Those do not look like 5950 hats- did new era lose the contract?

My 7th grade football team endorses this football fashion choice.

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. Carver was a Star Trooper before he made Sergeant?

This story was primed to go in a lot of strange directions with the “blowing,” craigslist, boonies, — this could have been the lost “Deliverance” Charlie Sheen outtakes.

Jesus dude, I didn’t think you could paint a more lonely and disconnected image, and then you come back with round 2. .

Yes indeed, but when you are trying to live out the dream and go to a good school there are not so many options (if you are staying in the midwest) — looked at Brown, Carleton, Northwestern, etc. Eventually ended up at Northwestern so everything worked out fine.

Of course - it was clearly an excellent school, but like I said I was still in “footbaw!” mode at that point in my underdeveloped brain-self.

I was recruited by D3 - I opted to walk-on at a Div 1 school instead.

Yeah that is true - no offense to anyone, but visiting Northfield was eye-opening. I had already spent 18 years living in small rural town, and it just did not compare to being on a huge Big 10 campus. If I remember correctly, the big perk was that you could have kegs in the dorms?!?

This is a bad trip down DIII memory lane when I almost ditched my Big Ten school to transfer and play out my high school football glory days dream. Thank fucking god I didn’t put myself into 6 figures of debt to play for Carleton or the Tommies. Jesus Christ, people need to speak to their kids about when it is time to…

The more you keep saying “Im a lawyer” the less credible you sound. Pro tip: saying stuff like that makes you sound like a newly minted first year associate. It's a rookie move, and you're better than that.

Steve Young kind of fits the narrative as well.

Stepping in is also a good way to get dead. Same reason I do not fuck with any kids in the neighborhood no matter how obnoxious they are acting. It’s sad, but that is where we are at.

He sounds like Michael Jackson.

I had to double take — looks kind of like a pissed off Affleck!

Come on now, you can’t just gloss over the Catbirds years like it was nothing. He won two championships at a time when the CBA was pretty damn entertaining. RIP Flip.

That type of motion is exactly in-line with an ACL tear. Skiers tear ACL’s in a similar manner — you hit a mogul or bad line with your weight going backwards and when you try to right yourself back to “straight up” the force is too great and it can pop the ACL. Bush’s attempt to get upright mid-slide as his cleats…

A friend was on crew for that episode — she got high and made out with the Funk Doctor Spock a few times. This somehow makes me cooler by association.

Yeah, I know, but once jammed it just keeps getting worse and worse! This is why this 40 year old rarely hits the ring any more — muay thai is a young man’s game.

It looks like the mountain had an awkward block on a push kick-you have no idea how painful and fucked up your big toes get from blocks like that. A jammed big toe just screws up everything from kicks to stance and your ability to move around the ring.
