  1. He won't leave. He will see the field this year. But if Martinez balls out this year I could see him moving on in the off season, which would be unfortunate. With that said, I don't think the race is fully over. Going to be a fun season

  3. Oh you were being serious... I left the original comment alone because I figured it was obvious sarcasm...
  4. YouTube TV has all of the Turner networks. Best decision I ever made switching. I miss having travel channel and food network, but otherwise I have yet to find a sporting event that I can't watch. All of the ESPN networks, SEC, BTN, FS1 & 2, Fox southwest, NBCSN, Golf Channel, MLB, NBAtv, CBS sports, etc. I think I even get the tennis channel.
  5. Or give Diaco a bump and a promise to run the ship when Riley retires
  6. Adidas had been killing it in every arena except this one. The creative directors on the football side of the house are just terrible.
  7. Only game I ever sat in the new expansion upper deck. Will never do so again.
  8. I have zero inside info, could mean tigers monkeys crocodiles
  9. I don't think we have a snowballs chance in hell here, but it's nice to be included in the party
  10. What happens when you're a title contender. OSU loses a game and they will drop substantially.
  11. We are captivated by a group of guys predictions on where some 17 year old is going to maybe say where he will likely attend school. I do it just as the rest, but it's pretty comical if you step back and just think about it.
  12. Can you describe for me what you consider an "assault" weapon. If youre going off of shots fired, any semi automatic weapon is to be considered "assault".Admittedly I'm totally not savvy with guns. All I meant was that it was a machine that supposedly fired many shots at a time. Apologies if I used the wrong terminology. Can you clarify the differences?Like I said above, it's a catch all term, usually proliferated in gun control groups, to make guns sound scarier. And it's not based on any specific characteristics. The short answer, is that an "assault weapon" isn't really a thing. Usually, it's just used by non-shooters to refer to semi-auto rifles that are black and scary looking, but functionally, they're no different than ranch rifles that people have used for 70+ years. With out getting to far into the weeds, below is a very generic example. The two weapons you see below shoot the same ammo and are both capable of firing 25 rounds as fast as you can pull the trigger, but would you ever classify the first weapon as an "assault" weapon? The black one just looks scarier and is what people associate with militaristic styling and therefore associate it with killing.https://www.google.com/search?q=ruger+10/22&client=ms-android-verizon&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjc-fXAw73UAhVLOiYKHTv9BHIQ_AUICigC&biw=360&bih=560#imgrc=tjQp8DEluIcXZM:https://www.google.com/search?q=smith+and+wesson+m%26p+15-22&client=ms-android-verizon&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjw4LHyw73UAhVE4yYKHVfjAIMQ_AUICigC&biw=360&bih=560#imgrc=k6HSEL1dIFfduM: Bingo. while I agree the black one isn't an assault rifle assuming it's a semi auto, I don't agree that you could fire off 25 shots in the same amount of time with those 2 guns. The one without a magazine would take much longer due to reloading. The ruger is also magazine driven, it's just not shown in that first picture I don't believe. Search ruger 10/22 25 round magazine and you will see they are the same.

  15. Thanks for all the suggestions here. I jumped for a new M&P M2.0 that I found a killer deal on. The grips are really comfortable.
  16. Exaclty. I went into college at 152 and within a year was up to 180. Just bumped up my calories and hit the main lifts. I didn't even have access to half the sh#t this kid does. Naturally strong family
  17. I'd wait til fall so there is drive for both of them in the summer to edge the other one out.
  18. That's a sharp looking weapon. Never shot H&K, but I've heard they make good stuff.
