Bull Sharks bite 2 teens in 1 hour at Oak Island, 3rd Shark attack in 3 days

I've seen people chumming off piers in MYRTLE BEACH. After seeing that there's no way I'd get in water even remotely close to a pier. I wouldn't go in past my waist period anyways. I love sharks but I respect them enough to know I could be dead in an instant. I feel sorry for the kids though. They honestly probably didn't know any better.

Sad. People need to be more educated about the ocean and its inhabitants. There is zero chance I would allow my kids to swim near any pier or bridge. Its not the fisherman attracting the sharks. Piers and bridges have pylons. Barnacles grow on pylons. Small fish pick on barnacles. Bigger fish eat small fish. Sharks eat bigger fish. 

Playing in the water near shore is pretty safe. But out under a bridge or pier? Ugh. Its a buffet.

People fish off piers- attracting sharks.

The fish cleaning tables on piers empty into the water below the pier- attracting sharks.

People on piers toss off old, used, small bait- attracting sharks

Usually, the biggest parking lot on the beach is nearest the pier- attracting idiots who want to beach next to the pier.....

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
