A coworker set me up with their niece. It was the last day of work before our offices closed for Christmas, and my coworker said "I really want you to meet my niece." I said "Sure, give her my email and phone number, I'm always up for meeting new people." I didn't think the girl would call - after all, I probably wouldn't call some random girl that my aunt tried to set me up with. So I go home to Raleigh for Christmas (I live in Atlanta), and I'm talking with my aunt. She happens to be a house mother at a sorority at UGA. She's asking me about my love life, and I'm telling her that I've basically just been dating but haven't been back in a relationship since splitting up with my ex about eight months ago. For whatever reason I told her that a coworker was trying to set me up with her niece, and I remembered the coworker telling me that her niece had been in a sorority at UGA. So I told my aunt the girl's name and my aunt says "I know her. She was a member of the sorority that I'm a house mother for!"

I get an email from this girl the next day that says "So, this is me writing you the 'my aunt wants to set me up with you' email." It was a hilarious and cute email, so I called her the next day on my ride back to Atlanta. We went on our first date a few days later, and the rest is history. That was three and a half years ago.

To this day we still joke about the fact that I knew her aunt and she knew my aunt before we even met. I think we're the only ones that find that interesting.

Yeah.

was on the west coast with a bunch of my buddies on a motorcycle trip. We were all on the beach playing volleyball, which seems to be a common thread here today, and two chicks asked if they could join so of course we said yes. We started talking/flirting and 17 years later, here we still are.

PS...happy now Boo and Boo's secretary?

Oh no... don't post in here party pooper.

She probably just liked you because you are 8' tall and were playing volleyball.

when I first met my wife, it was 9 months before we started dating.

She was dating some loser in Greensboro, who probably posts here. After they broke up, he kept calling her crying and wanting her back, even for a couple of months after we had started dating.

dated her niece first, then in true jerry springer form i dumped the niece and married the aunt. 14 years later, i guess it was a good call. her niece is still a lil hottie tho, but she's cheated on the husband many times.

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

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

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
