      Why do you hate the US Olympic team Moiraine? Pulling for the Brits like that.....

      Actually it was a Scott Frost tweet that I noticed. Then I saw that anyone posting #gbr had it. I haven't tweeted in like 5 years.

  2. Why aren't 40 times done in pads?

      I think that is a good point.  I do think that at that level the pads really don't bother any of them anymore (I coach HS ball and you should see some kids the first time they put pads on, it is basically a documentary on stupidity) but I still think you have a good point.

      Pads are just a noise that can't be controlled. It's not worth measuring.  The point of the testing is to measure raw ability not account for noise or other variables. It's an excellent baseline. The best really. 

       

      Why don't we make them run up and down the feild, get hit a couple times, and then take the Wondelic?

      Would be iffy to compare times wearing old-school pads vs modern ones.

  3. Why don't tank tops have tanks on them?

      As long as there are some "nice guns" coming out of the tank top, you don't actually need any tanks on it.

    I just wanted to inform everyone.

      I admittedly just found the word "inventory" funny in this context.

      My annual derm visit calls it "making a mole map" of my body.  Equally weird to inventory I think.  And snaps to the above - super important.

      I am too, that's why I asked. But I still don't wanna print it. Hmph.

      I probably won't get sloshed. I'm doing the traditional eat a bunch of Chinese with your Chinese co-worker and then explain to her what football is pre-game thing.

      Now it is.

       

      I'm super excited actually. She has never watched ANY football. I can mold her view of it. E.g. "This is the best football player in history. His name is Tommie Frazier. This guy is Tom Osborne and he is the best coach. He won 25 national championships in a row."

  6. How much should tree trimming cost?

      You guys are scaring me.:ohnoes  I need to remove 2 or 3 trees this fall. Only a couple years ago I had a tree removed, stump ground and 8 others trimmed/pruned and it was like $950 total.

       

      Anybody paying $1200-$2000 per month for lawn and trees is outside their mind unless they have multiple well manicured acres.

    3. Enhance

      @JJ Husker yeah that seems outlandish but the first thought that popped into my head was same as yours that they must have a larger than usual property with a lot of trees or something. I have a 1/2 acre and lawn service is $40/week right now.

       

      Lawn/tree care can be quite lucrative if you find the people willing to pay. good news about our pine tree is it’s in the front yard. I’ve heard backyard trees are where they really get ya because of the challenge of getting and using the equipment back there. 

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Haha, great. 2 of the 3 I want to remove are backyard and the other one may be worse because it’s between 2 other trees and between 2 houses. Guess I better start getting quotes now.

  7. I just found out Galaxy Quest was supposed to have a sequel and the only reason it didn't happen was because Alan Rickman died. :(

      :( ... That is a understandable reason.  I love that movie !

  8. I like boobs.

    I'm generally a pretty coordinated person. I don't fall down. Except maybe if I'm walking up a steep hill on a sheet of ice. I always catch myself if I trip. I was the star player of my soccer team in college for the 1 season I played, scoring 50% of our goals. I think it's small detail that we didn't win any of our games and we only scored 2 goals all season, but I guess that's a matter of opinion.

    Anyhow, the other day at work it was super rainy, and I made the smart decision in the morning to wear sandals to work. I was headed out the door and looked back to half hold the door open for someone then turned around right at the top of 3 cement stairs down to the cement parking lot. My foot literally just went right out from under me like I had stepped on a cloud and I fell from the top of the stairs and landed sprawled spread eagle on my stomach.

    The only reason I didn't smash my face on the pavement and lose teeth is because of boobs. So, thank you boobs.

      It is an art...write as much as you can.  I wish I was creative.  

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      To be honest, I didn't really know what fan fiction was or what your name pertained to so I used the Google machine. It's pretty cool if you're creative like that. I am not creative at all when it comes to writing or songs. And I just learned that mistress Alys is a babe. I'll never picture you any other way again Moiraine. Although for quite awhile I have pictured you as Mila Kunis so not much of a change really.

      Well, I'm fine with that. She's pretty hot.

  11. What is the difference between a $700 Christmas tree and a $100 Christmas tree?

    No this isn't a joke I really want to know.

      The plastic E-Z anchors are the way to go in sheet rock when you can't hit a stud. They are super easy and I've never had one fail yet.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Yeah, using a screw directly into sheet rock is a very bad idea that will not last.

      Because it's boring 90% of the time and then when it's not boring it's way too nerveracking.

      Maybe the mods would allow us to run a contest and toss one person. We could nominate 16 or 32 potentials and then through bracket voting get it down to one poster that actually gets the ban hammer. I like it.

      C'mon mods, a little vigilante justice for the board. Sort of an offering of sacrifice to the football gods for relieving us of BP. However ya want to look at it. We want a pound of flesh.
