re: Finebaum is such a bama homer

Finebaum is a bama homer
This gets old. Either you're young or have amnesia. When Bama was going through probation and a million different Mike's as coaches, he was doing nothing but piling on. He bets on the horse most likely to win and tries to make as much noise as possible. He's an entertainer, not a fan.

re: Robert E. Lee Statue Removed from Lee Park in Dallas

Anyone who knows any REAL facts about general Lee should be embarrassed/pissed by this BS. He didn't lead the confederate army because he was pro slavery. He lead lead the army because he was a Virginian and believed in states rights.
The left in this country is rewriting history as fast as they can.

It's called growing up. I still get pretty animated during games but I'm over the outcome within an hour of the game ending. That on top of late games and it being difficult to take the whole family, I've just learned to enjoy the games and when it's over, it's over.

Mobile has the same problems but the state is wasting federal money on worthless projects (northern beltline in Birmingham) instead of protecting the states biggest tourism. There's a partially complete 98 bypass just north of the current 98 that the state won't finish (you can see it bright as day on google earth). The I-10 tunnel needs to be bypassed with a wider, higher speed bridge and the bayway needs to be widened. Baldwin county accounts for a huge part of the states tourism and gets treated like a stepchild because of Birmingham and Montgomery.
re: Who here has never received a speeding ticket?
Posted by TideJoe on 8/10/17 at 11:16 am
Been pulled over at least 8-10 times and never got a ticket. I've found that if you're respectful and don't show any attitude, you've got a chance of walking without a ticket. It also helps that you're tag, insurance, license, etc are in order.

Texas isn't BBQ. There are a dozen states that do it better...... with pork.
re: Price of Tickets
Posted by TideJoe on 8/9/17 at 10:54 am
I still buy my season tickets every year but I sell most of the tickets. Decent parking that allows tailgating got really expensive in Tuscaloosa several years ago. Unless you know someone or don't mind getting on campus bright and early for a 6pm game, tailgating is a pain. That and all the late kickoffs did me in. Hotels in town are way too expensive (if you can find one) and driving back home after a late game sucks.
re: Who taught you to fish and what the biggest youve landed in inches?
Posted by TideJoe on 7/29/17 at 7:47 pm
Dad and uncle taught me. No idea in inches but I've landed an 85 lb cobia (bottom fishing believe it or not) and a 79 lb AJ. The aj was landed quicker but pulled a lot harder. I was done for a while after that one.

Yep. Work was covered with state polos and t-shirts today.
re: What would you do if your millennial kid was unemployed after college?
Posted by TideJoe on 7/19/17 at 6:21 am
Don't waste money on a worthless degree and then finding a job is easy. If you only plan on completing an undergraduate degree, stick with technical (computer science, engineering, accounting), teaching, or health professions. Pretty much everything else requires more education to get a decent job.
re: Do you ever wonder or fear suffering is around the corner?
Posted by TideJoe on 7/19/17 at 6:14 am
No wondering about it. The closer I get to 40 (only 2 years out) the more I'm falling apart. I'm in good shape (6' 190) but i feel like shite. Stomach issues, high blood pressure, neuropathy in the hands and feet..... I feel like I'm 70, not 38. I guess I just played too hard too long.

Present. Laying in bed and starring at the ceiling wide awake. You'd think that remodeling a bathroom most of the day would put me to sleep but it doesn't.
re: How many folks believe the Great barrier reef and Florida Keys coral reef are in danger

All these climate change studies tying the event to human behavior absolutely drive me nuts. Humans and much later combustion engines and industrialization have been on this planet for the tiniest fraction of the earths existence. It's warmed and cooled 100s, maybe 1000s of times before us and will continue to do so. Anyone trying to say we have any significant impact on the climate is either a tree hugging nutcase, an academic begging for grant money, or a politician looking for another way to tax us to death.

Recommendations? I have an 870 express 12ga that I bought new 20 years ago, but I don't have any special attachment to Remington.
re: Outdoor projector
Posted by TideJoe on 7/10/17 at 2:06 am
I've spent a lot of time researching this but haven't taken the plunge yet. I had settled on a BenQ or Epson projector. Anything 2000-3000 lumens will do a good job as long as the sun isn't beaming right on your projector screen.
Where it started getting muddy for me was the audio. You can buy a $400 sound bar or spend several thousand and complicate the shite out of it.
I'll eventually take the plunge but the wife has me remodeling bathrooms now (tearing them down to the studs).
This guy has nice projector screen kits.

He'll be fine during the procedure. The tough part is when you get them home. He's supposed to consume lots of liquids (water, Gatorade, juice) and eat plenty (ice cream, yogurt, anything soft) but he won't want too. If you can follow the doctors instructions you'll be fine, if not it's not going to be fun.
