  1. J we are talking about America's Sport here. Passion baby passion.
  2. Sensitivity training may have helped also.
  3. Congrats. I had no idea that you made millions of dollars a year. When will you go on strike to demand more money each year? More drama, imagine how this will affect the unemployment rate? I do not mean the players. Good (service)folks will have no place to go to make a living. Now I guess that is life. I am sure the players will be just fine sitting out a year without pay but the service folks will suffer. I hope that is being taken into consideration.
  4. Yes, I did. It appears, if you read the entire story that even other players also took exception to his statement. His ill advised, off the cuff remark, revealed more about his inner man than the facade he apparently projects for public consumption. " 'The players are getting robbed. They are,' Peterson told Yahoo. 'The owners are making so much money off of us to begin with. I don't know that I want to quote myself on that.' .............................................................. Green Bay Packers running back Ryan Grant took exception to Peterson's comment, writing on Twitter: "Their is unfortunately actually still slavery existing in our world. Literal modern day slavery. That was a very misinformed statement." Added Grant: "But I understand what point he was trying to make. I just feel like he should have been advised a little differently." Saints fullback Heath Evans said he agrees with most of the Twitter responses about Peterson, which have been mostly negative. "We are all blessed to even strap a helmet on in this league!" Evans tweeted." If they aren't satisfied, do something else. It happens in every phase of business, without owners of businesses most would not have jobs. They are owners because they want to make money, in turn we work for them to do the same. If everyone thought this way we would not be the society we are.
  5. Words to live by. Thank You Robert.
  6. I do not wish to be a party to anything illegal. I'm fairly sure it is against the law to play a cello in Kentucky. But, you haven't lived until you've heard Long Mike recite Provencal poetry wearing his Iranian war helmet. He's a mook! RW has connections.
  7. Long Mike will also do poetry readings, Roadwarrior may play the Cello depending upon how many Bud Lights he has. It will be quite the event. No jacket required.
  8. DT6 fish caught= Bass holding at 6 feet maybe?
  9. Same here I could never get a crank to run true.
  10. Mixed reviews. http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Midwest_Hunter_s_Outlet_TGSCOM_Inc
  11. I have, fished around deep weed edges. Give it a try. Also the Baby Bass in a Mann's Minus 1 I have caught my fair share on. Thank your friend.
  12. Ah ha, now that makes sense and it can be done with any manufactures reel that way.
  13. Wayne I never fished an Extreme or Elite just checked them out. I have fished a Premier, Avid and LTB. The sensitivity does increase for these as you move up and weight is reduced. The Extremes and Elites feel like they would be the same, just never have been able to personally justify the additional cost. To be honest the LTB is a sweet rod for the money.
  14. Ah ha, then I guess the same would apply for any reel. Boy that was valuable.
  15. ? Yes this is a bit confusing, I must be having a bad morning or am easily confused.
  16. Lower gear ratio will provide more torque. IPT is more important than gear ratio. More goes into the mechanics for taking up line than just gear ratio. All moving parts are taking into consideration for IPT. Personally for fishing heavy weeds a lower gear ratio could be better to bring the fish out with a bunch of weeds. Conversely a higher gear ratio, increased IPT, could help to pull the fish away from the weeds before it gets buried. It does depend on your reaction time and the sensitivity of your rod and line. You need to find a happy medium that you are comfortable with. Personally a 7:1 is great for open water and taking up line when a bass makes a hard run at the boat. A 6:1 or even a 5:1 will help in heavy weeds to wrench the bass out with weeds attached. Both will work though.
  17. There is something that improves balance even more, next to being young, squats. you do not need a bracelet.
  18. If I see small Shad I will swim a white jig.
  19. http://www.kbb.com/used-cars/dodge/dakota-club-cab/2003/private-party-value/pricing-report?condition=fair&id=349108&equipment=4142273%7ctrue%7c4142295%7ctrue&mileage=69000 This is what I came up with by adding the V8 and 4x4. Based on the description and being a private seller. it might be priced fair. I woulld still be wary about the frame straightening. The R title as others have stated would also make me wary.
  20. Out of curiosity I did the Blue Book Value in my area for the same vehicle. In excellent condition it stated $8300.00. Your link showed over 11K in excellent condition. What you described was a vehicle not in excellent condition. If the frame was straightened properly it should be okay but I have heard horror stories on frame straightening. I once a vehicle totalled by my insurance company due to a bent frame. I did not think the other damage warranted a total loss so I challenged it. The insurance company stated that frame straitening has limited success and would not take responsibility for future claims based on the repair. Maybe an Auto Body guy can tell you more.
  21. I bet it is a publicity stunt. Now that I think of it his hair is a bit like a Beatles hair style, Hum interesting.
  22. Whatever is not covered gets sunscreen. I will keep you in my prayers for a speedy recovery, thanks for reminding us.
  23. Anything you recieve by mail that you did not order is free. They can not collect any money from you if you did not request this, treat it as a gift.
  24. Merlot and Pinot Noir this year.
  25. You will have to become a member, which is a waste of time
