    For those of us not tracking “knoxtnhorn” for his Trooper Taylor insights, can you maybe link us? I can’t see shit.

    Sorry.  Drunk post.  I had a lot of connections to the Vol football team when I lived in Knoxville.  I heard some things.  You know that argument Texas fans used to have where half the fanbase wanted us to cheat/win at all costs and the other wanted to maintain Texas' morality?  At one point, I believe TT was being considered for a job at Texas.  This would have definitely destroyed Texas' morality argument.

    no offense but i am exclusively interested in @Helobious prediction for the vols in the tourney. 

    All good. And you know I'm just giving you and my Vol grad wife a bit of trash talk.

    To dovetail,…Trooper Tahlor also spent time at Baylor…

    See my post on the football board.  Trooper Taylor was a dirty POS 20 years ago.  When living in Knoxville, I heard stories.

  4. Crazy considering Johansson played like 5 games for us.

    I meant "crazy" in a good way.  And, yes, I know AJ played more than 5 games.

    Is Griselda any good?

    I liked it.  It's kind of a cross between the cheesiness/suspect acting of Scarface and the well acted/well written Narcos.

    Just about to finish up The Signal.  It's a German series w/ 4 episodes.  Other than all the plot holes, it's not bad.

  6. Chris Richards was partially responsible for giving up a 96th minute goal to Luton Town just now.  It was a last-second ball into the box.  His mark scored, though, it could have been a zone mark.  I'd be effing furious if I was a CP fan.  The mids and forwards were hotdogging it during added time.  There was no concern for ball control and/or running the clock.  They were too busy doing backheels, trick passes, and trying to score.  They ended up turning the ball over, which led to the goal.

  7. Finally caught up.  A lot of unlikeable players in this version.  The loser tribe had/has a guy that couldn't even remotely back up his mouth, the most useless player of all time, and an Indian dude that may be batshit crazy.  Good luck with that.

    You're a better man than I am. I'd love to participate in some form of athletic competition,  but just going to the grocery store and having to take several breaks due to pain kind of dims my hopes of it ever happening. 

    Yeah, I'm jealous...

    My wife and my work wives (the teachers at school) have been bitching at me to quit for years.  I play on Sundays, then limp until about Thursday.  Just as I'm feeling good again, next game up.  Problem is I don't like to exercise.  I just like to compete.  If I quit soccer, it's not like I'll take up jogging, yoga, or some other form of healthy activity.  I'll just get fat.  Luckily for me, teaching requires me to be on my feet for 12,000+ steps a day, which helps.

  9. Yep.  I'm still playing soccer after all these years.  Metallic knees and all.  I can't walk away just yet.  First game this past Sunday.  I hadn't done a ton of preparation/exercise over the past 3 months, so I was worried about how my body would react.  Turns out, it wasn't an issue.  I pinched a nerve in my neck the morning of, picking up my soccer bag.  On the IR before getting into the car.

    In every UT game she has called her bias shows.

    Yeah.  That was ridiculous.  When she was on the far side during the beginning of the 2nd half, Disu was constantly getting mugged.  Then on the other end, touch fouls.

    That should for sure get us in right? Feel a lot better after the last two games. Sure I’d like to avoid 8/9 seeds but if we don’t, we can beat anyone on any night…and we will be away. 

    I would think so, but (hypothetically; not expectedly) losing the final 3 on our schedule would not be ideal.
