Hey Redneck!  A "buddy" of mine went fishing last week....caught a 650lb blue fin tuna.  108" long.  (I actually saw a picture of it on the dock....with him in the picture)  I don't really know if that's big or small or average or what, but bigger than anything I ever caught.


It's been said I have some tuna steaks coming my way.  He was 1 of 5 guys on the boat...and his family won't eat it :huh: so he said he had more than he know what to do with.


I said BRING IT REDNECK!

tuna cooks quicker than most other fish, be careful, it’s easy to fuck it up

He said he had his cut into 1" steaks, and it was yummy.  He grilled his, which I what I plan to do.


It will be frozen. (The fish, not the grill)  :wackysmile:   I'll will thaw in fridge overnight then it's Grill time.


I'm open to any recipes or pointers.

   He didn't have alot of time or space. I think that goal is on Vanacek.
  And Alan May agrees with me.

   Who do you blame on that goal? think 4 guys chased the puck to our right side.
Carlson should have been on the boards and Dillon probably should have shifted over to narrow the gap between defensemen. So I'd say one of the forwards should have taken the guy.

Post by: richkrt99 on Wednesday March 10, 2021, 10:27:43 AM Eastern
Wow...what a performance.  That third got ugly quickly.


three blaring mistakes (among many) should have cost them the game.


-Vitek gave them one with that "play" behind the net.
-Groot gave them one with...whatever the hell he was doing way off to the outside giving the guy the middle for a 2 on 1.
-Dillon gave them one...whatever he was doing crossing way over to the opposite side and giving the RW a free pass to the net.


Vitek struggled.  He looked okay in the first, but he was definitely shaky in the third.  He was a bit out of position several times and I saw him loose his stick at least 3 times.  Not sure what was going on with him.


And fucking Orlov looked like the occasional dipshit Orlov of old....turning the puck over on bonehead plays in the D zone...


Kuzy and Jake are dazzling with their skills but they are an outright defensive deficit.  If Vranna isn't on a breakaway he has no clue what to do in either zone.  Even in the o-zone  he is standing around waiting for shit to happen....which makes him worthless on the PP as many have said.  I like the kid and he's got some of the best jump in the game, but man he needs a bit more dimension if he is going to make it.
Kuzy has been "off" for a while now.  Somebody really needs to find him a head shrinker.


What bothered me most is...well one of the things OTHER than giving up a 3 goal lead is....by midway in the third, the Caps were playing for a tie and everyone seemed okay with that.
They stole a point in OT - nice pass by Kuzy and great jets and hands by Jake, but damn...we lose the opening draw and we basically watch the Devils skate with the puck the whole time.


Im okay with trying to WIN in OT by putting o guys out there, but if they lose the draw.....its spectating.

 :huh:


A few years ago my son got in school suspension for necking in middle school...


I got the email and part of me (the redneck dude part) was like way to go kid, and then the other (dad) part of me was like WTF?


Turns out "necking" these days means something entirely different....You walk up behind (one of your buddies) and smack him on the back of the neck trying to leave a hand print.
Apparently my son did it adequately cause you could still see the hand print 15 minutes later when they were both in the principal's office.


Thankfully he didn't make a finger gun and point it at his friend and say "gotcha".  That would have got him expelled.

And...


Vranna had the most dour face of anyone I've ever seen score an OT winner.


If you don't like the doghouse kid....stay the fuck out of it.  :raspberry:
