Is there a huge "UT" fan around Charlotte?

I have a large "UT" mug that is beautiful. If you are willing to come pick it up, it's yours! :driving: (It's off white with a large orange "T" on it.) I would be leary of sending it through the mail.

Bottom of the mug reads, "University of Tennessee Studio Collection" THORUT002

"Hand made by Thor"

"Made in Knoxville"

It's stamped #"30/97"

uh, they are one in the same.

You think I would have learned my lesson last time, offering something free to people on here. I guess not.

We're just messing with you. I, for one, applaud your generosity. Keep doing what you're doing and know that we're just joking around; it's what we do here in The Lounge.

I can't even give away a new basketball! I saw 2 kids walking in my neighborhood and asked them if they would like a brand new basketball. Never even saw a court before. It says "NCAA Final Four from San Antonio" Don't remember the date. Pretty sure it's a Wilson. They said, "no thanks."

It's a brand new f'ing basketball and I can't give it away to a couple of kids. :rolleyes:

That's a shame.

Maybe there parents told them to be wary of strangers? I guess there's always Goodwill. I'm sure some kid will be happy to get it.

I had 4 of them. I gave 2 the the Boys/Girls Club of Meck County, 1 to Goodwill and kept 1. (Not sure why, I don't play.) Since I am moving, I don't need a tax deduction, so I figured I would give the stuff away on here. Less to move.

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
