It just hit me that my wife had me ask off next Friday for a surprise birthday getaway, which I was excited about, but now realize it's also the greatest weekend of college basketball all year...

Sounds like man flu is coming on. Cough cough

I use it for almost everything. The sensitivity when cranking is awesome. Have to keep in mind the no stretch so I don't use on any fast action rods. Knot tying I agree with, the only knot I have confidence in is the old polamor (sp) knot. I grew up using 12# stren and that's only because Bill Dance told me to. I've actually become very fond of all suffix lines, their mono is top notch too. I use it for my worm rods.

I hate to say Id entertain using super glue on a knot for braid.

That was a good win for Texas. The SEC has 14 teams in contention for the NCAA Tournament. That’s unprecedented.

 

[hndog609]

is that a trilene knot?

To put the lengthy career of The Rolling Stones into perspective, it would be like if, in 1962 when they first formed, a band from 1899 was still touring.

That's flat out crazy.

I always thought an underrated part of his game was how good he was at slapping the defenders hands down. Hard to tackle a guy if you can’t get your hands on him

Can’t say I really noticed that but it makes sense. Other players of that era credited him for being natural whilst employing all the little tricks. Never seemed like he took anybody’s full shot no matter what angle they had on him.

Needs some ORANGE on it. Maybe make the letters ORANGE with white trim.

Or.....a Smokey Gray hat, with ORANGE/White stitching.


*It's too much like the Chicago White Sox, Brooklyn Nets, or vandy in its current state.

You still have the upper hand, since it's a surprise. Tell her thanks for reminding you to get off so you could watch basketball all weekend on your b-day.

Boffum

Said it was likely even.

His training regimen was still way different from other golfers. You still have to lift weights while taking steroids to get jacked.

He didn’t just lift weights. He was known to do training with special forces teams or at least the people who train them. I’m not really go to say someone did or didn’t, but the PGA has tested for it for a long time. He was always huge into his fitness, to his detriment.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Looks like he's about to go teach an accounting class then a p.e. class afterwards.

 

[utvolmaniac]

who?

never heard of Wiltfong. I know of Steve Wiltdong.

well done!
Ya missed one..........She's meaner than Son of Sam

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

And then he said

"The only one that's touchin' my quarterback is gonna be ME!"

 

[Adam Sandler]

I mean...had Sampson ran a 4.38 or something he would have made a legit case for himself being the 2nd RB taken.

But running 4.4s just kept him in that crowded 2nd tier of RBs

Meh. He’s a dynamic athlete and leader. He will be one of the first RBs taken, imo.

 

[Adam Sandler]

Soooo....does that mean ZZ is eligible now to have his jersey retired?

All-time leader in steals
Won SEC Regular season title AND has been on a team to win SECT title
All-American honors

Still kinda hope he lands the Bob Cousy award. Just not sure he'll be able to beat out Braden Smith, Mark Sears, or Walter Clayton Jr.

Already been retired.

Saw this knoxnews article about Okpara in the basketball forum and thought some over here might enjoy reading it. It's behind a paywall so this link will take you to a website called archive today that I use to bypass the paywall.

Already been retired.

Edit:

They said at the time that Z could keep wearing the number for the remainder of his time at Tennessee.

Do not like braided lines. The feel on other end isnt great, and doesnt have enough give. Also, when cutting it with a knife. you better have a lair of shears. You know us fly fishing dudes like our knots. You can forget tying a blood knot with braided.

To each their own. I have really sensitive custom rods (twss) and I use 20lb power pro braid tied to 20lb Seaguar blue label fluoro leader using an FG knot. I also use a loop knot on everything. I can feel every little kick of a paddle tail and have caught a ton of fish setting the hook on a very subtle bite that I wouldn't feel with mono. I wouldn't use anything else inshore...I don't have the patience for fly fishing. As for cutting braid, I bought a little pair of scissors just for braid several years ago and they work perfectly as does the cutters on the side of my fishing pliers.
