From the sounds of it , wanting big guys to come in and replacing the O-line, the 2012 F-B line men need help.

Nah, we had gotten used to having some big kids on the line for all those years with Brito and Spencer. Last year, our line was smaller than it has been in the past. This year, we will have those bigger players like in the past. I'd take tough linemen any day over big ones though.

Big guys dont mean crap unless you are quick and can stay on your block or make a great trap.

Big guys dont mean crap unless you are quick and can stay on your block or make a great trap. A few years ago when calhoun played A hUGe Flower power team, those huge lineman didnt equal quality lineman. Atleast not in that game. If you dont have tough bigmen , then id rather have small,quick lineman with a chip on there shoulders

So the Hornets can dance... Who cares ? It's an old joke about transfers in that has gone on for years. JD just got the jump on the usual suspects. The 2013 models are being delivered in June. We'll know our situation then.

We would have known we needed a different QB than the one we started. The undersized crabbies exposed our big linemen though.

Amen Brother!!! GP is going to convert about 1/2 of our bus fleet to CNG. Still use diesels for the road trips, but use CNG for the local in town busses. burns cleaner & is cheaper, allthough you do give up some power.

ONCE, three years ago the crabbie patties did win a game against a down year Flour Bluff team by two whole touchdowns. Be our guest, chew that cud a few more years.

As long as they have enough power to climb the Harbor Bridge! I agree, bring on the CNG. Hopefully the traditioal fueling stations we go to know for gasoline will start installing CNG stations. You have to make it easilty available for people to adapt. That's why Ethanol 85 has failed and thankfully it has because corn should be used for food and other goods and not heavily subsidized either.

That's why Ethanol 85 has failed and thankfully it has because corn should be used for food and other goods and not heavily subsidized either. Many many years ago, like in the 70's a friend of mine ran his pickup truck on CNG. He fueled it from a tank in his backyard, which also supplied his house. His truck also ran on gasoline, and if he was pulling a trailer or had a load in his truck he would just switch it to run on gas. The tank did take up some of his bed, about what a tool box takes. He did save money on gas. I wonder if the technology has improved any since then, making it easier to fuel, and to convert a gas engine to CNG? If the infrastruxture for fueling were in place, I would not mind switching over.
