Got a call from a local store owner that knows I'm a WT/Russell's fan. The 2025 release of Russell's 13 just landed and she set me one to the side. Now I can finally do that side by side with the Russell's 15 I got last year in Texas. (y)

Northwestern Arkansas in November when the fall colors are brightest is pretty spectacular to see

This is exactly who I got it from too, as he was my baseball hero growing up. Can't believe someone recognized him for that, nice job Z! And @Gally - no I didn't do it every time. Didn't do it to every runner. And I really had no intention to be malicious or to be a deliberate richard that...

I have two: 1. At my high school, I still hold the record for most hit-by-pitches in a season (42) and in a career (140). We averaged 30-35 games per season, so better than one per game. I played 1st base, started all 4 years, and my "thing" was that on any pickoff attempt to first I would...

We had a situation like this just last year in my 1QB dynasty league. After the rookie draft, prior to Week 1, Team A decided he wanted to start a rebuild so he sold Saquon and Lamar for a couple firsts and seconds. By the trade deadline, Team A is in third place, almost a lock for a playoff...

12 team 1QB 1PPR. No TEP. One owner has a lot of TE depth and I've only got Pitts and Otton, so last week I asked his price on Kraft. He sent me this offer: Give: Braelon Allen Get: Tucker Kraft Felt like a super smash accept even though I'm the Breece Hall owner.

I've never left a dynasty league, but I'm only in 3 of them. Two of them have the exact same 12 owners, it's just that one league is SF and one (the original) is 1QB. All three leagues have survived > 5 years without anyone quitting. I don't like joining a league where I don't know anyone...

If you'd told me going into the finals that LSU would only score in 3 out of 18 innings, and in two of those three it would be a singular run, I'd have said Coastal sweeps them. Damn impressive what LSU's pitching staff did. They used 3 pitchers combined in the finals. Just wow.

Just watched the Pee Wee Herman documentary on Max the last couple of nights and I'm suddenly tempted to break out the "I know you are but what am I?" in random conversation today.

Driving about two months ago I came up behind a car doing ~15 mph with a horribly wobbling back tire. Looked like it might fall off any moment. I managed to flag down the teenage driver and get her to pull over at the next possible spot. She had TWO lugnuts out of five on her wheel. She...

My daughter was a dancer in the local state beauty pageant earlier this month. 3 nights of preliminary competition and then the finale night. They trotted out a different past winner each night to sing it...before a dang beauty pageant...

I'm in Mississippi. Haven't seen any red label 4R in my state yet, but I found two of the three in Louisiana so far.

I haven't found a bad Four Roses Single Barrel yet. I've had OESO but it was a store pick at barrel strength, and it was fantastic. Hoping to find all the red labels that 4R is starting to put out so I can do an ultimate side by side of all ten recipes at the same 100 proof. They're only...

If I'm sitting at 3 or 4 and staring at Tet or Hunter as my pick, I would take your offer in a heartbeat.
