- Ki-Jana Carter vs Oregon, 1995 Rose Bowl
- Aaron Harris vs Ohio State, 1997
- Chafie Fields vs Miami, 1999

Pinky contributes approximately 50% of your grip strength. The ring finger is scientifically the least important.

Thanks for the info. The criteria for my MR of fingers were definitely not scientific :)

Legit question: If we didn’t have pinkies at all, would the ring finger then shoulder the most responsibility for grip strength?

Perhaps the Ringster is a real sleeper just waiting and hoping for evolution to give it its chance to shine.

The Blue Chip Backup QB of Fingers, if you will.

Barkleys run was the single best td run I’ve ever seen. Power, vision, acceleration, change of direction followed by flat out speed. Everything a great running back can do in one play.

Sandwich Shops

Lio's Pizza & Subs Linglestown - GONE



The Sandwich Man



Jackson House



Best available in Tampa Bay

Delcos



Best Cubans - GONE

Their Cuban hot sauce made the sandwich.

Have you tried the Colonial Corner in Pinellas Park? A hole in the wall with great cheese steaks. The lady that owns it gets up early every day to bake the rolls. It really gives Delcos a run for the money

Chafie made the Hurricane flag go limp after that play.

It turned into Packer's Pizza, they were close but it was obnoxious having green bay regalia in there. You tolerated it since they kept most of the suppliers and recipes. Now I think it's some generic joint, but it hasn't been Lio's in years. Maybe it's still ok but I live thousands of miles away now.

The italian subs, the chicken parms, the pizza steaks... their bread was sooooo good. Middleswarth chips... I'd pay $20 right now just to smell that place one more time.

If CD stands for Central Dauphin, then "hey now" to you, fellow alumnus.
It’s my initials but also can apply to the HS alma mater (‘94). Last time I was in Lio’s was 2018 and it felt like nothing had changed, other than no video game against the wall.

No but I will next time I'm over that way. Thanks.

I took a personal crack at this one…

Let It Be
Something
In My Life
Blackbird

There are probably at least a dozen others that could get swapped into one of those spots on any given day, depending on my mood.

Best Hitchcock films:
1. Notorious
2. Shadow of a Doubt
3. Vertigo
4. Psycho
FWIW, Shadow of a Doubt is Hitchcock’s personal favorite of his films. It’s surely his most underrated. Part of its issue is that Hitchcock made a ton of movies with big time stars, Bergman, Stewart, Grant, Kelly, and Shadow of a Doubt only has Joseph Cotten and Teresa Wright.

Swanson Fried Chicken TV dinner
Swanson Turkey TV dinner
Swanson Salisbury Steak TV dinner
Swanson Spaghetti and Meatballs TV dinner


Mmmmmm. They were tasty to this little kid.
I was partial to Morton’s meat loaf and turkey dinners. I agree with Swanson spaghetti. The Salisbury steak induced projectile vomit episodes. Swanson chicken pies were another favorite.

Mount Rushmore of James Bond actors:

1. Daniel Craig
2. Daniel Craig
3. Daniel Craig
4. Daniel Craig

Current season of White Lotus has Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter films) and I swear he looks like retired Daniel Craig as James Bond...

Isaac’s was born to be a heavy.

Connery is my Bond, but Craig is a close second.

Tom Hardy should be the next Bond.
