What is escapement and how can you tell, from that picture, what kind that watch has?

The escapement is the gears of a mechanical watch from the escape wheel through the balance. They are are all basically the same, in all mechanical watch movements. Some are made with better features and of higher grade material than others, Rolex is obviously on the high end. I won't bore you anymore but short of teeing that Rolex up and taking a whack with a driver Id say it would hold up pretty well.

d) Willy's Ohio State posts.

Listen, Tits, I made exactly 1 Ohio State post on here and the same one on Facebook. The Facebook post was directed at all of the Michigan idiots around here. I know you lived in Michigan (OMG gas station food!) and you are definitely an idiot, but it was not intended for you.

I also posted it on here, because it was the most controversial play in college football this year and I found it interesting.

If you don't want to read it, don't click on it.

No need to be so defensive, we understand that you've got another "favorite" team these days.

-Caught little of the Hamilton/Memphis East game. Really like Shai Alexander, has a little Briscoe in him in terms of the way he moves with the ball, stays low, and uses angles to get to the rim. Need more of those 2year+ type guys to compliment all the obvious 1 and Done.

Leading up to that, watched the E:60 about Dez and Penny with Memphis East. Man, that's one of the better sports/life stories you'll ever see -- anyone else watch? Highly recommend searching and recording that if not, it's pretty incredible.

-Really pumped for this game tomorrow. Think we roll, but UCLA is dope and can't wait to watch Ball/Fox go at it. Leaf is really good, too.

While I could see them posing a challenge, these types of games are going to be REALLY hard for us to lose. We already get so many possessions in a regular game, just makes the margin of error that much bigger.



Lol, God that's gross but whatever works I guess. Stud.


-Hard to think of a better incoming guard class, at least in a long time:

Fultz
Ball
Fox
Smith
Monk

And that's leaving off J. Jackson, who is a likely a guard at the next level. Lots of other guys a notch below as well.


...feel like each of these guys has a legit chance at #1, with maybe Fox the least chance of all of them, which is crazy.

Can't wait until Chad reads about "The Adulting School" in Portland where millennials learn "how to adult". [laughing]

Two hipster teachers in Portland is trying to address just that problem: with “The Adulting School,” a full-service educational institution dedicated to teaching Millennials things like how to open a bank account, how to fix a leaky faucet, how to schedule a doctor’s appointment, and how to julienne a carrot.

The Adulting School, which has attracted a small number of late-20-somethings, held its first session last week, on time management, and, ironically, several of its students wandered in late according to a reporter on the scene. After a few hours of instruction, they were given a break and a cupcake — a reward for being motivated enough to survive an “adulting class” (meta-adulting, if you will).

We havent had a new hire in years that knows how to fill out a tax form. Or how to navigate their benefits paperwork.

Dog had an annual visit for shots and whatnot. Bill came to $350. Christ almighty. This after costing me a couple hundred dollars because we had to re-do the Christmas cards after observing that in the picture we used, he was completely an unapologetically erect. He's getting up there in age so i'll allow it since it could be worse... but he's pushing it.

I need to get more scoop on this wife kidnapped into alleged sex trafficking. I mean i guess it really happens but there really are cartel women just snatching attractive gals in broad daylight? The Cartels are wild, man.

I think Briscoe gets tasked with Ball. What he did to Allen last year only a couple of games into his college career was filthy.

UCLA shoots the hell out of the ball which is scary because they can hang with us just based on that but I think we will give them the hardest looks they have gotten thus far so hopefully we bring them back down to earth. Defensively they are pretty bad and we are really good and getting better so that is where the game will be won along with a stoked Rupp crowd. The pace should be supersonic and if UCLA fails to get back on defense then they could get run. Still nervous as hell though.

Nessler is now on the call for CBS. He will also do football starting next fall with Gary Danielson.

So long Tuesday 9:00 tips on ESPN redass when such and such player for Auburn hits his 4th 3 pointer in a row to take a 5 point lead over UK causing floppy bangs ******* to go apeshit with his Pom Pom & Nessler leading into a commercial break.. " Cal calls a much needed timeout. This place is going haywire and the Cats are in a danger zone, partner. "
