“Who is the best high school football player you’ve EVER seen?”
John Reeves. In the State high school semifinals in 1967. My dad took us down to watch this game. I was eleven. Reeves almost brought his Robinson Knights back against a much bigger and more talented team. Coral Gables team was like men against boys stuff. Reeves almost pulled it off anyway.
Go Bucs!

Oops Make that “Reaves”
I can’t believe I just did that!

American women cheat. Then divorce their man. Then take his kids. And get the house. And a monthly salary.
Every single American man needs a pre-nup
Stop marrying these narcissistic sadists!
It’s time for a Masculine Movement!
Study Schopenhauer, Carl Jung, Plato and Nietzsche and what they said about women.
Be careful fellas!

Don’t know about the need for a ‘Masculine Movement” but I do agree a “Homewrecker Law” whether is used by the hubby against the wife or the wife against the hubby are stupid.
Do these people have no pride. If my wife cheated on me I’d simply say “See ya”
I’ve never really understood jealousy since my high school days when I grew up.
If someone doesn’t want me I do not wish to have them either. I get ‘broken hearts” but deal with it.
Kind of like here where some people find my posts offensive or too long. I respect their opinion but I do not feel bound by ANYBODY else’s opinion. I’m not everybody’s cup of tea and I’m VERY comfortable with that.
May 2nd, 2025 at 6:51 am
stpetebucsfan, glad you feel that way and I reckon you won’t change a thing. Nice being comfortable ain’t it? teacherman, sorry if women have let you down. I remember when I was a young man a friend disappointed me in some way and I let loose on him. Then my dad caught wind of my disappointment. Told me if I lived long enough everyone in my life would let me down (disappoint me) in some way- friends, brothers, wife, kids. And if you shed them because of that you would be mighty lonely. Learn to forgive he said. He was right. But after 45 years I wouldn’t want to think of life without my wife and 4 sons and beautiful grandchildren. I think everybody has let me down a time or two. Bet I’ve let them down a time or two also. Forgiveness- ain’t nothing worthwhile easy.

To quote Three 6 Mafia:
“You leave your green around me, n-, yo’ green gon’ get lit up
You leave your drank around me, believe yo’ drank gon’ get drunk up
You leave your girl around me, if she bad, she gonna get stuck.”
If y’all took care of business, I’d be outta business.

I quit Sirius a few months ago. Kept ‘automatically’ renewing me with a price raise. When I called to cancel, I was offered all kinds of deals. Doing everything they could to keep me. I said please cancel it now and I’ll stay on the phone till I get an email confirming it. Spotify is just as good. I don’t even mind an ad once in a while for free streaming.

Ha!

Listen to Jessie Lee Peterson podcast. Amazzin.

Pretty one sided view there.. Women cheat , men cheat, while courts are still a thing and due process is still a possibility, things can be adjudicated in different ways, not always as you say.
Sorry your feelings have been hurt, but only weak men are afraid of strong women.
Try and move forward from 1865.

Garro:
Didn’t know John Reaves went to Robinson. Good stuff.
Joe has seen a lot of high school football over the years but never saw a guy that was dominant in the pros. Maybe best high school player Joe ever saw was that gambling FSU quarterback from Bradenton Southeast Adrian McPherson.
Saw that guy against Seminole in the playoffs and it was clear as day why he was a top-rated QB. Real shame what happened to him. Think he played some arena ball.
Remember Riley Cooper at Clearwater Central Catholic. He was like a man playing with boys.
Saw James Wilder, Jr. He shoulda been a linebacker.
Saw D’Qwell Jackson. Dude was a beast.
Watched from the sidelines as Mancel Carter (Notre Dame, USFL) and Bobby Johnson (Giants) clowned my high school teammates.
May 2nd, 2025 at 9:05 am
There is some truth to that. For both parties, not just the dude.
May 2nd, 2025 at 9:09 am
It’s funny how people think if you don’t kiss the ground a woman walks on that means you want to back to biblical times. Do people know there is a position between debasing yourself for a woman and wanting to own a woman? Debasing yourself doesn’t make you strong. It makes you weak.

It’s funny how many meatheads there are in the world.
Is it just a coincidence that low confidence, lonely incel men are in direct correlation to the rise of the Joe Rogan and Andrew Tates of the world ?
Add McAfee and his clown posse to the list of maroons.
May 2nd, 2025 at 10:28 am
So Joe Rogan is married and he’s an “incel?”
Pat McAfee last year had a kid and he’s an “incel?” That’s a nice trick. What did he use, artificial insemination?
May 2nd, 2025 at 10:39 am
Putting in my two cents on Shadeur Sanders…given the amount of hype during Colorado’s season last year, would it have been a legitimate concern for an NFL team and head coach to wonder, if I draft him who will he be listening to – me or his father?
May 2nd, 2025 at 10:41 am
I think a lot of you posters either live by the hand, or just have really ugly wives. That’s my take.
Shout out to ScottWurster
May 2nd, 2025 at 10:51 am
The message they put out attracts incels..
The fact that they are phonies in their shtick is on them.
MCAfee destroying a teenaged girl’s life over false rumors and innuendo just for giggles doesn’t bode well for his daughter.
Please tell me what Rogan has ever contributed to society? Just another clown who had a “reality” game show. Apparently that can get you the highest office in the land.. and/or a following of lonely wannabes.
May 2nd, 2025 at 11:08 am
Sit in the corner chair or you’re a meathead. I’ll be the meathead.
May 2nd, 2025 at 11:36 am
The Mississippi chick??? Oh please, he never said her name! How do you “ruin” anyone’s “life” if you never mention the name or specific job title/employer/business?
If anything, that girl did more damage to herself by going on TV and whining about it. Would have been forgotten by now.

Seriously? LOL Low confident, lonely incel men are a direct result of the left’s attack on masculinity and their elevation of pathetic beta males like O’Rourke and Tim Walz. The democrat party does not have a single alpha male amongst them unless you count AOC.
Rogan used to be one, as did many others, but they saw the crayon drawing on wall and left

Best high school football player I ever saw was:
Chris Collinsworth – QB, Titusville Astronaut
He played my high school in the playoffs and I think they won 21-0 and Collinsworth ran for three TDs. He was also the Florida 100 yard dash champion in high school track. Our boys just couldn’t catch him.
May 2nd, 2025 at 4:01 pm
Dang you guys are still crying about your fragile masculinity today too?
@David – you should educated yourself. Rogan got bought by Peter Thiel, that’s why he went from “nonpolitical” to parroting every single RW talking point imaginable.
It’s amazing watching how easily propaganda works on some of you.
May 2nd, 2025 at 4:05 pm
*educate

David
If you haven’t crow about being an “ alpha”
You ain’t one.
May 2nd, 2025 at 4:13 pm
Scissors:
Was Collinsworth a quarterback in an option/veere offense?
