Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Some of you are doing it wrong.

People are so weird. I thoroughly enjoy watching this squad. Always a fun game

There's nothing like catching reds. That's my addiction when it comes to fishing. I only get two weeks out of the year to go after them and I make the most of it. I only fish artificials and it's fun to find new lures that I know nobody else is using in that area...I halfway think my good fortune comes from presenting lures they never see. Topwater reds are a ton of fun too. Here's a beautiful red I landed the last time out.

Lmao if you don’t think Barnes is the best we’ve ever had in basketball, then you voluntarily are choosing ignorance. I guess it is bliss though. A specialty of yours!

We never properly appreciate them til they’re gone…and then we canonize them to the point they’re irreplaceable. Comfort is that AD White is the Dalai Lama of identifying coaching talent and will identify the eventual epic replacement. Clone him, Boyd and Plowman and I’ll die a happy Vols fan.

Very true. I knew guys that complained non-stop about “Johnny Ball,” just to hear those same people proclaim, “Majors’ defense would have shut down Spurrier’s offense” over and over again a few years later.

Sadly I have learned over the years to appreciate the hell out of our good teams. Maybe that’s why I’m a positive Polly and hate to see constant bitching about a 22-5 team

 

[Weezer]

I like that policy tbh, no sense in dropping a team that goes 3-1

A loss is a loss when there are other teams that are undefeated.

 

[Type Orange+]

Sorry if I’m jinxing, but this Vitello squad might be better than the championship squad…when all things are done. This pitching is potentially way better…JMO.

It’s never acceptable until you endure the alternative. Bless Rick Barnes!

DW is a guru.

I am the true Dalai Lama.

Danny White could make a great hire and still not have the years or run quite like Rick Barnes. I would guess guys like Dennis Gates and Lamont Paris are still in favor with their schools and have had opposite years from last year. Buzz Williams is a great coach but nothing like Barnes success, even since going to A&M. Heck, even Pearl’s one FF was the only time he’s made the second weekend in his 11 years at Auburn. Enjoy it while you can.

Clark didn't play AA ball. Went from Single A to Triple A and the majors. The Mississippi State squad Clark played on was loaded. They would've won CWS if not for Jeff Brantley getting nailed in the ankle by the line drive..

I said a month or two ago that I think this team is my favorite.

Gritty as hell. They’re awesome

I learned to water ski with a 10 foot aluminum boat powered by 10 HP Johnson motor. It was tough getting up the first time b it became easier as I got a little stronger. One Sunday afternoon, I skied from Mooresburg tn. to Morristown Tn. and back with any rest. Oh to have those days again.

My dad had 10’ aluminum John boat with a 10hp Sears engine, that thing purred like kitty. Great times, makes me really miss my dad

I’d love to play it one day……..

That “Thunder and Lightning” team…..Gator Thiesen and Bobby Thigpen as well…..

I looked it up a few minutes ago…..
Hit a homer in his first A game, first spring training game, and first MLB at bats…….

MLB hr was off Nolan Ryan…..

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Plus the best pitcher is still recovering from Tommy John surgery.

When is he gonna be available? Has Tony V said?

 

[SoilVol]

#1 Texas A&M loses to Cal Poly (1-5 coming into today) 3-2 by giving up 3 runs in the 9th at home.

YAHTSI

 

[LaagerVol]

So. . . I think I've decided to go with long pipe headers to a full dual exhaust with a flowmaster or maybe angry housewife/blackwidow or a combo. It'll be cheaper than building the engine with a thumpr cam and still give a good sound. . . and a lot less headache trying to tune the ecu & efi for the cam, etc.

Redneck level : 8.25/10

I do like the sound of this one with a cam too:


Edit: Idk, I've talked myself back into a cam. . .

Idk what I missed but ALWAYS go with the cam. Loud exhaust is pointless without a little chop chop

My guy in Titusville is David Roberson. Not sure if he's still able to guide. Grizzled, as the Marlboro man. A savant.

'You keepin' any fish.'

'Weellll, we dont want..:'

'Great, ill clean it.'

I call that a redneck slam. Red, speck, and flounder (in far right). Whatever its called, ir was fish tacos.

Mosquito Lagoon gets hit, hard. And often. Its a shame, used to be a great place.

You want a gator trout, that's your place.

I got some spots near the coast in Mississippi that are great for reds, specks, and flounder. Now that deer season is over down here, I switch back to fishing. I got a couple spots that are great when they’re running.
