I see what you mean. This is good stuff.

We've picked up another member in Garrett's league and it looks promising that more are on the way so hop in here if you haven't joined yet. In the meantime I'm picking this thread to make a major NASCAR announcement that is bound to shake up the sport and make big headlines tomorrow. (in my dreams) Starting right now, I am now officially a Dale Jr fan. I know, I know, Garrett's probably saying, is this guy serious? He goes through favorite drivers like Sheriff Coltrane goes though cars. Let me explain. I'm a pretty loyal guy. The Pirates and Steelers have been my favorite teams since the 60s (before the Steelers had even won their first Super Bowl). My favorite show since 1979 has been the Dukes of Hazzard. I still live in the same rural neighborhood I'v lived in since birth. Yep, I stick with things. That's why I'm embarressed to have switched drivers like I have. The last two years I've followed David Ragen since he's a north Georgia boy but he's going to struggle again this year to finish above 30th every race so I'm going to make the season more interesting and hop on the Dale Jr bandwagon...after all he is a redneck at heart. Take note people, the first year I was a Jimmie Johnson fan he won it all. So if Dale Jr wins it all this year I get some of the credit. I still like David Ragen though! Of course if Cale Yarborough still raced I never would be having this loyalty problem. He'll always be my all-time favorite.

The Sweeter Side of High Rankings! Congratulations to everybody involved in making that awesome flick! Thanks for telling us about this MM. I have a big smile on my face now thinking about that sheriff turned baker fella.

Boss had his poker face on. The entire time Aussler was talked he sat expressionless and taking occasional puffs on his cigar. Smoke was starting to settle near the ceiling and slowly work its way out the top of the screen door. He spoke with confidence and authority. "Now see here Mr. Aussler, I don't give a pitooootuutee about these here silly pictures. I've already explained to the attempted murder suspect....and now suspect on about a dozen other charges after today....that the law works different in Hazzard County. You see court trials have juries. Juries are made up of people. Those people, by law have to be from around these here parts. We don't import them from the big city. People around these here parts live in houses with mortgages....mortgages gotten at the only bank around...and that bank's president, vice-president, CEO and supreme financial executive officer is ME...JD Hogg. You can't possibly think they're going to give up their house because they want to see your client run around in circles with a bunch of other cars trying to catch him, now do ya? But on the other hand, I'm a reasonable man." Boss paused to look over the paperwork a second time. Rosco tried to look over his shoulder but Boss backed him away by pushing his forehead. Minutes passed that seemed much longer. Boss continued, "I gotta tell you Mr Aussler, eveything seems to be in order. I'm hungry and not in the mood for negotiating. I just want this to be over with. But there is one more thing. I want this to be a three car race. No, not me, my sheriff in his patrol car....well, I suppose he's going to have to use his duputy's car since his is temporarily unavailable." Rosco couldn't hold back his excitement "Khee, Khee, my mama's gonna see me race Jeff Gordon. I love it. I love it!" Boss growled at Rosco "Hush!"

Garrett is right. This is super easy. A lot of folks here know how bad I am with computers but yahoo fantasy sports is even easy for an old timer like me. You do need a yahoo e-mail address to sign up. A lot of people (like me) don't use their yahoo e-mail since they already had a different e-mail account before beginning fantasy sports but I'm pretty sure it's still required. Also, I think Garrett is permitting anybody to join the league so you can write down the info and pass it on to anybody who is a NASCAR and/or fantasy sports fan. Start your engines!..... next month.

We've been pretty competitive against each other for about three years now. I suppose it's because we've been doing fantasy sports together for that long. Agreeing with you is boring....besides, I think folks here like seeing us fight. Hazzard folks are a competitive bunch you know.

That stinks Hoss. Hallmark is still running this movie a lot today too. I'm not sure how long they'll continue though. Hey MM do you know anything about my last sentence from two posts ago?

We already have a winner of the Super Bowl Contest two weeks before it's going to be played. (We're way ahead of our time here on the HazzardNet) The original pickes were.... Meadowmufn....Seahawks over Broncos Roger.....Falcons over Texans Garrett....49ers over Broncos Since the 49ers are the only team left I declare Garrett the winner... Now on to the next contest....pick the Super Bowl winner between the 49ers and Ravens (obviousely there might be more than one winner) You didn't have to play in the first contest to play in this one. I want both teams to lose but since that can't happen I'm picking the Ravens.

Rosco skidded the Cougar to a stop in front of the Duke farm. The cloud of dust didn't stop so quickly. It continued on past the car toward a nearby pile of hay. Rosco and Boss got out and looked around. From his moonshining days Boss always made a habit of looking around to see if there was any trouble to be found. He looked toward the barn and saw Jesse looking out with only his shoulders and head visible while he leaned over to get a view. Jesse sneered with disgust at Boss and then turned around and went out of sight back into the barn. Boss took a puff of his long fat cigar, exhaled and walked over to Rosco instructing him on what to do. "Nothing! Do you hear that Rosco?! You say absolutely nothing in this here meeting. Not a sentence, not a word, letter, peep, sneeze, cough or sniffle. Nothing!" Rosco shook his head yes in compliance and Boss walked in first with his sheriff close behind. Boss took his hat off, hung it on a hook beside Jesse's red hat and Bo's Jeff Gordon hat. He then took another puff, looked at Gordon then Thom Aussler. Boss stuck his bottom lip out and nodded. "Gentlemen. I certainly hope we can settle this matter once and for all to everybody's satisfaction." He and Rosco sat down at the negotiating table.

Shucks....hey, check out the PM I just sent you.

After trailing 0-17 the 49ers went on a 28-7 run. Pretty impressive. I'm not very happy. If the Ravens beat the Patriots I won't even watch the Super Bowl since I'd want both teams to lose and it wouldn't be any fun for me. I just might watch 4 episodes of Dukes instead.

ditto!

Awesome movie!!!!!!!!!! I know what you're thinking, Roger Duke only thinks it was awesome because of the Dukes connection but that's not true at all. I really loved it and thought that the writing, directing and acting were all first rate. I enjoyed every minute of it! But of course the Dukes connections were awesome. Yes, Redneck Girl, I did see the Bo Duke poster in her room. It was hard to miss. I could also make out John Schneider's autograph. Since that was her room when she was younger I assume she was a Bo fan. Imagine that.......Sheriff Rosco's daughter being in love with a Duke boy! How scandelous! I also enjoyed hearing Rosco say "I love it. I love it!" and "Good grief!" The first happened when he was playing poker on the sidewalk and the second was later in the movie when they were also on the sidewalk. I was wondering if Jimmie's real life daughter had a cameo appearence. I see her name listed on the credits (writing and directing I believe) but I thought I saw a customer in the bakery that looked like it might be her.

After jumping off to a 17-0 lead, the Falcons are settling for a 24-14 lead at halftime.

Clem Smethfield spoke up because he knew what was going to hit him. "You aint taking my car Rosco. Not without me." Rosco "Sure Clem, you can come along." Boss "Rosco, you idiot. Didn't you hear that Aussler feller say the deal's off if we bring anybody. Now hop in." Clem stood by the drivers door. "Oh no you don't" Boss "Now listen here Clem. Your poor widowed mother-in-law is two months behind on her mortgage. Now you wouldn't want me to foreclose would you?" Clem "That would mean she'd move in with me!" Boss "Sure would." Clem "You wouldn't" Rosco "He would." Clem moved out of the way letting Rosco and Boss get in the Cougar. Hughie moved over to the car. "Um, Uncle Boss, what about me and my friends. None of these vehicles are driveable." Boss "Well, they're in the medical profession ain't they? They should know walking's good for you. Get started." Rosco put the Cougar in gear and threw dust and gravel on Hughie and his friends as he accelerated. Hughie coughed. His fake doctor commented "That cough sounds pretty bad." Hughie "It's just from the dust, I ain't sick doc.....what am I saying. You're not a real doctor. You're a scam artist just like your fake nurse." He responded. "It takes one to know one Hughie." Rosco fishtailed the Cougar around the first curve and smiled at how well it handled. "Khee Khee. Hey Boss, the only thing in Hazzard County that's going faster than this vehicle is your brain trying to figure out what to say at the meeting."

Thanks to you Hoss there's a lot of things related to the Dukes of Hazzard that I've never seen before and now I can add another to the list. This is the first time I've ever seen an older picture of Peggy. Thanks so much for sharing it. I sure miss her. What a beautiful lady Peggy (and Lulu) was!

I have it recorded on the DVR so I'll check it out Sunday. I did sneak and watch the last five minutes. Shucks, now I know how it ends but I just couldn't resist. Rosco looked great! What an amazing actor. It was so great to see him!
