  1. From Northeast Texas, FIGHT!!!
  2. Watching this video made me wonder what the longest down field tackle has been made by an interior lineman? This guy probably never thought he would be hit from behind that far downfield by a 300 plus pounder. Great hustle and effort by Ford. Nice.
  3. Agree. It was moving.
  4. Merry Christmas and let 2021 be a Happier New Year!
  5. I was prepared to fly back in 2018 out of Tyler but they were grounded because of the weather. I was out of town in 2019. Covid canceled the event in 2020. Hopefully they will make the East Texas circuit in 2021.
  6. Flying in a B-17 or a B-24 is on my bucket list.
  7. Many thanks for the quick response. I am happy once again.
  8. For the longest, on both my laptop and on my iPhone, when I would click on a topic to read it it would always automatically take me to the topic page and entry where I last viewed it. Now when I click on a topic it always takes me to the first page. For topics that have multiple pages it is a pain to figure out where I last read. What happened? How can I fix it?
  9. Part of being in the Man Club should require driving a truck and carrying a pocket knife.
  10. I will watch just about anything with Edward G. Robinson in it.
  11. Does that also work with “I think therefore I am”?
  12. Exhausted. Spent the last 2 days trying to catch up on this thread. Afraid to go to sleep tonight because so much is said but nothing happens. This thread needs a summary thread at least twice a day.
  13. Clockwork. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
  14. Was Bowsers knee down or was it on top of someone else? Would have preferred that to be a forecasted pick 6
  15. Ravens should have challenged the catch. LookeD like only one foot was in bounds.
  16. News flash for me, Kate is of the Mara/Rooney clan that owns the Giants and Steelers. I am old but, yeah....
  17. Well, for me I have a 17 month old granddaughter, daughter and SIL who I will not get to see this Christmas because of concerns about of Covid. The granddaughter, my first grandchild, is getting to the age of recognizing things and enjoying things. I was really looking forward to her seeing the tree and house all decorated.
  18. A heads up would be nice. Having to use my shirt sleeve to wipe my eyes.
  19. Nice collection of Civil War items. Though I do not collect CW the era still fascinates me. I can’t tell you how many CW sites I have been too. A buddy of mine that I work with is from the Gettysburg area where his family owns an apple orchard. You can see their property from Round Top. It has been in his family for decades. During the CW troops camped on their property. They are always coming across CW relics. Makes me jealous.
  20. CC was once part of the USCe system and when they decided to get into sports they wanted to pay homage to the Gamecocks so they came up with their mascot but one upped the Cocks by naming themselves after a fancier chicken.
  21. The crudeness, subtleties, composition, references, accuracy, all leads to greatness. Nice work.
  22. Blackmail, 1939, Edward G. Robinson. A fugitive from a chain gang becomes an oil-well firefighter and meets the man who framed him. Blackwell's Island, 1939, John Garfield. A reporter sends a mobster to prison, then goes in after him posing as a convict. Castle on the Hudson, 1940, John Garfield. Sing Sing's warden lets a convict visit his girlfriend on the honor system, but something goes wrong. Each Dawn I Die, 1939, James Cagney. An innocent reporter is found guilty of murder and is sent to jail while his friends at the newspaper try to find out who framed him. I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang, 1932, Paul Muni. An innocent man is sent to a prison farm, where he endures the dehumanizing effects of a cruel criminal justice system. Invisible Stripes, 1939, George Raft. An ex-convict joins bank robbers t finance his younger brother's honest business. These are what I can think of at the moment. There were a lot of them made in the 1930's starring Robinson, Raft, Bogart, Garfield, Muni, etc.
  23. After my YT of a swift crash that has hit 100k views, I didn't know they were a slight notch above loggers until I read the comments. Now I watch out for them. Low hour drivers apparently. I know a Swift driver. He is young. His first trucking experience. Their trucks are governed to 67 mph.
  24. Newsflash for you; Royal Caribbean put out a call for volunteers to go on a free cruise to check-out/confirm Covid safety protocols. In a very short time they had over 100,000 volunteers.
  25. ESPN loves the SEC thus so forth and so on...
