I just turned it on. Their offense is looking combobulated to me. That save by the COD defender was crazy

Edit: Congo's goalie is FULLY combobulated. Holy crap that dude is standing on his head

Thanks for coming by! Great to see you!

England in trouble early. Are they going to be the next "giant" to fall after Netherlands and Germany?

When I was younger, squirrel hunting was my favorite thing to do (other than fishing). I can remember sitting on the football bus getting ready to play a big game, and all I could think about was where I was going squirrel hunting the next morning. You could kill a mess of squirrels on the mountain and before you got back to the house you wouldn't have any left as the old timers would take them off your hands. You couldn't pay someone to eat squirrel today, and no one is hardly left that knows how to cook it. I had an old friend that, till the day he died, would gladly tell you that his mother's squirrel and gravy was his favorite food of all time. It's a shame my kids aren't able to enjoy those times and people as they were a big part of my childhood and adolescence.

The world is in a strange place, and I certainly agree with what you state. My old friends used to have a saying when they made it out of the hollow with a job or other means, that they couldn't wait to eat square bread and round meat. They somehow thought store bought bread and cold cuts were better than the homeade biscuits and tenderloin they had to eat growing up. Most were poor but they never knew it and lived better than the majority of us now. Get us a 30 rack of Busch Light and a couple of hours on the porch and we can probably solve some of it.

I think Belgium are kind of lucky to be in the knockouts, to be honest. Senegal had to play Norway and France. They're more battle tested and I think are the better team. Belgium aren't pushovers though. They have talent, and experience. It'll be an interesting match but I expect Senegal to win it

My daddy always took me out, but he flyfished while I did the boat skulling and fished with a cane pole. When I hit 10 or 11, I started using the cane pole as a fly rod to toss yellow poppers, no reel, no line adjustment but I still caught a couple of big bluegills and dad had to admit that I was gonna fly fish so we went to the local hardware store and he got me a flyrod and an automatic reel since the deal was, he bought us a 5 hp motor at Roses and paid for the boat rental and I skulled the boat while he just fished so I had to operate the fly rig with one hand. Also, I could eat a BBQ for every beer he drank at lunch back at the boat rental, and nobody said boo to mom. The good ole days on the Northwest River.

Hunger would solve that imbalance. I mean people's hunger. For many years surrounding the Great Depression, folks in the hills would hunt deer, bears, turkeys, grouse and even woodpeckers, meadowlarks and English sparrows for survival. It took decades for the hill populations to fully recover only to hit a different time when casual hunters faded into other pursuits and serious hunters managed deer for antlers without the necessary culling of enough does to offset the increased population because of their management, ie food plots, winter corn feeding, etc. I really don't think hunting will make a big comeback unless we're forced to eat woodpeckers and meadowlarks again and video games won't seem so important, so we gotta figure something out.

TL;DR: If the starters don't get it done and we start subbing, we dead.

IT'S A HELLUVA TOWN!

I believe!!!!

Canada and Mexico both advance. Will the USMNT choke, or make the host nations 3/3? I have a sinking feeling it'll be the former, but would love to be wrong

I never catch shit on fishbites or sandfleas from the surf (though I keep trying). The only luck I typically have is with my trusty box of frozen squid. Luck, of course, is a relative term. I typically pull in skates/rays/dogfish, but occasionally I'll pull in some whiting or croaker.
