NCAA Football Bowl Games
Like I already said, I just don't understand the mentality. Not saying there is anything wrong with it, it's just not who I am as a person to cheer for a team that my team can't beat year in and year out and that is what SEC fans do. When OU moves to the SEC and finishes 3rd or 4th every year, I won't be happy and certainly will never cheer for another SEC team to win the NC. The last few years I would have said OU had a 70-80% chance to make the CFP before the season started. Once they join the SEC, I would say they start the season with about a 10-20% chance. I only want one team to win and that is OU, that's just how I was raised I guess. I'm also realistic and realize it may be a long time till they win a NC, it's already been 21 years and they blew their chances too many times to count.

NCAA Football Bowl Games
Alabama, LSU and Georgia have won the conference the last 19 years, seems to be really benefitting the other schools. But as long as big brother has a good job and gives me money, I'm okay with it. That is the SEC fan mentality. Sorry, forgot about Auburn. Throw them in the mix and it's 4 teams out of 14 that have won the conference in 22 years.

Seth Feider
He's always ripping a dart and the camera pans to him and then away from him. Wonder who smokes more, him or Thrift? LOL BTW, he seems like a guy you would want at your BBQ.

Help me choose a new jig rod
I only have experience with the Zodias and the Expride. The Expride is worth the $60 more. I would love to try the Levante though.

Jerk bait Rod
Perfect! Use mono and set your drag correctly. I used the exact same rod and it worked great. I used it with a 70 mgl and it was amazing.

Affording a Bass Boat at 22
When I was 22 I had a plastic 8' pond hopper that I would take to the lake. Stay close to shore and watch the wind was my mentality. LOL

NCAA Football Bowl Games
Will you guys be mad that I don't root for the best team in the SEC when OU joins the conference? I just don't get it.....I really don't. Why would you want the best to keep getting better? I have NEVER, and would NEVER root for Texas to win any game. I don't care if they are playing the Taliban. Who knows though, maybe some teams are just so used to being middle of the pack that they know they don't have a chance so they might as well cheer for big brother????

Clear vs Green
I will worry about the color of my line when they start making clear hooks. As long as those silver shiny things dangling down don't bother the fish, I am not sure a .012 piece of material is going to.

So I Received a Christmas Bonus...
Curado 70 mgl and an Expride is what I would buy. I have owned every rod and reel already mentioned and this is the perfect combo for what has been mentioned. But, I would prefer the 20 Metanium over the Curado if that were an option. EDIT: I should add, I would go less on the reel to get the Expride over the Zodius, even if that meant going with an SLX mgl

Early Spring: Lipless & Squarebill Tips?
I fish a lipless anytime. Time of year depends on where and how. Cold months I like to fish it around rock and yo-yo it. The warmer it gets, I will find grass and burn it. A squarebill is for warmer water for me. Here is a 7+ from I think Jan 7th of this year on a lipless.

Favorite sandwich shop
Where I live, we have a Sonic, a burger joint and a BBQ place. A guy that is on the fire dept. with me just put in a sandwich shop. He makes really good sandwiches, soups and salads. I usually get a wrap because I am not much of a bread guy, but I did try is bread and it is really good as well. A lot better and cheaper than the chains IMO.

Round swimbait reel
I would try to find a used Calcutta. There is one on the auction site right now for $204 BIN that looks like it is in great shape.

Weighing your tackle box/boxes ???
Well, from March - October I went to 208 softball games (coached in about 50) and have already been to 22 basketball games since the start of November. I just don't get to go as much as I would like.

FedEX gives me heartburn.
Our USPS driver is awesome. She gives our dog treats. We are on the very beginning of her route. She usually delivers between 8:30 - 9:00 everyday. Yesterday she delivered at 12:45 and said she had just started her route. She said she was put on "holiday hours" instead of given the opportunity of overtime. She told me her boss said her hours were 7-4 and it was her job to deliver till she was done. Needless to say, she was furious. This is why we are seeing the problems we are. It goes with all delivery services.

Maybe he just needed a hug
I know we live in a time where we seem to have to be on edge about everything, but sometimes I think we need to just be as kind as we can. The more I have thought about this, the more I think I was put in this situation for a reason. Some of you may not believe in things like that, but I do believe this man needed a hug and I was happy to oblige. BTW, I would hug anyone who ever needed one. I know some of you won't understand but you have no idea how many kids NEVER get hugged or even told they are loved. And this can go for ANYONE.

Weighing your tackle box/boxes ???
I have been tossing around the idea of selling my boat till the kids graduate, then I think, what will I do with all that tackle. LOL
