It looked like they were using our corners from last year to cover him in the video!

Did they whiff on tackles and get windburn as he went by?

In another "Gawd, I feel so old moment", I remember when this song was new and played on AM radio. Yes young pups, there was no FM radio where I lived. And we had a black-and-white TV with 4 channels. And they went off the air by 1:00 AM.  Oh, the humanity!!!

I was 13-14 before we got a color TV....I was so excited I stayed inside and even watched Soap Operas all afternoon.

All the local AM stations around us went off the air at night or you couldn't pick them up after sundown because they reduced their power so all of us had to change the channel to WLS out of Chicago.

Well...Dad, I'm sure at some point you've thought about it.

Will do!

If true...looks like 'Pants Down' too.
6956  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: This song needs to be in heavy rotation at Neyland during warmups this fall on: June 20, 2013, 02:00:07 EDT
Not my kind of music,   I'm more into the  '40's  '50's

But as one of my memories:   Does any one else remember   Andy Griffiths "What it was was football" ?   

I got the original 45 record of it....I go way back too!
6957  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: On the off chance that someone noticed.. on: June 19, 2013, 03:52:07 EDT
Had a golf buddy go through that same thing not long ago.

Glad you are on the mend!
6958  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: My sweet corn is looking good....carry on***nm on: June 15, 2013, 01:29:27 EDT
Can't wait until the Farmers market gets cooking here....Last year we put up around 200 ears of Illinois Sweet, sweet corn. Some of the best I've ever had and I've had-em all. Prior years we put up Bodacious sweet corn and it was good but not as good as the Illinois sweet IMO.
6959  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: For WWII Aviation buffs - The P-38 is my favorite A/C from WWII (K. Johnson!) on: June 14, 2013, 03:35:51 EDT
My grandfather was a turret gunner in a B-17...til he had enough senority to move to a side gunner.. He told some gruesome stories of what happened to guys who were shot in a turret....usually involved shoveling the man out. He said he was lucky because the first mission he flew after moving positions, the new belly gunner caught a bullet and.....not much was left of him. Guess i liked those the best...and the men who flew in them.

40 miles from me in Halls, Tn. is an old B-17 WWII training base and museum. The base was the largest B-17 training base in America. If you are ever in the area it's worth the visit.

I told 5 of my buddies I was with after the 2001 SECCG cluster....that loss will be the downfall of UT football as we know it. Sadly I was correct. 
6961  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Alaska...the last frontier.... on: June 13, 2013, 11:57:28 EDT
I've been to Alaska twice and loved the place. I've had the pleasure to travel all over the globe thanks to Uncle Sam.  I'd put Alaska in my top 3 favorite places I've been.



6962  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Pats sign Tebow.* on: June 12, 2013, 03:29:24 EDT
Pats have the best 3rd and 4th and one % in the NFL...Don't see them pulling Brady.

Who knows how they will use Tebow.
6963  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Is anyone else feeling it? on: June 06, 2013, 04:07:17 EDT
Dang you Clockwork!!!! You brought tears to my eyes with that reminder. That was on my birthday and what a great birthday it was. When the clock hit 00:00 I hit my wife so hard in the back I knocked her down about 6 rows and then hugged everyone I could find. It took me 2 hours to find her after that.

If CBJ can go 6-6 and get us to a 'Who Cares Bowl'.... then he needs a raise and an extension! JMO
6965  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Gee, Gee is stepping down...... on: June 05, 2013, 03:35:03 EDT
A lot of Catholics in Ohio...he pissed off the wrong group.
6966  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Well, I guess that I am officially an "Old Man" now.... on: May 29, 2013, 03:02:48 EDT
Congrats!!!

I just got back from Birmingham visiting my son, his wife and my 2 grandsons, 7 years old and a 8 month old...

I've got another 7 year old grandson by a daughter and my youngest daughter is due with our first granddaughter in Oct...

Nothing like-em!!!


Congrats again..

Done!
6968  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: For those associated with aviation this is an interesting read on: May 24, 2013, 01:55:40 EDT
Good story....I've seen several shows on the same subject.

I'm an aviation nut...have been all my life. I got to spend several years involved in it in Naval aviation back in the day.
6969  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Big, Big news to break Wednesday! on: May 22, 2013, 06:52:14 EDT
I guess the BIG NEWS is: IRS Lois Lerner pleads the 5th.....but there is nothing to hide! 
6970  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Required viewing on FOX right now... on: May 12, 2013, 06:56:05 EDT
None of my kids played soccer......My only son played football all the way through college and that was back in the mid-90's.

Low and behold his 8 year old son (my grandson) started playing soccer this Spring. I told my son I must have failed him when I was raising him for him to even think of putting his son in that game.
6971  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Texas A&M to have largest football stadium in the SEC... on: May 05, 2013, 09:47:05 EDT
Been a UT fan for 60 years...but have always had A&M as my 2nd favorite. They are taking being in the SEC serious.

I said when they joined the SEC that in 4-5 years they would be a top 3-4-5 team in the league. It may be sooner.
6972  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Anyone used Windows 8 yet? I am ordering a new computer and I keep...... on: May 04, 2013, 11:25:08 EDT
Read an article the other day that said W8 was getting bad reviews. My father in law has been in the computer network field for 50 years...He told me to wait several months until they get the kinks and bugs worked out.

I have 7 now and will keep it.
6973  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Recruitnik Question on: May 01, 2013, 07:52:02 EDT
Butch will have a passing game. Just don't expect it to be very similar to Chaney's. From watching Cincy, he uses more short passing, a lot of screens and outs, and TEs/Rbs a hell of a lot more in the pass game. Not that much deep stuff.



What!!!! No more 50 yard fades on 3rd and 6???
6974  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: The 'possum stopped loving her today.... on: April 27, 2013, 06:21:59 EDT
No bigger fan of old country than me in the 50's 60' 70's...bought about all of the country records back in that day. Couldn't give a hoot about the country of the last 20-25 years.

He lived up to his title because I attended 6 of his concerts over the years but never got to see him

RIP George
