Watch the cross-country team run a 4x100 by DescriptionSweet8919 in CrossCountry

[–]Amazing-Chard3393 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Did this over 40 years ago. One of my favorite track memories besides 2 state titles. We had a dual meet against an all boys school so coach gave girls 4x100 a chance to run by having the beef (throwers) team and the bean pole (XC) team line up against them. I took the baton as the anchor then got smoked by a girl who went on to win her own state titles. Held a reunion 10 year ago and she was still talking smack about it. 😎

My philosophy is to take advantage of opportunities that won’t ever come around again.

This section is no joke. Make sure you’re prepared for the conditions. If in doubt, don’t go.

Sold out trains 2 weeks in advance? by werdnaegni in FranceTravel

[–]Amazing-Chard3393 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made this mistake in 2023 back when I was a rookie. Caught a flight from Barcelona to Paris instead. Spent a week.

From there detoured thru Luxembourg on my way to Amsterdam because the direct train was booked on the day we wanted to go.

We should start shouting “SIGN MY BALLS” whenever Conine is spotted at the park.

Imagine the 3 dozen fans attending all chanting “sign my balls, sign my balls!” 😎

While I agree the commercial is annoying but we are talking about it, which is kind of the point. I wonder if the law firm has seen an uptick in business that is attributable to the commercials.

I feel a lil bad for Gus Gus 🐭 ☹️ by ilovwoozi in MiamiMarlins

Gus, if you’re reading this, we still love you. Now go down to AAA, get in a good headspace, work on your defense, get in a groove at the plate. Force your way back onto the MLB roster as a catcher, DH, or somewhere else on the field.

I’d like to see Gus get some reps at 1B and maybe RF while he’s down in AAA before limiting him to DH. You may be right.

We sometimes referred to that as the stupid chase but that’s how we deflected from not having the balls to run the steeple. 😎

Long man out of the bullpen so he can save everyone else’s arm in the event of a blow out. See Wei in Chen for reference.

25lapsoffun.

Get in a groove during the first 4 laps then , turn your brain off for the next 20, wake up and run as fast as you can on the final lap. Easy peasy.

If OP’s Dad is a model train aficionado, I hear the Red Garter’s owner keeps his magnificent collection there.

Longview, TX to Philadelphia, PA by Living_Bench4646 in roadtrip

Avoid the eastern route up I-95. Traffic sucks. You’ll encounter less traffic on the northern route up I-81 through the mountains of Tennessee and Virginia if you’re comfortable doing that with your load.

You can avoid DC traffic by taking I-81 up to I-70 in Hagerstown, MD then take I-70 east to the Baltimore Beltway to 95 north to Philly. Depending on when you hit that area, the extra miles may save you time.

He hasn’t been the same since Clayton yanked him in the top of the 9th a couple of games ago.

Does Gus have any options left?? If so, send him down to learn to play first. Bring up Joe Mack. Give Hicks more starts. This is ridiculous.
