If it was not Myrtle Beach I would say this was fake....

My wife and I married in Oct 99. Just weeks before I was to deploy to Saudi Arabia for 6 months. So we decided to do the honeymoon thing after I came home. I booked everything from Saudi. Short stop in Baltimore (stayed with my brother a couple days), then an overnight in Charleston WVa, on to Nashville for 2 weeks, and then the last week at Myrtle Beach, SC.

When I booked the hotel, the owner made it VERY clear that we were requesting a room during "Bike Week". Hell, NO PROBLEM! The wife and I both ride. We like the same music. We both have our share of tattoos. We'd fit right in, right? Hmmm... WRONG.

As we're approaching Myrtle Beach, we see this HUGE orange (very light skinned black) ass in a thong hanging off the back of a crotch rocket. It wasn't until we were right next to the bike that we could see the driver, a very small and skinny black man. My wife's comment was "If this is bike week, shouldn't they be going the other direction?" I laughed, but she was right. Bike Week isn't exactly the place that black bikers want to hang out.

ANYWAY, it didn't take long for us to discover the real truth. This wasn't "Bike Week", that happened 2 weeks earlier. This was "Black Bike Week". So here we were, the only 2 white people in the entire hotel. Hell, we think we were the only 2 whites for a block in either direction! We were never, not one time, harrassed or threatened by anyone, don't get me wrong. Everyone we met was friendly and polite to us. We had a wonderful time during the day. But at night? Holy hell !! The MUSIC until 9am. Bass that would shake the entire hotel. Squealing tires and races on the main drag. Breaking bottles. Fights. More LOUD MUSIC. Screaming, shouting, yelling fightingfugingracingpolicesirensambulances STOP! And there was so much refer smoked outside the hotel we could smell it in our room which was away from the parking lot (not that THAT really bothered me much).

Well, we late at night from Nashville. Didn't sleep that night. Spent 2 more days there and left in the middle of the 3rd night. 3 days early with no refund. We drove for 50 miles and slept for 6 hours at a rest stop in our rental car.

The maid came in twice all week, and the second time she asked my wife for a beer. We locked our valuables in the car after that.

:lol:

Hey you folks out there are just plain spoiled. Here in the LA area, they charge extra for that kind of service. Besides, who wouldn't enjoy a beer during work?

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
