Nice! Huge training area-or at least it used to be. And also in Bavaria, or at least close to it. Congratulations.

Yes it appears that is still the case. I think it'll be a good experience

Is it just me or is the music from the classic Conan film (the one where James Earl jones plays the bad guy) crazy similar to Allman Brothers’ Whipping Post?

I had my first camp for a D1 FCS school today. Was the smallest and probably the youngest OL guy there but held my own, also found out I’m 5’9 and a quarter with 6’2 wingspan, and had a 5.68 40 with a 85 inch broad.

Random thoughts with ACamp1900: the way a person views the Godfather 2 Fredo/Michael dynamic tells me a lot about that person. I don’t want ‘Fredo is the good guy’ types in my foxhole.

In honor of Greyhammer, let it be known that today is the birthday of Doc Holliday.

Fun fact, I read that what Val Kilmer as Holliday is not saying "I'm your huckleberry" but actually "I'm your Huckle-bearer" which was old southern slang for pall-bearer. Which is more bad ass, in my opinion. Doc Holliday is telling guys that he's going to so them to their grave.

He’s saying “I’m your huckleberry”. It’s an old reference towards Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn it’s an easily Googled reference

I read that too and I’m not sure if I believed it but 🤷‍♂️

AI knows, and according to him, you're both incorrect. I previously thought huckle-bearer.

Val said in his memoirs it's huckleberry and was an appropriate phrase of the time to mean "I'm your guy", "I'm the one you want".

Well, like Jimi Hendrix sang "'Scuse me, while I kiss this guy."
