So, I've probably been about 1 year past my tetanus shot due date. My mom keeps getting on me to go get one and for some reason I kept delaying, probably to save a buck or two.

Anyway, yesterday I go to take my boots off and feel a hard object outside of my boot. I look, and see...

A nail, missed my heel and went out the side. A very odd reminder for me to get my arse to the doctor. Getting my shot tomorrow. :willy_nilly:

Try shooting yourself in the hand with a nail gun. Happens a lot to carpenters/framers.

Just pull the nail out with pliers and go back to work.

True story... I was in the ER waiting room with my wife who was having kidney stones and a guy came in with a nail sticking all the way through his hand... It looked awesome, and he said it didn't hurt... Apparently it went through the ligament, as he couldn't bend the finger...

reminds me of when I was a kid playing around building tree forts. The pain of stepping on a nail, then knowing I had to pull my foot up again, knowing its going to hurt again...good times, good times.

been there done that... thankfully never had one go all the way through...

CoolPepper, you'd be surprised how easy a nail slides into shoe rubber...

I've seen 4 guys shoot themselves (including me) in the hand over the years just to pull out the nail and keep right on working. One guy shot his pointer & middle fingers together..:eek:

The only person to ever go to the ER was a guy who shot himself right above his knee cap.

    • In the same order I listed it. 1. Fix the talent evaluation 2. Use that better evaluation to build an NFL caliber roster 3. Continue to build depth and plan to replace key people as they age out and price out.    Those are the cornerstones of building long term success in terms of roster makeup. Even at times in our history when we got Step 1 correct and then did a decent job of Step 2, we have never been able to maintain Step 3 for various FO and coaching/on field reasons. This is essentially what Richardson was trying to do with the thought of emulating the Steelers. Our execution has just been horrible. And we don't need to hit HR after HR at any of those steps, we just need to get more right than wrong. And you need to get the critical elements correct(core players, coaches, etc). Once that starts to go sideways, the whole thing falls apart and we are back to the boom and bust cycle.   As far as what we as fans can do? Nothing but watch. We the franchise, well they already think they are doing these things. I heartily disagree so we will see what happens.
    • I really liked XL.  But I'm not expecting much from him this year given he is paired with Bryce.  I just think for XL to shine with his talents.....he needs a downfield gambler.  I think Brooks will slowly be brought along and we don't see his debut until in season.     That's our top 3 rounds...and really where you would be looking for rookie impact.  Rest should more than likely be developmental and have minimal impact.  So I expect fans to get down on our draft picks early.  I think the G play could get praise but C being such a wildcard (as well as Canales' run game) has that as not the lock I think some have it has.  Plus, I think Bryce simply can make the OL look bad given his size the problem he has in so many traditional settings/placement in the pocket. 
    • Okay so when is that changing? How does it change, and how do we operate in the meantime?
