Love that

Yeah, just struck a chord with me.

Am I the only one worried that this Boutte kid has his 2022 coming out party against our secondary, this weekend?!

It seems as though some player for another team does that when playing the Vols.
I'm not worried about this game. We have Hooker as QB & they don't.

Not to get all sappy, but some of us have sons, and some of our sons are younger…..some a little older….but this kind of struck these old bones in a nostalgic way. This is an ad, but still good stuff.

Really card, really??!!
Now I have to walk into bonefish grill, looking like I’m stoned because my eyes are all red and watery!! Thanks a lot!!

Just a side note to those that dress up & are being a mascot for a PRO team as a living ...
Highest paid NBA mascot today is Rocky, the Nugget's mascot. Topping out at 625K per year.
Makes one wonder about how much that dude for the Phillies BB team makes a year.
Personally, I was always a big huge fan of the "San Diego Chicken".

I would just wear my dark shades & nobody would notice that in the first place.

That’s some pretty interesting stuff right there.

I saw that little "nugget" at the bottom of my email from Bleacher Report this morning.
If I knew I could make a killing ($$$) by being a pro clown, I'd joined a long time ago.

For those that missed the game last night, Kansas City Chiefs beat Brady's Bucs 41-31.

The Atlanta Falcons are tied w/Tampa Bay Bucs with a 2-2 record so far.

NO Saints are playing like the Ain'ts this year & they come in with a 1-3 record.

Here is Tennessee baseball trivia question.

No googling.

Who owns the longest hitting streak?
Extra credit if you can guess how many games.


@vol66 @OldTimer probably know.

Todd Helton?

 

[MAD]

Todd Helton?

Good guess but no.

The record is from before Todd Helton played at UT.

For real, I’ve been doing it my whole life for free!

At one time, I thought of becoming a comedian bc I always liked making people laugh.
I never had the nerve to step out on a stage & believed in myself to try it. I'm shy.

My morning paper says Paul Chryst is out as the HC of Wisconsin. UW officials announced Sunday Chryst has been removed 5 games into his 8th season as the Badgers head coach.
Defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard, 39, is to be named as interim coach. Pack your bags and hit the bricks Paul .... we don't want you to coach around here no more.

The move comes less than 24 hrs after UW suffered a humbling 34-10 home loss to Illinois.
Not everyone (coach) can become another Nick Saban in college football.
UW next game comes Saturday vs Northwestern. Personally, I've always like the Wisconsin Badger football team.

Also, Colorado fired it's head coach Karl Dorrell 5 games into his 3rd year in Bolder.
