I have an old set of Porter Cable cordless tools that are OK, but definitely not high end. I use the drill/driver and the reciprocating saw the most. They are definitely in need of replacement. I'm kind of stuck on getting Milwaukee but you can't go wrong with DeWalt. One thing I haven't seen...

Stuff that would never happen today. When I was 13 my dad hired me to work in back of his electrical company during the summer break. Loading trucks in the morning, sorting and organizing parts in the warehouse all day, sweeping, cleaning, unloading trucks when they came back in the afternoon...

Not for nothing, but the statistics on that poll are super messed up. Maybe because multiple votes are allowed (which doesn't make sense - there can only be one best - who chose more than 1?). It says total votes are 183, but I count 216 (at this time). 99: 8% 04: 16% 09: 0% 11: 2% 14: 2% 23...

For any young ones here (early to mid 20s), find a City, County, Federal job that has a pension. Guaranteed money forever is so much less stressful than 401ks or savings in index funds, etc. And you can still put extra into those other things or deferred comp. Seriously, find a place that...

This question just breaks my brain. First you have to consider different eras where some players stuck around for a while, Rip would have been one and done or two and done in the current era, Same with Emeka and I'm sure a few others. There was no portal for JC to add a key piece or two. And...

My best friend who is a Wisconsin fan (grew up there) said to me mid season, "You have that guy who has the best looking shot in college since Ray Allen."

FIFY

Correct - Pomona Pitzer Sagehens. We were terrible at sports so our motto was "The Sagehens, the only animal that gives up when cornered." You have mad DIII sports trivia skillz.

My fun Pop tidbit. He was the basketball coach for my DIII school while I was a student there in the mid 80s. Trivia question - without looking it up, who can name the schools (two colleges combined for their athletics) and or the mascot?

Come on - that's gotta be someone's fantasy region, Duke, UConn, Arizona and Michigan State as the top four with UNC, Texas Tech, Alabama and Maryland sprinkled it.

Richard!

If you think you could pick a better 5 than Calhoun, you would be wrong. Why try?

While I get that the boneyard has to over think and over speculate on things and add in the people who have to use words like scared or not all in, the situation here is pretty clear. Based on a couple players coming back, a couple of recruits who committed after him and a couple of veteran...

Although I really want to pile on for this one, let's keep it to Demary going forward.

I'll bet my home that he is taller than 5 foot 6 and 1/2 inches.
