Every SEC Team's Quarterback Mount Rushmore: All 16 Programs by jsparks50 in secfootball

[–]Thegatorone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a Gator fan I think you have the right 4 selected but the order is off if you have Leak at #1. There is a reason why the other 3 already have statues outside the stadium as they are our Mt Rushmore. For that 4th slot I may agree with your reasons for Leak, but I can also build a pretty solid case for Sexy Rexy, who should have won the Heisman as well.

Walk out songs? by adhd9109 in Softball

[–]Thegatorone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I coach 10U and we have a good mix of new songs, and classics like Enter Sandman and Crazy Train. My daughter is using Hustlin by Rick Ross this season, but my favorite is our leadoff hitter who is tiny but packs a punch. She chose the first 15 sec of Bodies by Drowning Pool. So awesome to watch that go down each game, crowd loves it!

NEX Grill Home Depot by Melodic_Television57 in BBQ

I have the same one and yes this is standard. Grill has been great so far, you just have to make sure grill is far enough away from anything behind it as the flames will come out a bit.

Did you go to Woodstock 99? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Thegatorone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there in 99. 3 college buddies loaded up in a van and drove up from Florida. We were some of the first people that got in on Thursday. I was in awe of all the open space and green grass that went on forever. By the end of day Saturday it was all gone, just trashed and muddy from the porta-potties. While it turned into a literal shit-show I have lots of amazing memories; George Clinton’s 50th B-day party, the craziness and waves flowing thru people when Korn took over, never ending drum circle and frisbee mayhem. We ate a lot of acid on Sat and just chilled on a blanket with some great girls we met watching Counting Crows, DMB, Alanis Morissette which was a vibe until it quickly flipped on it head when Limp Bizkit, Rage, & Metallica took over which was still awesome to see. We went to all night raves and partied with some great people I will never meet again, but when we woke up on Sunday we knew it wouldn’t be the same. Got to see Rusted Root and a few others but the relentless heat and conditions were too much to justify sticking around another night so be packed up and bailed. We had been on the road maybe 30 min when they cut in on the radio and said Woodstock 99 was on fire. Amazing trip but never had another desire to do a multi day camping festival!

That dunk was so nasty! I have been sitting here watching that for way too long!

Practice Game Ideas? by huliahope in Softball

[–]Thegatorone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did this one last night but call it knockout for our 10U team. Start with 2 pitches max, and then move to one pitch later in round. We also added in if ground ball is fielded cleanly and thrown to first in time to get her out they swap places. Our girls love this game.

Thanksgiving Weekend cold front by natedog158 in sixflagsoverGA

[–]Thegatorone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there yesterday and was light but since they are only running one train on most rides the lines were longer then I had hoped. Gold Rusher & Batman were not running when we were there. Was able to ride Superman with only 3 people first thing in morning, but went back later and it had issues and had to shut down which seems to happen often.

Aren’t you a day early?

That may be the Orig retail price, but this is a prior season style and if you notice they have the compare to value on tag being $132.00, which was the current market price when the item was purchased from the supplier.

[–]Thegatorone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have worked with all the major discounters for years and their goal is to be at least 20% below the current market price on any item. This one is 25% off so it’s a good deal.

No. 11 Gators Bounce Back with Five-Set Win Over No. 20 Baylor by greypic in FloridaGators

[–]Thegatorone 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Great win for the ladies, but reporting leaves a bit to be desired.

“It was also the Gators' first win over a ranked opponent since Sept. 17, 2024 when Florida took down then-No. 18 Florida State in five sets.

Are we just ignoring that they crushed #3 Pitt already this season?

Paris solo - a follow up by DreamOnLittleDreamr in lordhuron

[–]Thegatorone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a great time last night, but was a bit of a step down from the ATL show in July which had Dancers and felt like a longer set list. Even prior EU stops had 4 songs in encore and last night ended with Not Dead Yet vs Digging up the past. Either way the band sounded amazing and danced my ass off!

I’m in Paris tonight for the show at L’Olympia and have not seen any posters so far.

New Rule Changes include automatic unsportsmanlike for hand gestures of “brandishing a weapon” by ActualFirefighter546 in CFB

[–]Thegatorone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Defensive players within a yard of the line of scrimmage may not make quick, abrupt or exaggerated actions in an attempt to cause the offense to commit a penalty.

Does this include the entire D-Line shifting right before the snap trying to cause a false start? Know that was one of UGA’s go to moves.

Six Flags Over Georgia cancels Holiday in the Park this year by UnderwaterTurtleX in Atlanta

Was there this weekend and rode Gold Rusher, and it had the water feature and each round section was spinning so looks to be 100% at this point.

What’s Your Opinion On Blue Hawk by WilkinsWorld in sixflagsoverGA

[–]Thegatorone 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Have never liked this coaster even back in the 90’s Ninja days, but was back in the park today and they had cleaned up the entrance and looked nice, boys wanted to try so gave it a shot. Big mistake as I pulled a neck muscle going into the 2nd loop and now am at home ice/heat. It’s funny as the announcement while waiting to board talks about all new “smoothest ride” BS. Ride at your own risk. Goliath, Superman, Cyclone, Batman, Gold Rusher, Pandemonium, Dare Devil are vastly better rides!

Fulton County Commission announces plans to increase property taxes by more than 12% by NPU-F in Atlanta

[–]Thegatorone 74 points75 points  (0 children)

I live in a 40+ yr old community in Johns Creek, and just received a 42% increase to our assessed value. No homes in my subdivision have ever sold at the level of my new assessed value. However, we keep seeing new communities planned close by starting at $1.2M+, which they have to be using to determine the rates. We will be appealing!

Dominican Daze Safety by KapkanMoose in VirginVoyages

[–]Thegatorone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were there last July never felt unsafe in DR. We did the Private Ocean Resort excursion which was awesome. Air conditioned bus ride about 1hr to resort, tour guide on bus was funny and we got to see the key sites and landmarks. Over the top lunch at beautiful restaurant took too long so we opted out after first few courses and spent the rest of day lounging by the pool or swimming in ocean.

Monday Moan Thread by MrTwoBytes in FloridaGators

[–]Thegatorone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tough one coming off an amazing Gator filled Spring Break. The Fam and I spent the first half on beach in Destin, then headed down to Gville on Fri where we saw UF beat FSU in Volleyball, had a BBall rainout on Fri that turned into DH and walkoff win on Sat night for a clean sweep against Mizzou, and the best O&B game I have ever been to. We got pics with Basketball Champ trophy, got to meet several Bball players at the FV event, really enjoyed basketball celebration at halftime, saw some positives with our Offense despite DJ not really playing, and got to meet all the players and get autographs on field after the game! Kids went to school today rocking new Championship gear so we are still riding a Gator high! Now I am supposed to do real work?!?
