This could be fun. What’s everyone doing App State related while under quarantine?

I have watched the UNC & USC games. I’ve watched this years New Orleans Bowl & the SunBelt Championship. All great games.

Just busted out the 2007 National Championship against Delaware. I was a senior at App that year. That game was an absolute blast. We flattened Flacco all night and dominated those cocky Blue Hens. App Nation took over Chattanooga each year, but that game we TOOK OVER, and packed that stadium to the gills. What a night!

PS: Anyone else remember the Delaware player scoring that last TD in garbage time? He tried to throw the ball in the crowd at the App fans and accidentally hit a cop. That cop came unglued and could have killed him. :lol: :lol:


Stay Safe & GO APPS!!

Every Saturday at 3:30 I watch a game from last season. I've seen ETSU & Charlotte. I think I'm going to tailgate before the Carolina game this Saturday. I'm betting it'll be a great game and I have a good feeling about it.

I am new to the board. I have been getting house and yard projects completed. Also been watching lots of youtube videos on building, farming, woodworking, off-griding. If you are into those things here are a few that I think are pretty good: Wild and Wonderful Off-Grid (wife loves this one also and they have 100 or more videos most are less than 20 mins and men you will like this one, you will know what I mean once you watch), Rainfall Project, My Self Reliance, Millenial Farmer, 10th Generation Dairyman, Outdoors with the Morgans, EngelsCoachShop, and Mat and Savanna Shaw are just a few. IMO, some of these are much better than the crap on TV. Enjoy.

My wife and I have watched the first nine episodes of season 3, last episode tonight. You never know what to expect, the characters roles keep changing with the weather.

Today is day 21 for us. Friday the 13th was the day I was told to go home and work from here until further notice, so we holed up after that. I still spend my days in front of my computer, but at least I don't have to commute. In a way, I wish all of this meant some free time for house projects, yard work, woodworking, etc., but keeping the bills paid is more important.

The current projections for NC show it peaking at the end of April and needing most of May to really go away, so I'm trying to mentally prepare for the fact that we're going to spend 60+ days hiding out at home before it's all said and done. I anticipated the run on food and supplies just before it actually happened, so we're reasonably well-stocked. That being said, I initially figured this would be an issue for 2-3 weeks, not 2-3 months, so there are some things we still have to plan ahead for so that we don't run out.

The hardest part has been keeping our toddler sane. We also think she's on her way to an asthma diagnosis because she was constantly getting sick before we started her on medicine, so we're completely paranoid about exposure. We do curbside pickup and delivery to avoid going into stores, rarely see people (and keep our distance when we do), and leave a lot of things in the garage for a few days before bringing them into the house.

We're trying to find a lighthearted show to watch after the kids are asleep. Something that lets us forget the world around us for an hour or two. We've already been through the latest seasons of The Kominksy Method and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Now we're rewatching Parks and Rec, but would rather have something new. On the subject of woodworking shows, I like The Wood Whisperer. I started from the beginning on Amazon Prime, but I'm pretty sure it's on YouTube as well.

Just make sure your wrestler doesn't inadvertently change his weight class! :D

I’m still working from my home office fundraising and working with volunteers remotely. I’ve set up an archery range in the backyard, made a new bow string for my recurve and have been trying to not loose too many arrows in the woods.

I have no problem staying busy, my schedule has not changed. I am a paramedic and our call volume has definitely not gone down. Trying to stay healthy cause I have an 8 year old with CP which keeps me busy on my off days. My ex is a firefighter so she is on the front lines as well. Honestly, we could use a prayer or two because it's going to be a challenge to keep my boy well. Keep your distance folks and wash your hands. Go Apps!!

Glad I learned about Ozark from this board. Very entertaining show. When we lived in the Atlanta area we used to take our boat out on that lake where the show is filmed (filmed in Georgia...mostly outside ATL).

If you have Amazon Prime, I have found two really good shows to watch. Bosch and Jack Ryan. I enjoy Tom Clancy and was skeptical of John Krasinski as Jack Ryan, but he hit it out of the park.
