Gotta admit, though I listen to a lot of poo, country is not my forte.  I remember when this song came out though.  It was fuging huge.  And me at that point not being a country music fan took notice.  At that time this came out I was more into Megadeth, Slayer, Suicidal Tendancies, etc.  I only heard this song through a friend of mine and it hooked me instantly.  Probably because it's so easy to relate to.  Since then I've listened to a lot of country.  Not enough that I would call myself a country music fan but enough to say that I knew something about country.  Since that time I've not heard a country song that has hooked me like this one.  But that could be because I just haven't heard that song before....I don't know.

While I love the 90s era country by the likes of Garth, George and Tracy, this is nowhere close to the best country song ever.  This isn't even Garth's best song.  See:  The Red Strokes or Lonesome Dove.  For my money, Keith Whitley was top notch.  He had it all.

I'm not even close to a country fan but i have an acquired taste.

I like 70s and 80s country but not 90s. Like a handful of 50s and 60s.

New stuff i dig The Wailing Jennys and Alison Krause and my man Darius Rucker.  My Rucker and Krause channels on Pandora has opened my ears to some other artists that are good.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
