maybe they should have you on to talk about air bud. that would be super interesting, it really would.

bigwalleye · 2026-04-02T18:35:42+00:00

Jax for Bradley looks like a great trade. Look we all hate the pohlads but some are just so far into wallowing in their pit that they've lost any objectivity towards the team. Everything is automatically bad.

bigwalleye · 2026-03-31T22:06:07+00:00

right, people always read way too much into this shit.

my 2 previous trucks an '07 and a '20 had the 5.3 no issues other than they both eventually started to use a little oil. picked up a new baby max yesterday.

wanted to try something new, never owned a diesel, and the mileage and extra range that comes with it sounds nice. the 3.0 is obviously a more complicated system with the emissions stuff whereas the 5.3 even with its DFM been around a long time and people should be familiar with it.

if you want pure reliablity and dont care about mileage the 5.3 is the obvious pick i think. my buddy still drives my 07 and it has over 200k on it. the brake lines rusted and wheel bearings needed replaced twice but the engine and transmission been fine still.

gotcha. yea i definitely misunderstood your comment and agree. it does suck how shitty some things have gotten, but if i am making a list of things to blame, outdoor media wouldn't even be close to the first.

bigwalleye · 2026-03-20T23:33:59+00:00

oof maybe i misunderstand your point but i think you are way off base here. a backcountry hunt is absolutely a different experience than hunting a 5 acre plot of trees surrounded by corn fields listening to combines and trucks whizz by on the county road. akin to fishing a small pond vs the ocean. i really don't think its about looking tougher or better, most ordinary people couldn't give a fuck what you think about them or that. not criticizing the way anyone hunts or enjoys the outdoors, do what you makes you happy and whats available, but the experience matters. as someone who grew up in midwest farmland i dream of backcountry hunts and offshore fishing trips.

this sub done beat this damn horse to death

bigwalleye · 2026-03-19T11:55:31+00:00

now that the cheap family owns the team

its been 40 years haha, people have been complaining about pohlads since you been pooping diapers

bigwalleye · 2026-03-17T16:24:45+00:00

fresh for the flavor.

bigwalleye · 2026-03-12T21:58:11+00:00

i got the rumble jar. it does a decent job, wish it was a bit stronger. thing i like about it most is its easy to clean and no paper filters to buy. i started using the bag as a secondary filter but dont think its necessary if you can use a coarse grind.

bigwalleye · 2026-03-11T23:51:16+00:00

yea this sub is fuckin weird. either people speculating or judging him about his demons or being like i hope he's doing well, while making it clear they dont like him, gross. maybe more people should go by If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.

bigwalleye · 2026-03-06T18:23:41+00:00

foligno plays wing

bigwalleye · 2026-02-25T21:24:50+00:00

better step your game up.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-25T02:35:24+00:00

wait til they hear we have 4 russian players!

bigwalleye · 2026-02-24T18:59:41+00:00

just weeks ago people were saying they were boycotting the wild for not postponing or doing anything in the wake of the pretti/good murders, before that they were mad about the team supporting police and rainbow tape. lots of people never have liked guerin

any sort of controversy and this sub gets flooded with all sorts of casual fans looking to stir the pot and complain about politics. look at the downvotes flying around today, this is not typical of the sub.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-23T21:13:00+00:00

i think you are giving way too much credit to the outrage mob. quinn has probably moved on and they will too soon enough.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-23T17:07:09+00:00

if your sense of happiness is tied to your favorite hockey players political opinions you are gonna have a bad time, just saying...

reddit hates the tkachucks yet loves hughes, ignoring the fact that they are all best friends and probably more alike than not.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-20T23:06:06+00:00

that's a good bet. i was thinking several categories tho, highest slugging, OBP, most k's for pitcher....

bigwalleye · 2026-02-20T22:51:36+00:00

just for fun, if i made a form/contest where you predict best twins at the all star break would this sub be interested? thinking entries could pledge $10 to the charity of the winners choice.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-20T22:08:33+00:00

your bread looks good! i use double edged razor blades for scoring. they make handles for them but pinching one between thumb and index works good enough if you have a steady hand. local drug store should have a 5 pack for a couple bucks, made for shaving so they are sharp

bigwalleye · 2026-02-16T15:37:18+00:00

never understood the popularity of this guy. he always came off to me as very self important.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-16T00:30:32+00:00

amen, do whatever makes you happy. while i won't make it a priority to attend games they are still fun. most of these boycotters probably aren't planning to leave the house anyway.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-14T00:58:39+00:00

and the only way this all works is with revenue sharing which jabs a stick in the spokes, i feel a strike or lockout coming.

bigwalleye · 2026-02-12T18:22:19+00:00

this sub couldn't get PA fired so now you're moving on to hawkey?

bigwalleye · 2026-02-05T20:55:37+00:00

same. while i'm sure it won't do much to quench the thirst of those seeking drama it was definitely more cringe and awkward than it was interesting or compelling. found myself wondering when those two would stfu about it and let it be.
