This is honestly a really good point.Beyond that, our only crime is caring enough about stopping insurance fraud to fund a full time position in the county DA's office dedicating to prosecuting people who try to steal from us.

So basically bilking folks out of their insurance proceeds despite paying premiums forever.

Tied the rookie record for tDs in a game...before halftime.

Do you just spin a wheel to choose who to root for? :confused:

Good start for Marcus....not so much for Jamous.

I grew up in Houston, lived in Nashville with season tickets the year they went to the super bowl. My patriots affection is based on my man crushes of Brady and gronkowski. But I'm a titans fan.

Had a pretty miserable existence this year with stress levels so high I sort of expect a stroke or heart attack to topple me. Last night I volunteered to oversee 16 teams of micro soccer (boys 5-6) as a coaching aid to assist many of the first time coaches who had no idea what to do with a team full of kindergartners. It was mayhem from the start trying to assign everybody enough space on the field, direct frantic parents to the right coach, help out coaches who had the deer in the headlight look and keep organized chaos from erupting. I volunteered for this largely because I'm on the board and they asked for help, but also because I am desperate to find excuses to be out of the house. In an ideal world, I would be watching the opening game of the NFL season with a large beer on my new giant TV in my refinished basement/media room. But this #### ain't ideal at all. It's a house full of unhappiness. As bad as I thought it was going to be with twins, it is much worse. So bad, in fact, that I look at my job in a turbulent stock market where I've lost my largest two partners this past month as a vacation when in fact, it's panic inducing currently. My wife is a sleep deprived mess. When I come home, I immediately take one of the fussy twins into the ultra femme Baby Bjorn and pace around like an elephant until I calm him down. Then I pass him off or lay him down and grab the other fussy twin. When I'm not doing that, I'm either helping with dinner or doing the dishes. I also need to make myself available for my needy 3 year old daughter who equal parts princess and satan. Then there's my older sons who - god bless them - are cognizant of the situation and help out where and when they can, but I just don't have the bandwidth to interact with them the way I used to and love to (outside of coaching their soccer team, which I'll give up when I'm dead). And that sucks because they are in middle school now and that time period of my life was almost as bad as what I'm muddling through now. Soon enough, my MIL - who has been a saint and a tremendous help - will need to go back home and it will only get worse. The things my wife and I promised each other we wouldn't do we're doing now - keeping score over who does what in this house. And we can't even really talk about it because either her mom or a child is omnipresent. I've given away all my Ducks tickets this year in an effort to show I'm serious about helping out on weekends, but it like everything else I feel like I do to help goes unnoticed. Which is understandable considering how much of a toll this has taken on my wife. Part of being a dad is making giant sacrifices and being okay without appreciation. I'm sure my wife could write the same exact thing. It just sucks so bad right now and I want to hit the fast forward button on a remote and get to the part where the infants are settled and calm and happy and not waking up furious at the world and making noises that make me want to jump out of a window. All that bull#### about "Cherish these moments, they go by so fast!"....#### that noise. Give me some pleasant 7 year olds now and you can keep the cute little ####### infant angel crap. I know, I know...point to the shirt. My bad. On me. I know it will get better. I need to work on some internal behaviors to make it less stressful. This is venting and it helps to get it off my chest. I don't get the luxury of spending time with friends anymore to talk to them about my life, so this is really all I've got for an outlet right now. My parents are in Europe, my sister has the attention span Super Happy Fun Ball and my wife is and has been my most trusted companion for support has no interest in tales of woe because her tales are much much woer.

That is all.
Just catching up after a few days (didn't die!). Obviously I have no advice, just lots of :wub: to send your way.

SEATTLE CORNHOLE DETAILS

Mexican Breakfast and morning drinking - Fonda La Catrina (in Georgetown)

5905 Airport Way S

Seattle, WA 98108

NFL Viewing and day drinking - Box House Saloon (Pioneer Square)

124 S Washington St

Seattle, WA 98104

The Mexican breakfast is just a suggestion. Fonda la Catrina opens at 10:00AM. If anybody wants to meet up for Huevos Rancheros and drinks, say so. Otherwise we should probably just fast forward to the Box House Saloon at ...(11AM?, noon?).

Roll call...express an opinion.

I am in. And I would love to eat Mexican food first.

The Kristas are in for both.

I think I've posted this before, but my GB worked at the Football HOF for a year. He met a ton of HOFers and said they were almost all very friendly and treated everyone really well. And then Berman came in for the HOF ceremonies and acted like he was the most important person in the world and everyone else was garbage. He gave explicit instructions that he was not to be talked to by workers, was rude to everyone and was constantly yelling at people and throwing tantrums.

Not a surprise at all.

Of course he could be the nicest guy in the world and I would still hate seeing him on TV.

He was also a #### to my stepmother, who is actually actually the kindest person on the planet, so I've hated him since then.

 
I bet the Giants are glad to have agreed to paying a quarterback that throws the ball away and stops the clock instead of one that slides and keeps it running.

 
GC apparently a huge Federer fan. Who needed to talk a lot about it during a Cowboys game. Pretty sure I didn't sign up for a fully formed relationship.

 
I got twenty seconds into that before I realized I was listening to the Misfits "20 Eyes" in the background of my computer and sort of got discombobulated. But it's cool.

20 Eyes.

Carry on.

Astro Zombies.

Everybody that is saying that this is, well, basically a disaster, I don’t care what you all say. Others like it, others don’t. I respect your opinions. But while my video is getting over 1K on here, it’s getting over 8,000,000 views on Facebook and getting reposted all from Alaska to Florida, all the way up to New York, and this was taken in Texas! 100.5 MYfm and KBMT - 12 have also recognized and reposted my vid. My face is being shown all over American, and perhaps will also be shown all over to Japan soon. So anybody that has something bad to say, #### You All, I’m going viral.

She really seems to have things in perspective.

 
Just read the story. I have been to Lumberton. No place on earth outside of Jasper is more "east Texas" than Lumberton.

I don't really have a reference for East Texas

Where does it fit on a scale of Paradise to Bakersfield?

Rebellious teens in Lumberton yell at their parents, "you can't hold me back! As soon as I graduate, I'm moving on and up in the world...I'm headed to Bakersfield!"
