Well, they are losing right now.... I think its about as low as management can go when they let it out that either the coach wins the game or he is fired and replace by Parcells......will end my "fanship" of the Bucs if they do.....Dungy stopped the Bucs from being the laughing stock of the NFL.  Never liked Parcells much...reminds me of a mean old gym teacher....

I'm glad they lost.  That means we get to beat up on Philadelphia after our bye week instead of facing Green Bay.

 

I'd like to see St. Louis knock them around a little and then if they should get by, we both have a weeks play under so we're back in the groove too.

Keyshawn ought to be ashamed of the remarks he made re Dungy.  Sure he loves Parcells and would love to play under him again, but what a jerk to badmouth Dungy.  I thought Sapp needed to shut up, but Johnson really made an @ss of himself yesterday -

I believe Keyshawn's remarks were geared towards Sapp and others not Dungy.  He said even if he is the coach he needs to get players that will play for him not just run their mouths.  I read in other places the rest of these remarks, and he was talking about all the talk the players say about how they're gonna do this and that and never do.

 

 

I like Dungy and Parcells.  Maybe this was the best for Dungy anyway.  Now he can get a fresh start somewhere else and show them they should've kept him.

I think that would be kind of cool.  They give Dungy the boot and Tampa Bay goes back to their loosing ways.  Not that I really have any reason to want that to happen, but it always kind of irks me when these NFL teams fire good coachs for no reason.

 

Speaking of coach's getting fired, what about Marty and the Redskins.  That seems like a really messed up situation as well.....

I took Johnsons remarks as more badmouthing the other players not Dungy..maybe I was wrong.  Am a Redskins fan, never a Marty Sch. fan though.  I am glad to see Spurrier coming.

For $25 million I bet Spurrier's glad to be coming in too!  A NFL washout, now the highest paid coach in the league that he's never coached a game in.  Unbelievable -  :sneek:

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      In their own words:    https://blog.amsoil.com/how-engine-sludge-forms-and-how-to-prevent-it-2/   [Quote] Synthetic Oil Helps Prevent Sludge Fortunately, sludge and varnish deposits are something that can be controlled. Using thermally stable synthetic base oils reduces the rate of degradation (oxidation).   Antioxidant additives further help reduce the rate of degradation. One of the most widely used is zinc dithiophosphate. Not only is it an excellent oxidation inhibitor, but it is also an outstanding anti-wear additive.   High-Quality Additives Fight Sludge Fortunately, it is possible to address many of the issues that occur after the initial oxidation stage. Additives, such as detergents and dispersants, help promote the suspension of contaminants within the oil and keep them from agglomerating.   Detergents, which are also alkaline in nature, assist in neutralizing acids generated in the sludge-building process. Antioxidant, dispersant and detergent additives are consumed during use.   To achieve maximum life expectancy, use a motor oil with high concentrations of antioxidant, dispersant and detergent additives.  [End Quote]   So quality base oil and then the last sentence above. TBN and ZDP levels matter. The one thing not covered was sufficient viscosity. Sad.     And yet we now have since API SN lower amount of them all with the only real change being a slight up tick in base oil selection. Along with lower concentrations of everything that makes oil work and lower and lower viscosity there is still an insistence on longer OCI's.    How low does the peanut butter and jelly level have to get before we say it's just white bread folded?    The new smoke and mirror treatment is the 'additives are INVISIBLE' to UOA testing with a health dose of TRUST ME.    I'm not picking on AMSOIL. This is coming from all of them. Every last one of them that abandon the low wear model in favor of the high mpg/EPA compliance model.

      First off use it in the way you’re more comfortable. In working in off road situations most of my life I used 4WD low range very little. In most cases when equipped I used auto 4WD. If I wanted maximum control going up and down very steep terrain  I used low range. Especially if I was driving a diesel. Same with very rutted terrain. In very muddy or snowy conditions I wanted momentum so high range worked well for that. With gravel ramps with limited traction I would try high range first. I would want smooth even increasing speed if I was fighting traction. Low range could give you too much to the wheels breaking traction trying to move.

      Having owned 4wd vehicle since the 1970s I find there are varying opinions on how to use 4wd, every owner is an expert in their minds.  IMO, 4LO is the appropriate gear and what I would use,  You have to feather the gas to avoid spinning tires and the lower the gear the better chance.  But like I said you will find those that think their method is best.  I live near a boat launch.  Yesterday there was a new Ford Maverick pulling out a pontoon boat almost 2x its size, they had no problems and they don't have a LO range.   True story. One winter day not long ago I was coming out of small town post office and there was a F150 4wd parked in front and was stuck foot deep snow ruts. I knew the lady so I asked her to put it in 4wd (wondering why in the middle of a 2-day snow storm she wasn't).  Her reply surprised me, "my husband" (the expert) told me not use that because it uses too much gas. She finally got unstuck spinning in 2wd which likely used more gas than not.

      Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.

      The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts.
