  1. i am hoping the packers lose all remaining games, i am not a jordan love fan and am hoping for a high draft pick next year. Also hoping for a Lafluer and Barry firing at the end of the season.
  2. I pedict a vikligs win even with the vikes top reciever out. The queens by 4 points. No i am not a queens fan,.
  3. yes it was.
  4. well the orioles will need to win 3 in a row which is highly unlikely. The birds pitching from Rodriguez on sunday was unwatchable as he lasted 1 2/3 of an inning. Then later baker comes in and walks 3 straight batters and webb replaces baker and gives up a grand salami. Our relief pitching sucked most of the year even with bautista being healthy the pen was exhausted and exposed and us fans and the coaches know it and texas has exposed how bad the pen is along with the starting pitching which was a crapshoot as all our starters exceeded their innings from last year and that affected them down the stretch. Next year there will be 3 position players whom started with the orioles as drafted rookies whose contracts are up and will want to get paid and the front office has to make some hard decisions on whom to pay, Mountcastle, Hays, Mullins, Santander, santander was a rule 5 pickup. Birds have a lot of AAA talent that needs to come up and play and replace players like mountcastle, hays, mullins, urias, mateo, santander, o,hearn, frazier. The orioles are cheap, the owner john angelos is cheap so we will be the youngest team in the league for the next few years and hopefully the young guys like gunner henderson and adley rutchman along with 4 decent pitchers bradish, rodriguez, kremer and wells can get us to the world series before their rookie contracts are up and they move on to the big spending teams.
  5. Hello brett, everyplace i have lived in the philippines i have tried the freshwater fishing and only knowing of the place you mentioned as a hydroelectric dam which has gone through rebuilds and virtually dried up before i wish you well. If you are serious it would be wise of you to ask some local boys with batanga boats if they could help you catch a fish, any fish for that matter but you must flash the cash and they would probably take you out. Its going to be an experience for you as you drop down your line and watch them drop down 50 yards of faded out nylon rope with a narley old hook and a piece of wood for a reel. I have witnessed the most horriffic use of the river systems, creeks, channels, and ponds. In the low lying urban areas the rivers are stagnant and carry a film of oil sheen because thats where any good person dumps their oil, hundreds and thousands of smoke belching jeepneys, trikes and motorbikes just waiting to deposit their old blood from their oil pans into the river, but wait, you may be lucky to hook an enormous diaper, loaded of course to at least make it a fight. The poorest of the poor live along the river, this is where they bath, wash there clothes and emty their garbage all the while waiting for the next storm to come by and wash it all out to sea. To witness clean water which i have you must go out into the mountains and hike up to be where no one, at least very few have dared to build a homestead well away from sea level dwellers. Just one heavy rain or worse a tropical depression will swell the clean beautiful river and take out everything in its path from top to bottom. I used to gold mine in the philippines with the locals so i have seen beautiful water but never fished it but did witness the locals catching skinny catfish. There are many man made ponds here and there and what you will catch in them with a piece of string and hook are talpia the size of your hand if lucky and these ponds are choked with summerged weeds thick enough to walk on. Have fun and post pics.
  6. Robert Saleh on Aaron Rodgers: “It’s not good” Zach Wilson, the second pick in the 2021 draft, was supposed to sit and learn for a year or two. His time on ice didn’t last very long at all. With Aaron Rodgers believed to have an Achilles tendon injury that coach Robert Saleh called “not good,” Wilson becomes the starter in New York, again. Saleh told reporters after the 19-16 overtime win over the Bills that Wilson will be “the guy” moving forward. Wilson doesn’t need a mentor. He’ll have Rodgers, who presumably will be around the team and fully engaged in the effort to will the Jets to success. Rodgers can continue his effort to draw greatness out of Wilson.
  7. surprised i was able to graduate from "high" school
  8. I didnt watch the game last night, I had no interest in it even as a packer fan since the 60"s i did not care if lions won. I am not expecting much out of the packers for the first half of the season untill Love can get it going with all the new moving parts and maybe he doesnt. That is fine with me because we then will get to draft higher and packers also gets the Jets # 1 pick if Aron rodgers plays 65% of the season for the jets. To top it off I am still in baseball mode hoping for the orioles to win the division and do something great in the playoffs so the packers are my mistress untill orioles finish their nice run.
  9. Gooddell wouldnt let that happen.
  10. wife doing some lazy bank fishing
  11. Is nobody worried about what the effects are to your throat and lungs? Remember when in high school the rumor was that paraquat was sprayed on the plants.
  12. The new MLB base path so that everyone is now on the same page. He was ruled to be *in* the baseline, Gunner missed the tag and then threw to first base where that runner was ruled safe which he was.
  13. I bank fish river dams, I used to bank fish only lakes but access was limited even with waders i pushed the limits but the limits won. The river dams now provide me with a box of chocolates type of fishing experience i never imagined. I have caught in the rivers i fish, muskie, pike, smallies, largies, walleyes, white bass, catfish, carp, sheaphead, golden eye, buffalo fish, rock bass, crappie, and sunfish. My friend has a boat with live scope and he went out last week in the heat towing his boat 240 miles round trip and caught 2 walleye on a lake. I went out yesterday in the heat to a dam and caught 4 walleye, a big fighting carp, a handfull of small brownies and some good fightin catfish. I had a blast.
  14. I dated alot, I learned as i grew older, it took me 53 years to find the right woman.
  15. For me it was many things, I told a gf while laying in bed that i usually date skinny girls, another gf i was waiting on to get ready to go out fishing with at her sisters cabin on her boat, i called out to "hurry up lard %%%" and she kicked me out of her house she was so mad and so i didnt get to go fishing. Another gf i told her she smelled bad while we were driving in my truck because of her smoking, we went home and she showered and we split up a few months later. Another gf told me she was never going to be skinny and i replied back " I know." Another gf i dated i told her while we were drunk at a bar, "you arnt the prettiest girl but you are super fun to hang out with". Another gf i dated wanted to get married, she was mexican spanish and didnt speak much english and i told her " I cant understand anything you say to me" Anther girl i dated i told her before we went out to "bring money" Another gf i dated, when i dropped her off and walked her to her door she asked me if i would like to come in? I said to her " I"d rather not" the look on her face was priceless.
  16. I was a pot head in high school, joined the military in 1980 and everyone i was stationed with in Jacksonville naval air station was smoking pot. So as a dumb %%% i smoked also. On thanksgiving day in 1980 i was at a petty officer 1st class e-6 house and he gave me his car keys to go to base and pick up some more beer. Well they had a car search entering the gates that day and they pulld me over and searched his car and unknwn to me he had a joint in the ashtray and so i got busted for it and went to captains mass. I never ratted out the e-6 whose car it was. The NCIS tried hard to get me to give up whose joint it was but i held firm. My career as a Seabee went well after that, the bust woke me up and i proved to myself and my command i was a very productive and motivated individual. In 1980 and there after the military started doing random drug testing and many of my close friends got busted. My pot smoking days ended in florida.
  17. Orioles rally past Rockies for 81st win, Cano gets the save.
  18. Félix Bautista will go to IL with UCL injury
  19. DL Hall is on his way to Baltimore as reinforcement for the bullpen, sources tell ARBT. Hall only appeared in one game for the Orioles in April, but since returning to AAA Norfolk from Florida has found his groove out of the bullpen.
