So is this the greatest song in country music history or what?

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.

      TE group

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I mean we had more of a defensive need in the 2025 draft than we may in the 2026 draft(so far). But we took a TE. We did it in the 5th round. Also he has overwhelmingly been our best TE to date. He and the FA pickup. I think you just have an extremely skewed view of TE's in the NFL. I would implore you to take a look at some draft history, depth charts and career progressions of a lot of those players. You are going to see ample examples of lower round guys being drafted and then immediately starting at TE. The reason it isn't rare is that there aren't many TE's taken in the 1st at all.  It's the same with other positions. You think that it's impossible to find a C outside the 1st? Well....most of them aren't 1st rounders because they rarely get taken there. How about OG? The NFL is mostly non-1st round OG's and the elite tier is almost all not former 1st round OG's. How about RB's? Pretty similar right? That's not just numbers, it's positional value historically. High value positions litter the first round. It's always been that way.

      The "mob" was into a lot of things back in the day. They were fixing fights mostly but branched out into illegal gambling and booze during prohibition. Points shaving was mostly attributed to the coaches or players themselves but I'm sure the mob had a hand in it themselves. But they were making more money in the drug market than they could with gambling by the 1980s and gambling was getting legalized.

      Didn’t the canes beat the Stars both times last year and once the year before?  We kinda own them.
