I agree. I love me some pineapple on pizza, regardless of the other toppings.

Do we have enough pull at Carver that we could petition ao as a vendor, preferably next to the Carver Cones? Would be a nightmare for the clean up crew but we would be happy tummy's, happy fans.
Man, I really was gonna go on a wonderful race baiting tangent about me cooking for “the man” at Carver. But then I thought…. That would be pretty cool. Maybe they’ll even let me sing the National Anthem?

Ya know, I was thinking this weekend about you guys! I remember when Gabe was being recruited and I hid on here watching the show unfold. Then I slowly became a part of this board, immersing myself in what I would soon realize was pure familial dysfunction. I disappeared this season because to be honest, it was hard being around as the dad of a kid dealing with a lot of issues. And that was being around WRESTLING not just this board. How hard was it? The only match I saw in Cleveland was his first, that he lost. No, my time was spent in the car, sitting in the parking garage around the corner. What was I doing? I was shopping on Amazon and praying. Hell, the ONLY way I knew the outcome was my phone would blow up with a lot you guys and others telling me the scores. Actually took a pic after each match. One day, I may share them. 🤣. I was a hot mess.

Having the guys over this weekend reminded me how much I love being there for them, but more so how much I love this sport. I loved watching these men just be kids and have fun stuffing their faces, hanging out with their mat brothers.

And I said all that to say this:

Suck it! This was probably one of my BEST Low Country Boils. I hope the picture make you sorry sob’s mouth water. I’m back! Here to annoy as many as possible and make fun of some of the deranged logic some of you people post.

and yes, I STILL mean YOU PEOPLE.

It’s just Wrestling!

Kid has shown a ton of heart as a Hawkeye. So happy for him that he will be wrestling at a weight more his normal size this year. Think he will have a great year. Welcome back to the Cesspool. Hope Gabe kicks *** this year.

No, we purposely haven’t killed any quail in years, but many, many rooster and turkey breasts… Smoked about 20 orders of gobbler tenders this spring at camp with this exact recipe. So damn good. The guys can’t wait for it every year.

The quail are definitely making a comeback though so hopefully will be on the menu in the next few years.

Just have to talk about "my" quail...:)

I have continually tweaked the habitat on my farms through the years, often with quail specifically in mind.

I am super happy to report that I have good numbers of quail these days and if even a fraction of them nest successfully this year, and there is no reason why they shouldn't, this fall should resemble the good ol' days.

I love seeing and hearing them. Oh, great to see you posting again Phil!

Oh my bad….. there was no “L”.
Silly me…..

Face it, you guys missed the ONLY member that has the right to make fun of black and white people at the same time. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

life as an OREO COOKIE is

man, the juice those things absorb is CRAZY
  • 0:00 → potatoes in
  • +10 min → sausage in
  • +5 min → corn in
  • +5 min → crab legs in
  • +3 min → crawfish in
  • +2–3 min → shrimp in
  • heat OFF
  • eggs soak with everything
Perfect every time.
For a changeup, throw in some alligator meat near the end. Or for a real Cajun flare, get some Cajun-made nutria sausage. Hungry wrestling team might just be able to help control those coastal marsh destroying rodents).

But be honest, do you like vanilla or chocolate oreos better.
This is so offensive!!! Why can’t they be liked equally? Why does one always have to be picked over another? And then WHY does why “white” Oreo get white filling, but the “black” Oreo is forced to be infused with whiteness from the INSIDE!????? Freaking conspiracy.

After 12 years together finally got the wife (no pics) to like boneless, skinless chicken thighs. One step at a time Gobbs. But definitely going to try this for wings next time.

But, there are the occasional "fend for yourself" nights where I'll have a bone in skin on thigh. Not much better. That crispy skin is unmatched.

Might I suggest Birthday Cake Oreos when the become available, regardless of one's date of origin?

At least there are rainbow sprinkles in white filling.

Let's all be honest. The "black" Oreo sucks.

Double Stuft is the only way to go.

Just got back from New Orleans visiting family. I had corn bread covered in crawfish étouffée, and blackened catfish with crawfish stuffing. I swear I had a chubby while eating and went to sleep with a smile on my face.
Oh drink of choice was Basil Hayden “Toasted” old fashion with a side of coke. I went full send!
