Because when we actually do provide enough irrefutable evidence to get them to finally admit it, we get to bask in the glory of having triumphed over a barely-developed human.

I mean it makes sense, if as a draftee you’re trying to elevate your position, who better to coach you than a guy with first-hand experience on what type of BS will fool the types of GM’s who have high first round picks.

Charley: Ok, say it with me Kyler - “I’m a 6'5 white QB with a lunch pail attitude and a heart of gold!”

It’s bait. 

Only if you get the ball first. 

Poke in the Eye: yellow card.

My friend was a douchebag sophomore frat bro who talked too much shit about something one night at the bar. Pushing and shoving escalated into punches, and Wayne connected one to my…

I was with you at first on the breastfeeding into childhood. I was on the fence with the leash— my kids never needed it, but if I lived in an urban area and my kid kept running into the road or away from me in crowds, I’d try it.
