NFL 2019-2020

@D. B. Doober got a little taste of Dutch Uncle @Bababooey . You were spot on.

Dutch uncle is an informal term for a person who issues frank, harsh or severe comments and criticism to educate, encourage or admonish someone. Thus, a "Dutch uncle" is the reverse of what is normally thought of as avuncular or uncle-like (indulgent and permissive).

I'm in the @shithawk camp re. TB. He was a great quarterback with many stats and wins. I never liked him and I liked him less when he came down here to Tampa Bay. That's a carpet bagger move.
LOL

No he is not. Keep up the good work.

If Lawrence ever gets an offensive line and a solid running back he is worth every dollar.

If the Dolphins do not open their wallet and pay Tua then Mr. White enters the fray.

I don't think Mr. White is on the same level.
Tom Brady is the best quarterback ever. I wish Michael Vick would have won a title.

Hey buzz, the wearing of Helmets and also face guards was always compulsory at minor level and also the under21s, at senior level it was inforced ( guessing10-15 years) lots of players would of suffered from fractured skulls, bleeding of the brain, broken jaws, and the loss of teeth. Hurls are made of Ashwood, was speaking to a friend a while back and he was telling me they might start making them out of bamboo (because of the ash die-back disease) most of the ash trees in Ireland will have to be cut down because of this disease, the ash tree rots from the inside so the longer that goes on the tree will serve no purpose ( it won't even be fit for firewood) even though we import the majority of our ash from Scandinavian countries, its crazy because the ash tree is one of the most common trees in Ireland. Tree surgeons (those who get the contracts to remove them) will make a nice tidy sum out of it.

The sliotar ( it wouldn't be referred to as a ball) though some people do 😀 can not be picked up from the ground directly with your hand, you must use the hurley for that, you can either roll the sliotar on to it or flick it onto the hurl or just lift it onto it using the hurl. When running with the sliotar on the hurley (balanced on it) there is no time limit. That's say you catch the sliotar in the air (which you said is fair game, as it is) 4 steps is all you can take, you can also pass with your hand or even kick it to your team mate. Bent digits- that made me laugh.. Its aproper Hardy fast game it would certainly be our national sport. Kilkenny, above in the video won many titles and were a proper force when Brian coady was at the helm, they have lots of youth in the team at the moment with serious potential so it's only a matter of time before they get back to winning ways (it's always good to have a mix of youth and some senior heads on the side) kilkenny lost last years final to limerick. Limerick have won the All Ireland hurling for the past 4 years in arow, remarkable record (I don't think any team has ever won 5 in a row) they might do that this year, most of there players are 6ft plus and really physical to play against, they eventually break you down. They are a great team. I have watched them several times in the county championships, they beat Clare last Sunday in the munster final which is there 6th county championship win in a row, a powerful side Buzz.
I love the reply and the education, @superx. Now for a bit of American College Football info for you. On Aug. 24 in Dublin @5PM Irish Time the Florida State Seminoles will play the Georgia Tech Yellowjackets for their seasoner opener. Florida State University is a few miles down the road and they are a college team that every true Irishman roots for. ;)

Maybe they will be on the telly and you can do the play by play for your friends who gather for the auspicious event.

Hey buzz, Appreciate the heads up man. I have some friends who will undoubtedly be watching it so it will be good to join the party. Hopefully by that time I will have brushed up on my knowledge more and rules of the game by chatting with you guys.. (that will take some of the guys by surprise 😆)

No worries, @superx, just make up something that sounds reasonable. Delivery is important so speak with authority and maintain a straight face and eye contact with the guys as you explain the intricacies of the play they just witnessed.

what about the benchmade buzz? you ever own one?
No I have not. I have knives but nothing like a Benchmade. When I was working in a nursery I carried a Case Sodbuster. It fit well in my right front pocket of my jeans. It fit next to my wallet.

I met up with two friends for a smoke and some lunch and a couple beers yesterday. Hangar 38 was the spot and a first time there for me. I was thinking fish earlier in the day when I saw this:

Red Fish Bowl Red Fish bowl with cilantro rice, black beans, pico de gallo, and avocado. $14
I did not take any pictures but Mr. Google had a pretty good one.

Dutch uncle, huh? Never heard of that before, that's an interesting phrase. Also didnt know the origin of the term avuncular, or even its meaning really, but learned that too. Good to know, going to have to pull that one out in the future.

U thought Brady's move to Tampa was bush league, Buzz? I thought it was a pretty boss move. I mean, ur right, he hand picked a ready made champion only lacking a QB, but it validated that he could win outside of Belichick's coaching acumen. And lets be real, he wasnt leaving new england for a team on the rise, his timeline wouldnt allow for that, he needed a playoff ready roster for him to step into.

Mike White had a 400yd game with the jets but yeah, if he's ur everyday starter then ur looking at a bottom 10 record for the season.

Hurling is a wild looking sport, it's like a cross of baseball and american football and soccer. Did it predate all those sports? Are most modern sports descendents of gaelic games? I heard the game of golf was invented when someone cut the head off their enemy and it fell into a hole. Was that from Ireland too, or England? Or maybe Im thinking of Middle-earth, from Lord of the Rings.

Ive had more of the pepperoni pizza and ham n cheese hot pockets than i care to remember, Pops. Ur right, those would make good stoner food - easy to cook and greasy/salty enough to satisfy the munchies. Maybe half nuke it then finish it in the air fryer it to get a crispier crust. Dont leave the sleeve on in the air fryer.

Ive noticed some bonus bets available for the Euros 2024. Who is strong this year besides the usual suspects (France, Germany, Spain, etc)? I guess there will always be some upsets.

I had to read it again, almost thought it was FSU vs Notre Dame in Ireland, in which case you know who Superx would be rooting for.
It will be interesting to see how the FSU draftees do in the NFL this season, and also how FSU reloads this year. Im thinking losing as much talent as they did they wont finish 12-0 again but if their recruiting (including the portal) and development are firmly among the elite in college football then maybe they become like OSU or Georgia and 11-12 win seasons are the norm.

Temu sells switchblades, Hawk? And u say it's great quality for like 5% of the price? U think it's the real thing or does bench made make their knives in the USA?

A little pocket folding knife comes in handier than you'd think even if u dont need it on a regular basis, Buzz. And that fish rice beans avocado bowl looks delish, and pretty healthy as well. I probably need to eat more fish. I have been eating more turkey and chicken and laying off the red meat so that's something...

Pops, San Diego came in #9 on the top 10 list of "impossibly unaffordable" cities. Hong Kong, Sydney (Aus) and Vancouver (CA) are top 3, four of the 10 are American cities, all in California (san jose [silicon valley], LA, SF, SD). Im surprised NYC didnt make the list.

this post has to kick off with a pep rally

sorry @buzzmobile but im not a fan of the noles (i have nothing against them thoe, i just like the gators)
/funny story, so i tell my moms friend who lives in gainesville im a fan of the gators
well some how they get this twisted to im a fan of alligators? you ever seen that three wolf moon shirt? i basically have the same thing but with alligators on it
that grilled fish looks awesome and red fish is awesome! the black beans and rice sounds like a nice side and it all looks like its seasoned to perfection
and for $14? that sounds like a bargain, how were the beers?

@shithawk420
why do you want a spring loaded knife in the first place? why not get one of those finger or thumb flippers?
you can deploy them with one hand and they are legal in most states (as long as its under 4")
i like kershaws for edc

@Bababooey
i agree about tom brady winning a super bowl in tompa was a boss move
im not a fan of him but i dont hate the player, but i hate on the game
#f-spanos
so i ended up getting into the hot packets last night, maybe it was just them munchies, but they were actually pretty good
i had one of the pepperoni pizza ones, i dont know if i dident microwave it enough or what but it was cooked, but the crust was not crisp; that is a great idea about finishing it an air fryer
i might have another one later tonight, its my wows! night you know
way to go san diego! #9! but it sounds like this is on a global scale?
california is out of control and it only seems to be getting worse with the costs of energy, food, and housing rising like crazy
but who cares!: f-you poor people!

Is it just me or does DB's thumb nail look disproportionately small compared to the rest of the digit?

I like the Noles' color scheme, cant go wrong with garnet and gold. I also thought bobby bowden was a wholesome person, as far as football coaches go. But if they were playing Notre Dame, i'd have to root for the irish, just cause theyre almost a local school to me.

Hawk likes to live dangerously, but he's smart enough to not carry a switchblade around with him if it's against the law. I wonder if there's any states where it would be legal. Maybe texas?

i dont think anyplace allows spring loaded knives, same with those balisongs
but why would you want one, i can deploy a flipper just as easily with one hand
tx does allow open carry, but i dont think you can have that knife, weird huh?

you like the lesser football, who do you root for baba? who do yuo think could do well this season

Yeah, i can carry around an ar15 in TX legally, but if i carry a switchblade it's a felony. Make it make sense.

College football? Georgia and ohio state and TX. Michigan and alabama would be up there but are breaking in new coaches so not too sure about them. Maybe Oklahoma will be great too. Those would be my top 4, im sure ill be wrong on some of them tho.
