 | GMXR Chapter 11 - First of many? - TigerDog83 on 4/2/13 at 12:18 pm
Saw where GMX Resources has recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. It makes me wonder if this is the first domino to fall for heavily weighted natural gas producers. I am speculating that some other companies could be in trouble if the low gas prices persist, including some big names...

| Biometric Gun Safes - TigerDog83 on 1/17/13 at 11:03 am
Anyone here recommend a biometric gun safe? Need one for a 9mm Glock for bedside table and quick access. It looks like Gunvault is the standard or at least that's what I have found looking around. Academy had the biometric ones for much less than anywhere I've looked but they are so much cheaper ...

Anyone here have an Avery Finisher blind? I've had mine for five years and had several major issues including a near total frame collapse last week. I'm wondering if anyone else has had all the broken brackets and problems or if I just drew a bad straw when I ordered mine originally. ...

I know this thread was floating around last week, but does anyone here have opinions on the different M1A packages? I can get two brand new in the box M1A national matches for $1,900 a piece today. Would this be considered a good deal on this gun? I really prefer the .308 to the .223 myself so I'...

| 3rd down on last LSU offensive series - TigerDog83 on 11/4/12 at 6:39 pm
I know that this is a tough call, but how many people would have risked passing for the first down here instead of rushing into a loaded box? I realize that you try the run to bleed clock and don't want them to have more time, but if you pick up a first down it's over. Mettenberger was in sync and...

Have to say last week staying here for work was the first time I've ever spent any time in Alexandria other than stopping for gas passing through off I-49. I am shocked at how little there is here and how run down and dejected most of this city looks. Was it the loss of the airbase that caused thi...

| Lack of Hitting Adjustments - TigerDog83 on 6/9/12 at 2:36 pm
Anybody have explanations for why our hitters never change their approach at the plate? We get pitched outside by a pitcher with more movement and craft than velocity and still try to pull the ball down the lines or swing for the fence. The result today was a pile of lazy pop ups or routine ground...

A Missouri congressman has made some inflammatory remarks about the issue also. This could be a serious issue for the...

| GM cleanup - TigerDog83 on 5/19/10 at 8:29 am
Didn't see this posted anywhere on the board yet. The administration proposes giving GM more money on top of what they still owe to clean up former facilities. I guess because GM isn't an oil company they aren't required to clean up their own mess.
