  1. Thanks for the info. The one time my grandfather tried to take me hunting - I was about - did not go well. We were trying to kill some racoons that kept getting into the garden. I purposely made a bunch of noise each time we saw the reflection of their eyes in the trees. He probably killed them all the next night.
  2. At this point, I want either Gary or Steven to win. Waz is a useless, POS. Him telling others what to do w/o seemingly accomplishing anything himself rubs me the wrong way. Dan is ok, but a follower. Steven seems like a genuinely nice guy. Gary is crazy, but funny and fair. Jeff. Geez man. I know he got somewhat screwed by the producers. I don't think they gave the contestants clear guidance as to how this was supposed to go. They've always been there to help their partner make it to the end. Suddenly, they're supposed to not want anyone else to get to the end EXCEPT at the beginning where they wouldn't make it unless their partner made it to day 21. It seems convoluted. All that being said, one can be confident, even cocky, without denigrating others. His play doesn't bother me as much as his mouth. For example, keeping the pelts to himself is a perfectly fine strategy if that's what the game is supposed to be. Rubbing it in and making others suffer takes it too far. Anyway, curious as to how this ends up.
  3. I just started Season 10. I've got a question for any of y'all that hunt. In Season 9, and on previous seasons, those that hunt have been careful not to take a lazy shot. Losing arrows aside, they were extremely concerned about the cruelty a "bad" shot would be to a maimed animal. In Season 9, a couple of them wouldn't even take shots on a beaver that was just a few feet in front of them because they weren't 100% they could get to the animal. On ep 1 of Season 10, the guy from Hawaii took two shots at a bear that were so far away, he missed the entire 400 lb animal. Granted, I know you can't just walk up to a bear close enough to ensure the shot was good, but was what he did appropriate? If the kill zone on a bear is less than 25%, and he missed twice, wasn't he more likely to just maim the bear than kill it? I'm just curious as one who has never hunted. I have a lot of respect for those that are literally starving, but are respectful enough not to take a bad shot.

    I mean, when you put your CB in as the 5th taker over your supposed #10... Yes, I know it's just his number, but good Lord he's terrible.

    Of course. I had to be Roldan. Fucking scrub.

    It wasn't a criticism. It was a bad ass shot that went off his shin.

    Whelp. We got the better keeper, but I don't trust our PK takers.

    I typed my last response before your post @ztejas. It wasn't in response to what you typed.

    What a shock. Yedlin with a lazy ass play. I really don't like most of the players on the pitch right now. And how the F we even get a shot on goal going forward is lost on me.

    I'm really glad Roldan replaced one of the only guys on the team w/ any ounce of creativity.

    Can we not find some AYSO, soccer mom to teach these dumbasses to keep their hands down in the box?

    I don't see it that way. I mean, we get summer tourneys every year in which our backups get PT and we get something to watch. Yes, I get the money angle. But WTF else is everyone going to do each summer. I damn well rather watch a "B" league tourney over some random MLS games. And I watch a lot of MLS games. Plus, the money and exposure help a lot of less established teams. If people are going to attend and watch, who cares if it's less important tourney?

    Yep. Euro soccer is a grind. The summer is usually considered a necessary break to recover.

    Found it and sorry for being off topic. I've been drinking and I'm heading to Vegas at 5AM. Anyway, 2005 Gold Cup. PKs against Panama. My best friend and I had, at this point, traveled to several games to see the US play. We're at a sports bar watching this game. Go to 3:20. In retrospect, one of the funniest PK takes I've ever seen. It wasn't funny at the time.
