I say it's standard USAFA grad trying to be funny and doesn't realize that he really isn't funny. Saw several bios like that when I went through SPS. And we recruited the power tools from the zoo at EN. *Disclaimer - I have zero problem with Academy grads. But you gotta admit, some of them are huge tools when they get to UPT.

College Loan Consolidation
Feel free to move if this would go better elsewhere. My wife and I were curious if it is possible to use the military to help get lower interest rates on her student loans (currently at 6.9%)? Anyone have any familiarity with something like this?

Didn't say don't comment on any aspect. Just don't comment on the "how to" if you have never done. IMHO, it's just like a guy commenting on the best way to provide airlift in a C-17 if all he's done is fly Hogs.

Using Steve Hutchinson as an example of "douche" like play, you could make a case. On similar grounds, any good offensive lineman can be clarified as a douche if they play with his level of intensity and violence between the whistles. He is one of the best (if not the best) run blocking guards in the league and finishes each of his blocks with some nastiness (so to speak). That's what makes him great. The difference between him and a guy like James Harrison is that Hutchinson does his job within the bounds of the rules. Harrison knows what the rules are, knows that people are looking for him to break them, and breaks them anyway. Then calling the commissioner a "faggot" in an interview is a bad technique. Not as bad of a technique as repeatedly calling out Rainman while being a teenage girl commenting on the NFL, but close. I don't think that anyone should comment on how to play a game if they have never played it before. Commenting on professionalism is one thing, but talking about how to play the game is asinine. This is why I think that the drive to get more women into a football broadcasting booth is stupid as hell. There is SO MUCH more to football than most fans know, and learning that is done by spending hours and hours on a practice field and in meeting rooms and in film study. Not watching a football game or two a week. In college, I spent almost 40 hours a week just on football stuff. That is why former players make the best broadcasters and can give actual good insight to the game instead of "nice run!" I played Division 1 football, and they teach you to tackle the exact same way the teach you to tackle when you're 6 years old. Good base, eyes on his belt buckle, drive THROUGH the ball carrier (most often screwed up), fire your hands up and THROUGH the guy, and grab onto anything you can get a hold of (including stupid ######ing dreadlocks), and swarm to the ball carrier so that 10 other teammates drive him into the ground. Here's a perfect example of a big hit coupled with good form tackling by the best (IMHO) Middle Linebacker in the league, Patrick Willis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VHCdAGccOg

For all the shit I've seen you write about unified field theory or whatever other crazy, Stephen Hawkingesque stuff you pontificate upon, this is the smartest/funniest thing I've ever seen you write. And a Steve Hutchinson reference Rainman? Respect.

Here is a very interesting article on why people hate Tebow. Very interesting perspective how if he was a Muslim that he would be praised for being brave and all this other stuff but is instead vilified for his public religious displays. https://msn.foxsports...hate-him-110211 *EDIT for article quote add

The dude is 7-1 since taking over and all but one of those wins have been in dramatic fashion. No doubt the Denver defense is playing great and their special teams play has been lights out, but what is your opinion on Tebow?

'Bama vs LSU, or LSU vs OSU?
I think OSU played themselves into the title game with that jihad against OU last night. Holy crap.

Longest Serving Airman in the History of DOD, Retiring Tomorrow
I can salute a man who served 46 years in the Air Force without a cheap shot comment. However, those comments are pretty damn funny.

Thread revival extrordinaire: What is the policy of a dude who can't pass a higher g fuge profile (Viper, Eagle, etc) going to a Hog? To my understanding, Hog assigned guys don't even go to the fuge since their 38 qual is the same profile (correct me if I'm wrong).- RSU comments

An old but appropriate toast: "###### Osama Bin Laden, that son of a bitch. May his dick fall off from the seven year itch. May we bang on his balls with a big, brass hammer, Until his asshole whistles the Star Spangled Banner!" I honestly think the most motivating part of the story was the gathering of all the people at the White House and Ground Zero and all over the country waving flags and chanting "USA! USA!" and such. That was great.- F-15E Down in Libya
I know the Geneva Convention doesn't allow POW's to return to combat. The US interprets that as the same theater of operations. I would imagine that those dudes somehow massaged that rule to get back in the fight.- Low Fly Complaints
