Texas A&M doesn't want Seahawks using "12th Man"

12th Man

KR thinks that is kind of like the OAC board claiming ownership of the terms "Monkey Stomp," "Friendosaurus," or "karma grab ass."  It just wouldn't be right.

Hey boys!
Good to see everyone survived the field trip and made it home safely. Or did they? Any empty chairs at the LL breakfast table this morning?
Let's do it again soon. I'll line up a curling rink and show you guys some real fun. It's the last hope for old, out of shape white guys to win an olympic medal. I'm thinking of hopping on the olympic team myself in 20 or so years. Only thing different with the Olympics is they're not drinking beer while they play. Not sure if I could handle that part.

Strange story....below the Union football offensive locker room is a full fledged Curling Rink!!!  A couple of times we would drink a keg of Genny Cream Ale and sneak a couple of bottles of Flieshmann's Whiskey in and play.....even drunk off your ass that sport is BRUTALLY boring.  The game usually spiraled into the drunkest guy having to stand still in the middle of the circle facing the opposite wall......the rest of the group would fire those slidey things at his legs at about 142 mph.......good times.......good times....

the bad news: corporate big dogs have been in the plant the last 2 days, Gro's "to do" list is expanding by the hour.

the good news: free meal count is up to 4 (2 lunches, 2 dinners)

Good story. And here I thought we had a corner on the curling market. Is the rink still there?

The curling rink at Union was removed a few years ago when the building was renovated.

The former curling rink space now contains the football team's locker room.

Doesn't look very conducive to a Bonspiel.

Wow, LLPP, Inc. seems to be rebounding very slowly from yesterday......

Union89 will therefor share an interesting story from way back in 1988.....gather round all....gather round...

Back in '88 the Delta Upsilon Fraternity was having our annual "Winter Formal".  U89's date was a local Shocktown girl...U89 planned to wear a pair of slacks and a sport coat...Shocktown girl said, "I have a friend who works at a formal shop who will rent you a tux VERY cheap...U89 figured, "what the heck...I'll go to the formal 'Pimp Style'.  U89 rents the tux and has a wild and drunken Formal....U89 also neglects to return the tux and throws it in the corner of his apartment bedroom on Huron Ave.  Days, weeks & months go by with the tux still in a ball in the corner with assorted other threads which have fallen out of favor.  Long story short, the following summer, U89 is in full pads during double sessions out on the turf.  Suddenly, a Shocktown police cruiser pulls up to the field and calls over one of the assistant coaches.  The coach points the cops down to the offensive line area of practice.  Cops stroll down to us and ask to speak with Coach Chuck Priore (offensive line coach and o-coordinator who just left Trinity for Stony Brook)....Coach speaks with the cops for about 5 minutes and says, "Ford, get over here".....oh snap!!!!U89's mind is racing, wondering which inappropriate step the cops want to 'talk' to him about.....Shocktowns finest explain to U89 in front of Priore that he is U89's formal dates dad and the formal shop wants the tux back!!  Chuck Priore finds the situation funny and tells U89 that he has to run to his apartment, give the cops the tux, and run back to practice!!  U89 had no choice but to run through campus and through Shocktown to his apartment in full pads and 90 degree weather!!!  All this while the cops followed U89 at about 3 mph in the cruiser!!

Fun was had by all.....except Union89

Video of Union89's run for the tux must be found.  If properly altered it could be made to appear that Union89 is running from the cops.  Knightstalker thinks this could be a great movie.

+K to everyone for Union89's story.

Garnets visible Karma is getting too high, I smote him but have to wait 18 hours.  Add to the supersecret Karma for Garnet.

Great story U89!!!

Is Regulator the ONLY one wondering what transpired between SHR (SHockville Hood Rat) and U89 to warrant an appearance by the 50 in the middle of football practice???

You know SHR was behind the whole thing....Reg wants to know WHY??

+1k

RE: Shocktown cops

Lucky for 'Gro growing up he had 3-4 friends who's dads were cops. They were good cops too, a little unnecessary force charge here and there but nothing like the "new school" cops that forced the FBI to step in and run the department in the late 90's. Those guys thought they were denzel in "training day". A few Sch'dy 50 now wear orange suits ya know what i'm sayin?

Yo reg... is that a cheez-it box? DUCK!!

Wow, it looks like story time today.  Well i have one that just surfaced today.  Let's see if anyone can relate...

You ever start dating a girl, after you dated another girl for a while, and maybe a good movie comes out on video, and you're like 'I saw that at the movies!' and the new girl is like 'Oh with who?' and you scramble to make up a friend's name?  Well let's picture that feeling by about 700, and then relive it all over again, like LD11 did this morning...

Let's jump in the way back machine and warp, Mario Brother's Style, into November of 2003.  LD11 is with his girl of 4 years from college.  We'll call her 'Old Girl Friend', or OGF.  Doing the Long Distance thing.  Big trip to Orlando in the works.  LD11 breaks up with OGF in Orlando.  Now don't get me wrong, LD11 broke up with her on day 2 of 9, but he got mad play for the last 7 days, like she was trying to win me back.  It was insane.  She almost won me over just because of the effort....

Anyway, LD11 arrives home, alone, and within weeks has a new girl.  Now said new girl had creeped in LD11's business for a few months prior to said breakup.  LD11 lived in the basement of his apartment at the time, and New Girl(NG), lived next door, in a connected house, and she used to sneak over through the basement.  She waslike Harriet Tubman carrying the tourch through the underground railroad, only every night!  And guys, you all know, when you get play every night, and the girl stays over, you are asking for trouble.  So LD11 found himself immediately in another relationship...

Zoom to February 2004, a mere 3 months later, LD11 has been asked to a conference in where else?...Orlando.  So LD11 offers NG a vacation, she accepts.  The weird thing is, she knew of OGF, she even met her!  She knew I broke up with her in Orlando.  Yet she was cool.  So we went there together, while a distraught LD11 got mad play, yet had to relive the rough week just a few months earlier.

LD11 thought this was all behind him....Until this morning...

6am, LD11 caught a flight to Orlando, this time, carrying nothing but his bags.  WTFF is in Boston, safely, yet complaining cause she wishes she were here with me.  And honestly, LD11 isn't quite sure he can handle that.  NG ended right around the 2004 MLB playoffs, because her old flame who drives a Lexus and had season tickets had shinier shoes than LD11.  Actually, it was the World Series tickets that did it.  And she was from Syracuse???  Not even a fan...

(Side note:  What kind of complete tool bag, in their right mind, would ask a girl that he's not even dating, who isn't a real Red Sox fan, to go to the World Series with him?!!!  other than Jimmy Fallon???  I mean, those tickets were going for $3K on EBay.  that sounds like me and my best boy and 9billion beers, making out with every chick in sight and taking home the fat waitress from PJ Kilroys!!!...Wait, that happened once...Forget it)

So anyway, LD11 strolled through the Orlando airport today rehashing all of these scars that were suffered on his soul, only to think that the bad days may now finally be behind him.  But not before a tear rolled slowly down his inner leg.

Does anyone else understand?  GOD, IF YOU'RE LISTENIN....HELP!!!

Gro would like to point out that on the Chinese calendar this is the year of the DOG. That's good news for LLPP's Lewdogg11 and Holladawg. Congrats guys.
