I think he'll be alright. Have you seen his tape in the Pats last game?

No, I haven't followed him. I'm hoping he excels.

Not only do I remember this, but I distinctly remember being so disappointed when my parents bought us World Books Encyclopedias instead because I wasn't going to be as "cool" as this kid.

We'll see how things shake out. Either we learn to be competitive in basketball NIL or we're okay with being bad.

very unorthodox swing, but he hit it straighter than anyone I've ever seen..........except Moe Norman.

 

[marksboy7]

Seen that one myself yesterday on the way home, it was crazy looking!

Well it’s true… if they all can why can’t football? @dascoop @KingVFL @Stoerner Fumbles maybe they can give more insight

I think we’ve pretty much hit our ceiling unless we make some position coach changes.

 

[MarcoVol]

I haven’t kept up with recruiting at all for football since like November. Are the Vols finally going to crack the top 5 for 2026? Every other campus program has recruited top 5 recently
Baseball
Softball
WBB
Men’s Basketball

The avg recruit rank the year (2021) we had a top 5 bball class overall prob wasn’t in the top 15. We just took more guys than most.

We could hit the top 5 soon in football by taking more players than everyone else. Need roster spots to do it tho.

Flowering Cherries, also non native. Have a very very short lifespan. The difference is the Yoshino and Weeping varieties have a short squat growth habit, then, stop growing.

Pear trees spread and infest, and cannot strengthen under their own weight. Much like a Freeman Maple.

Thank you Google McGoogleheim

We had the world book encyclopedias. One of the many “growing up in the 80s” debates

World book vs Britannica
Segal vs VanDamme
Air Wolf vs Blue Thunder
Transformers vs Voltron

The list goes on

I’m actually kind of bummed out now that I found out Britannica was more “cool”. I thought world book was better.

Who in their right mind was debating against Air Wolf and Transformers?!? Bama fans?

Well check dis out

Nevermind...it won't let me post NFL highlights from YouTube? His tape against the Bills is worth watching.

Bro, Voltron was a whole lion made up of 5 separate lions.

And Blue Thunder had Dana Carvey, Bubba Smith, and Dick Butkus in it!

 

[Jackcrevol]

Thank you Google McGoogleheim

Google dont know ish.

 

[LaagerVol]

So apparently a while back Lamar Jackson sued Troy Aikman somehow over trademark rights to the number 8 and now has filed suit against Dale Earnhardt Jr.

It’s a number. How?

And how greedy can you be?

Listen here LaagerTide, Transformers had dinosaurs, boom boxes with cassette tape robots, fire trucks, fighter jets, tanks, etc. and the goat, Optimus Prime. They didn't need to combine because they were individually awesome.

Airwolf had Ernest Borgnine and the coolest military helicopter ever. Blue Thunder was just a bunch of cops with air support.

(Kidding about LaagerTide)

That went north of me, but a very similar wall cloud went over me south of there yesterday afternoon. I was so pissed at my wife and daughter. I urged them, pleaded too go to a shelter not far from us.

I will not leave the animals we've rescued over the years, just couldn't do it. And my wife and daughter wouldn't leave me. After stalling our horse I went onto the barn with the goats and our two LGD's and **** the door.

I made my wife and daughter go into the house for better shelter...... and we rode it out. Luckily it didn't touch down.

One of these videos, the dark ominous one, is looking northeast toward the area which my small farm is. This is what I saw coming for us over the first of the ridge in the distance. All I could do was pray.

The other video is that same wall cloud from miles away after it crossed I-65 and was over Lewisburg.

That hurts

My assessment could very well have been skewed by the fact my dad was prob making me watch Knotts Landing or Dallas while Airwolf was on. And I’m pretty sure Transformers was just on cable, which we didn’t have. ABC, NBC, and CBS only for ole LaagerVol growing up
