true story. We helping a buddy of mine clear gutters. I was on the roof holding the ladder and when he climbed up he told me a joke. He said why do ducks have tail feathers? I said now’s not the time. I wanted to go home. He said to hide their butt quacks. I pushed the ladder over to the side and he fell about 10 to 13 feet. I was 21 it was a while ago. Felt bad ever sense. Just wasn’t in the mood for a joke like that at the time. Didn’t want to help him anyway. Ended up twisting his ankle jumping off.

We laugh about it now.
That’s a dick move bruh.

a 10-13 foot fall can kill you. very easily.

that’s actually an awful thing to do to someone. even bigger possibility that he could have been hurt for life.

Ms. Stevenson?

We jumped sht back then the height damn near i2 basketball goals. It wasn’t that high lol. And we were near teenagers. No way at that height it could have killed lol. He was literally head high with the gutters of a pool house lol. 😂

We used to jump that roof onto a trampoline then try and make it into the pool. Missed it many times. That could have killed us too. It was the 90’s, risking death was an afternoon out. He made it though, he’s doing fine. I’ll tell him of your concern.

This is a great representation of us back then.

The biggest loss here is time with the offense early in the season. Also the schedule isn’t exactly easy.

Not really any means to predict a dependable return time at this moment. I doubt his medical team knows. Yet.

At least the next man up gets some quality minutes. More depth for March.

Meh. He’s too weak to right now to play big boy SEC basketball, IMO. He needs to gain about 25-30 lbs. I would rather look at a different option for the PG position. I would go with Aberdeen, without question, over JJ.
He’s a bit slim, but not much different than a lot of pg's out there.
At 6'4", there are things he will be able to do that Lowe can't.
He might end up being a better defender, since he's so much longer than Lowe.

Back? 🤡. You’re on the politcs thread 24x7.

Not sure who you’re talking about but I’m not sure I’ve been on the politics thread in a very long time. I might have ventured over at some point but definitely not much at all in years. Wouldn’t even know when the last time was.

Who is it you think I am on the political forum?? Love to hear it.

Not just for this story haha. Only on rafters story like that turn you dips into a bunch of tight wad Karens. Glad to be back.
If you’re willing to push someone you consider a buddy off a ladder for making a joke, I shudder to think how you’d treat someone you don’t consider a buddy. I can at least appreciate that you said you feel bad about it, but I’m not sure it’s a funny story though. I’m certainly no Karen, but God will judge each of us for how we treat our neighbors. I’d rather fear God than getting that attaboy for being extra “tough”. Not here to pile on, but calling everyone Karen for reacting negatively to your story provoked me to say something as well. Your story sounded like sociopathic behavior, of which I hope you repent to God. If you don’t, it’s none of my business but it’s not in my hands. It’s between you and Him.

buddy, at that age, we did way worse lol. I’m not sure any of us are surprised by anything me and my guys did back then. What a weird post. He wasn’t even that high, lol. This **** is comical. It was a little home built pool house and we did way, way more than that.

We used to jump out of his 2 story window to sneak out late at night. I’m surprised we didn’t shove each other out. We flipped 4 wheelers, had pellet gun wars, bottle rocket wars, didn’t know what gun safety was at the time. I assure you if you saw the height you’d not consider it sociopathic behavior lol.

I repent, I repent. lol.

10/10 response.

I’ve never had a problem with you. I think you’re a good poster. I typically enjoy your stories. Moving the ladder on your buddy over a dad joke still seems uh…excessive to me. 🤷‍♂️

Lowe is a really important piece. Hopefully, it doesn’t keep him out too long.

Shudder to think lol. Imagine sitting around getting that bent over a random story on the internet.

My take is being young is how you get the dumb out of your system. If you didn’t do it then, you’ve probably accrued a surplus at this point.

Yea man, pretty weird they really got man lol. I was honestly surprised a bit by the responses except for KyBass. I think he’s an old one. Didn’t think I’d be asked to repent for it, that’s kinda new.

I went back and read it, thought maybe I accidentally said I threw him off one of the twin towers but nah.

Sht man we grew up in the jackass era of MTV. At one point I thought one of us died. We did something involving a bull while my friend was sleeping. I’ll leave that one alone around here. One of us were fat we called him fattus. He jumped off the roof to sneak out when we were like 14. Broke the sht out of his ankle. We put him on a bike and pushed him around - that thing swelled up like a melon. We told our parents he tripped and got it caught up in the banister of the stairs and tumbled down. They bought it too.

Will not deny we were wild. We’ve discussed the 90’s / early 2,000’s many times. How we survived it we still don’t know. The ole “it’s 10:00 do you know where your kids are” era. I edited to say I did repent for that one, and I’ve tried to raise my kids to be considerate people.

RIP Morg’s buddy and all the balls that never fully developed in this thread.
Hey man, if you think it’s worth a attaboy for someone who thinks it’s funny to push your friends off ladders at 10-15 feet for making dad jokes, I guess you’re just “cooler” than me lol. Risking serious injury of your buddy is cool, man. Everybody does it.

15 feet? We were cleaning gutters and he didn’t pay me and was supposed to. He thought that was funny. It’s a little shed pool house. His head might have been at the 10 feet mark or a little higher, maybe a little higher. A 12 year old can make the jump. But keep picturing this as a guy being thrown from the Empire State Building I guess lol.

Probably show him the thread when I go in next weekend. He’ll get a kick out of this lol.

If it was bad, John Wall is free now. Just get him enrolled, suited up, and lawyer up. He still has eligibility. NCAA is completely toothless now.

I'm only half joking. If Mitch had balls there's a chance you could pull it off in this era. 😄

It sucks but it's not world ending.

We've got 4 dudes that can play point if need be

1. Aberdeen
2. JJ
3. CC
4. Noah

Granted, the further you get down the list the less ideal, but it's not like you had Butler and Kerr and then "uh oh".
Lol. Chandler and Noah at PG? Come on man. Aberdeen and Jasper will be fine, but if it's gets to either of Chandler or Noah playing PG for an extended period...last seasons ceiling becomes this seasons ceiling.

It sounds like Lowe will be working on that shoulder, strengthening those muscles and working on flexibility.
He's young and in shape. This won't be a season ending injury from the sounds of it.

I'm just hoping that's correct.

That's also three people down the list. If we get that far something awful has happened.
