What'd we miss?!?

Well, I see Mac has thrown in the towel. Okie doke. Moving on, this past week the sports world was pretty crazy. You had the blown call in Detroit, no need to go over that since it has been plastered all over the news the past few days. If you missed it, then you are a not alive. Secondly, The World Cup starts in just a few days. The U.S.A will be taking on England at 11:30 on Saturday Morning of June 12. The game is being televised here on the mainland and will be aired on ABC. I invite you all to watch it because our country has some good players so it should be a good match. Third, Just wasn't Ole Miss baseball time. Good year, made the tournament, but just wasn't clicking at the right time. And last, did you see "Jesus Shuttlesworth" last night??? 8, count em, 8 three pointers for a NBA Finals record.



Also, I am just gonna throw this out there and it has nothing to do with his triple/double last night, although that doesn't hurt. But, Rajon Rondo is one of, if not the best point guard in the NBA. Just saying. Since there last trip to the finals when Garnett, Pierce, and Allen carried the team, he has flipped a switch and now he is the one carrying the team. I don't watch much basketball, as a matter of fact , I don't watch it until the playoffs start. You are missing out if you aren't watching these NBA Finals, I tell ya.

I'M OUT BITCHES

I would like to officially tender my resignation as a contributor to this blog. Everyone who reads this blog loves the posts and especially loves posts about people they know, but when you do a little story on them they get all butt hurt and all of a sudden the blog is evil and I have to listen to a bunch of whining. With that being said, this will be my last post. I wish I could say I enjoyed it but that's not my style, so I will just invite you all to suck it.

Peace out,
Mac

THIS IS WHERE THEY ARE SENDING LSU FOR THE REGIONAL... SERIOUSLY?

Does the NCAA really think that LSU fans won't travel to SoCal? Have they ever met LSU fans? This place is going to be overloaded with drunk coonasses. Also, they do not allow you to cook anything outside of the stadium while tailgating. WTF? I guess I just answered my own question, they have never met an LSU fan. No cooking while tailgating... they should have sent Ole Miss there. They could have had the whole thing catered.

Leeroy Jenkins!!

This got brought to my attention about a week ago and I have been contemplating putting this up. It is rather old. I don't play "World of Warcraft" but apparently it is pretty popular. I say, to each his own. If this is your bag, then that's cool. However, Leroy makes it entertaining with his no-holds bar style of attack and colorful presentation. Careful at work, there is some language. You gotta admit, "oh my god, he just ran in" is pretty classic.

Buzz Bin Tuesday!!

We are gonna skip over a track and move right into this one. I think you need it considering it is Tuesday and you are probably recovering from a long Memorial Day weekend. With that being said, thank you to all members of our Armed Forces for what you do and the sacrifice that you make so that we can sit here on the net and goof off with a blog.

Buzz Bin Tuesday!!

The Blog goes Fishing!!!

Well Mac is in town for a little R&R and the Crockett has the day off on Monday so we made the most of it. I called up a friend that has a little piece of land with a little pond on it and he gave us the ok to come on out. We swung by the local wal-mart to grab a few extra worms, spinner baits, hooks, weights and sunscreen. We didn't actually get started till mid afternoon and we were just filling the place out for about the first 30 minutes or so. Mac snagged him a bass, I snagged a log, then snagged a limb trying to drag a spinner underneath a tree on the bank. Mac was working on a backlash at the time so he wasn't paying much attention to what all was going on with me. I was in a heated battle trying to retrieve a $4 spinner bait from the clutches of the branches of a small cypress tree. Well, after a few minutes of thrashing the rod to and fro in an attempt to loosen the lure, the tree won. I guess I just put to much muscle into the last thrust and the Wal-mart special fishing pole snapped somewhere in the middle. I still had one eye left on the pole, so we did a makeshift cane pole type contraption to enable myself to continue fishing. Meanwhile, Mac is killing a worm with all the strikes he is getting on the end of his line. He'd grab one here and there but it only happened when he back lashed the reel into birdnest status. He did a swell job reeling in 5 fish for the day, but this blog supports "Catch and Release", so we let the youngsters back. I didn't fair well at all, as a matter of fact, I reeled in zero. I had some action with my shattered pole and had several strong nibbles and a few good strikes. Some several minutes after my rod snapped Mac decided to see how far he could chunk that lure......well, in his backswing of the cast he hit the side of the roof of the pier and lost control of his fishing pole and 'splash' into the drink the rod and reel went. It was a loner, as Mac has no gear here in town, but like a trooper, he took a swim and retrieved it so he could continue. Ironically, the fishing picked up a bit after Mac took a dip. I guess he 'chummed' the water and got the fish hungry. We continued to battle into the later part of the afternoon, trying to set the hook, trying to snag one out of the large conglomerate of small fish that were in a frenzy for something to eat. We did have a rather exciting moment when a rather large fish took my worm, I set the hook (no joke), and then the line broke. This fish had a bigger mouth than anything else Mac had pulled out but it got away. Then some 10 minutes later, the exact same thing happened to Mac. Had to be the same fish. This fish was a 3-5 pounder, had to be, and it was tough. Now it is really tough because it has two hooks stuck in its lip, hypothetically speaking. All in all, it was a fine day and we were grateful to have the opportunity to enjoy something outdoors for the day. The fish are still safe with us on the water, but hopefully we can change that one day. We do apologize for not having any photos as we took none.
