Re: Financial Crisis

I lost my job. I was a GM for Red Lion Hotels and was laid off when they decided to consolidate the management of several hotels in the region. I hadn't been with the company a really long time and this was my first GM gig. In retrospect, I wish I hadn't taken the job because I was working for a goo...

Re: Anyone follow iAA playoffs?

It will be a good game and I will be there. I have been doing some scouting of Texas State and it looks like they have some really good athletes.

Re: i don't pick brackets anymore: but South Alabama

PSU handed Montana their second or third worst home loss of all time at the end of the season. Something like 106-58. It was absofuckinglutely brutal.

I am very impressed with them this year and will be pulling hard for the BSC champs to rep us well in the dance. Go Viks!

squeal of the pig will float in the air? I don't think there is a consensus on the meaning of that line. I always took it to mean that the Grizzly devoured the opponent while he was carrying the ball (pigskin) and the squeal had something to do with the ball and/or the opponent in the bear's stomach.
