She doesn't make it thru a lot of Varsity games.... they end too late and the Sandman visits Natasha early.... but this was a special night. Her first question to Ash, "Did you score a TD?"by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
Ashton is just under 5' 10".... my oldest grandson, Mason, is 6' even and his brother Gavin 5' 10". So if the reason you're asking is to compare to me.... yeah, they all tower over me. :laughingby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
Ashton lit it up tonight. Over 200yds rushing in the 1st half... 4 rushing TD's for the night and threw for another. Didn't play a lot in the 2nd half so no idea of his total yds rushing. And all this in front of Bob Ladouceur.... know him? You might have seen him, (or rather the actor who played him), in the movie "When The Game Stands Tall"... ex-Coach for De La Salle.

You bring up a fascinating topic... I can't answer it. Favorite Boxer. In the 70's and 80's there were so many that I loved to watch. Nearly all of them in the lighter weight classes. I was a huge fan of Alexis Arguello, Carlos Monzon, Julio Chavez, Hector Camacho, Ray Mancini, the list is very long. But the boxer I very first became a super-fan of was Floyd Patterson.

and I did not see Andy's stunt in wrestling... but I never thought that guy was funny. Yes, he had some very funny moments in Taxi but on his own I just didn't get that guy. As for wrestling.... took my son to one of the big matches... might have been called "wrestle mania", I can't remember... but MANY top stars were there. Hulk, Sgt. Slaughter, The Iron Sheik, Andre, Junkyard Dogby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
To a team they trounced in the regular season. He hasn't as yet responded to my texts so I'm pretty sure he's not taking it well. We got to watch the game because his school live-streamed it on Facebook. But Nico, (my grandson), has another year left in HS... he'll be back.... NOT until after Rugby season, however, his FIRST love.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
And even though I was always aware of that it didn't dampen my love for the sport. Getting back into it isn't easy.. however, because it's like the powers that be in Boxing are intentionally trying to destroy the sport... if they haven't already. right now the marquee match-up that most agree with be the bout of the last decade is going thru all that bickering BS.... that being Spence vsby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
It's been 10 years that I've had a grandson on the HS Varsity.... next year - nope! BUT.... after a one year break my youngest grandson becomes a Freshman in HS... but tonight.... Most likely Ashton's last game on the Kerman football field tonight.. unless we get a home game in the playoffs. (slight chance) Been one hell of a ride for Ashton, and us, his family. He's looking to continuby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
For Stafford I look at it like Linus getting his blanket back.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
Yeah... we got those LA fights here.... my Dad and I watched them all. Remember "Windmill White"? He would throw punches from behind his back during clinches.... my Dad would roar with laughter. Good memories... thanks for that video. - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
doesn't make sense, right... except I think they had that task already, before CMC... is it worse now? Maybe, probably, but it's the same damn problem.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I did NOT expect that.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I like that about you. :laughingby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
Telephone poles, (back when anyway), were no where near as tall... maybe ⅔ the size?by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
You could do a hell of a lot worse. and in 21Dog's words... the man DOES play bigger than his metrics.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
in that: it's coming. I don't know if the O can snap out of the doldrums... but I truly do believe our D steps it up BIG time.... and that from a pretty darned good start.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't think I've ever seen a more determined and ferocious RB than McCaffrey IN COLLEGE... and yes, no need to tell me that College does NOT necessarily translate to the NFL. I lean, admittedly, to players with 'heart'.. and McCaffrey has as big a heart as I've ever seen...... BUT... injuries!!! The injury worries me, a LOT.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
they insist that Tyson was the greatest ever.... heavyweight that is. My guess is that most of you will agree since he was more of 'your' era. I would choose one of 'my' era... which is no different than YOU except, I'd be right. :laughing Well, actually... That's true but I think I have more to go on than just 'my era'. Ali was fast... and not just 'fast' but otherworldly fast. IN Hby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub

This won't go over AT ALL with the anti-boxing crowd.... no doubt about it... but I'm not going there.... There was a time when boxing, for me, was second only to football. I lost interest because of the squabble's over money... WBF, WBA, WBO, IBF... the list is longer than your arm and the combined arm lengths existing in the state of Utah. The squabbles essentially killed the sport.. .by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
before making mine... yeah. that guy is NOT big.... Actually I'm not as concerned with size as much as how I read the board consensus.... but still.... gotta scratch my head on this one.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I didn't do any due diligence here but isn't this guy smaller than any RB we have? Isn't that PRECISELY what everyone of the board does NOT want?by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
We have 3 indoors cats. I went from not a single 'house-cat' in my life to a house ruled by cats. do I like that? Well.. allow me to say first - I am NOT a cat person... BUT... I do like cats. I'm not anti-cat by any means although I DO prefer them outdoors. HOWEVER.... I live in a field... and this time of the year is 'mouse-season'. In the last two days my 3 indoors cats have caughtby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
Ain't a chance in HELL Dell is fitting into that Jersey. :laughing I think when the school ordered them they didn't have a DI football lineman in mind. :laughingby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub

What is standard height for those poles? 30', maybe 40'? That's one hell of a lot of snow. I cannot imagine living where it snows that much... or snow's at all for that matter. :laughingby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
Definitely some bumps in the road along the way.... but well worth... been very fortunate with both my kids and my my grandkids. I appreciate your words, Iowa, truly - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
21Dog remembers this guy... played for Fresno St. Dell Hawkins. New tradition (to be a tradition) started at Kerman High School. All the senior football players pick a Kerman unified employee that has made a huge impact on their life. They ask them to come to their senior night game and give them their jersey to wear at the game. Note: "Employee"... can be a teacher, a bus driveby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
