Chad's adventures of shaving, officiating, and life

Fun camp!

Stop slashing your wife’s tires with old razor blades! Just kidding. That stinks, that tire appears to still be in pretty decent condition otherwise, lots of tread left. ?

I've had a great time thus far. 2 more days to go. And yes I was pretty upset about the tire. It only had 8k miles on it. The guy I sent her to in order to get the tire fixed is a very close family friend. If he says it couldn't safely be patched... I trust him.

Yea, my understanding is that if something gets stuck out by the walls of the tire, there’s no safe way to fix it. Better safe!

Well had a great shave this morning. The Big Ben blade continues to impress. I used the Pantie Dropper today as I'm thinking about making this the next every other day victim. But this is her earlier formula so not sure, as it's not as good. Oh well I'll decide soon enough.

Up and early today to get to film session. Really enjoying this camp. Lots of talk about GM 1 of the NBA playoffs and some of the calls. I do tend to try and stick up for officials but after watching the film the NBA refs get I think I have a different opinion on some of those calls.

Anyways I'm way behind on journals. Maybe I'll try and catch up.

Have a good Friday Cadre.
 
Wow, what an experience Chad. Enjoy. Sorry Megan had the tire troubles. Just tell her to look at the bright side, these things only happen when you are away!
 
Good stuff Chad. I was always curious about the scent of MLS Pantie Dropper, but it was discontinued before I'd even heard of it. The description gave me a laugh though.
 
Sounds like the clinic/camp is going great, Chad!

IRT the tire...I'm just glad she didn't have a blow out while at speed. Thank goodness for small miraces!
 
I was actually going to ask you about these NBA games. We didn’t want any regular season and I’m really surprised to see how physical they can be away from the ball. I’ve seen people almost wrestling each other for position and a lot of pushing and pulling. What point does it have to get to for there to be a foul. Seems like I’m watching the line of scrimmage instead of basketball.

This ain't nuthin' compared to the game a few years back. Remember Bill Laimbeer with the Pistons when they won the championship in '89 and '90?
 
Glad you are having fun Chad. Have a great weekend!

Thanks Don

Now she won't let me leave lol

Thanks Eric. It is a nice scent.

Good Stuff Chad, is that U so you know you are in Utah???

Oh Dave. You just have to go to a grocery store on a Sunday to know that

Thanks Josh and I agree

Well let me just say the consensus at the camp is they have been very loose with the whistle in this series. Each player is allowed a basketball position and that right there is one determination when calling a foul. Who was in a legal basketball position?

Glad you are having fun. Have a great weekend.
Thanks Doug

Well all I'm home and time for some shut eye. I'm worn out and exhausted. But had a great game that we can discuss

I remember it! I was a huge Pistons fan in my High School years and going against the grain...Bill Laimbeer was my guy! Those were the great days of the NBA when the Pistons and the Bulls were ALWAYS in the Eastern Division Finals. And yes...those were some very physical games!

Roger that, Don!
 
Welcome back. Glad you are feeling better and you had a great time. Looking forward to the story.
 
Catching up from being way behind Chad!

Getting Connor to brush is a great habit to get him into!

Praying for Sadie!

Great reads and shaves! Glad to hear the clinic went well!
 
Well everyone I am officially back. I didn't post my saturday shave but it did happen. IT was the same as Friday.

I will post a shave and video tomorrow of that shave. The ramblings will most likely include some basketball stories.
