Yeah, smart move by him for the dollars 💵. I don’t blame him one bit. He wants a recruitment with NIL in place. Turning NCAA recruitment into more of a meat market. Forget the G-League idea for high level prospects, now they can make 6 figures by choosing the school that offers the best marketing/exposure. Same reason Chance Westry has wanted to play for Cuse all his life, but is going to commit to a school like LSU or Bama. Sweet 😒

Kamari Lands decommits 😢 Full court press now on Dominic Barlow and Chris Bunch 🤷🏻‍♂️

Has the name of a vet CB we would appreciate even been mentioned? I think the FA market is pretty much tapped out at this point 🤷🏻‍♂️

Gross. Dentures are an immediate deal breaker 🤮

It’s on the list. Just started watching The Walking Dead. About 4 episodes in. We’ll need a few shows to shuffle in. White Lotus looks interesting.

Based on the stuff I saw from Copeland this summer, I’m as high on him as I’ve ever been. He has a very well rounded skill set and improved immensely as a ball handler. He’s also a 6’6” kid with room to grow into his frame. A year at IMG with elite coaching, facilities and competition will also surely help his development.

Justin Taylor will be joining Quadir Copeland at IMG for their senior seasons. Love it 😊

Cargo shorts. They may not currently be in style for the 4” inseam millennials, but I know if I’m going to battle zombies or the taliban, I can keep lots of supplies in those pockets.

Loved Mare of Easttown, but the ending (IMO) was so all over the damn place. Love me some twists and turns, but the last couple episodes seemed like they were written by M Night Shyamalan on a meth bender. That said, I would be all in for a season 2.

I never pee in pools because there’s this chemical in there that turns the water red if you do. Surprised no one posting in this thread is aware of this.

Mike McCarthy has the personality of a fart.

The Serpent on Netflix gets 5.7/10 hammersticks. Worth a watch, but the story got redundant and dull after a while, IMO.

I don’t drink soda all the time. Usually it’s straight gin in my coffee cup. But when I do it’s diet Dr Pepper.

Are unvaccinated fans going to be “required” to wear masks outside in their seats? This is unclear to me.

Copeland is likely still a work in progress, but he has incredible tools and size. Love that he’s going to IMG for his senior year. I think he’s gonna be a good one. Heard the same thing about Westry. Always wanted to go to Syracuse, but his “people” think he should take one of his big SEC offers. Sounds like LSU is the lead dog. With regard to Starling, I heard he was Maryland’s to lose. Still holding out hope though because I really like his skill set. Love Bunch for his perimeter shooting, but I could see why the staff would be all in on Barlow and Peter Carey to add size/athleticism. Barlow is quickly becoming a known commodity, however, after his summer play.

I was told by my "source" that the coaching staff essentially moved on from Westry about a month ago and turned their focus toward Copeland. I did notice, however, that Westry included Syracuse in his final 10 schools which were recently announced. I can't imagine that Westry would commit to Syracuse after Copeland did. We're going to be loaded at guard, and JG3 will still be on the team for the 22-23 season. Edit: The belief is that Westry is a heavy LSU lean, FWIW.

I watched some of this summer’s highlights. He looked much better. Looks like his frame filled out and he has more room to add muscle. Also looked much more confident and assertive as a floor general. Great handle and seems to be better at creating off the dribble. I love the commit. A lot of folks feel confident that we’ll land the 7 foot C/PF from Mass, Peter Carey. He’s gone under recruited, but has had an incredible summer. I think we’re one of maybe 2 “big school” offers he has received. There will be more before he commits anywhere. Hopefully we got in early enough on him. I’m still holding out hope for one of either JJ Starling or Chris Bunch. Both wings that can also play either guard position.

You old bastard. Your senior yearbook was carved into stone tablets.

If Josh Allen had 100,000 Slim Jims, he could give every Bills fan in the lower bowl a small bite and also have enough delicious meat sticks left over to hand out to trick or treaters for the duration of his contract. My math is spot on. Used an Abacus.

I went to my 20th in 2016, and very similar to HS, I was the coolest, best looking guy there. “Made it” with the prom queen in Principal Marshall’s office, spiked the punch, and gave some wedgies and swirlies to some nerds. Just like the ol’ days.

Candy cigarettes. There were the chalky ones with the one end dyed red, and then there were the good kind made of gum. Those had the powder stuff inside the wrapper so it kinda looked like smoke was coming out. Ahhh...those were the days.

It was a joke. There was this thing on Facebook... Ah never mind 🤦🏻‍♂️

I bet you’re a blast at parties.
