Last one I took into Bozeman was perfectly fine.
Remember that idiot a few years ago that found a great airfare from New York to Sydney, Australia via Bozeman, Montana? Turns out he accidentally booked a flight to Sidney, Montana and when he got on the prop plane he asked the pilot how that little plane could fly all the way to Australia?

It takes investment.
The Olympics have been a good test lab for this theory.
The host country always has a big medal and performance boost. Some of that is adrenaline from competing in front of a home crowd but most of it is due to the fact that these countries start investing heavily as soon as they are awarded the bid 10 years prior.

I've made the same post for like 20 years and soccer fanbois go bonkers. You don't understand the "beautiful game" blah, blah, blah.
We got knocked out of qualifying by Trinidad & Tobago one year. That's not a country, it's a duty free shop.
We might as well throw some NBA rejects out there, develop some alyoop kickers and just go full on prison ball.

Brett Favre went to USM to play safety
Favre ran the wishbone in high school and very rarely threw the ball. His dad was his HS coach and knew his son had major arm talent, but still ran the wishbone because they had a good FB and good option RB but a poor defense (apart from Favre). He basically chose team success over promoting his son, which I suppose is somewhat admirable.
Fortunately, a local S. Miss assistant saw him throwing in practice and said, "holy crap".

I'm guessing NOBODY will show up for work in England tomorrow/this morning.

My dad got bladder cancer recently. The treatment was to stick a catheter up his dick and spray the inside of his bladder with a tuberculosis culture. It actually works really well thankfully.
But my response was, who in the hell ever thought to try this in the first place? And who was the first person to volunteer as a guinea pig for that?

Busch Beer used to have a marketing slogan that went, "Head for the mountains...and head for the Busch!"
When I was in 5th grade a kid got sent home from school because he wore a T-shirt that said "Screw the mountains, I'm heading straight for the Bush!" and it had an arrow pointing downwards.
:lol:

Sometimes an iconic play can obscure the fact that everything before that was awesome too. We remember a single moment but forget everything else that led up to it.
Examples: Flutie Hail Mary, Kick 6, Boise St Statue of Liberty, Stanford Band is on the field, Bush Push, etc...
Those were all amazing games that still would have been great without the famous ending.

My roommate in college got straight up, roundhouse kicked in the beer gut (Patrick Swayze Roadhouse style) and he fell backwards over a potted plant and knocked himself out.
Even though my roommate was my buddy and the other guy was a guido, I seriously wanted to buy the other guy a beer and tell him that was the coolest shite I had ever seen in my life.

It’s not “who has an epic moment”. It’s “who would we not even know if not for their big moment”.
A fair point but you could also make a thread about solid players who are probably overrated (or over-remembered) because of one epic moment.
Norm Van Brocklyn
Bobby Thompson
Bill Mazeroski
On the flip side you have players who were good but are remembered mostly for something ignominious.

Most larger moths do not have mouths or a digestive system. Their only job it to find a mate and to reproduce before dying of old age (1 week is typical).
Well, I guess we can all feel a little easier about that giant moth that was tortured at the SEC baseball tournament. His days were numbered anyway. Hope he had got laid before he was lured to the bright lights of Hoover.

Second time he was in jail, lost a lot of weight and squeezed through a ceiling vent. That is when he went to Fla. and killed those gals at FSU and a 12 yr. old girl walking home from school.
When Bundy busted out the second time, he bought a plane ticket and flew to Michigan hoping to trick authorities into thinking he fled to Canada when he intended to head south. He went to a bar in Ann Arbor and watched the Rose Bowl which was Michigan v. Washington. Bundy was from Seattle and a big Washington fan. Washington upset Michigan and Bundy was the only person in a bar full of Michigan fans cheering for UW. This drew a lot of attention and dirty looks.
Later he stole a car and drove down to Florida. There was a poster on the Auburn board who says he was helping his girlfriend move into an apartment somewhere in Alabama that weekend. While he was inside the apartment moving something, he swears Bundy approached his girlfriend in the parking lot asking if he could help her and asking a bunch of weird questions. When he walked out Bundy changed his tune and left. They didn't know who he was until the FSU stuff broke a few weeks later. They swore up and down it was him. The timeline fit but who knows. Crazy dodge if true. A lot of serial killers probably bail if things aren't just right. A lot of potential victims probably don't know how lucky they were.

Flynn started 2 games for the Packers and set 2 records
Flynn also led LSU to a national championship and a big time BCS championship game win against Ohio St.
I know his NFL career is more known for one game, but I don't think it's fair to put him on this list because he had name recognition and success in the biggest spotlight before that.
It's kind of like a band that had one chart topping hit but also a few other songs that people recognize. You wouldn't call them a one hit wonder.

The audience got to see Jake Spoon's revulsion to the outlaws he fell in with. We saw him protest his diluted moral code several times until he was eventually held at gunpoint during the sodbuster incident.
But when Gus and Co. caught up to him they had no way of knowing he was sort of a Patty Hearst at some point in the crime spree. They didn't witness the events, just documented the aftermath. Thus the "ride with outlaws, die with outlaws" rule was enforced.

The counter-argument term I remember hearing was "tossed salad". The argument being that immigrants don't really assimilate but rather all share a new common "salad dressing" in the form of some new language and customs while maintaining strong differences as the bulk of their old unique heritage.
So long travel ball, hello spelling bees.
