MOLESKIN:
Humid gloom today. Only one pup today who did surprisingly well. A bandana was left in the car of a clown when it would’ve been quite nice. YHC brought wayyy too heavy of a ruck sack so AlrightAlright and Ina took some turns which was appreciated and likely saved YHC from future back surgery. Very pleasant morning overall hanging out and getting some light work in.

Special Sauce prayed us out. Thankful for 🇺🇸 and our freedom, safe holiday week for everyone.

MOLESKIN:
The 13 down and back stripes ended up being way more difficult than anticipated. PAQ agreed if it were to be repeated again, each length of the run should count as one stripe. Had some great Remember the Titans movie quotes going during the “stars” portion. Thanks to AlrightAlright for misguiding us when looking for a set of stairs, should’ve listened to Teasip . Pepper was not a fan of the rotating flutter kicks, he appreciates the purity of the standard flutter.

Quick CoT as we almost forgot. Teasip prayed us out.

MOLESKIN:
Some grumbling at the number of merkins for the merkin suicide (that wasn’t as bad as AlrightAlright expected), but overall not much mumble chatter this morning. There was some grumbling about the choice of burpees for DORA, but overall a quiet morning, as there was a lot of moseying and not a lot of stationary time for mumble chatter

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

MOLESKIN:
Low turnout this morning for what was truly some pretty great weather all things considered. The Q was quite sluggish after being out for 2 weeks due to a week-long #circumsack and vacation. We were joined by an FNG (Taylor Maloney) that YHC has the pleasure of working with at Baylor. He is an Aggie and was given the nickname of Belk Bowl. You can figure out who came up with that one. After being named after maybe the least sexy bowl game of all time, hopefully he’ll come back.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
INSERT

MOLESKIN:
Coach K sent a late night text requesting a substitute Q because Teasip peer pressured him into going out, but we rallied through. More to follow.

Early comment from AlrightAlright about a shortage of PAX, and I think I’ve officially fallen to the ranks of scaring people off with my oh so charming personality. Fortunately my feelings regenerate at the twice the speed of a normal man, so we powered on.

Our story really begins at AA’s suggestion of: “I’ve always wanted to crawl bear that library staircase.” Coach K was curious as well, and so I gave a brief disclaimer before all the PAX managed to ascend the 3-story staircase. It was agreed that it was the worst thing we’ve ever done prompting the “it seemed like a good idea at the time”, which seems to be a common theme in F3.

Lots of subsequent mumblechatter about the NBA draft, which honestly I didn’t keep up with until someone made a dig at UNC. Subtle reminder that UNC has the most Round 1 draft picks of all time instigating a strong debate about the scandal. AA said he was a strong supporter of Oregon State baseball despite them pitching a convicted child molester…minor details.

6 PAX made it to Bubba’s where the fun continued…Isaiah eagerly awaiting the arrival of baby Isaiah. Podcast is starting his new job next week with the Rangers, so any complaints/suggestions can now be directed at him. YHC got some digits last night with strong wingman support from Teasip, the true 2nd F champion. Talked a while about AlrightAlright vocal chords and dance moves. He admitted to splitting his pants at a wedding from going too hard, which is next level intensity. Mentioned how weird it was for AA to have such a deep singing voice while YHC has a much higher range. Wrapped up the discourse debating whether Kelly Clarkson or Carrie Underwood was more successful after their American Idol runs.
