Mrs. Wheeler randomly becoming a hero and carrying around an oxygen tank on the off chance there is a commercial dryer to throw it in to blow up demo dogs bothered me more, lol.

I can guarantee you when this show premiered it had no intention of become a cheesy LGBT CW show but that's what it became


Unless Noah Schnapp was an obviously gay 9-10 year old when season 1 was being written/developed, there is no way this could have been the envisioned plot.

This is where I'm at with the show, lol.

I hit this same point in Game of Thrones when I was rooting for Ramsay.

I had Mahomes with Goff as a solid backup. Until he failed me last night


Same exact siuation that I was in.

I guess I could have considered Shough, Cousins, or Young, but, statistically, Goff was a top 5 fantasy QB.
Helluva time for Goff to have his worst game of the season.

Richt was loyal to the programs that hired him.


Richt's first head coaching job was at a top 3 job, lol.

Of course, he was loyal.

This is WAY overblown. Was Kiffin just supposed to stay a coordinator forever and not seek better opportunities like every other coach (and person in the real world)?

Tennessee & USC should be career destinations, and yet he's always one foot out the door. After all, the *next* place he goes will be the one where he puts it all together.


Tennessee and USC are not the same, historically, nor did Kiffin have the connection to Tennessee like he did USC.

I don't get all of the hate Kiffin gets for job hopping. Most of his jumps were a natural progression and the only poorly handled one was Tennessee.

USC Assistant - 6 years - left to be NFL head coach

Raiders Head Coach - 2 years - fired (not his choice)

Tennessee Head Coach - 1 year - left for better job
USC Head Coach - 4 years - fired (not his choice)

Alabama Assistant - 3 years - left to be head coach again

FAU Head Coach - 3 years - left for better job
Ole Miss Head Coach - 6 years - left for better job

Billy won his last game at ULL therefore he should’ve been successful at UF right?

That’s the logic being presented here.


I think the logic being presented is that Tulane was non-competitive and blown out twice by the same Ole Miss team.

Tulane did not look any better the 2nd time vs Ole Miss than the 1st time, and that leads to coaching/scheme questions.

My oldest daughter is 8, so I am bracing for the potential of this being the last few days of Christmas magic for her, but have 2 more after her to keep it going.

I'm hoping I can get one more year out of my oldest, but know it's a big possibility of her finding out in 4th grade as a 9 year old.

I remember starting to question Santa at 6 years old when I found a Home Alone 2 talkboy under some blankets in my parents' room that went on to be a gift from Santa a few weeks later, but I convinced myself to keep believing for another year or 2 after that.

However, this is year two of not doing it, and I now miss those Christmases when my kids were younger, and Christmas was truly magical.


This is why I don't complain about doing it.

You only get a small Christmas magic window with each kid from about 2 years old to 9 and then it's gone forever.

I can spare a few minutes a night to move an elf. The internet makes it easy for ideas, too.

There are weight classes for a reason.

Jake Paul thinking he could fight a legit heavyweight was insane.

It all makes sense now.

Joshua called out Tyson Fury.

If that happens, Jake Paul fights Tommy Fury on the undercard.

Boxing did this to boxing.

What I am hoping that comes from all of this Jake Paul nonsense is that the best boxers will start fighting each other in their primes.

Les would have never missed a 12 team playoff


Well, this just isn't true, but he would have made it as often than not.

Early Les was great, but he was falling off big time by the end of his tenure.

Les would have made 12 team playoff in:
2005
2006
2007
2010
2011
2012

Les would have missed 12 team playoff in:
2008
2009
2013
2014
2015
2016

Ngannou was bigger more experienced and far more battle tested than Paul is.


Ngannou may have been bigger, but I wouldn't say he was more experienced or battle tested in a boxing ring than Paul.

Jake Paul has a lot of hate, but he's at least been training in boxing pretty much non-stop for last 3 or so years.

Texas A&M generated the most total alcohol revenue at home games during August, September and October, according to reporting by Matt Brown of the Extra Points newsletter.


A&M - 5 home games
LSU - 5 home games

This doesn't appear to be much of a flex and seems like A&M is price gouging its fans.

LSU sold 40,280 more units than A&M.

Wait, this really happened? I did not know this. We were supposed to go last year, but then a conflict came up that forced me to miss. I was incredibly bummed to not see him


Yeah, his mom was in an ATV accident and he had to cancel either the day of or the day before, I can't remember.
It's so the athletes can play school during finals week.
