  1. Kinda like this: LoL... Don't think you can get much closer...
  2. Box elder bugs? When the female box elders hoard up and head from the trees to warmth of houses for winter. Put laundry soap in hose sprayer. Wash the siding, brick... It gives them wicked "dermatitis" if not drowns them. Also: For perimeter defense, diatomaceous earth is safe, effective. They pass through and cuts their exoskeleton to ribbons.
  3. You need to be sent to WAF re-education camp. Fall program is getting ready to fire up here in Illiana! Matriculate now, don't wait for that "polite" knock on the door! I gave the cleaning lady at the hotel in Nashville a bigger tip... And I still left the room not like a slobola. That $20 was burning a hole in my pocket anyway!
  4. [I know you said UB... But Northern teams are different] University of Chicago was a founding member of the Big Ten. Left at the pinnacle of it's football dominance in 1939. Did you know that the University of Chicago was like the Alabama today of it's day back in the 1930's and yanked it's sports program, football in 1939 to concentrate on academics? How novel! You'd think an Alabama would do that today. Big southern school? Let's go a little north above the Mason Dixon line to PED, ooops, I mean PENN State... Think they'd even pull the $$$$$ plug with that ***** -ed you zombie sports culture after abusing kids? Yeah, right... Here's a good read about college football in the South: https://theathletic.com/934984/2019/04/22/college-football-1930s-southeastern-conference-origins/ You may need the app... Not about being a factor... It about regional lines.
  5. My son is graduating this year from Iowa. They wear black and yellow colors out of homage to Steelers but man red, white, and blue would be more appropriate... Between Rose Bowls, Super Bowls, tailgating, bad luck, Ronnie Harmon, the style of play... You'd think they were separated at birth from the Bills! When I first moved to Davenport... My supervisor in Rock Island saw my New York plates the first day of work, the Bills sticker and said: "Yeah, don't feel bad, he (alluding to Ronnie Harmon) blew the Rose Bowl for us too!" /smh... Then I send my kid there 25 years later.
  6. Marv had a quote: "If a coach starts listening to the fans, he's going to wind up sitting next to them." Dude/Dudette... I am not sitting with you! LoL...
  7. Speaking of getting fired, no pun intended... What would you do to save the company's $150,000 rig? https://abc7.com/amp/video-shows-trash-truck-that-ignited-deadly-calimesa-fire/5612626/ You know, not dumping it and the rig goes up... Still starts a wild fire. Follow protocol... Shouldn't there be fire suppression on the vehicle? Should this belong in the "did you ever utilize a fire extinguisher" thread?
  8. Paul absolutely looks like he's gonna toss his cookies... LoL... Look at his shirt, he might have.
  9. Took him behind the training facilities and put him down "Saratoga racehorse style." A wrecked horse is good for nothing, not repairable. Anyway, RIP. I send my condolences. ?
  10. That's so Kirk Ferentz in Iowa. If there is any college so "Billsy" it's the Hawkeyes. Snake biten is an understatement!
  11. The Titans kicker did leave 12 points on the table because he kicked like: NOT to be negative... Just saying. Thanx Elmo!!!! I will take it anyway we can!
  12. As a Civilian deployed. You'd make it over there +60. EZ-PZ... Especially on base. That's where I was going with it... And 2-3 times pay... Other bennys... Like coming back with unlimited vacation leave (you can only carry 240 hours a year normally or lose anything over 240 at end of year if not used). They are screaming for bodies!
  13. We are civilians. They come back fatter than when they left. LoL...
  14. (I) Didn't read through 3 pages. But I am disappointed with all you guys if nobody mentioned what a perfect fit Rex would be for Skins job. A match made in heaven, like they were never cut off at birth and discarded. Like a hand to a glove.
  15. Depends... Where people put their priorities I am 51 and got almost 30 years in with one employer. If I don't go early... In many ways, I guess... I will probably have over 40. 20 short years will get me close to 50 years @ this Club Fed. We are even playing with a short bench. One of our +60 year operators chose to get deployed again to Afghanistan... With Trans-Atlantic Division for another 12 to 18 months.
  16. LoL... Of course there is. But not by the fans. Just like the Marv Levy quote: "If a coach starts listening to the fans, he's going to wind up sitting next to them."
  17. Its my time too. It's a general fund... Your time goes elsewhere. Not here. ? Sheesh... Some people who think that their $0.000000000000002 actually buys them control.
  18. I don't follow trends. Northern snakeheads in other states is about 5-6 years old. Honest... Old news. Now Georgia wants them dead. How novel. I guess it "trends." Yawn...
  19. Is the stadium paid off yet? All Krafty's $$$$$. For the last 17 years if they don't get butts in there... Happy Ending Bobby goes belly up. Belly up may be great for a handy... But not for keeping a mortgage on a stadium current.
  20. Gore busted two runs against them... But was caught.
  21. Fixed! LoL... I wanted nothing to do with paste/glue. Danke!
  22. LoL... Can we get an active hyperlink from a Mod please! I don't do cut-n-paste! ?
