GYERO ARCHIVE

[WayneDougan]

98% of high school baseball players believe that they could have played college ball and even the minor leagues.

I was originally going to go to Vandy and told my high school baseball coach I was planning to walk on. He looked at me funny and said, “you do realize that’s like high A minor league baseball?” Translation: you have no effing chance. I did get recruited by schools like Centre so I can validate that I could have played college ball - it would have just been D3.

I once dropped 39 in a church league game so something very similar here.

 

[anthonys735]

-I have not. I'm just being prejudice... sorry but I'm really passionate about hosiery.

Chad is so far out of his lane right now.

If you did that you should have at least played pro ball in Europe.

That's just disrespectful.

I respect it. You may want to check them out for tennis tho.

Homage is an outstanding clothier when it comes to comfort. Only haterz would argue otherwise.

The 95 game in the SECT with Big and Little A was peak UK basketball fandom. Uncle Anth always made sure that me and Dad were wingmen, we sat right above them.

Skywalker was out front wearing a lb of gold, posing for pics with the kids.

The Georgia Dome “Catlanta” game atmosphere was 10/10, something of legend these days. Even the Dr Pepper Fan Experience was dope.

For as good as Nashville is, it’s not close to 1995-2008 Atlanta.

Everyone of my close high school friends that played baseball were destined to be college stars until they started drinking and smoking pot.

All the young gyero kids have hope for college scholarships after the precedent set by 05 and TMFH jr.

-you son of a bitch. Not even top 25... although the Vietnamese toddlers that make them are grateful to earn half a bowl of rice a day from the sweatshop churning them out.

Here you go:

dress: pantherella or dapper classics, must be OTC.

casual: chup or darn tough

Sport/outdoor: darn tough

Are any of these no show? Because I like socks, I’m not that much a savage but I don’t like them to show.

And yes I’m well aware mid calf socks are back in style (looks terrible, just like wearing “sneakers” out and about) like when we were young and I assume knee high Kerry skittles are next on the comeback.

@catlanta33 tbey can expel a 10 year old without their parents physically there? In KY, you can’t be expelled until you and your parents get to go before the school board and plead their case.

I know this because my mom is on the Scott county school board and they just went through this with a kid telling a security guard he was going to kill him and do all sorts of awful things to him with a bunch of classmates backing the guards story.

Enjoy while you can and stock up. Rumors are Fanatics is circling and Homage may be selling. It's a joke. Michael Rubin could be on fire and I'm not wasting my internal piss to try to help put the fire out

 

[rudd1]

-chup and darn tough have no show options.

 

[TCPUKChamps]

Prob the best 2 mins Ive ever seen live. Crowd was absolutely just stunned leaving arena last night. Was awesome

There was apparently a board decision and it's also a private school. No idea on how it all unfolded to get to expulsion but they did.

 

[roguemocha]

Private school is all I needed to know, whole different set of rules.

Should have hit that second free throw. Not impressed.

So is @SAECATFAN, iirc.

Car bought in Lexington. Mission accomplished.

Wife hopping back onto plane 🤪

-haven't watched the NBA since HS/early college. Thinking about paying attention again... I know the Pistons suck now, but that was (is) my squad. Mom's family from Michigan... my uncle Mike (rip) got me on em. Minus whale.

-headed to Tucson in the morning... then off to Cottonwood/Sedona for a bit. A much needed respite. Mrs Rudd will have to work the first few days at her convention... so I'll get a head start.

^playing golf in a corporate scramble on Monday. Haven't swung a club in 4-5 years... before that it was another 4-5 years. I'll be fine. Natural athlete.

^tennis team went undefeated in league play. State tournament is in the ville June 7-9. Need a place to shower/crash. Driving to and fro is irritating.

-go cats.

 

[Kooky Kats]

Vols get Doug Shows in TBArena, we may as well forget it. We’ll get Viscovy and Zeigler scraping our guards arms to shreds with no calls. Z should wear a helmet.

 

[anthonys735]

Robert is moving up my all time list. Definitely top 5.

 

[krazykats]

Vegas is very high on the Vols. Nothing left to do but find out tomorrow.

I feel like we’ve been better on the road than at home, and they don’t want to guard us anymore than we want to guard them.

A 10 point spread just seems crazy.

 

[wcc31]

- Any other team, Dillingham would be the #1 fan favorite. Reed’s an all-timer though.

- Mash on Rusillo earlier in the week. Nothing groundbreaking but good to hear from him.

- Decided to try out Childers 2023 music again. I just can’t with it. I find his last few years very disappointing.

- New Riff just dropped their 8-year which I’m sure will be good. It’s $67 which comparatively these days isn’t bad until I start to think, “Hmm - 8-year New Riff for $67 or 8-year Buffalo Trace or Elijah Craig for $30?” The bourbon world is off its ass these days.

- My brothers-in-law and niece just touched ground from Colorado. So excited to see them. One of the best parts of getting married is gaining another family. Plus, their daughter is 9 months older than my oldest and they are pumped to see each other. Cousins are one of the cooler relationships you can have, imo (hell I have 23 of them).

-Speaking of youth sports, I grew up selling candy bars for uniforms- so if I have a kid come to my door or selling something outside a store, I’ll buy nearly every time. But what’s up with all these bourbon raffles?

 

[WayneDougan]

-haven't watched the NBA since HS/early college. Thinking about paying attention again..

It's awful. No defense.

 

[PTI (pti)]

This is fantastic, and well deserved. I’ll be rooting like hell for Joey as a Blue Jay.

Baseball is better with rampant steroid use. See: the entire 1990s. #FreeMarte

 

[PTI (pti)]

Welp.

There’s goes Martes NL ROY award.


Guess we now know why they signed Candelario and held onto India.

 

[wcc31]

If only we had 17 infielders on the roster.

While I understand the premise, OTOH an 8Year Willet is retailing at 299, so it’s really just up to the buyer.

$67 is on the less expensive side and I believe it’s at 112 proof which is different from Buffalo Trace or Elijah Craig.

Good news for buyers though distributors are about done with new brands and January was one of the worst spirits sales months in 6 years.

The bubble is popping.

Sounds like the perfect time to open a distillery, IYAM

Absolutely. Tourism isn’t down and people are just tired of all the new pop ups.

Anyone looking to open a distillery isn’t in it for a short term cash grab, even though several have been bought out recently for insanely stupid money.

Starting Five F Off List UT Edition:

PG - Vescovi - old flopping idiot
SG - Bradshaw - try hard idiot
SF - Hopson - probably living in hopkinsville
PF - Chism - stupid headband
PF - Williams - Flopping loser

Honorable mention to that big loser foreign center they had last year.

 

[Hank Camacho]

Vescovi is third team at best. No one can ever top that leprechaun twerp Tony Harris as starting PG -- it isn't possible. I still seethe thinking about him.

Ron Slay started on that list with a bullet but by the end I kind of liked (and respected) the big lug.

 

[legalbeagle123]

F Tennessee

 

[warrior_SW]

F*ck Fulkerson’s flopping bitch ass too.


Don’t really have any opinion on him but Jarnell Stokes can eat my ass too for making us listen to Dykes blather on about him not knowing how to stretch for a whole game.

 

[klambert6]

Wow forgot about Fulkerson just a brutal omission. Guy was the worst.

Obviously only had guys post 2000's as it's impossible to encapsulate the entirety of Tennessee's suck.
