I'll be honest, that's the hardest part to wrap my mind around since Google Maps is such a normal part of modern life. I remember the early internet days and printing off directions from MapQuest and all that, but the idea of using a physical map to get where you're going just seems nuts having come up in the Internet age.

We had a book called Mapsco for city navigation.

How old are you?
 
I personally hate relying only on GPS. It's not like it's flawless, first of all. But mostly, I like to have an overall picture in my head of my general route, which streets I'm looking for, etc. Simply taking orders from a computer isn't my way.

Plus when it does frick up, if you don't have a general idea in your head of where you're going, then you can be really lost.

I stand corrected. I remember my father bitching that AAA took you onto major interstates without regards to time. Yet to this day, the man will not use GPS.
 
Y'all got to watch this Deep Blue documentary.

It is excellent, even though some of the imagery is disturbing.

The Manziel part was pretty damning.

I am being serious. Watch this shit. I have read all about how Goof Son saved things.

I had read stuff, but when you see Goof Son and the creepy long haired draft guy (Chris Hall) tell the story it was bad.

Jones initially said turn the card in for Martin, then had a senior moment in the last 30 seconds on the clock, seemed to get emotional and almost pulled the trigger.
 
Now they are showing the 2008 draft.

There is Garrett, with his hair as fucking fiery red as I can remember, waxing poetically about the virtues of Felix Jones and Rashard Mendenhall. "Felix compliments our guy really well (Barber)."

WRONG YOU RED HEADED FUCK

I definitely will, but I may have to watch this Utah-Florida game tonight.

Did you mean he almost pulled the trigger for Manziel?
