  1. I think this is SUPER COOL. Trumpeteers, dust off your trumpets and let's hear what you got!!! https://www.cbsnews.com/news/how-to-participate-in-steve-hartmans-taps-across-america/ Memorial Day celebrations across the U.S. will look a bit different this year, with most picnics, parades, and services canceled due to the coronavirus outbreak. That's why CBS News "On the Road" correspondent Steve Hartman is teaming up with retired Air Force bugler Jari Villanueva to keep the spirit of the holiday alive. Hartman and Villanueva are asking veterans, musicians, teachers, and students of all abilities and ages to sound Taps on their front lawns, porches, and driveways at 3 p.m. local time this Monday, May 25th.
  2. Those sticky suet cakes are a pain in the ass to handle. Thanks for posting, T&C.
  3. Perhaps Nate is deaf, too.
  4. tow1 /tō/ verb (of a motor vehicle or boat) pull (another vehicle or boat) along with a rope, chain, or tow bar.
  5. Have you ever seen a tow truck tow a vehicle from behind?
  6. Baltimore was obviously the better team. I just think this was a winnable game, even though the Ravens were pretty much in control for the whole game. We contained the best QB in 2019 ... but we gave up big plays. Our offense sucked. Gore shouldn't even have had pads on. And it STILL ended up a close game. That's why I say we should have won. If the Bills had better play-calling, I do think they could have won the game. But yes ... the better team won. EDIT: I also disagree that Singletary "was doing absolutely nothing most of the game." Just a quick glance at the play by play and I see runs of 9, 14, 8, 5 and 6 in the first half, alone. Then I see that got a whopping seven carries in the 2nd half - one of which was a 38-yard run to give the Bills 1st and goal.
  7. Is that being tugged or towed? @Cripple Creek @BringBackFergy
  8. Because it happened in the deep south.
  9. I think Daboll's play-calling killed any chance at winning the game. Passing 39 times with a pretty ineffective Allen, whilst only running the ball 23 times in a game where Singletary was (as usual) averaging over 5 YPC, was stupid. Baltimore was clearly the better coached team. Just like they were all season.
  10. The Ravens game is not only a game that we could have won; it's a game that we should have won. I need to stop clicking links about these kinds of games. Dammit, John!!
  11. Hi, Nate! Welcome to the board! When you swim now, do you go in circles? Do people call you NASCAR?
  12. I'm not impressed with Tre White's team mates doing nothing.
  13. Well the night's begun and you want some fun Do you think you're gonna find it (think you're gonna find it) You got to treat yourself like number one Do you need to be reminded (need to be reminded) It doesn't matter what you do or say Just forget the things that you've been told We can't do it any other way Everybody's got to rock n roll Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
  14. Clicking that link was disappointing in so many ways.
  15. I'm all for Dak getting paid and I think it makes sense for him to seek a 4 year deal. I'm just pointing out that it's a bit of a slap in the face to tens of millions of unemployed US citizens right now to see a billionaire and a millionaire fighting over a $175 million football contract.
  16. At the same time 38.6 million Americans are collecting unemployment. Great optic, eh?
  17. Can you share the details of this study? That number seems very high.
  18. Leave the goddamn game alone.
  19. Glab has a voice made for muted television.
  20. Who do you have for live entertainment (music)? Will they need to sing through N95s?
  21. I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, so if it's not, please delete. I think it's relevant because it shows how much misinformation is out there and we all know how dangerous that can be. I hesitated posting this because it has the potential to go to the dark side. I'm hoping that doesn't happen. Researchers: Nearly Half Of Accounts Tweeting About Coronavirus Are Likely Bots https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/05/20/859814085/researchers-nearly-half-of-accounts-tweeting-about-coronavirus-are-likely-bots Researchers culled through more than 200 million tweets discussing the virus since January and found that about 45% were sent by accounts that behave more like computerized robots than humans. It is too early to say conclusively which individuals or groups are behind the bot accounts, but researchers said the tweets appeared aimed at sowing division in America. "We do know that it looks like it's a propaganda machine, and it definitely matches the Russian and Chinese playbooks, but it would take a tremendous amount of resources to substantiate that," said Kathleen Carley, a professor of computer science at Carnegie Mellon University who is conducting a study into bot-generated coronavirus activity on Twitter that has yet to be published. Researchers identified more than 100 false narratives about COVID-19 that are proliferating on Twitter by accounts controlled by bots. Among the misinformation disseminated by bot accounts: tweeted conspiracy theories about hospitals being filled with mannequins or tweets that connected the spread of the coronavirus to 5G wireless towers, a notion that is patently untrue.
