Recruiting Football Talk VIII

For any Metallica fans...the show in Atlanta last night was great. I've never been a fan of Pantera or even heard of Suicidal Tendencies, so we suffered through the opening acts (less so for Pantera with Zakk Wylde on guitar) and it was worth it. My 13 year old became a huge fan listening to Metallica in my truck taking him to school every day since he was really little and it was like a dream come true for him. It was a good reminder to make those special moments for your kids happen if you can...this might be what keeps him from putting me in a retirement home one day.

Interesting to me that in Australia, C word can be a positive.

England, F word is a tinder bundle.

I'm not touching the other two.
One of my professors used to tell a story about being in England and some guy asked his American friend if he could "pinch a f*g". After a fight almost started, the guy explained it means he wanted to bum a cigarette off him.
 
The era Chipper played in, this nonsense wasn't allowed. You know what I mean showing a pitcher up after taking him out of the park. Next at bat you got a baseball to the rib cage.. it was frowned upon..plus these are kids playing College Baseball let them get the showboating out of their system.
And the Braves teams Chipper played on lost in various levels of the playoffs over the years partly because they were a bunch of colorless robots who couldn't generate emotional energy when the moment called for it.

How can you be a fan of Metallica, Zakk Wylde, and not Pantera?
 
Saw on news that some guy named Possum and his family were flying back home from Italy, and flight got diverted to North Korea..Flight Audio could be heard where he was screaming
”Refs in North Korea are not as corrupt as the SEC”.

He was later seen that evening playing golf with Kim Jong Un,where they collectively made 26 hole in ones.
 
Hilarious when the VolShop releases a new item (the new Vols hoodie) and it looks exactly the same as the other 25 from previous years.

“I think this year we will put “Vols” on the front instead of just the “T”
Pretty sure you aren't the target demo. It's the campus store...for students. I can't imagine that freshman are too torn up about whether the 'new' hoodie is different than the one from 5 years ago.
