What is the most stupid, dangerous thing you have ever done?

We've all probably done some stupid stuff in the past. I jumped off an 80 foot cliff into a lake, and to get you had to get a good jump to clear some somewhat shallow water we didn't want to chance. To get some speed you had to take your life jacket off. Well when I jumped I didn't want to get overzealous and put my weight too far forward, but I ended up leaning a bit too far back. I got out far enough, but landed awkward and took the brunt of it on my heels, the back of my legs, and my ass. A Jet of water tried to violate me. I was fine, just somewhat bruised, but still to this day I get angry at myself for doing it, because I immediately realized that one slip could have meant death even at that height. A broken leg or blackout in a lake is a recipe for drowning.

When I was 10 I also rollerbladed into the deep end of the pool and almost drowned, so I guess water has been trying to reclaim me for awhile.

You?

oh man. i got tons. just one quick one.

once right out of high school i worked in the awesome rent to own biz. i was driving this big cube truck with my typical hangover. it was getting slightly warmer in the truck and as the day went on so i wanted to take off my jacket.

but who has time to pull over and take off their jacket? so i take it off WHILE driving. lo and behold my right arm jacket gets stuck around the seat belt and im having to drive this big truck with my left arm and my knee.

I finally had to coast to a level place and come to a stop to remove said jacket.

Definitely driving... one time leaving the high school parking lot with my buddy Terry behind me, we turned out onto the two lane highway into the oncoming traffic lane, and accelerated up to around 100MPH and drove about 2 miles that way passing everything from log trucks to school buses... there was a curve and a bridge in there along the way. If someone had pulled out to pass or pretty much anything we would have both been killed I'm sure.

At a party we rolled the largest blunt any of us had ever seen, there was 1.5 oz of weed in that thing. It was fat.

We had a 4 foot glass bong there and when the blunt got too small to hold onto I decided I was going to put it in the bowl of the bong, milk the poo out of it, and clear it. Bad idea, you smokers know why.

I cleared it, but I'm pretty sure I collapsed a lung if not both. I could barely breathe for about 10 minutes until someone brought me an inhaler. That's the most stoned I've ever been.

Also, ran across a 20 foot wide mud pit, didn't make it, then sunk, had to be rescued.

Once put every type of combustible material I could find in a bucket and set it on fire.

Burned down a treehouse, but not the tree somehow.

      Yeah I was crying about this earlier in the year when we got to 6 wins. Equal number to Wilks.  We are still a QB away.

      The Hall of Fame case for two different NFC South quarterbacks

      By Verge · Posted

      Hey y'all, a topic that has been on my mind has always been the parallels between two of the best quarterbacks in the history of the NFC South and ultimately their place in history and how they are viewed moving forward through the rest of NFL history. These two quarterbacks as you might have guessed are their respective franchises greatest signal callers, Cam Newton and Matt Ryan.  Cam Newton (144 Games Started): 269 TDs (1.8 per contest), 123 INTs, Super Bowl Appearance, OROTY, MVP  Matt Ryan (234 Games Starter):  394 TDs (1.6 per contest), 183 INTs, Super Bowl Appearance, OROTY, MVP  Obviously on first glance, these are very similar players with identical top accomplishments. Let's zoom in a little bit on their surrounding talent. C Cam Newton top offensive producers:  Greg Olsen (TE) (9 Seasons) (3 Pro Bowls) Steve Smith Sr. (WR) (3 Seasons) (1 Pro Bowl) Matt Ryan top offensive producers:  Julio Jones (WR) (10 Seasons) (7 Pro Bowls)  Roddy White (WR) (8 Seasons) (4 Pro Bowls)  Tony Gonzalez (TE) (5 Seasons) (4 Pro Bowls)  Wow, quite the difference here. Through Cam's career his top option was Greg Olsen, who was one of the best tight ends of his generation and a real difference maker in an offense reliant on their quarterback making plays outside of structure. Newton post Steve Smith Sr was saddled with a revolving door of Chicken McNobodies at the receiver position and the offense had to be funneled through the tight end and running attack as Jericho Cotchery, Corey Brown, Jason Avant, Kelvin Benjamin, etc was not getting the job done. Ryan on the other hand was consistently surrounded with top level offensive weapons, including one of the best receivers and tight ends in the history of the game, thanks in part to an aggressive general manager who wanted to ensure they could maximize the arm talent of their franchise quarterback.  How about protection?  Cam Newton top offensive lineman: Jordan Gross (3 Seasons) (1 Pro Bowl)  Ryan Kalil (8 Seasons) (2 Pro Bowls) Andrew Norwell (4 Seasons)  Trai Turner (6 Seasons) (5 Pro Bowls) Matt Ryan top offensive lineman:  Jake Matthews (8 Seasons) (1 Pro Bowl)  Alex Mack (5 Seasons) (3 Pro Bowls)  Andy Levitre (3 Seasons)  Todd McLure (5 Seasons)  While Matt Ryan certainly had more consistency and high level talent on his offensive line, one could argue they had similar protection through the bulk of their career. Though one has to acknowledge some of the absolute dog water lineman that were trot out to protect Newton at his tackle spots post Jordan Gross retirement. Byron Bell, Mike Remmers, Matt Kalil, Chris Clark, Amini Silatolu, Nate Chandler, etc were all a collective pile of garbage save for two seasons from Remmers and a few splashes of brilliance from Michael Oher, Daryl Williams, and early career Taylor Moton.  Defense should be fairly simple.  Cam Newton defense average rank:  17th/32 Matt Ryan defense average rank:  18th/32  Honestly I was a bit surprised by this, I had thought Cam consistently had the better defenses, but when you look at the average it's shockingly close. While Newton did have the higher peaks of defense, Atlanta placed higher more consistently and only really faltered towards the end of Ryan's career. Both these players had on and off again defenses to rely on.  So what does all this mean?  1. I am bored at work  2. Cam Newton has the better body of work given the talent around him  While I am not sure either is necessarily a lock to get a gold jacket, it's undeniable that Newton carried his franchise on his back for the better part of his career and changed how quarterbacks are viewed as a whole. Newton became the blueprint for a new breed of signal caller, and Ryan is the standard that is set for pocket quarterbacks in the modern league. Both players deserve their kudos for what they did for their franchises and how they morphed their team's identity, but Newton I think was clearly the better of the NFC South quarterbacks, especially if he had remained as healthy as Ryan did.

      100% agree, trading him would be the best possible scenario. It allows for a clean start at QB and you get something back.
