The NFL's got too many rules about how you can't hit guys anymore. Roughing the passer -- come on! If you can get back to the QB, I say he should be hit just as hard as anyone else. He's got gear, right? Roughing the kicker -- learn to play around it and kick with some real equipment on. Punting has no excitement to it anymore.
One rule they put in place while I was in high school was roughing the snapper (that kind of sounds dirty...lol) on the long snaps. For the first two years, I would get rolled over because those guys could nail me anytime. I'd just be starting to look up from making the snap and boom! There's a guy in my face coming at me with full force. I'd usually end up down, but he never got through to the kicker. However, I was ready for it, and expected it, not complaining about it. I liked the challenge of getting the ball to the kicker cleanly and then how to stop a guy when he had the definite advantage on me. However, the last two years, they made a rule that you couldn't even touch the guy doing the long snaps.

I'm on page 226 right now.... LMAO!!!
So far, the only cop I saw was a Trooper on the PGBT (President George Bush Turnpike) with a customer. But even if he wasn't busy, I wouldn't mess with them. They're notorious for not having a sense of humor. Well, that and I was already doing over 100 testing whether or not the speed reading in the odometer would read after the gauge dropped to zero. It doesn't. Good thing he was busy already...

I just can't stay away from you folks. You all are a bad habit.
LOL. cute.
Daaaaaaaammnn...you're a tough SOB.
You just got hotter for some reason...
I love mine. Has been very easy quad to take care of too. Just regular oil changes and a set of rear brakes so far. I love the power of the bigger ATVs, like the Grizzly, but they don't fit on some of the trails too well.
Eeek. WTF is wrong with people. Is it REALLY that hard to NOT cheat? Please!
Chris I am glad you haven't told all these guys how much of a dork I really am...after talking on the phone with me, you know the real truth.
Yeah, Tom Selleck has his benefits. Older Selleck is much hotter than younger Selleck though. I guess he's been in Playgirl several times, never seen it..curious though.
Lets see, hot guy pics...
Ok this one isn't so random. This is Trace, ...GRRrrRRrRR! Trace is my make-believe husband.
A good example. Although they are a bit too ripped and hairless for my taste.
A good one: Jamey Johnson. Former marine, country music singer. Awesome voice I am a real sucker for a deep voice.

Kodiaks are fun quads! I got one a few years ago, a friend bought it from me last year, and it's still a fun bike. I went bigger, but I'm not sure I like going bigger. That Kodiak is just about the perfect size for the woods riding stuff we do here.
Damn Lisa, 10 mice! :eek

I played QB in high school and was really pretty good at it. Went both ways, played defensive back on defense. Joined the Marines and figured I'd continue my football career there. Yeah right. I weighed 160 pounds at the time, and I do not think there was one other player that was under 220. I don't mind telling you, at 17 years old I wanted no part of that. Viet Nam even sounded safer......LOL....

Funny story... On the way home last night, I stop at the 7-Eleven to pick up some TP (forgot to get some at the grocery store the night before). So I set it on the counter, pay for it, and the clerk must've been in automatic mode because she said "Enjoy!!" as I turned and started to walk out the door. I paused, turned, and said "Oh, I **WILL**!!" She started laughing her a$$ off when she realized what she did...

Before I forget:
Also extremely HOT
Ewwww Sheldon!
What do you want to know about it? The newer Kodiaks are 450's I think. You can go smaller, for a starter quad...depends on how comfortable Sandi is on them. I'd go used for sure. No power steering or fluff suspension but no one needs that crap.

When I tore my acl, I tore it completely, and did my heavy hard oilfield job for a month after, till one time my lower leg just about separated from my upper leg at my knee.
It was then i decided to go to the doctor and get it checked out.

I guess just the whole reliability of it, Im all about how tough it is and how long it would last! I noticed that here the yamahas are pretty nicely priced right now too. We had an old yamaha, 1985-86 out at my grandpas farm, and we just sold it this year. Never had any problems with it.
That is a machine!

Mine was a 450, automatic, push button 4x4 with push button diff lock, and independent rear suspension. I didn't realize how nice the IRS was until I actually rode a quad that had it.
It's a very tough quad too, still running strong. Never had a problem with engine, trans, diffs, belt drive, axles, nothing. Had one recall to replace tie rod ends, but that's been it as far as mechanical stuff. It does have a slightly bent front rack and tweaked frame, when the quad decided to have an up close and personal chat with a tree at about 20 mph. That's not the quads fault though, so you can't blame the quad. It was a case of operator error.

Randy rolled it last summer, and it was left running upside down for a few minutes (I wasn't there when this happened). Bent my gun rack all to hell and the front rack also...oil all over the place.
I basically took her apart there in the mountains, and filled her back up on the 5w-40 synthetic Rotella I had in the truck..ran like a champ.
Good little quad, and I am really really hard on stuff. I jump it and ride it through deep water and go through giant mud pits and slide it around corners doing 45 mph...I've hauled entire downed pine trees with it..it never complains..and its never gotten stuck. I have a ball hitch on it and I used to use it to pull the trailer too once I got the truck parked, so it can scoot a little bit of weight. It has a 4 high and 4 low 4wd feature that will get you out of just about anything.

How to explain the stranger in my motor home to the woman that is so kindly letting me park in her driveway. As far as what the condoms are for, that is all I have to say about that. I think the female in the pharmacy is just trying to embarrass me.
