Winner did it in 1:05. That’s a 5:00 pace, and he was chatting with our lead bike the whole time. Also has a 3:59 mile and a 2:13 marathon on his resume. Heading to the Olympic Trials in March.

That stuff just blows my mind. If you put a treadmill under 6 minutes it feels like you're flying, and a tread (speed wise) is easier than running outdoors. Not to mention he's doing it for 2 hours straight.

Friend/Relative: Do you want to hold my baby

Me: No

Friend/Relative: Oh, dont worry it will be fine, you wont hurt him/her.

Me: No, I really have no interest in holding it.

Referring to a baby as an 'it' usually leads to a quick correction as well.

You want to piss off a whole bunch of hens at the same time? Tell them you are "babysitting" your own kid. Holy ****.

When I was alone with our baby for the first time, I posted something like, "Welp, Ava and I both survived me babysitting her on my own for the first time."

Some sort of Bat Signal went up and I was bombarded with replies and private messages informing me that you can't "babysit" your own child.

Most were educational, but several seemed legitimately angry. Crazy *** bitches.

The best use of that is when your wife tells you she’s going out with her friends and you respond like you’re a teenager who’s mom asked you to clean your room. “What? I don’t want to babysit tonight. The game’s on!”

Always goes over well. :sunglasses:

-damn skippy, ucl.

-The sooner everyone realizes nothing really matters...especially their opinions on the banalities of life, that control is an illusion and most "success" is an accident of being born to the right people in the right place at the right time, the better. Happy Holidays!

-had to pass on 2 *generous* invites from my internet friends due to "family stuff" this wkend. Maybe Pti has it right after all.

-middle age is the best, gang.

I don't have much of a sweet tooth, but homemade Christmas treats get me. Secretary makes me a bag of my 2 favorites every year ---> Chocolate covered Snyder's Pretzels & Chocolate covered Ritz/PB sandwiches. :fire: Some fudge in there too, but never had much for that.


Mom makes these things with a rolo between two mini pretzels that's pretty wodie too.

Two of the GOATs, just add peanut butter balls to round out the top three.

Honorable mention to pretzel peppermint bark.

If you're in a pinch and don't have a secretary these do the job. Just scoop the PB out of a jar like an animal.

Peanut butter roll/potato candy is the #1 Christmas candy followed by white chocolate pretzel and peanut bark.

White chocolate is an abomination, except in that configuration at Christmas.

I can only hope there was a bunch of GFY, EAD, DIAF, SMD, type post sent back their way.

My wife makes the melted rolo on a pretzel with an m&m thing, phenomenal. My diet has consisted of 80% sweets and complete garbage the last week, like every December. Our workplace is filled with absolute junk this time of year impossible for me to avoid.

Substitute pecan half for m&m...profit. Mini turtle if you will.

Unrelated but perhaps interesting to my running friends: non profit I preside over had our half marathon this weekend. Winner did it in 1:05. That’s a 5:00 pace, and he was chatting with our lead bike the whole time. Also has a 3:59 mile and a 2:13 marathon on his resume. Heading to the Olympic Trials in March.

Best of all — hardcore Cajun. Lives in a tiny *** swamp town with no stop lights. He’s like a smoking fast Waterboy.

Fu@k yeah, more crazy marathon stories please.

Now that I am a construction laborer/helper, my workplace is inundated with holiday treats from subs and vendors. I like to spurn the Wellness Committee and remind everyone that I’m actually on my wife’s insurance when I go for seconds/thirds. And I always sum it up by giving a Jordan shrug and saying “Bad Boy Life.” I keep things fun for all.

I never knew the potato roll connection on those, always just called them pinwheels. Simpleton.

Marko gave UofL the “edge” at Punter in his Governor’s Cup breakdown.

For a haggard looking, middle-aged loser from Florida with a local sports talk show on University of Louisville athletics for a career he’s probably beating the odds tbh.
To be fair it's been awhile since we've had to really utilize our punter when playing UL.

The SEC/CBS deal comes up for bid in 2020 even though the contract runs through 2022. CBS has been getting an unbelievable deal at $55 million per year.

This guy thinks ABC will offer $300+ million per year for the new contract:


That will increase each schools take by $20 million or more. Gonna be many more new dorms on campus. Will also put the SEC back in front of the B10 for the time being.
