Driving?

I drive a fuel truck but I have my phone set up to voice text,still has some kinks in it though

generally with a smartphone you can say the word 'period' and it will end the sentence. like 'i really enjoy peanut butter sandwiches period.' wlll break the sentence in text. good luck.

Thank you I will try that.I would always say dot again thanx

Yeah, let's think of some other ways to help him text while he's driving a fuel truck.

Another childhood memory: one time, my uncle was driving a fuel truck on a state highway, and two elderly ladies ran a red light perpendicular to him. He was unable to stop, ran over the top of their car, killing them both instantly. His truck flipped and caught on fire. Both doors were jammed by the roll, but he was able to kick his windshield out and escape before the cab was fully engulfed. Despite serious burns over 70% of his body, he survived to tell me about how he could see their brains on the windshield. To a seven year old, this is distinctly not like winning the lottery.

...I hear we drafted some Greek kid. Is he any good?

Wow sorry to hear that what a memory that must be.

GA/Middleton 50/50 split is ideal. I don't ever root for injury, but can I root for a slow recovery?

I know 90% of this board wants the bucks to tank n what better than playing a kid who most people say is at least 2 years away from being ready n a guy from Detroit who might b nothing more than crappy,n a injured oldish fino.I get it but guys like me who don't wanna tank can't stomach seeing those 3 guys man the 3 spot,if that's the case I would rather have moute n daniels.

You are ill-informed. Or in your vernacular: U r dumm.

Pleasd tell me led what part of what I wrote am I ill-formed on the part that giannis by most experts is at least 2 years away if that from being ready,that middleton could be nothing more than a throw in in the jennings dea,or that fino is a 30 plus year old player who is injured.
I wanna know what I'm ill-formed about or as you say it I'm dumm.Your telling me that these 3 bring more to the table than our walking dead duo of moute and Daniels last year

Easy -- you said that you prefer Moute and Daniels to Middleton and Giannis. Strong evidence I say...

I'd rather watch young talent grow than watch old talent die. Wouldn't you?

I never said I would rather watch moute n daniels I'm saying that we buck fans might b overvaluating middleton ,giannis I look forward to seeing play but I don't think IMO that Middleton and fino and giannis is that much of an improvement if any over what they had there last year.

Rather then what? Being the 8-10th worst team in the league?

We are young and not very good (for now) with financial responsibility. Either through intent or blunder we've had the best offseason we've had in years.

I agree with you on that now the proverbial cherry on top would be if the bucks can bring in either turner or young to play the 3 with giannis backing him up.Then I would give this off-season a B

Didn't Giannis go work out w/ Tim Grover recently? Was there anything said about how he performed?

Tim Grgurich, there wasn't any information published that I'm aware about his performance.

But John Henson was there again(after doing it as a rookie with D Lamb), he tweeted about it at the time.

Gianni's older brother Thanasis was simultaneously in Florida at the IMG Academy working out.

[LUKE23]

Hammond was on WSSP last Friday. Henson and Giannis both played in Grgurich's camp, there were about 65 players there. Hammond said Henson was the best player there. He also said they plan on having Giannis with the big league club all year, maybe one or two minor stints in the D-League if it presents itself.
