And I came on here expecting mjp38 to give us a new recipe for a super duper gameday chocolate malt shake. What a downer!!?
Hmmmmm, I could probably do that. They have some super high power chocolate protein shakes here but they taste like crap.
And I'm mjp28, also mjp.38 is my cousin but he's in jail for using his .38.

Guess I should have said mjp.357 then.??

That'll work. But I do like my old .38 revolver as dependable and reliable as an old dog.

An old dog for an old dog. Makes sense. I have an old .357 3 screw single action Ruger. A lot more valuable now than when I bought it as a young pup. Can't say the same for the owner however. Where'd I leave those reading glasses dammit??

Old .357 prices are insane I only wish I had bought a few .357 Pythons when I had a chance.....back when.
And speaking of insane and not to stray too far off of the Richard Sherman Insanity stunt of the year, well you know this will be a humourous story for a long time.

Those white guys look all the same to him. Easy mistake.?
And before the bigot police try to make something of this, I'm 1/4 Spanish according to DNA results. My people have been here since 1492. ??

No, maybe you should read. I never said Hue himself had anything to do with it. From what I heard/read, the reporter is close with Hue, so that COULD have been a reason the reporter ran with the story without verifying it.
Ok neither hue Jackson nor his relationships had anything to do with this story being published. All you have to do is look around all news stories not just sports. It's all about getting the story out as quickly as possible. You get a quote that going to get eyeballs you run the story before anyone else breaks it. Not saying its right but its common practice in the media right now with a majority of journalists. So mike Silver's relationship (if he has one I'll just take your word for it) with hue Jackson had nothing to do with him publishing a story. Baker moves the needle. Look at colin cowherd or rex Ryan. These guys aren't criticizing Baker because they're close to hue. They do it because Baker is a polarizing figure and if they offer a take its going to get eyeballs.

You obviously aren't getting the point. There are MANY things that are told to reporters that don't come out.
Case in point Andrew Luck. Everyone was shocked. But Jay Glazer kind of knew before hand.
Again Richard Sherman was wrong, 100%. But if you think that history/personal relationships/etc couldn't have factored in then I dunno what to tell you. I haven't said that IT WAS the reason, just that it COULD have contributed. I have no reason to go against reporters wanting to get it out quickly, but that doesn't apply here. Silver is the one that Sherman told, so there was nobody to compete with.
And you using the happens all the time, etc. Yep it does, but there are different sectors who will report things differently because of their relationships, affiliation, etc.
Again the Hue thing is just what I read. If true, Baker put Hue in a bad situation. As a friend, Silver thought he had ammunition to make Baker look bad. Do you think he would have been as quick to release something negative about Hue (or anyone else he has a relationship with)? Or would Cowherd be quick to release something negative about Sam Darnold? Or how about Rex releasing something about Rob? Or Skip Bayless about anything Cowboys or Tom Brady

Oy!! I just looked up the price on that 6" blue python I used to own. Guess my brother made out quite well on that trade. He had a mountain bike he wasn't riding, and I was too lazy to clean the python after shooting it. So we swapped. Yup super accurate. I had a friend shoot offhand a 4" pattern at 25 yards.

Oh yes! Back when guns were guns with walnut handles and the whole 9 yards. Now they're made of plastic and look like a cheap kids toy....... just sayin'.
(oh what was the going price......if you could find one)

Ok I had to take a trip down memory lane on this one:
What makes this classic revolver the “queen” of a collection?
- The Colt Python was released in 1955 and is consider by many the best gun made by the company.
- The revolver was built on the Colt I-frame, also known as the “old .41 frame.”
- In the Python’s early years it ran a mere $125.
- Presently, it’s not unusual for the .357 Magnum to demand $3,000 to $4,000.......I've heard some are even more!
- What makes the Colt Python desirable is its tight tolerances, hand-fitting and hand-polishing.
- The revolver was produced up to 1996 and by special order until 2005.

Don't remember, but I think I paid around $300 for it from a gun dealer second hand- like new. Previously owned by a Dayton police officer who had slicked up the action. Talk about a hair trigger when you cocked it. Only added the red ramp sights, and swapped out the rubber duty handle for walnut.
A quick Google showed an identical python offered for $3,200. That mountain bike I got in exchange is still worth around $300 bucks. Oh well, it was a fair trade- at the time. If I only knew.... I'll have to tell my brother to have it insured. He also has possession of my Dad's Model 12 Winchester. Straight production run, but I checked it out, and custom versions are going for the high side of $10,000. I gave up hunting long ago, I'm not going to kill it if I'm not going to eat it.

$3,200 if only we knew! I had a real gun nut buddy I went to college and worked down the mill with. He offered to sell me all kinds of his extra or unwanted guns, Colt.357, 22 ga,, .410, all kinds including a beautiful Spanish double barreled 12 ga shotgun......oh my.
I also had a friend who collected some Colt Pythons better than money in the bank.
I could have bought a S&W Model 29 in the wooden show case before Dirty Harry came out for $200, thought it might be hot so I passed.......duh.

My Original Ruger .357 has the walnut handles and came with a very minimal pull trigger which makes it a great shooter because every time it fires it's always a surprise. If your trigger finger just itches, it fires. LOL. I also got good advice from an expert who does a lot on youtube. Ruger came out with a free safety transfer bar installment because if you keep a bullet in the chamber under the hammer, a drop could cause firing. He advised me just to keep that chamber empty (which I was already doing), because the 3 screw original Ruger Blackhawk is worth a lot more in original condition. And it is without a doubt the most accurate revolver I have ever fired. Now I have a Ruger .22 pistol with a 4X scope on it that is even more accurate, but it's my "cheater" pistol. LOL!?

You do have to be careful though. True hospital story, one guy almost died when his dog jumped on him, gun went off, and it severed his femoral artery.

I don't keep loaded guns around my cats or my grandkids. And those little yappy dogs are good only for moving target practice.?

Speaking of cats, Norman has turned into a Himalayan Herding Cat. Guides me downstairs every morning to give him some kitty treats before I grab the newspaper. Also somehow knows when it's 10AM and time for Dad to wake up. Even being retired, I still live on a second shift schedule.

Because your grandkids like to shoot cats? As much as I hate cats I could never shoot one, but someone's got to do it.
They're pure evil.
Cats are murderers. Animals kill because they need to eat...except for the cat. Only the cat kills for fun. A cat is infatuated by watching their victims wriggle in pain as they torture their mouse or bird to death, then will drop their lifeless trophy at your doorstep, or even drag it in the house.
Cats are the pet of choice for witches and villains. Unlike a dog, a cat will never look you in the eye. A good dog wants to serve you, whereas a cat expects to be served. A dog greets you with joy every time you come home. A cat thinks it owns the place.
You probably think your cat rubs up against you because you think it loves you and is displaying affection. Wrong, it's marking it's territory. It thinks it owns you, and it does cause you're dumb. It rubs itself against sofas and chairs as well, so to a cat you are the equivalent of a couch or a chair.
You are it's servant whether you think so or not.
