Speaking of OT, I have to go give my first lecture of summer session to a bunch of doctors and dentists who resent being lectured to by a 30 year old who looks 22 in a t shirt and beat up jeans. I LOVE IT!!!!!!

Loaded Potato Salad -- This stuff is a huge hit, alot of ingredients but worth it.
Boil Several pounds of red potatoes then cool them under cold waterwashing of any excess starch. Add a bundle of spring onions and a couple stalks of celery, and some flat leaf parsley finely chopped. Add a couple tablespoons of vegetable and lemon juice. Mix up a little bit. Add 3-4 boiled eggs, as much bacon as humanly possible (probably a whole pack of the thick cut bacon will do). Finally add a cup or 3 of mayo and an entire small container of cajun or grainy mustard (Grey Poupon is good). Everyone loves this potato salad, I kind of robbed it off the web and adjusted. Hope you enjoy..

This tailgate has to happen this year!!!!!

I am only about 206, but I can eat like I am 320. I have a jar of bacon grease in my fridge that is the start of every one of my favorite meals. In fact, the only reason left for me to continue to go to the gym and play sports is so that I CAN EAT!!!!!

Im at basically every home game so im down, may not be able to stay long (i've usually got a ton of shit going on pregame) but i'd at least make an appearance.

Yeah i come from a long line of Big Men from both my mom and dads family. I've got a couple of Great Grandfathers that were 6'10" plus and 340-350 i would assume. I was 6'3or4" 240 in 9th grade, kept in shape with sports in HS, got up to about 260 after HS, and have steadilly gained weight since the old lady got pregnant(4 years ago). I still play ball quite a bit and do some hikes, but im far from athletic. I actually watch what i eat nowadays but im not the type of guy to diet or do tons of cardio <----at least as long as it isnt effecting my health.

Damn oklahoma just had a player die....Wtf is going on?

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

I saw that, this shit is becoming too common.

1) Hate to hear of any person, especially a young person losing their life.

2)Anyone know what happened to the kid from Oklahoma?

I always hate speculating on this. One of the Oklahoma guys mentioned that he had a history of pain killer abuse, though.

That being said, in the past 2 weeks, we have had 2 CFB players and one young NHL player die. Freaky.

 

[hunzworth]

0T- we've talked about a lot of shit in the "official Off-Topic VT Thread" today.

also 0t: good to see sparks checking in-i thought we had lost him

when does the next list of disney invites go out? and whatever happened to the first list of invitee's?

What makes it worse IMO is the fact that these guys are surrounded with the bext doctors, trainer's, psychiatrist, etc, why arent these guys being monitored for things like this? especially if there is a history there.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Agreed....

As for recruiting, well, we are trying, ha ha!!

46-that your pit in your profile?

 

[Chrish1023]

interesting little discussion on paying players. i'm assuming that this is a good thing since SEC schools do it anyways and it would help to even the playing field..

Power brokers discuss paying NCAA athletes - ESPN

Yeah i used to have 3. Im down to 1 now (with my sons energy, i dont have the patience for the energy of 3 pits) They are great dogs, i really hate the bad publicity they get. In hindsight i also hate people who are bad pbt owners.

Both of these are so true. I am definitely an ambassador with mine. I walk them everywhere, run with them and take them places with me. I always have time to confront the asshole who calls them out as well.

Here are pictures of mine:

Luke (pitbull/greyhound mix)

Rosie (pitbull) She is only like 35 pounds and spent her first seven months on the streets as a stray. She is a badass.
