Pete Carroll and I together each threw the football the distance of our age at Century Link Field. He threw it 65 yards, mine was 55 yards. He high fived me for like 5 minutes, the guy has boundless energy.

I've been on a fan forum board for 12+ years, visit it regularly, but have never started a thread there.

Edit: come to think of it I don't think I've started a thread on the boneyard since the early aughts...

I've been given credit for starting a thread, but I didn't start it. It was assigned to me in the OT Archive.

Also. I've had corn meal and I've had a hot dog. To my knowledge I've never had a corn dog.

We can make those all go away with one mouse click - ask Adub.

Not sure if you want to hang your hat on this?!?!?

In 2001, on my 20th wedding anniversary, went to MIDNITE MADNESS with my UCONN friends. My wife stayed home. I Got drunk, and was interviewed by CT NBC TV outside Gampel. My response to the question, “why aren’t you at home spending your 20th anniversary with your wife?” Was “because this is where all the action is” was actually aired on the 11 o’clock news that nite

Now here is the interesting statistic.... I am still married to my first wife.

Sounds about right for 20 years of marriage...

Your parents never gave you milk as a child? I call shenanigans.

My granddaughter is allergic to dairy. She’s only 2, so hoping she’ll grow out it it. Also allergic to eggs and several types of nuts. Poor kid.

Oh, I have shared this view. I usually get two responses.

a) The response that vehemently disagrees. The Drama Mama. Her childbirth was the worst in the history of childbirth.

b) The reasonable mom. She admits the epidural was a godsend and she felt "pressure" but no "pain".

That being said, I realize there's pain and recovery after the birth. I also had a recovery that wasn't nearly as traumatic. I'm referring only here to the "pain of childbirth" when an epidural is in play.

Haha - any woman who denies herself the tools of modern medicine is crazy. It’s not beautiful. It’s torture. Self-inflicted torture. If you’re stuck in an elevator? Okay, then you’re a hero! If you’re doing it to prove you’re a real woman? Eh, I’m pretty confident in my womanhood - I grew that kid. She’s pretty awesome. No one died. I’m good.

I can’t say if it’s painful and mine was a cinch. Considering she almost died... but the recovery was no big deal and I didn’t really take the pain pills they gave me, either.

Be careful with the drama mamas though - they will kick your a——. Also, don’t bring up breastfeeding, vaccines, staying at home, etc.

My girlfriends are awesome but there is a species of us that is just insane. I don’t know how you all deal with us...
 
I don't know how painful childbirth is, but I've seen it and I don't think I'd like it.

Forget the nine months of misery before hand and the two months of misery afterwards, even that one day looks like more than I ever want to tackle.
 
My friends and I started the "bye bye Perno" chant several times during his last regular season game at the HCC vs Cuse in March 1986. Everyone around us kept asking us to do it again and again, and it resonated throughout the half filled building

Obviously, I take credit for bringing Jim Calhoun here

Yes, do tell. My buds play in Thursday night 9 hole league up there. I've subbed a couple of times. There are plenty of shenanigans going on but as far as I know no one has received the dreaded "lifetime ban".
