As September Approaches....
I agree, whole heartedly, just get that degree. The more people that chase that paper the fewer who enter the trades. That is why my price keeps going up. Us tradesmen are becoming fewer and fewer, and in direct correlation our rates increase. Never thought I would be so happy that I got thrown outta college. Don't get it twisted though my younger brother just graduated. I have nothing against Anyone getting a college education. It just amuses me how everyone today is so deadset on getting that piece of paper.

Its About Time...
What gives?!?! First I had to work so late that I missed the first three quarters of the game. Then my internet is out when I get home. So I missed the fourth quarter of the game. (Charter Cable of Birmingham wasn't showing the Raiders game.) Then we go and lose to the dang Cardinals. The three positives out of this. 1 its only preseason. (we are always bad in the preseason) 2 the Broncos lost too. 3 the Raider Nation always overcomes. No one can keep the Silver and Black down. RAIDER NATION 4 LIFE

Cardinal the bird. We're playing Arizona tonight. If I get off work at normal time then we are going all out. Otherwise, I'm gonna have to behave myself somewhat. Paint takes awhile to put on and take off. Right now its looking like I'm gonna be working about three to four hours over my "normal" eight. So we shall see. RAIDER NATION 4 LIFE

Its About Time...
I believe I just might be getting to work late on Friday. We play tommorow night at 7pm PDT. Me thinks there is gonna be a party at my house for this momentous occasion. Heck me and my 3yr old son are gonna go all out. Face paint, battle armor, the whole nine yards. The wife will just have to deal. Go cook me up some Cardinal for the party, or I could substitute chicken. Ain't nothing gonna stop us!!!! The Autumn Wind is a Raider big baby!!! RAIDER NATION 4 LIFE

At the current moment he is. Hopefully that doesn't change. The few times I've seen him play I've been impressed. Word is as long as he stays healthy he will be starting. And you are absolutely right about Bush and McFadden. Those two could and will be awesome together. Kinda get a Ronnie/Carnell thing going on. Dang I can't wait for this season to start.

I feel DHB will do well. Look at McFadden everyone was being down on him a few years ago, and he's doing very well now. People need to realize that it takes more than one and sometimes two years before a player in the league reaches his full potential. I think he's gonna have a real good year this year.

Its About Time...
With father Al running things I'm not suprised one bit. That man is quite eccentric, a bit batty even. And as for Miller leaving. That's what happens when you take your players forgranted and don't take care of what you already got. I would be much happier if he hadn't left. Sometimes I think Al just enjoys doing idiotic things like this. Still its just a minor set back. The Silver and Black will be just fine. Gotta keep the faith. RAIDER NATION 4 LIFE

Oh no no no. Don't misconstrue that post. We know we aren't the best right now. We had a five hundred season last year and were celebrating. Heck we went undefeated in our division but flopped in most the rest of our games. The saying amongst the true believers in the Raider Nation is, "You beat us on the field, we'll beat you in the parking lot." RAIDER NATION 4 LIFE BABY!!!!!!!!

Reels Made In Japan V China V Korea V Malaysia V Usa
I try to avoid Chinese made products whenever I can. It's not always possible, but when it is ill gladly pay the extra money. A saying in my trade is, "skilled labor ain't cheap. And cheap labor ain't skilled."

Ive Decided I Suck
Happened to me the other day in two different spots. Wound up taking an hour and a half to pick through one of the birdnests, after I got home. I pond fish the majority of the time, and have gotten good at avoiding shoreline hangups. Yet it still happens. Usually when I get over confident in my spot and stop paying as much attention to my surrondings.

I Got A New Setup
Raider Nation Fisher replied to Raider Nation Fisher's topic in Fishing Rods, Reels, Line, and KnotsCouldnt wait till tommorow. I had to try it today. Both rod and reel were awesome. I love the Zillion rod. It handled the couple three lbers I caught amazingly. The reel was completely amazong as well. After a few minutes of dialing it in, it was throwing my gulp minnows a dang mile. If I could afford another one of these reels id buy it tommorow.

I Got A New Setup
Just got a Alphas Type R paired up with a 6'6" zillion mh, from my favorite outdoors store. I cant wait to try this thing out. I figured I might as well have one high end reel in my arsenal. I cant wait to fish this thing tommorow. Im bout as giddy as a schoolgirl.

Tattoos?
That is absolutely hysterical!! I havent laughed that hard in months. I seriously lol'd and snotted beer out my nose.

Tattoos?
That is hysterical. Get it with the fish looking up, and cover the whole outside of your bicep with it. The artist can resize the drawing before doing it, so you can see it in any number of sizes you want to. Also DO NOT get drunk before you get it. It will cause the tat to bleed ALOT when its being done. This in turn makes the artist mad, (it makes it harder for him to draw and get the ink in deep enough) and he will gouge the hell outta you with the needle. Ive had both my artist tell me they do this to people.

Tattoos?
Homie the Loomis logo would look sick. Plus with fishing, unlike skateboarding (i got the Blind Skateboards reaper on my right shoulder) you can do it for most all your life. I might have to jack your idea for part of my leg.
-
Tattoos?
I have my back done up. As well as one that takes up most of my upper left arm. Both are tats Ive wanted for a long time. This fall I will be finishing up the remainder of my upper left arm and starting on my legs. I swear the things are addictive. My reasons for getting them? I just like the way they look. There are no stories attached to them and I really could care less what anyone else thinks about them. Like I said, I just like the way they look.

Quantum Smoke Vs Shimano Curado
I have both the aformentioned reels. The smoke is one of my favorite reels. However my Curados have since replaced it as my go to reel. The reasons for this change are as follows. I feel that the Curado is a much smoother reel as far as casting and retrieve goes. The Smoke is quite smooth just not IMO as much as the Curado. I can dial in the brakes on my Curados and just forget about them. As opposed to having to constantly adjust them on the Smoke. My biggest complaint with my Smoke reels is that they backlash like all get out. Seems like every fourth cast Im having to pick out a backlash. Its the only reel that I have this kind of trouble with. Those are the reasons I prefer the Curado reels. I advise you to go for the Curado.
