re: Happy Elvis' Birthday

There are several YouTube compilation videos of celebrities, band members, etc. that knew Elvis and share stories and memories of him. They all loved/liked him.

Right. And the poster saying Jones would disarm them......With most of these Jones would be the one disarmed.... by their sword, lol.

Audie Murphy was a great pick. Talk about an instinctive warrior. He killed something like six German snipers, among his many other feats.

It is one of my favorites. However, the first time I read it I didn't fully appreciate it. I came back around to it two or three years later and absolutely loved it . What an incredible writer he is.

Now I reread it every few years. Anyone speed reading this book is not going to enjoy it as much as someone who savors the really intense parts.
Regarding Lonesome Dove, it is one of the best fiction books ever, period, not just western books.

I loved how long the book was and it remained a fantastic read the whole way. Talk about well fleshed out characters and a great story.
I am still trying to figure out how anyone thinks rotating your own tires sounds like a great idea.

Come on now. Let's not get out over our skis. The United States isn't invincible. We don't need to create more enemies.

Irvin is an all time great. Tremendous passion for the game. A roster with 22 players with drive like Irvin would never lose.
Throw my opinion out then check what the boxing experts say. They all have Sugar Ray Robinson, Hagler and Monzon at the top of greatest all time middleweights.

I think Roy Jones Jr. Is generally considered a super middleweight or even lighmiddleweight. Great fighter, I don't dispute that.

I don't know man. He brings passion to the game. He was the engine that drove those 90's Cowboys teams.

Aikman said Irvin would party all night and then practice harder than any player on the team. He is a winner at football. These current Miami players get that.
Irvin could teach them how to push off, lol.
T1 and T2 were great......however, best summer blockbuster ever is Jaws.

That mid grade Asian looking Chick could stay the night at my house. I would take her to the Waffle House in the morning, lol.
The year after his interception season he got hurt in the second game. In the first game he played great. The knee injury killed him.
Mo Jeaux nailed it. Good job.
You really believe this? I don't. Competition level is everything. Both in their primes Hagler and Jones would be an even match to me.
Slow down amigo....Sugar Ray Robinson is quite possibly the greatest boxer ever. He could box and punch equally well. At welterweight he was probably the greatest all time and at middleweight he was fantastic also.

Prime Hagler was a beast middleweight also.

Leonard was a natural welterweight, Duran was an all time lightweight and great welterweight, he was not a middleweight even though he gave Hagler all he wanted. Duran was just a special fighter.

I do agree with you that Roy Jones Jr. was a great fighter. He would be a serious threat to anyone.
This is truly unbelievable to me. Out of all of the things to "waste" money on, how is a watch anywhere near the top of the list? And yet I see comments like the OP's in every watch thread.

Are these the same guys who "waste" $20 every day at the convenience store on Monster drinks, skoal and cigarettes? Or "waste" money on a new iPhone every year, or a new truck every couple of years?

Why watches often get singled out as being a waste of money is a conundrum to me. For the people who like watches it is not wasting money at all, in fact, it is money well spent. It brings daily enjoyment to the wearer and sometimes the watch appreciates in value.

D. J. Chester in the portal is a good thing.
The Mom next to Darth Vader looks like Natalie Portman.
