They tried.

Short story: putting the boat on the trailer and some young idgeits in a Supra come into the no wake zone still pulling a surfer. Thankfully the wife is a better boat handler than 99% of most men otherwise it would have been a disaster. I very politely expressed my feelings on the matter. A couple of the idgits confronted me at the top of the ramp, one shoved me.

I walked away with a goose egg under an eye a bloody lip and a right hand that might have a broken bone but those two idgits were still on the ground when I got into the truck and pulled away. I haven’t felt so alive in years!

Totally subjective based on me and my pack of heathens from teen til now. We all liked to throw hands as young men, now we all have guns and usually one in the truck/car and sometimes comcealed. I don't carry though because i am stupid and have a bit of a temper when it pertains to other men. Usually have a pistol in the car/truck though just in case.
Fwiw my wife has been in more fistfights than me since we got married in '😄 She beat up her cousin...twice LMAO. First time was for disrespecting my MIL at a family gathering. 2nd time was because shes crazy as Hell and was looking for a reason after the 1st time if I am being honest. Its a miracle my kids arent super crazy and in prison...somehow we managed to raise 2 that are much better people than we were/are? Christian school and keeping them in church every time the doors are open likely did most of that IMO. We do try to always be good role models for them...but sometimes that crazy/redneck comes back from its dormant state. Sometimes people need an azz whipping too IMO.

By the way...the only WR we have locked in so far in our 9 recruits for 26...Tyreek king...ran a laser timed 4.31 in the 40 at camp this past weekend!! Hes an instate Tennessee kid that is rated 3* on most services from the end of last season. That 40 time alone will have him as a 4* as a senior though and hes all VOL. This is one thing we have been lacking. A true burner...Thornton ran that exact time at the combine and was the fastest WR last year. Thats why he lead us in TDs but he really only ran 1 route...GO routes/hail mary and he couldn't stay healthy. Tyreek is small...5ft11in and 170lbs...but he can run a full route tree. Hoping he can have Hyatt type production. He will be coming into a loaded WR room so he will have a year or 2 to put on some muscle and hone his craft before we need him on the field IMO...

Nevermind. KING is already 4*

From Article on On3:
Tennessee Football commit Tyreek King was one of the biggest standouts at the Rivals Five-Star event in Indianapolis, which consisted of top prospects from the 2026, 2027 and 2028 classes. King, the four-star wide receiver, was ranked No. 6 by On3 on the list of top performers.

“Tyreek King made the most big plays we saw from a receiver at Rivals Five-Star,” On3 Director of Scouting and Rankings Charles Power wrote. “King was good during 1-on-1s after being a late arrival. He picked things up during 7-on-7.

“The Tennessee pledge was a touchdown waiting to happen throughout the afternoon. King threatened every level of the field with his burst off the line, long speed, and elite change of direction.”

King, who has been committed to Tennessee since October 31, is ranked No. 75 overall in the On3 Ratings. He’s the No. 10 wide receiver in the class and the No. 5 overall player in the state of Tennessee, out of Knoxville’s Catholic High School.

“The Knoxville native has a ton of wiggle within his routes,” Power added. “He showed excellent speed after the catch, taking a crossing route before weaving through the defense for an impressive touchdown. He later got open on a corner route during the final 7-on-7 game, tracking the ball over his shoulder while getting his feet down in bounds.”
