D-League

[FutureCityCats]

The Ole Miss game was another blowout, so I went out. On my own. No crew. Two observations:

1. I really hate Spanx. There was a wedding party at the bar I was at, and there were upskirts galore. Problem was, 90% of the ladies had those damn Spanx on. The one exceptional one (I dismissed the married ones) more than made up for it. She had on a white lace thong that was damn near sheer...yep, she had a landing strip.
2. I missed the memo where women who are with a guy come up to another guy (me) trying to get them on the dance floor. Yeah, alcohol had a lot to do with it, but I'm old school. Dance with the one that brung ya.

Ghost, you were, gulp, on your own? How did you make it with your sidekick? Old school rules! I was at a referee camp in Evansville one time, at a bar that night. Two very hot chicks were dancing together. When they set down, I went over to ask one to dance. She said that we had better not. She said her boyfriend was in the restroom but he had her and her friend to dance together, waiting for some guy to ask her to dance, then he was going to bust his head. I said, good talking with you. Old school, didn't want my head busted. But where I come from, we bust each others head. FCC.

Dawgs looking decent against the Nittany Lions so far today. EverBank Field isn't too far from Athens, unlike State College, PA. Good job by the former Vandy coach.

• I've been trying to collect my thoughts about the thread. I guess things change & evolve. I agree with some of what LEK said. I'm not sure what the founding fathers of the D wanted this to be, other than a place for a bunch of second rate posters to hang out. Maybe KS has a D-League constitution somewhere.
• Enough about that.
• I was starting to worry that KS didn't survive the sleepover
• Where are Willy & Maverick? Wonder if they need a bail bondsman?
• Got my truck detaied this morning. That was my wifes Christmas gift to me. The shop is ran by a Iraqi guy. He said he is actually trained as an OR nurse, but not licensed in the US. He does this to pay the rent & his daughter goes to school. I stayed at his shop and helped. I like doing the work myself, but really wanted a lesson from a pro & some tips, etc... Most places charge double for that.
• Jed -I'm glad your daughter is ok.
• Triangle - I'm glad your kid is doing well.
• Jason - yours will be here soon. I hope she is healthy.
• I can't remember if I mentioned this before, but my daughter was 10 weeks early. Stayed in the NICU for 71 days. One of her nurses during that time was pregnant. Her daughter Anna has some bad problems (wheelchair bound, etc...). I see the little girl at school some. There was a time in our NICU stay that we thought our daughter may end up with cerebral palsy & be in a wheelchair. Very thankful.
• I opened facebook to see that people are wishing happy birthday to a former hs classmate that died over a year ago. Strange.
• Big10 sucking in big bowl games, BAU.
• I hope LEK is ok. In recent weeks his posts have seemed a bit dark and interospective. He started a thread about adoption, has mentioned friends that committed suicide, and trying to be healthier. I know that when I was down & having a tough time, he helped me.
• In the time that it has taken me to write this BS, Mav has re-appeared. Welcome Back.
• I have no idea who Jordon Smith is. Clueless.

Double likes for 93. Excellent post young man.

Concerned also, because indeed, we are about saving lives, saving lives. FCC.

Somehow my post got tangled up with yours 93, so I repeat

KS, what's up? Long time no see. How we posed to make it without a popo, el presidenta? FCC.

Life. Life is what's up. And this place moves too fast for me to keep up. So if i don't respond to something it's probably because i didn't bother to catch up on the 20 pages i missed between my last post and current.

This place hasn't needed el presidente for a long, long time. Tis a full on democracy now. Sad but true.

Bullshit. This joint is anarchy. We need el Presidente ruling with iron.

Maybe not broke, but certainly in need of a tune-up.

Well, then be a leader. I just can't see how telling folks that their posts suck can be constructive in any way. You cannot mandate what people post. Random, random. Realistically, it seem like an age conflict thing..Rodney King theory needed.

 

[wildcatdonf]

I'm heading North soon. Work is done. Mind and body are very tired. Gameday is upon us. Can't wait. The grandchildren gang are coming. They called this AM to make sure that I would be there, Last week and this week have been crazy. I had to stop and think of what day of the week it was several times. Needed off day tomorrow.

 

[wildcatdonf]

I need a mug of coffee and a couple of SC's brownies.

My father asked to keep his lawn mower in my garage because the moisture from the creek at his place is rusting it.

Anyone else have such a problem?

How did it get wet? Why, water of course.

A large AMEN to this post. Rodney King indeed. It's looking like a new thread to me. There. I said it. Y'all should be glad people post anything here. But to dictate what people can say or not say is wrong, wrong, wrong. I don't give a damn who you are or how long you've been posting here. It ain't right. What has been said plus a lot implied has done it's damage. It's very sad to me. Before all this crap happened, I was having a lot of fun. I even had two smiley faces in a row. I'm having trouble recovering from all the crap. Sorry. Over. FCC.

You brought it up... Again- so...

I've tried lending my opinion without saying with a broadbrush that the D sucks as of late. As Jed mentioned... Velvet glove approach.

Condensed, witty, and with a point helps curbing the abyss trajectory (I say again). However, don't be so freakin offended. You can be over 60 and fit right in here. I subscribe that it isn't an age thing, but a writing style thing. There are shitty young posters by the boatload too. Regardless of age, by 'MANDATE' develop your own voice and post away...

Admittedly, I'm no Hemingway - but I try to be interesting with the majority of my posts.

Whatevs...Just want to echo LEKs sentiment without being vicious.

- Stopped at Enchiladas Y Mas for take-out Mexican. Muy bueno.

- Got some beer and emergency beer and an emergency, emergency beer locked and loaded.

- Go Cats!

If you don't like long post or don't like me..........skip this lol

Just my 2 cents then I'm planning to let it die:

I don't think anyone is trying to be a dictator. Why do I think it wasn't a dictatorship, because it wasn't. More than one saw a need for a critique, but one stepped forward. I think someone offered some constructive criticism. I likened it to giving the velvet hammer. Even if you coated it with softness, still gonna hurt. I needed it. I readily admit some of my postings were stupid, not adding to the flow, and just not needed. I wasn't offended but I self reflected.

No one is a perfect poster. No one will be. Randomness is good but redundant randomness..............is that really randomness? I firmly believe all are still welcome. This thread started out with a few, then grew grew and grew. Why did it grow? I believe it was the welcoming aspect of it being able to post without judgement. Some may say, well it's being judged now. I don't feel that way. I feel it's being critiqued to round it back to what it was. The critique was like a big vat of alcohol, when you jump in, it will find what it needs. If the critique finds someone and really stings them to the point of not posting, then they don't understand what the D is and was never to the point of being a "full" member and truly having an understanding of what it was all about.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents. I am nobody special here. I am very special here. One of the gang offering their view. Carries no weight. Carries weight. IMO we are all like that but.....................a select few can step in and say something and I really reflect. Those are the founding fathers of the D. I like the D. It's helped me to enjoy my experience on CI to a level I had never been able to. I can't put people on ignore. Been on since 2001 and don't have a ton of posts. That's because outside of here, I am reading as a mod and trying to help the forums be better for folks. Here I can be one of the regular folks without all that bullshit.

I think people should post however they want. If the D makes a move to tweek things, I listen. Again just my 2 cents and NOT trying to piss anyone off.

No one is dictating, just like you are free to shoot anyone in the head with a gun. But there are consequences. Others weren't having fun. Not implying it's like getting shot in the head, but close. What I'm saying is, freedom is an illusion. You really aren't free to post whatever you want, the mods would ban you. This thread that lane is a little bit wider to drive than others.

This thread is therapy, this thread is predicated on having fun, fart jokes, porn, drinking, etc.

It wasn't easy posting it, but there was a point. No need to rehash.

Last couple of days, posts are more concise, and it's not 20 pages of just bullshit. Been better, more interesting.

It was killing this thread. My opinion, and others. I know it's not shared by all.

Arkansas now up 45-23. Man the SEC is looking good in the bowl games.

I think Ole Miss will not be an easy W. At all. If Moody is on like really on, could be an L.

My KState Wildcats are sucking. I know the KState kicker's uncle. We served together years ago and stay in touch.

Watching Texas-Texas Tech BB right now. Of course I'm pulling for Tubby.

Hopefully we keep in front of Old Miss tonight. Always nervous in conference play.

Go Cats!

Austin do you wanna know who won the TT and Texas game lol.

 

[FutureCityCats]

I'm fine. Doing what I think is best

Well, uh, thanks for posting. I know you didn't have to. I suppose I understand. I finally went on a rant a few posts back. Wish you were back though, I mean really wish you were back. You gave balance to this thread. Of course, if you change your mind it would be a breath of fresh air. Doing some pondering myself. Again, thanks for the response. Really miss you. FCC.
