Do you have anything from your younger days that you wish you had kept?

When I was 13 my little brother Brandon destroyed my Barry Sanders hat that I always wore and ripped one of my Barry Sanders cover magazines. I threw them both in the trash I was so upset and my dad made me keep the magazine saying I'd regret throwing it away. I actually wish I had kept the hat too.

I wish I would have kept my weight down.

Probably my Fender guitar. I had a cherry red Fender that I was not very good on. My parents bought it for me in the last 60's. Mom sold it at a garage sale in the late 70's or early 80's. In the last 10 years I have had 5 people make me an offer of several thousand for it sight unseen. Mom sold it for fifty or a hundred dollars she doesn't remember.

I think it looked like the red one in the center of the photo.

I had this huge box of baseball cards - well over a thousand of them. When I went in the army in 1970, my parents sold them cheap in a garage sale. I had a Henry Aaron rookie card, Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays those 1954 cards that looked like TVs, A couple of Ted Williams in the '50s. I can't really blame my parents, I guess, as that was before anybody knew baseball cards were worth keeping.

Back in the late 60's-early 70's during the off season Packer players used to play benefit basketball games around the state against local coaches (My dad happened to be one.)* After the games the players would stick around an give autographs to everyone who wanted one. Wish I would have hung onto those!!!!!

* I just realized, my dad played ball against the Packers!!!! LOL

beast (12h) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (12h) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (17h) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (17h) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (18h) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (18h) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (18h) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (22h) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (22h) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

wpr (7-Aug) : seems faster. yay

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Wife of reason posted on the in/out thread on fleaflicker that both she and vor are in

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : This page was generated in 0.135 seconds.

Mucky Tundra (7-Aug) : Tbh, I can never tell the difference in speed unless it's completely shitting the bed

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Sure does feel like site is more snappy

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : watch it!! lol

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : you're right, we never did leave, the site just went down :P

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Rock claims to have never eaten a cheese curd

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : We did not leave.

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin
