I love AFT! Ranger, Jungle Recon, and all the characters are priceless. And I also agree that Stars Earn Stripes is one of the most fucktarded shows that Nothing But Crap has come up with.
I have to agree.... this show suck way bad. I like that they're raising money for some good causes, but I felt like it was the biggest waste of two hours of my life. Leave it to NBC to come up with a show that suck so bad. I just hope the Operators get paid really well for wasting their time babysitting a bunch of Hollywood retards.
And, the review by this Ranger guy is way too damn funny. I've got to check out the rest of his videos.
Agree with this analysis. I loved every sentence of this review! "Holy monkey shit with whipped cream and sprinkles" and "Turd sandwich,hold the bread."
That story idea was the worst I've ever heard of. Whoever came up with it should be fired. or sent on a real mission -- unarmed. The very idea seemed so disrespectful and humiliating for all involved.
you guys see the clip for next weeks episode? looks like nick quits, hes like theres no way in hell im doing that! haha

There's too much funny to pick a single quote. But Terry Crews being legally retarded and Chris Kyle getting hit on by Dean Cain are great.

I had never even heard of AFT but now I subscribe to their YouTube channel. "Holy monkey shit with whipped cream and sprinkles" that was funny! Brandon, fist bump dude... That has created positive chaos here at work, my battery on my phone is dying because people keep wanting me to play it for them. LOL "Dude, can I see the crazy GI Joe video?" Yep, visit SOFREP.com... See what I did right there? If you don't get more hits/members by the end of the day, I'm gonna be pissed. Have a good one!
@HugeFan Look for and watch the Best Buy UFC incident, its five minutes long but its the best one by far.

That's a great way to start my day! Glad for the review because there was no way I would watch the ads for such excrement, let alone the show. (reinforcing negative stereotypes ... learn to swim ... Rangers owe me a MF'ing monitor)

Should have known this would be down right hilarious! Nearly crashed on the way to work listening while driving! Definitely not office material but well worth listening to. Hopefully, the ATF stuff will continue on with other topics!

Brandon, my brotha,
How about a little heads up next time? That is definitely not okay for the cubicle....
I'm the rough-around-the-edges dude in the office--not necessarily the one to impress the posh client--but this one pushed even that!
Steve out!

Be careful, there, PH, or our Ranger brother will get a web page like another "Jack":
Jack Bauer is the leading cause of death in Middle Eastern men.
Vin Diesel can be rearranged to say "I end lives." Jack Bauer can be rearranged to say "Jack Bauer," which means the same thing.
When life hands Jack Bauer Lemons, he kills Terrorists. Jack Bauer hates lemonade.

@PONI @SeanGH @MedicSteve2 There's a shirt from First Spear that has Col Beckwith's quote on the back: "I'd rather go upriver with 7 studs than 100 shitheads."
Wear that into Whole Foods once a month just for the entertainment value.

@SeanGH @MedicSteve2 I came in on an off day one time with a Glock shirt on. She said, "Oh your one of 'THOSE' people." My reply was, "Ma'am, you're in Alabama, everyone with any sense owns a gun. Plus, you work for one of the biggest DoD contractors in the country. And have you seen my office? I'm a damn Marine!" She ain't really been friendly since then...but after that weekend I had a plate full of brownies on my desk from another like minded lady down the hall. lol
Fuck their sensibilities. They can do their thing, and I'll do mine.

Way OT post: bear with me. Little background, I'm an AF desk jockey. Did a little stuff, nothing important. Knew a couple TACP guys, a PJ. Other than that I ate cheetos and watched football.
Now that that's out of the way: since I met Brandon, Jack, and through them some others, I've done a gut check, and realized that all the things I thought were cool and spiffy (side note: I saw a FB post of the defensive line of my Steelers eating at some shithole like in-n-out burger today and it made me fucking sick.... you fat out of shape fuckers eat like that 4 weeks before an op... er.... the opening game? WTF is wrong with you???). I was WRONG. The new appreciation for our SF/SoF crews I've gained is immeasurable, and, as a guy, I can't just sit back and let them be the cool kids on the block.
I've made a lot of changes none of you want to hear about, but the whole point is: SOFREP has made this little chairforce commando into a slightly more motivated chairforce commando. To the point the woman said "these are bigger... you've been working out?" heh.
I used to worship pro athletes like every other kid but after 10 months of exposure to real heroes.... well... the wife asked again: "season starts in like 5 weeks, aren't you excited?" (I've been a rabid football fan since I was 7)... I said... "sure... I guess."
You get my drift. Sorry to take up your time,but just needed to give credit where it's due.

@Tango9 Yeah buddy, blown out shoulder and all I've been trying to get more aggressive in my PT. I'm up to 200 flutter kicks and I've started to notice my gut is receeding! : ) I think the articles from Clinton Emerson have gotten my attention the most. Besides I want to get into better shape so when I do get to spend some money next spring on training I'll be able to keep up.
@Old PH2 The medics here have done a great job and I've readjusted my 3 kits (car, house, backup) based in large part on their inputs, noting that just having a band-aid doesn't mean you know how to use a band-aid I'm going to attend an EMT course this fall.
The down side is you bastards have cost me a fortune!

@Tango9 You know, I've really not spent that much. I'm tight on cash like anyone with young kids. For the most part I have many of the books we talk about already, the shooting I do anyway. My wife and I do a mild Martial Arts/ yoga thing. And we regularly play two on two soccer, helps keep my Cardio up. I get First responder Training through work along with regular weapons quals. I do notice myself being "ON" more than before. Things can't sneak up on me, and I'm spending even more time talking to my little girls. Hell this site is making me want to be a better DAD, husband, and citizen.

@ColonelProp @Old @Tango9 Close to 5 years now my wife has me doing a modified yoga routine in the AM. Otherwise my bum hip and wonky shoulder wouldn't get through the day. I'm still about 8-10 lbs over my ideal weight but for a 49yr old I look fairly fit.
