re: Any dart fans among us?

How hard is darts? I’m asking as an amateur with little knowledge. Obviously it takes a lot of precision.

If you have above average hand-eye coordination, quit your job and practiced 8hrs a day. Would you get good enough to be a pro?

I’m 80% sure the answer is yes for bowling, 100% sure the answer is yes for cornhole.

I’m not sure about darts.

I have no idea what you’re talking about, but the shoe throw definitely counted. In fact, there’s video proof for those of you who don’t read good

was always the only white kid on my team in little league basketball, and it wasn't always fun. "White boy this" and "white boy that." Sort of took the joy out of basketball after a while. To some extent that might be part of the reasons why there are so few white guys in the NBA from the south.

Yea bro you’re right. If it wasn’t for the bullying you received you would totally be in the NBA

re: Is having kids worth it?

Last weekend I got to have an epic nerf gun war at my house with 30 7yr old boys.

If that doesn’t convince you to have kids nothing will

I once saw some big fat people at a Mexican restaurant giving a 1 year old queso dip

I guess I’m a trashy POS because my kids fricking love queso and have since they were babies. I’ve for pics of both of them as 1yr olds just covered in queso holding chips :lol:
This is horrible and I feel terrible for those people. I try to remember in situations like this that the vast majority of people who live anywhere just want to live their lives, raise their families, and go about their business. When so many innocent people who are just trying to live their lives are killed, it’s an awful awful thing.

Believe it or not, if was even more off the rails when T-Bob was on there.

This is not true. T-Bob rambled but he at least started off talking about current sports topics

What is there to talk about?
today you’re asking that? They have nothing to talk about TODAY?!?!?
quote:

I think they just start broadcasting too early. These tangents are always at the beginning while they are settling in. It’s like the cameras start rolling as soon as they walk into the building.

Yea but it’s a morning radio show not a podcast. You’re getting a new audience every 20 minutes you’ve got to recap constantly. I drive to work from 7:20-7:45 and o don’t want to listen to Hibachi discussion and commercials the whole time.
quote:

They get a miles long leash with me.

2008 was unreal.

They can do whatever they want.

I agree I love them, but bring in a 3rd guy who can actually keep the on track.

6 minutes back from the break and they’ve been talking about Hibachi restaurants in Green Bay and starting a traveling Hibachi restaurant. Haven’t brought up any current events yet.

If only there was a major LSU football story they could discuss instead!
I love Flynn and Hester but they need someone who actually talks substance and keeps them from rambling about the good ole days and whatever crosses their mind for 80% of each segment. Add a third person who brings up the actual topics of the day so they’ll talk about it.

As I’m typing this they’re about to spend 3 minutes talking about Hester’s son’s birthday plans.
Posting this again as I have done if a million of these threads over the years.

The final season had a lot of issues and this suggestion does not switch them all, HOWEVER

If you flip the events and have them attack Kings Landing/ deal with Cersei / Dany goes crazy first.

Then you end the series with them defeating the night king.

The final season ends up a whole lot better, still plenty of issues, but much much better.
I’m confused a little I guess.

Are we surprised that Brian Kelly’s son is pro Brian Kelly?

Major college scouts are at every game. Kids that sometimes aren’t on the radar get noticed. I had a family member get a baseball scholarship because he shined some genes when scouts were showing up to see his SS teammate.

No doubt it works out for a lot of them but I think my point still stands.

don't understand the appeal. For me the entire appeal of playing high school football was playing with the friends I grew up with and for the community I grew up in. What fun is a bunch of mercenaries who don't know each other going to Florida to assemble some super team and play for a community that doesn't even care.


They don’t even play in an actual state sanctioned league it’s literally just year round select sports. It makes sense for the Cooper Flagg and Liam McNeely types who are destined to be high level D1 and/or pro athletes. I just think about the fact that for every 1 of those guys there are probably 20 other guys going there who end up flaming out and ruin their high school experience and early years of adulthood.

Paige looks good in this one but does anyone else think this is hurting her brand some? If not her brand (which may just be tits and golf at this point anyway), at least it hurts her clout as being a good golfer? She seems to have been toted through the first three rounds so far and they didn’t play many of her shots and she hasn’t made many, if not more than a couple, putts of any length.

It definitely hurt her brand but not because of the golf. She’s a very good golfer and has never claimed to be anything but that. She’s self admitted to not being good enough to keep status on the Epson Tour, she’s still a + handicap, how many truly horrible shots did you see her hit?

The first half of last season was really, really good. Then it drifted in to silliness. Especially with the wife & daughter. There are some really good storylines but their cringey scenes eat up way too much screen time. The premiere continued that crap.

Do you think there is an alternate message board somewhere full of women that are complaining that this show has too much oil field/BBT serious stuff and needs to be more focussed on the women and their adventures?

I bet there is :lol:
I’m one episode in and my biggest issue is I already know all this stuff. When you already know what’s happening the long explanations and quotes from books makes it seem a little slow and overplayed.

I feel like I know a lot more about the causes and effects of the revolutions rather than the revolution itself (outside of the 8-9 famous battles and events). So hopefully once it gets into the actual revolution it’ll hold my attention better.

No issue with call outs to whatever groups of people, he’s not telling any lies
