1935 - 1985 MLB Bucket & Cap Draft : CHAT

Oh and I have these asshole gophers all over the place. They won't touch my neighbors lawn but they love my place. Any suggestions to get rid of them?

But, seriously, I consider gophers and ground squirrels part of nature. If I kill something, I eat it. No help from me as I don't know.

Yeah, I'm not about killing everything I consider a nuisance. Unless they are spiders...fuck those guys.

But I'd just want to get them out. We bought these solar powered noise things that were supposed to help annoy them to leave. But so far hasn't worked. They've adapted and are now stronger for it.

Two things in the world i'm afraid of.... Cancer and Bats

There's a movie script in their somewhere!
 
If you have enough 'skeeters, you'll welcome all the bats to live around you. I have 6 bat houses around my out buildings. Love sitting out back at dusk and watching them.


Okay sit down.... When I was in my early 20's I did masonry work and after a 12 hour day I came home, showered and went to bed. As I lay down I felt something on my leg I went to swipe it away as I thought it was a fly nope "THUD" I hit the bat it began flying around my room, I could barely see because the lights were off but there was some moonlight coming threw the windows and I grabbed one of my work boots and started screaming like a girl and swinging trying to hit the damn thing, finally I connected and he was finished, couldn't sleep for hours!

Also, I grew up in Minnesota there was a lake and a pond visible from the roof of my house there were times I had parties and we would have a bon fire outside but even with everyone bringing their own jug of off and the fire the skeeters were too much and we had to move the party inside, fuck mosquitos but fuck bats 100X more!!
 
I did text Troy
 
I'm not speaking for anyone else but the drafts are boring now, without conversation what's the point, it's the same people doing the same drafts over and over. I do agree with Sushi about the politics conversation but in all honesty at this point if you are supporting the current administration you should be ashamed of yourself! I know that was uncalled for!! I do agree with Ben that when Ritzy and Savali were with us there was much more conversation, Ritz was literally here 15 hours a day and Savali always kept us included in his family and the boys lives, fuck I miss that bastid! But it's pretty sad that without them we don't talk at all. Ritzy text me a couple weeks ago asking if I had a fantasy football league he could join this year. So far we have Shane, 500, Ducey, Orlando, Ritzy, Stoke, Femur and myself in the league on fantrax, it's a money keeper league. I wish more of you would join.

Back when I started doing drafts on CBS like 15 years ago, we did a MLB trade challenge, we each take a team (usually) a team that would be in the hunt for a playoff spot and another team that would struggle and we would trade with others in the league, to trade and improve our good team for a playoff run and then also trade our vets from our bad team for prospects and we would vote on who did the best job of helping their good team and who did the best job of obtaining prospects for the future of their less than good team. Honestly that's what got me so into minor league ball, I did so much research back then on minor league players it was fun, i'd love to try that again at some point. I think Smitty and 500 might remember when I ran those on CBS.

I don't want the drafts to die but we need to come up with other ideas, also don't be mad about my political jab Sushi! Love ya brother!!
Other ideas won't start up to much more conversation again just spice up the drafts which I think could be a good change regardless.

Really looking forward to the dynasty draft, I think if more joined that alone could strike up conversation. Probably need to start a thread. If we are all pretty active then trading is more possible which is always a great thing.
 
Today's free life hack: eating cheetos with chopsticks.
I'm actually pretty good using chopsticks. Right after college I used to go to an all-you-can-eat sushi place with a couple buddies. It was our "cheat meal" for the week and we would order 6 rolls a piece, that's how I got pretty good with chopsticks lol.

So I'm pretty good with chopsticks also. I'm also very Americanized so I can see if someone wouldn't just outright assume I'm good with them. Whenever I would go out to eat with my wife's family(Chinese), my mother-in-law, without fail, would ALWAYS ask me if I wanted a fork. She never asked anyone else, lol. Everyone there ate with chopsticks, but she would always make an emphasis to ask me. Still does it from time to time, but instead of getting offended I think it's hilarious.

True story.
