From the disillusionment department: I’m reading a book I got from the library called “Cocaine and Rhinestones,” the author has a podcast by the same name. It’s about George Jones and Tammy Wynette, and as you can gather from the title it’s an uncensored look at their lives. I’m not disillusioned by...

[quote] Fans expect too much from college football players and it ultimately broke the game. They want… 1. Players who are legitimate college students and value education, even though they are signed for their athletic ability. 2. Players who have NFL caliber talent and can produce an exciting, h...
re: RIP: Vic Flick (James Bond Theme guitarist)

Not sure but in the video I posted that is the actual guitar he played the part on, a 1939 Clifford Essex Paragon DeLuxe. It was an acoustic arch top so it might have had acoustic strings on it, it was modified with a D’Armond pickup … I found an an interview with him where he said he put a crushed ...

One of the most iconic bits of guitar string plucking there ever was … he was Jimmy Page’s idol:

If you let bleeding ulcers go long enough and get bad they can mess you up. That’s the only thing that was reported about him and it’s in that time frame. Maybe he will be more specific. Honestly as far as his appearance last night he didn’t look bad for 58. He just had no legs at least as far as be...

The long area in the north end zone at Soldier Field was originally an open pedestrian terrace but they filled it in with seats in the early 1970s when the NFL passed a rule that stadiums have to seat at least 50,000. That particular section of the stadium can be used as a completely separate venue ...

They played football at Fenway Park for decades. Older stadiums aren’t one trick ponies and they have character that places like Jerry World in Dallas can only dream about. ...

I rank him ninth behind Ali, Louis, Holmes, Johnson, Marciano, Foreman, Frazier and Liston and ahead of Lewis.
But I think peak Tyson … and his peak was very short which is why I don’t rank him any higher overall … could beat anyone who ever lived on a given night. ...

People on a boxing board I post at were bitching at Paul for beating up an old man. I made the point there and will also make it here that the old man was a willing participant in the circus and willingly walked into the ring last night. This isn’t all on Paul’s tab. ...

My brother got shingles in his eyes. You don’t want to know how nasty that was. I took the shingles shots. But as I said in my post on the flu shots, I am not about to force anyone else to take them against their will....

I oppose mandatory vaccinations, period, mic drop, discussion closed.
That being said, I have gotten a flu shot every year since 1999, which is when I had a case of flu that literally made me the sickest I have ever been in nearly 70 years on this planet. COVID was nothing compared to that case o...
