Have all the homers this weekend been off curve/off speed pitches? Seems like it

You can’t play Frey against right handers in conference. Makes no sense

I think blocking scheme has a lot to do with it. One reason I'm somewhat optimistic about the Atkins hire and his different schemes he's used in the past. No way he's here to just coach TEs

I take BK at his word when he says the goal this Spring wasn't to find the best 5 and plug them in. Let the guys develop and coaches can see where to start in the Fall.

I also think the portal has lot to play here as well. You throw Thompson and Moore with first team last 2 weeks of camp and you are going to potentially lose a couple guys you want to keep for depth and development.

Ethan has been good but the more at bats he gets and film is out there and it’s obvious he stands way off the plate and susceptible to that outside pitch.

Can’t hurt rolling Larson out there for an at bat or two. Brown not seeing it at the moment.

Wow that’s nuts.

Sister lives Haskell/Glen Rose area and their bridge to get in and out of the area is covered and impassable.

Near Cabot is a mess. Our yard looks like a pond now. Reports of roads from Jacksonville and around Cabot flooded.

Have an EcoFlow Delta 2 max.

We’re all electric so wanted something to power the fridge and tv/modem through a power outage.

I’ve tested it and recharged with the solar panels and it works as it should. It’s heavy but would be great at a tailgate

The question I have, is am I better off buying a mini tractor and slowly work on everything at a slower pace since it’s small, or should I just use and borrow a big tractor to knock out those things in a couple weeks?

Don't think this would ever work out unless you're borrowing a tractor from next door. You could try and plan that but as soon as you borrow one and then return it you'll have a tree fall that needs cut up and moved. The wife will want a large potted plant/tree moved etc etc.

Now this is just the convenience aspect; they are expensive but if it's within budget you'll be amazed at how often you use the loader.

100% get one.

Have a b2320 Kubota that is 13 years old and hasn’t missed a beat. Have the front loader and 60 inch belly mower.

Mow, haul mulch, firewood, big potted plants and just about anything. You won’t believe how you lived without one.
Also have a box blade that used to level ground at first and now occasionally for the driveway.

What kind of fence are we talking here? Why do you want aluminum? It's more expensive. You can say kids won't splash in your pool, but water from the pool will make its way to the fence.

Salt water will cause aluminum to corrode, so that part is true. But steel should be significantly cheaper than aluminum.

I just got the quote for steel but he did say on the visit steel was just slightly higher.

Need a fence around our saltwater pool. Got a quote last week and the guy who came out to measure says only steel fence due to the corrosion of saltwater; I was thinking aluminum. Fence isn't right next to the water, at closest it would be 6ft in two spots. No kids anymore who would splash etc. Caught me off guard cause all I've seen looking into options is aluminum. Heck, most of the pool furniture has aluminum and haven't noticed a thing in couple years we've had it.

This legit or this guy selling the higher cost fence?
