I figured he would be tight with Al Bundy since IRL that guy is one of the first BJJ Black Belts from the Gracie school in Torrance.

re: Programs Where Their Main Rival Does Not Consider Them Their Main Rival

Auburn is Bama’s main rival down in LA. Move up to North Alabama and yes, it is Tennessee. I honestly think LSU probably slides into the 2 spot in LA just because of the interactions between them on the coast.

Yes, I have been to several. He actually awarded me my Purple Belt.

Let’s go back to Minute Maid while we are renaming things in H-town. It will take years before I quit calling it that.
Wish we could get the Oilers back too.

re: How was the culture of the late 90s/Early 00’s
Posted by MWP on 4/13/26 at 4:08 pm to Tigerfan1274
Looking forward to a Mike Tyson fight in the late 80’s was huge even though you knew it might last only a minute like the Spinks fight. It was just the anticipation of a man that was about to wreak some havoc in the ring. However the mid 90’s boxing scene was prime for me just because the heavyweight division exploded. Then the excitement for boxing kinda petered out by the 2000’s and was quickly replaced by the UFC.
re: Has Rory gotten himself into the Top 10 Golfers of all time?
Posted by MWP on 4/13/26 at 3:41 pm to Cliff Booth
Adding that 2nd Green Jacket puts him in the Top 10 for me with the Players wins thrown in. My take is the Masters is the most prestigious since it is like joining a fraternity for life with a win, where the others are at the end of the day just golf tournaments. Sure a US Open win is nice but the Masters is on a pedestal for most golf fans and it carries significant more weight.
Stick with Owen Wilson

Anybody watch this yet? My wife (no pics) started watching this the other night and got me into it even though she doesn't play golf. After the first few episodes I binged them all. Pretty good series. Kinda surprised nobody has mentioned this inside my golfing circle of buddies. Guess it is an under the radar series although it has Owen Wilson as the lead. Has a kind of Tin Cup feel to it.

Makes sense since the primary reason to get married is to have children so with that off the table in heaven really no reason to be married. I wonder if you have any recollection of people that you knew on Earth that didn't make it?

Vaughn would find success. He’s easily the best coach Bama has had since Wells.
Great guy and coach. Watched him play in high school. Friend of mine that I hunt with here in Houston was in his wedding. I was cautiously optimistic when Bama hired him since SEC fans can be absolutely brutal on coaches and if things don't work out you get thrown under the bus pretty easily, even by your own fanbase.
If you are 48, you better start thinking about what you are going to do when you get to be 78 or 88 and who is going to take care of you? Kids, stay at home, nursing home. And maybe more importantly, how much is that going to cost? We are dealing with this trainwreck with my in-laws who massively underprepared for their twilight retirement years. They wanted to stay at home with help but don’t have near enough money for that, so it is the nursing home and let me tell you, that system is broken. Add in siblings that are worthless and you have family breakdowns all because people didn’t plan their business when it mattered.
re: Replica Mount for Speckled Trout
Posted by MWP on 3/11/26 at 9:48 pm to Elusiveporpi
A 30” trout is comparable to a free range B&C Whitetail. Pretty damn rare. And impressive.
The Big Green Weenie is the worst.
Friday tries to do all he can for Monroe as mayor but it seems like the city council will throw him a road block every chance they get. It is like they want Monroe to fail just so they can see him fail. It’s got to be a kick in the nuts on a daily basis and it is politics at its finest. I commend him for not just walking away from it.
Outsider but native looking in. Ruston and Lafayette have to be the only 2 cities that I would remotely consider moving back for. I would give a honorable mention to Sterlington but I cautiously say that since Monroe and Strop City are neighbors.
re: What is your worst fear?

Not being able to graduate college because I quit going to a class but forgot to drop it. It’s been 30 years since Undergrad but somehow I still get this nightmare so it must be my worst fear.

What type of rifle or shotgun do you keep in your truck?
None, all my firearms leave my truck when I exit the vehicle. If I can't carry after I get out it just stays at home. I live in Houston where these fricktard thieves break into trucks for the sole purpose of taking firearms and they are pretty good at it.

100% this. When you have a buildup in that region that was pretty much comparable to the last few times we went to war over there, it was pretty obvious.
re: Crenshaw is crying his eye out over lack of GOP endorsements
Posted by MWP on 3/3/26 at 10:18 pm to GreatPumpkin
Yeah that entire thing with Eddie started well before Dan’s reputation started taking major blows but obviously was a telling sign on just how questionable his character was. I mean Eddie went to Dan as a Team guy to Team guy for help and Dan not only blew him off but literally questioned his entire motive in the first place literally stabbing Eddie in the back. I think Goggins even had issues with him as well.
re: Looking for some new stretching pre round
Posted by MWP on 3/3/26 at 5:02 pm to makersmark1
Are you looking for a right before you tee off stretching routine or something to get you loose before you start on the range before you play? If it’s the drive up to the parking lot with 10 minutes before tee time scenario, I have a heavy rope that I swing about 20 times that I focus on making a good shoulder turn with a good finish. You can get it into a pretty good back and forth rhythm. Warnibg though, it does look like I’m about to beat a dog with it so I do it in the parking lot but it honestly does a real good job getting me loose when I can’t get to the range. However I almost will cancel a golf game if I can’t warmup on the range. I lift and also train BJJ daily so I live in a perpetual state of being tight so if I can’t get an hour of range work beforehand it is a literal crapshoot if I can even make solid contact until the back nine.

I think what we don’t understand is that some cultures don’t want democracy. We thought the Iraqis would welcome us in and it would be Shangri-La after we removed Sadaam.
That in a nutshell is the amount of epic failure that went in to liberating that shite hole. Anybody with half a brain knew that about Iraq. Granted Sadaam was a special kind of evil but at least he kept things in check over there and that included all his neighbors as well. When we removed him, it became a free for all because they had no clue how to handle democracy and we had no clearcut plan post invasion to fix anything. It was like we have this country of goat herders with a ton of oil, what do we do now other than let Cheney and his minions count all the money they were making and then get the frick out? Iran seems like they could be more stable. I guess we will see.
re: Your reminder that a spotter can’t save you if you drop the bar
Posted by MWP on 3/2/26 at 2:54 pm to boxcarbarney
It’s not that I am against using clamps on a barbell. Nobody wants to hear a bunch of 45’s rattling together on a squat or deadlift plus in those lifts it is kinda unsafe to have heavy weights unsecured even though those old school iron 45’s clanking together meant someone was about to lift some heavy shite, but I digress (I can literally smell the chalk as I type this). On bench though it is dangerous. You might need to seesaw plates off of you if you fail and that’s not happening if you have clamps on the bar. The only way it is acceptable is if you have a spotter that doesn’t mind deadlifting it off your chest if you can’t get it to the rack.
