Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[TN-POSSUM]

I missed every TN game last weekend and wanted to watch at least 1 of them tonight on the app.

Which game was best in the regionals?

Were they making plans for their next Disney outing, while still in the park?

It was the 2nd day of 26,000 steps, baby in stroller, post fireworks - the crowd exiting - when I had to get mad and say 'if you dont get out of my way, i'll move you.' Crowd oblivious to parent with stroller, moving toward the rides.

It was at that point that I was done. And there was a whoooolle nother day.

My sister in law planned the routes acc to best ride times, fast pass, and all that crap. So, slow strolls, enjoying the time, side games were all lost on ping ponging from station to station.

Never ever again. Dollywood for me:

I pay for the premier pass to walk on everything. I told my wife that if she wants me liking Disney, we can’t be there for twelve hours at a park. Now we go from about 9-2 and knock out all the big rides. Then head back to swim. We all love it and actually enjoy a vacation now. But if I am at the park late, I’m in a mood. Ha

Magic kingdom since she is pregnant. Many rides she can do and get the most for your time. If one full day.

Half day - enjoy the resort if staying on property. Pool, events, restaurants. Maybe hit up Disney springs to shop.

My wife and kids love Disney too much lol

You're the second to mention Magic Kingdom. Everyone else I've talked to said Epcot.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Can you name the movie?

Living rent free

Yet if he watched a couple of Corbin press conferences he'd start hating them too.

Its all dumb tribalism. Baseball people can be the worst about the moral posturing and "class" nd unwritten rules of the game.

Its a game. Let people be emotional and let kids have fun.

Epcot is the hottest (no shade) and meant for drinking. Doubt your pregnant wife wants to melt and not enjoy the best thing to do (drink). Ha

Caitlin Clark is a great basketball player...Angel Reese is pure dog..

I know you don't mess with TikTok and the other social media spots much, there is one guy that does lowlights for Angel after every game and he's coined what I think is the best phrase of all time, "mebounds" since somewhere north of 50% of Angel's rebounds are coming off her own missed shots.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Disney folks-

If you were going to Orlando with your pregnant wife (2nd trimester) and only had 1 full day to do something amusement park-related, what would you choose?

If you had half a day to do something Not Disney, what would you do? (Museums, parks, aquariums, shopping, exploring, kayaking, etc)

Fishing could be an option if one of you Floridians wants to pick up a fellow moran at the hotel....

I'd do Animal Kingdom at Disney...and the half day I'd likely head over to Disney Springs for shopping and exploring.

I say Animal Kingdom because it was the most shaded of all the parks, less crowded and had more mild rides as well as fun shops.

Also Orlando has an IKEA and that's a fun spot to shop, my wife loved it and I actually enjoyed it myself.

Last game against Wake and I thought the game against Cinci was fun.

my favorite thing on social media right now is the guys that are betting big money on her missing her first shot. They have hit at a pretty high clip.

She must have the mouth of a sperm whale to leave a mark like that, . . . water hose/golf ball type of girl.

Would that be a 50 foot water hose

I can't imagine what someone gains by being a long-term troll. I love Tennessee sports and enjoy interacting on Volnation, and I still can't always find the time. I don't see the point if it's just to troll. To each their own, I guess.

I never introduced my newest addition. Between football, basketball, softball, and baseball, she's had several games to cheer for.

I like to troll the Warhammer 40k nerds on YouTube...it's got a ton of very interesting and very creative lore, so I've been watching hundreds of YT vids learning about it...but the uppity smartaleck jerk nerds in the comments kill me with their stupid arguments and asinine comments, so I post a lot of pure contrarian stuff to get em worked up...and then lmao when the hornets get all mad and start to swarm.

I assume that's why trolls here do the same exact thing, but I don't think it's Tennessee fans, I have always believed they are rival fans pretending to be Vols that are just here to piss us off.

Now as for the Idiot Margin-Legion of the Miserable jackass contrarian jerks on here, I don't think they are trolling...they are just pure dumbass jerk -for-brain morons.

 

[Batman1948]

I've noticed now the Managers wait til the game is out of hand on scoreboard , then bring in a Joe KElly type of pitcher and then give him the okay to drill the batter in the rib cage with a fastball.

The best way to stop pitchers from throwing at a batter intentionally is to swing at a pitch and let go of the bat at the right moment so the bat comes close the mound.

Aww...what a cutie!..

We've got two more grandkids coming in middle of November...one is finally a girl and one is a boy.

So that will make four grands, 3 boys and 1 girlie total...how much do you think that lil peanut girl will get spoilt by us?...lol.

One of the boys is my step-grandchild...but we really love that kid and spoil him rotten too, he thinks we are awesome and loves to come stay with us.

We made it home at 10:00 Knoxville time, last night. It was a great experience and I'm glad we did it but we saw so much in such a short time, I'm having a hard time remembering everything we did. Luckily, I took close to 800 pictures and I'll post all of them for you guys over the next few days.

*GBO

Did I mention we rescued a baby possm on our propoperty? I'm told now that we've provided care and feeding....it's now a lifelong pet.

I love Epcot. My fav park. And good to be there at closing for them fireworks.

I went to the town (drove through) but didn't have much chance to explore. I did come away with a nice shirt and blanket though.

We spend very little time in tge town of Jackson, we usually just drive down there once to go to Albertsons to get groceries for the week, and maybe one night to eat at the steakhouse we love, but when I say Jackson "Hole" I mean the "valley"...which is what "hole" really means.

We are staying in a 120 year old cabin at Colter Bay village, which is on Jackson Lake inside Grand Teton National Park...it's about 40ish miles north of Jackson and gives us close access (18 miles) to the south entrance to Yellowstone..

I'm so excited to go back I can't stand it...the last time we went was in Sept 2017 and my middle daughter and SiL couldn't make it, but this time the whole family will be together on trip for the first time since 2012 when my Boy went off to college.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Apparently @Enki_Amenra knew the owner of Million Dollar Cowboy Bar, and Wort Hotel.

Eat a good burger, fries, and beer brutha.

Just remember, most of people working inside the park, are good people. Same for GTNP. Likely sharp, astute hard working blue collar folks. In fact majority of people I worked with out there had tons of sense.

<-- Whoops, meant to give you directions to a point of interest, thought might resonate.

I think we all know what 'hole' means. BTW, what's the name of the steakhouse?

He's cute and even uses the litter box but I needed another 'pet' like I need another hole in the head.

That possum will keep the ticks, roaches, mice, ect. knocked down for you. He should be pretty useful pet to keep around. I don't know why more people don't own one.
