Will be interesting to see who they cast as Aragorn. Viggo is too old now

arizonacougarfan

They'll probably try to cast Timothee for another role he doesn't quite fit

Huge Manatee

Makes sense after the popular Gollum video game that released last year

Yes. Quarters of B12.

Softball is just seven innings right?

TempeCoug

Single elimination tournament ?

Not sure but believe so.

Soupie

"Cougar fans coming all the way from Provo!" Well, maybe SOME of them....

Hawk in the 303

Those comments always make me laugh. Maybe some parents/family but you know most are local.

Soupie

Nice catch and holding onto the ball despite running into the wall

Archaea

Heck of a catch & scary collision with the wall. Amazing she held on to the ball.

Nice little hit there

Nice baserunning.

At this point, given a choice, you take the highest level player at any position. Top 8 players now are balanced:

The reality of the sports world is

Carnac

Cleveland lost the Browns due to not paying.

AF_Puma

why people are so against pumping gas on the opposite side at Costco?

creameryon9th

11:09am

They're not sure it will work...but it will.

Plantagenet

11:10am

Agreed. I don't understand it, but I take full advantage of it.

dilbert

11:10am

90% of the time I am on the other side. Hoses are plenty long.

Hoopster

11:10am

Obviously it is because it's awkward (hose and handle).

Benfica1

11:12am

The risk of looking like an idiot is too high.

Corn

11:13am

I'll never pump on the other side. I've got 3 minutes.

shimmy

11:14am

Because it's literally against the law. Have you even read the Constitution?

RSL

11:15am

The Costco stalls are tight enough that someone pumping on the wrong side can

Mexicougazul

11:16am

It’s not THAT tight of a space. Are people really that bad of drivers?

coug719

11:17am

Just yesterday a dude in a truck couldn't wait and pumped from the wrong side.

Mexicougazul

11:20am

The locations I go to all have enough room for people to get through.

John Doe

11:23am

Yeah I've never seen a problem in dozens of Costco locations

RUNBYU1

11:49am

Why do people waste their time driving to Costco for gas?

WJCougar

11:17am

It's a block away from the next nearest station but has prices 30-40 cents cheaper.

byuluvr

11:19am

Yeah if it's close it makes total sense, around here in NV it's usually $0.50 cheaper than average so save $10 on 20 gal

dingus79

Of course, but the question is why people drive miles past four other gas

EEcougar

Tell me you have a car worth scratching without telling me

HoustonCougar

11:17am

Yeah... That isn't it

Cougar TD

11:18am

If you're scratching your car that's a you problem. It's not which pump you're using.

byuluvr

I love it. I never have to wait either. I just stretch it over the bed of my truck.

Taking an alternate path that Maverik set up for you is blazing your own path?

Correct side > incorrect side > waiting

Pro Logic

11:22am

More gas stations should have the hose long enough to pump on the other side

Skeptical Optimist

11:26am

That's one of the reasons I'm glad I drive a Subaru is that the gas tank fills

drbear

11:33am

Doesn’t make up for the other reason though

stoils

11:47am

I pulled into a Maverick the other day on the wrong side
