I like having a kick-off specialist. If Carpenter gets hurt, do you want the result of the game on the leg of Marcel Dareus?

My buddy moved to the Dallas/Ft Worth area in September. He is home visiting now, and he told me that beer, wine, and liquor are really expensive where they live, comparatively. What's up with Texas, CGF?

I googled "rim rider technique" and now there are 2 FBI agents knocking on my door. Thanks.

Haha...I'm sorry man I was just bustin balls. I actually watched it and it was pretty amazing. For those weight lifters out there...has anyone's sphincter/colon ever come flying out during this lift? Serious question.

Maybe the question should be why are you getting a chubby over this giant man in a speedo lifting weights?

It looks like it's going to be tough to keep Nylander off the Buffalo squad. Similar to Eichel, the game just seems to slow down for him.

If someone could invent a toilet seat that doesn't squish your balls when you sit down, that would be tremendous.

Kinda going out on a limb here, but WTF. FWIW, I'm hearing that a verbal commit from grad transfer Andrew White is coming soon.

I appreciate it, my man. I always get a weird response when I call the hotel and ask if their toilets are long-ball friendly.

Just finished watching Bloodline season 2. Very good show, and the second season was better than the first, IMO. Lots of cliffhangers at the end of S2 so I expect that there will be a third season.

Looks like it's between York and Ogunquit. I'll have to see what I can find in terms of lodging. Definitely need to find something with a bedroom and a living room, so we can hang out after the kids go to bed.

Oh yeah, I heard Old Orchard Beach has a small zoo/amusement park. I'll have to look into that one. Thanks.

Definitely looking for sandy beaches. Anyone ever been to Ogunquit? I cup from the front now and set them down safely in the bowl. Problem solved. Oh, we definitely need a hotel with a bedroom/living room deal.

Oops...sorry mods. Please move to OTW.

I'm thinking about taking the family to Maine for a short get-away at the end of July. The wife and I have two young children (6 & 2), so family friendly activities are important. A colleague of mine recommended Ogunquit as a good option. Any recommendations for nice little beach towns to visit? Also, good hotels/resorts geared toward families? Thanks in advance you filthy animals!!

Don't worry. By that time in the season the fish will be 1-5 and you'll be able to get those same tickets for $10. Pretty close to the worst fans in the NFL, IMO.

Tough developing true rivalries when division teams have been beating the tar out of us for over a decade.

It's amazing, the hype surrounding Heady Topper. I bought a 4 pack last summer, it was pretty good, but I'll probably never buy it again. I love beer...especially a good IPA, but I don't get the hype. For Vermont beers I would take Fiddlehead IPA any day of the week over the mystical HT.

Marriage is like a friends with benefits thing without the benefits. You'll love it.

I would do anything for love...but I won't do that!

Although not confirmed, I heard the delay was due to an NCAA review of a summer class he was taking to meet eligibility requirements. I can't understand why that would prevent him from committing, but that's all I got. HUGE get....

Wow. Taurean Thompson commits to Syracuse. Finally... I don't have a link...should be coming out shortly...

McKenzie's aren't bad for super market dog. I have only seen them here in Vermont though.

Also brings some much needed depth in the backcourt. We can't have any of our guards playing the most total minutes in the NCAA like G did last year. White would give us good versatility too. Let's hope his visit goes well. He's getting interest from a few other major programs out there including Louisville.

Kansas/Nebraska grad-transfer Andrew White currently visiting Syracuse. Could play SF/SG at 6'7". Averaged over 16 points/game last season, and shot 41% from behind the arc. Would be an amazing get for Syracuse.
