re: You just CAN'T swing 2-0 right there - FlyingTiger06
[quote]I don't give a shite if Albert Pujols is up to bat. You move that runner over. [/quote] Disagree about the Pujols part, but I also think he should have stayed with the bunt. DP is the worst possible outcome in that situation. Hell, a strikeout hurts much less than that. ...

re: In light of redneck's wedding, What Was Your Wedding Song? - FlyingTiger06
Keeper of the Stars by Tracy Byrd. Wanted Me and You by Kenny Chesney since that's what I had engraved on the wedding band, but a week before her own wedding my wife's former friend (huge bitch) heard of my plan to do that and said "that's a great song." I think she's just paying a compliment si...

re: Air Force bans personnel from reading news stories reporting NSA scandal - FlyingTiger06
Dude, I'm not trying to cover up for anyone. I don't like this administration at all and there's plenty about this that is wrong. My point is that the NOTAM sent out by the AF isn't part of a cover up or trying to deny anyone any freedoms. It is simply to maintain the integrity of our unclassifi...

This isn't a freedom issue. It is preventing classified information from getting on the unclassified Air Force networks. I could access it here at home and the AF couldn't do shite about it....

Walking through DFW airport...down escalator was out of service so to get downstairs you had to take stairs. Up escalator was working fine.

[quote]Worst LSU Game You Ever Attended[/quote] Notre Dame, '97. Temps in the 20s by halftime and we got absolutely murdered 24-6. Our 6 points was via a garbage time TD with 6:35 to go in the game. Only redeeming grace was that we eventually went on to beat ND's arse in the Indy Bowl later tha...

The YouTube video skips the "LSU-LSU" chants that erupted (starting in the student section) after the 93 yd screen pass TD that UGA scored to tie the game with about 4 minutes to go. One of my favorite moments as a fan was sitting in the student section as this began and then took off through the w...
