I still come on and scroll the forum from time to time. Hardly post anymore. Been dealing with the aftermath of the hurricane. Some of my rental property took a little bit of a beating. Hope things been good on your end !
Good Shooting Chip !
Just like in the fighting world on next challenge ...Looks like with Chip's strong performance would love to see Chip & Danny run it back as a fan of one pocket :thumbup:
The reason everybody thinks they play better after few drinks is because they actually do.... Scientific reason is alcohol thins your blood and you can concentrate better with thinner blood...but if u have to many it becomes counter productive !
Gary Abood
Gary could play at a high level being pretty hammered...WE made a lot of spur of the moment money with games people thought they had the best of it because he was shit faced lol
Scotty Townsend

Loopholes
