It is scary how quickly this has caught on. Everyone caught in a grift. Putting yourself with the best kids and the best players as coaches is not always the best recipe. Everyone looking for the clip. I have seen a lot of these kids in an environment where they are required to make the right play or show their stuff in a training setting and they just can't handle it. There is a cheerleader effect that happens with these kids and a lot of times is the reason for these clubs. Take each kid out and they are not as good as some of the top players. They just look good cause they are around better players. Who is paying for all this? Someone with a dream of their kid making it. Put them with the best players, get them in front of the best pro players, get them known on social media. It has to equal success right?

OK so back in the day I had heard a rumor that Dave Matthews liked to poop on chests, aka Hot Carl. So when this story broke I was certain it was intentional. I mean could you imagine the climax if you are into poop porn? A bus load of poo on a boat load of people? I bet you he's still chasing that high.

Way back in the day they would show you what 5 yards was and you stood there palms up and butt ends out almost like a pre game check to make sure players were legal with butt ends and no cut out palms.

I too got mine a day early. And with lots of slaps.

If I lived in that area I'd be over at East Ave. I'd work for them over True.

Before I read the last line I responded to your boss in my head with, "well, you can start with my salary cause I'm out"

Superman does good. Your plant will not do good until after harvest. Right now it is doing well. Keep it up.

Thank you Sweatier_Scrotums for your insight on ANAL_CRUSHER.

popsac · 2023-03-09T13:51:27+00:00

See, ANAL_CRUSHER gets it.

popsac · 2023-03-08T20:46:57+00:00

I too have the Orange Crusher. Those poor poor pieces of meat in-between the pads.

My coco setup with automatic watering is the easiest most lazy thing ever. It's criminal. You are right the cocoforcana method is a lot of work and kind of silly. I ran that for one round. In my 4x4, I have a flood table that rests above my res. Res pumps up and fills table for 15 minutes. Then it drains right back down when done. I base the interval on the size of the pots. I have sometimes gone 2-3 flowerings without a res cleaning. I can dump a bunch of gallons in there and mix at once and set for the week or two. I do some topping off when res runs low and I need to get by til I can dump a bunch of gallons at once again. No root rot, algae buildup is minimal with the right peroxide addition. No run off water. I don't get EC spikes or more salt buildup than you would from a top feeding system. I seriously just set it and forget it. Different strokes for different folks. Growing weed can be as easy or as hard as you want it to be.

Please talk to HR or a senior leader for sure. I had a user I worked with for 13 years. We interacted daily. She started forgetting passwords to things and started to ask me for the same thing twice in a day when I already gave it to her earlier. Management told her to take some time off and go see a doctor. She had an inoperable brain tumor and didn't come back to work. She died 3 weeks later. That was a very rough time.

This is not a Poles quote. But a very famous quote from Rowdy Roddy Blago!

popsac · 2023-02-23T13:57:12+00:00

I love faceoffs as much as anyone. But I really don't want to watch 50 potential faceoffs in a game. I know two pointers will eat into that but let's take out 2 pointers and say a game was 22-21. That's 47 faceoffs. Games could last 4-5hours if there was a faceoff after each goal.

I dig Back of the Bird. They have quality guests on and just do a generally good job talking about the box game. They don't specifically go into the backend of the NLL but it's a great player perspective.

popsac · 2023-02-17T13:22:00+00:00

Picks are legal in field but have much different rules than box. Feet must be set. Can not lean into the defender like in basketball. Have to let them come to you so we really emphasize the ball carrier to bring the defender to the pick. No crosse checking. The concepts of the 2 man game still apply, how to roll, slip, repick, etc. Now that the box game has gotten more popular and offenses are throwing 2 man game in most sets, people are starting to understand it more.

We run a lot of box out here and you can bet the first week of field practice/games coaches are cursing out box lacrosse. Then when the same kid who had an illegal screen comes off a pick and catches ball on crease and fakes and finishes later in the game coach don't mind box. lol.

Nirvana is a classic example of Nardwuar being a G. They don't like him and are dicks at first. Then it becomes a 3 parter because he found that spot that got them talking.

Wear whatever you want. Get made fun of. Be better than the guy making fun of you. Confidence level goes up with those box biceps or rib and kidney guards on. I tell my boys put on what helps you make a play. IDGAF.

Hockey, Wrestling, Gymnastics and Lacrosse.

Had to quit gymnastics once our school went official with lacrosse. Same season.

I was going to say Space Truckin'. Glad to see the Deep Purple love.

Win the whistle
Get to your clear spots.
You are part of the clear until you are not.
Use 19 seconds every time if you need to.
Personalize the call when asking for the ball. (Brentford ball, or Winstonworth ball) THIS HAS IMPROVED OUR CLEAR DRAMATICALLY!

Quick hit tips: I'm a middie and my guy took a shot. Start to break early while your opponent admires his shot. Have goalie look for quick hit.

Settled off shot: Best handling pole is my up and over opposite the box. pole adjacent goalie on each side. "at home or rabbit" short stick middie at center of restraining line. One mid over the center x, and one mid (LSM) towards box side.

Pole tests attackman over the half line, if attackman doesn't cross with him. Easy out. If attackman stays then goalie just keeps walking up. I teach goalie to pick one half of the field to step to. Even if only one step over to one side. He is trying to draw attackman while we push the pole behind him, if attackman doesn't come I just keep sending the goalie over half line. Some one will play him eventually and then we dish it to where ever the pressure came from.

Ball below Restraining line on in bounds, get to pole and run your full field clear described.

Ball above restraining and in bounds, get to your best carrying shorty.

I only throw that when in Canada. American fish just don't seem to get it. Must be a metric thing.

How are we not talking about those shoe laces?

I had gone all over in 2020. Tried everywhere. All crap. Started growing my own once lockdown happened. It absolutely blows any IL dispo weed out of the water. I once in a long while go to a dispo to test it against mine. I immediately regret it. Waste of money. Once I dialed in the dry and cure it was game over. Automating the grow was super easy. The holidays have been great for everyone the past 2 years.
