. Good times.

He had forever to throw that ball. No reason he should have taken the sack and got hurt.

"A unique trait to the copperhead, some allege, is that it smells like cucumber when it’s angry."

"If someone’s out doing yard work and a smell wafts by reminiscent of freshly chopped salad, then odds are good they’re within striking distance of an unhappy copperhead, according to the folk wisdom of some."

This is what the experts say now I guess whatever u smell is up for enterpertation.Pretty sure we smelled them based on the fact we ran up on them so there's that.

Why am I not surprised that you sniff snakes??

I’m NOT a bammer fan…

Better than dog farts or no?

No clue. But I'm not judging.
