What are your phobias, hangups or quirks?

Was reading about this in another message board and it's amazing how some strange things people could be afraid of/unwilling to do.

 

Mine has to be getting blood taken. I don't mind shots as long as it is not in the middle of my arm, but every time they have to take blood, I hate they choose the vein RIGHT WHERE I BEND MY ARM. 

 

What about you? Any strange fears, phobias or quirks you have?

bees turn me into a fuging two-year-old

 

 

Same here.  I was at an Atlanta Braves game with my dad and brother when I was like 7-8.  My brother threw a grasshopper down the back of my shirt and told me it was a wasp.  You would have thought my clothes burst into flames with the running, screaming and pulling my clothes off all at the same time.

 

When I was around 18 I was on a golf course and took a swig of Mountain Dew and there was a yellow jacket in it.  It got half way down my throat and then stung me 2-3 times.  My brother (nice guy that he is) informed me my throat might swell up and then I would be unable to breathe.  Well that sent me into a panic and was rushed to the ER.  Doctor gave me some shots to prevent swelling and told me most likely I would have been OK without them but if I had a reaction to the sting I may have very well suffocated.

 

I haven't been stung since.  fug bees.

whenever I have to go take a crap at work, i go try and find an empty bathroom. If the first bathroom I go to has someone in it also taking a dump, I will keep moving on until i find one that is empty or go to the least populated one....

 

I guess that's kind of strange....I just like taking my crap's in peace

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.

      Scourton may not get double digit sacks, but he won't be a liability on every other down
