If he was going, I wouldn't catch a fish all week and he'd catch four or five 10 pounders. His *** can stay at the house thank you very much. ;D

Not a court in the world would convict someone for giving that woman a royal beatdown.

And the first package is gone. I remember there being more cookies in a box back when my sister sold these things.

No, there's Daiwa too.

I hate you... Don't forget that I have my own personal BPS just a couple of miles away.

5bass and I will be driving by BPS if you need anything.

Have you ever inserted the map card into a card reader?

That sorry wretched Beast left three boxes of Thin Mints on my porch this morning. Just cracked open the first bag. After eating the local Walmart's stock of Edy's Thin Mint ice cream over the last month, these are a welcome addition to the snack bag.

There's a great double entendre there, but I won't touch it with a 10 meter cattle prod.

Stefan's arrogance will be his undoing. As is often the case on this show, things really change once you get to the top five or six. Once you get to that point, most of the pretenders are gone and those who are left come to realize that they are good chefs. Then they start cooking like it. Carla is coming on strong and has a great chance of winning. Hopefully this week's elimination of Fabio will cause Stefan to refocus on the goal.

In the context of this thread, tis a spooky yes.

No :-[

Six weeks to go.

All hail Johnny Morris the Great! : Is Shimano not free to make business decisions as they see fit? If I was in charge at Shimano, BPS would never sell another one of my reels after BPS inserted that bit of BS in their flyer two years ago, much less after this year. A simple 'Discounts do not apply to Shimano reels' would have sufficed.

It has EVERYTHING to do with ESPN & BASS. ESPN owns BASS & ESPN360. This is just an example of poor marketing. How is it poor marketing? espn360 is a free service provided by ESPN and participating ISP's. If your ISP does not provide espn360, you are free to either change ISP's or request that your ISP carry espn360. Poor marketing...

How can anyone at ESPN think that this remotely would be a good idea!? ESPN continues to ruin BASS! Boy, you people never learn. This isn't about ESPN and BASS. : ESPN360.com is only available to certain ISP's. It has absolutely nothing to do with BASS. : : : : : :

Cavitron buzzbaits, Evolution jigs.

Personal attacks are unethical, one's guilt trip is out of my control. Guilt trip? For what, calling a spade a spade?

Value is about far more than price.

I was going to ask if you'd gone blind...

espn360.com is showing the weigh-in live. The pageantry just started.

Given the selection of Shimano reels I've seen on the BPS shelves in Atlanta, Charlotte and Sevierville, BPS isn't selling many Shimano reels.

February 19, 2009 Shimano Joins Anglers' Legacy Shimano Joins Anglers' Legacy to Encourage Participation in Fishing and Boating 'Ultimate Hook Up' Contest to Award Prize Packages and Encourage Visitors to 'Take the Pledge' ALEXANDRIA, VA (February 18, 2009) Shimano is kicking off a national Anglers' Legacy Pledge drive this month, the Recreational Boating & Fishing Foundation (RBFF) announced today. In an effort that will run throughout 2009, Shimano is encouraging anglers nationwide to "Take the Pledge," a promise to introduce at least one new person to fishing. With a goal of recruiting 10,000 new Anglers' Legacy Ambassadors, Shimano's Pledge drive will coincide with the release of the new Voltaeus rod series. Each Voltaeus rod will carry an Anglers' Legacy hang tag a first among major rod and reel manufacturers. Shimano will also encourage new rod owners to take the Anglers' Legacy Pledge as part of its Voltaeus 'Ultimate Hook-Up' contest. Those who enter the contest at www.voltaeus.com are eligible to win prizes including an 18 foot Skeeter boat with trailer and Yamaha outboard, 2009 Toyota Tundra truck, $250 Shimano Gift Card, $2,500 shopping spree and NASCAR race tickets. Additionally, new Ambassadors will be automatically entered into monthly drawings to receive a Shimano Voltaeus Rod/Reel combo, complete with Sufix line and a pack of TriggerX lures. The contest will be promoted nationwide through online and print advertisements, and during spring fishing events at Shimano dealers. "Shimano's customer base is a natural fit for the Anglers' Legacy message and we are excited that they will be encouraging boaters and anglers to sign on," said RBFF President & CEO Frank Peterson. "Anglers' Legacy has signed up more than 90,000 Ambassadors nationwide. This means the program may have already generated $23 million for the boating and fishing industries and more than 150,000 new fishing licenses for states, supporting critical conservation efforts." "Shimano is proud to support Anglers' Legacy," added Shimano Marketing Manager Cody Herman. "We look forward to introducing thousands of newcomers to fishing during the coming months. The Voltaeus rod series is ideal for promoting Anglers' Legacy since it is versatile for both the avid angler as well as a new angler being introduced to the sport." Anglers' Legacy, a program aimed at increasing first-time fishing and boating experiences, has signed on more than 90,000 Ambassadors nationwide since its *** in May 2006. Based on a recent RBFF survey, Ambassadors purchase approximately $140 in fishing tackle and equipment, $153 in boating supplies and accessories, and more than three fishing licenses which support critical fish and wildlife management efforts through the Sport Fish Restoration Program.
