Not really fair to all the teams that played a real schedule.

Well if they have issue with it they can't take millions of dollar pay cut to join a crappy conference

This was the perfect opportunity to show that a non PROFIT team can't have it. They would ha e to get through 2 games I. A row with the big boys. Oh well, Viva El Cartel!

Actually it's a hidden bonus character from WCW Nitro on PlayStation1

Wrastlin again!

Always brah

Muhahaha

I have no idea, I was at my 30-year high school reunion.

They both suck equally 

That was not an option.

It's 2nd and 20. They weren't showing any sign of a blitz and there is a single LB in the box with a single high safety in-between the hashes. It's about as good a play call as you want...The RG whiffs on his block so the DT is plugging Adrian's running lane. The pulling LT can no longer pick up the Mike because he's moved past the B gap with Adrain as he bounces outside and the play is dead.

If our guard actually makes his block the pulling tackle picks up the Mike, and the OLB is late to fill because of the PA. Adrian is one on one with the safety for a solid gain.

It's a good play call that was set up all game long. We just broke down at a key position.

2nd and 20 and our go to play call is a pass that requires 5 yards just to get to the LOS.  You can break it down all you want.  It didn't work, nor has it in any clutch situation this season.  Hence losses to teams we should have beaten.  But yes, in theory it's an awesome play if you have the personnel to run it.

So again, coach the team you have.  Not the one you hope to have in 2yrs.

Uh, no. It's one in a series of plays that gives the defense a single look with 3 possible out comes that they've seen during the game/season: the swing, a deep pass, or the QB run. It didn't work, but it's a pretty basic play that we have the personnel to run. If we can't execute a basic block then we can't run any play. 

It's the theme of this entire season in one play. Inconsistency. 

And no to the tens. First time I've done this in a long while.

If you ain't drinkin' heavy, and poppin' pain killers you're doing it wrong fella....

That sucks, just found out on Tuesday that the back pain I've been fighting off and on for two years is one bulging disc and one herniated disc. Go me............*throws computer*

I just find it funny how some people act as though this is a first for a president. I agree that he hasnt done very well, but its not the first time for a president. Honestly it doesnt seem to matter who the president is anymore, or who is in Congress, its the fact our political system is so f'd up its making Communism look good.

He ran almost soley on doing everything in the first 100 day. He has less than 10 days left and he's barely done anything. He's either was either extremely ignorant or a liar to say he could get things done that quickly. Most of us knew that. You want to blame someone for this mess? Blame the voter who keeps electing do nothing representatives who only have corporate interest in mind. The problem is uneducated voters who put these people in power, not the system.

Another "Trump is the same" argument. Heh. Why so committed to defending the indefensible?

Tough crowd... I thought he did alright for his first time in the booth as a 20 something year old who isn't around the team a lot. Better than Crouch, and about as good as Damond in the booth.

It still says stink.

I live with my failures.

Thanks Geezy. There's just so much out there that it's hard to know what even works before you buy it. All the textures are crazy...

Some of those textured ones look like torture devices!

On the painting topic, I recommend getting an 18 inch wide roller with a 1.5 inch wool nap. It will make painting about as easy as you can make it without using a sprayer! Sprayers are also great, but a big investment usually.

On the massaging topic, I love foam rolling! When I don't do it for a while my legs and hips get so tight. I usually look up videos online for pointers.

I injected plain old beef broth the night before. I've only used the beef rub recipe on their so far (and his memphis rub for ribs, which was great!). This time I added paprika to the beef rub though. We'll see how it goes.

When I do a whole packer, the flat is ready probably an hour or so before the point. The flat is always tougher but wet aging in fridge for even a couple days helps.

You guys ever use JB Fatboy rubs? The pecan rub on beef ribs is epic .the regular is a must for my ribs and brisket.

Lessons?  Are you at all athletic?  Like...can you ice skate?  Can you walk and chew gum?  Can you dunk?  Okay...nevermind...take the lessons.  Everyone told me it was just like ice skating...I have played hockey since I was 13...guess what...it is nothing like ice skating.  Watch the movie Frozen (not the kids one, the other one)  good luck!

Yep, take a lesson your first day. Unless you have experience with skateboarding, surfing, wake boarding, etc, you will probably pick up skiing much faster.  Keep your ski length short.  Shorter skis are easier for newbies to pivot/turn.  Don't go down black slopes.  Probably avoid blues.  Snow pants are a must.  Bring a flask of whiskey and share it on the chair lift.  Wear comfy ankle or knee length socks.  Helmet is probably not needed (you should't be getting anywhere near a tree on your first few days.)  Goggles are better than glasses if the snow is falling or blowing.  Otherwise, sunglasses are better.  If it's reaaaally cold, wear a neck gaiter.  Drink Rumplemintz and hot chocolate at the end of the day, followed by venison & buffalo chili.  

Meh, you could probly skip lessons.  Lessons spend a couple hours teaching you to snowplow, when you could figure that out yourself in about ten minutes.  Just stick to the easiest bunny slopes and practice going from snowplowing to skiing with your skis parallel.  And learn how to fall down without breaking anything.  Maybe just watch a few youtube lessons ahead of time.  /jmho

oh Chistmas Eve is typically what you call the appetizer for Chirstmas! I knew it was a trick question! 

FINALLY, A TOPIC I KNOW: Little Wienies, Buffalo Chicken dip, Hawaiian bread/Spinach dip, bacon wrapped water chestnuts. 

Bacon wrapped water chestnuts???

Gas stations seem to be the worst places for it.. I've had it happen twice, and both times it was after I filled my car up. Someone in California had taken out $300 in cash and then $300 again at a different ATM.
 

My stolen cards are always used at Walmart or Target. Usually in Tennessee.

GF's card was just hacked today too! DEFCON 5 everyone!!!

No. Baseball is boring, and even James Earl Jones can't fix that.

Guys Sandlot isn't about baseball it's about youth. Sheesh...

The Room movie, that Franco did is awesome. 

Sandlot is pretty solid.  I liked it when I was a kid.

Good man. I always believed in you.

Congrats. What was sacrifice for?

The sacrifice was time (going back to school), money, effort, a good relationship and a life I could have been comfortable with but lost. But it was to prove to myself I could be something better and not settle for less.

Too many words and letters on there. Let's stick with something simple and easy to understand, guys. These are Michiganders we're talking about.

Move

@teachercd I'm ponying up the cash for Trex decking because I don't want to have to do maintenance on this thing again. And since the railing needs to be replaced, I figure I might as well do it right and not have to redo any of it.

Be careful with that composite decking. that stuff can get pretty hot in the sun. Had a toddler burn their feet in our condo association and it wasn't over 80 degrees, and it was cloudy outside.

@ZRod I had heard that too. I ordered some samples to find the color we liked, so I took the sample pieces out onto the deck and left them in the sun for several hours. Then I measured the temps, and surprisingly the dark-colored composite material was about 10 deg cooler than the old wood deck and the light composite was a few deg cooler than the darker material.

Secret is to take the outer collar off a small chunk at a time. Try to score about a 1” wide chunk, pop it off with a screwdriver and then do another small chunk. If you try to take too much at once you may break the pipe (then u b screwed).

@Cdog923 and I have the same solution

I ended up just buying a flange to fit inside the 3 inch pipe. I don't think I can take a s#!t big enough to clog it anyway. It's got a rubber gasket so I can always go back and replace it the "right way" if it doesn't work out.

Just buy a bunch of cheap earbuds.

These lasted me for over a year so far, have 2 sets. $8 on Amazon.com "Panasonic RPHJE120K"

Much obliged fellas. I used to just buy jbuds at 6 bucks a pop but it gets annoying replacing them every few months.

Search your heart, kimosabe.

True story. I also thought it stood for San Diego for a long time.

Of course he is. That apostrophe of his is actually a kidney he stole from a midget organ donation bank. He's a real piece of work.

The Nebraska Song is a tribute to Brook Berringer, not in any way a mocking piece.

Edit: nvmd, I see knapps link now

Redux, You have to remember Knapp is old. Anything that gets your feet to jiggle, is a catchy tune! Heck, I still like hearing old Polka music now and then. \_(0" ~ 0")_/

"It all started with these idiots in Knoxville...."

And the chugging vids?

Hey in like 14 years my 3 boys are all gonna be impressed their dad could once slam a beer that fast.

It was Frankenmuth lol. Ate way to frickin much. We dodge most of the rain bands and actually caught the end of a rainbow! Was a damn good day!

The whole Devin Bush thing, pretty douche move, but that Baker Mayfield kid should apologize....

 Franakenmuth, been there many times, ate to much is standard for me there also. then picking up some sweets for  home, especially those custard mini fruit pies. But yea, thats a bit of a drive into the state and actually heading there you passed my place by like 5 minutes if you took the freeway up(live right of it). Anyway awesome that you had a great time and didn't get soaked by this unpredictable weather.

@Mavric would be like, "I'll get there next month."

I miss our lovely Walksalone 

I miss the Bouncing boobs avatar. Can't remember who had it, but of course the site couldn't allow that anymore. 

The near instant hot water is great, being able to let both kids take a bath separately and then take a shower with hot water still available is why I went tankless with CNG.  The wife has her big tub and can actually have hot water the whole time and the warranty was double our old stand up water heater.  I have heard some pipes don't work with them but we built our house in 2015 with the right piping for it.  I recommend it if you have a large family.

@ZRod Your existing furnace flue pipe may be large enough to handle the additional BTU’s of a gas water heater. Roughly, 4” or smaller won’t be big enough, 5” might be big enough and 6”+ likely is large enough. A HVAC guy should be able to tell you how large of a diameter flue is needed. Then you would know if gas is even an option. The little bit of vent piping from a WH to furnace usually amounts to nothing but, if the main stack isn’t big enough, I’d forget it 

If you can add more electrical service/panel room reasonably, I’d still try for an electric tankless over an electric tank. Just my preference, I don’t like electric tank heaters.

I installed a natural gas tankless in my last home and loved it, but I went with a gas tank water heater in my new house. There are pros and cons to both setups but I found that I wasted too much water waiting for the tankless to start heating and for my lines to clear the cold water. I have a tank system with a hot water loop now so I have almost instant hot water anywhere in my home.
