OT: Random thoughts

Haha, just curious. Had extremely brief layover in Charlotte on the way down here and one on the way back today.
 


Just a random video in case you haven't seen. Maybe someone should sign this guy. He's pretty fast and also elusive and seems to be a crowd pleaser.:D OFC
 
You should post the one from Dancing with the stars.

I'm sitting here reading the only active thread it seems and a random thought just went through my head and I just can't wait until basketball season gets here. I guess the best thing I can do is just not read the thread but I love this board so much that I can't help it. OFC

Tonight I was driving behind a 1940's Plymouth. Every time it stopped little red brake lights would come on. Then all of a sudden the driver sticks his left arm out the window and raises it to a square. then realize that he's giving a right turn signal. How cool is that. How many drivers actually know what to do if their turn signal lights are out. I thought to myself that this would be good to post on the random thoughts thread. OFC
 
Remember when Jim Thacker and Bones Mckinney did the "ACC Basketball Game of The Week?" We didnt get to see as much of our Blue Devils on the tube, and I relied on announcers like Ray Reeve and Ad Penfield to bring the games on the family radio in the den....Verga, Vacendak, Reidy, Marin and Lewis....No classier coach than Vic Bubas.. Just a random thought as we prepare to embark on a journey to #6....You youngsters would have enjoyed the Duke teams of the 60s...

Welcome my good friend! Good Times!!

I wonder how our current fan base would react to Bones McKinney and Jim Thacker commentating our games. I wonder if they would like them or totally disdain them. I can't see anyone having nothing but love for Bones. OFC

My dream is to hear Blackledge call one of our football games. He's the best in the business by far.

Danielson would be second choice.

Thacker I will ALWAYS think of as the Voice of ACC BASKETBALL, and Bones as the best analyst...Bones NEVER talked down to the fans, nor was condescending in any respect..

Bones knew the game too! Good player in college and pros, successful coach at Wake, and I saw him accomplish a miracle- leading the Carolina Cougars of the old ABA to a .500 season in their first season!! There was no way NOT to like Horace "Bones" McKinney- warm and folksy aura on air was the same way in person!

This came from a thread on the College Basketball board. A poster started a thread asking for a couple of extra mods. There is also a thread about the Chinese spam going through most boards. I suggested they try to get Mike Irby since the unc boards haven't had any problems. The response to my post is a classic and I thought you guys might enjoy it.

I suggest contacting Mike-Irby-USA who is a mod on the unc free boards tar heel radar, the blitz and out of the blue. Those boards are the only ones I know that haven't been Chinese spammed. He must be doing something right to keep the spam out.

Even the spammers can't stand gary7 so they stay away.
 
Who follows high school football and who do you follow. I follow my alma mater Western Alamance out of Elon, N.C. Right now they are 4-1.
 
This just randomly ran through my mind. Anybody know who Brandon Huffman is. OFC
 
Ate some pistachio nuts tonight and found myself fishing through the empty shells looking for every piece of nut I could find. Anyone else do this. OFC

Played in a golf tournament few years back with Billy Packer. He talked about Jim Thacker and Bones and how it was an accident he was ever on the telecast. He was ask to fill in at the last minute.

I was just wondering if this guy never recorded this song would this board be any different.




 
This random thought just ran through my head. What if all football players wore their hair like Colin Kaepernick would it eliminate concussions ? OFC
 
It was strange to me when I was young to want to stay up late at night, and never want to get up in the morning. Now that I'm older, it's the opposite. Things will never quite be as fun.
 
Random thought, I feel bad for schools like St. Francis or any other major university that may have had the initials STFU.

Why is it called a technical foul? Is there some sort of mechanical malfunction required?
