That was me my first time with shine. The old school kind not this flavored stuff. 

My first experience with shine was from a jar alleged to brewed by Popcorn Sutton. I wouldn't be able to tell you, it tasted like turpentine. I had a jar of white lightning from the Popcorn Sutton Distillery from just before it closed. Tasted about the same. Either one would send your head into a whirlwind.

The good stuff is smooth as water and as dangerous as lightning. You only remember the first sip.

We had a bottle of apple pie whiskey a few months ago. Tasted just like apple pie, so smooth and tasty you would swear it was out of your grandma's oven. The hangover the next day, not so smooth. Worth every damn penny we paid for it. That was some good shine.

I had no provenance on my sampling. But there were many OG types in attendance and it was the real deal. Long before TV shows about it, pie flavors, all that stuff. 
It was potent. And smooth which is why I was able to down enough to do that with. Everclear is just fire next to that, on your tongue. You could sip this stuff. They didn’t tell me what it was, just handed me the bottle and I didn’t sip. 

Ever heard of an annual thing call the Good Time Boogie which was a NC based weekend long party? I suppose you might call them a red neck slash hippie crowd at the time.  I was at the first two. 
I moved away but heard years later that it had rolled on for a pretty long time so maybe some people know about it. This was like, 1975 probably. I was but a young pup, up for about anything. It was like a mini redneck woodstock. The rednecks brought the shine. Multiple hogs were cooked. Much depravity. Which I was too young and innocent for. 
And all peaceful despite all that alcohol. Try that today.

I just remember the Popcorn Sutton name from my first jar because it was such an out of the normal name. A friend of mine bought me the most recent jar on a trip to Nashville. 

I'm not picky either, it just has to be really good. I've got a local shiner I buy from now when he's brewing. 

I haven't heard of the Good Time Boogie but I've been to similar. Something about good pig pickin, good liquor, and just some good Ole boys and girls having a good time I really miss. And I think much depravity might be an understatement.

I was a little out of my element with that shine but I still remember the flavor. It was smooth. Like Snow described it.

Young and stupid and they handed it to me and I turned it up without asking questions.

The questions came after I woke up😂

You never drink corn liquor. You sip it. I've seen many a rookie think they can handle a big drink and end up face down in the dirt 30 minutes later.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      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.
