    Sometimes you spot something good.

    But other times you spot something very bad not good.

    My coilovers need a bit of love... can anyone kinda close to the south bay / peninsula with a non-lethal spring compressor help me swap rod ends and #700 springs on some Kings in the next few days? @MJonaGS32 maybe? Thanks!

    (Yes, I'm gonna make some spacers for the bump stops too, which should help...)

    I'm looking for someone who can do a cab mount chop in the North Bay. My only contact is busy for the next few weeks and I'm trying to go wheeling before then. Let me know if you have a recommendation.

    Yaz blasts one into the water for a grand slam-Kayak dude (who was robbed earlier) gets the game winning ball and Arizona has victory ripped from its hands!

    Oh yeah. The G's chip away one here and there and the GS makes it 9-8.

    Thats awesome! My boy didn't play baseball this year because of all the covid fuckery rules, however the year before they had him pitch quite a few games and it definitely makes you feel like a proud Dad when your boy is up on the mound during a game.

    Been watching some pitching and batting videos to try and better understand the progression. It used to be kids were slow to get better. But the last two or three years, younger kids are looking like MLB pitchers and hitters. Seriously. Youth baseball has really gotten a lot better. I just hope it's not at the expense of injury later on.

    Some flags and center console divider... lots of things on the wanted list.
    Mine starts football camp on Monday. I am excited to see what he can do in a sport he only played a little. Once I figure out what position they want him, I will be doing the same. Day in-day out work on things like that.

    I can't teach soccer (which he loves) for shit. BUT, they want him to move up next year. He scored a header goal in YMCA and they didn't count it for being "too advanced." Way to hold kids back..

    hell yea it has. They are scouting these boys at a young age. I caught him doing a stupid side arm pitch that his buddy does. I was pissed. Told him he will blow out his shoulder if keeps that crap up. yea, I'm that dad..lol

    Tackle? in Woodland I assume? JR Patriots?

    My dad wanted Izzy to play soccer. My old man was a badass at the game (and still is at age 61). I know he hates that I never followed suit.... I preferred to bob and weave. lol

    I always said that I would beat my dad at a foot race. It still has not happened and probably never will. Grandpa is quick.

    Jr. Cardinals, and tackle. Positions at 8 years old are kind of difficult to start, except for maybe QB. You know who can read a room and throw a ball by that age. The rest of the intangibles don't really start to progress for a few years.

    He does love soccer, and AYSO is his next step there in the spring. Can't bring myself to paying club prices and potentially never see field time.

    You won't find deals on Sthil. It's in their contract. However, if you go into the local place, they might take care of you. Oh. Ask if the purchase of a gallon can of gas still gets you 2 years extra warranty.
