They are obviously made overseas. I was in Omaha and a guy had a baseball jersey that looked legit. Said it was $20. They probably won't have the championship stuff but for baseball jerseys that the team wears, they are legit. Full disclosure, I have never bought anything. Just passing on what a guy in Omaha told me.

Didn't read the whole thread but I have 4 kids aged 30-23. It's never about the big things, like the Disney trips that cost $7k+. It's the daily small things that matter. Evening meals together 5x a week with the tv off around a table. Sundays after church meal together. Drives to school in the morning( mine went to private school). Simple birthday celebrations always with candles and singing. Conversations about who "we" are as a family and "why" we live like we do at every opportunity. Using every event as an opportunity to reinforce positive values or explain why things aren't good for them. Early introduction of consequences for outright rebellion to authority. Taking a yearly family vacation and doing things with your kids like throwing a baseball in the yard after work. Being present at ball games etc.. IT's the routine daily occurrences of SMALL things that ultimately have the biggest effect on kids. Hugs and I love you's as often as you can.

Buy a ticket and prepare to drive there.

If the Gumps win: the chicken littles will declare again that the sky is falling, that BK will NEVER win a title here, recruits will leave because we can't compete with NIL , Bryce will choose Meechigan, cries to fire everyone will be heard, dogs and wives in LA will be be verbally abused, stadium will empty in the 3rd qtr, older season ticket holders will be blamed for not cheering, the self esteem of football driven posters will plummet, band wagons will be emptied, players thrown under numerous buses repeatedly , season tickets will not be renewed, Hitler and the laughing spanish talk show video renditions will be done about the game by SEC brethren, did I miss anything?

Was 1 of 3 hired as a painter’s helper at a plant in the summer between college semesters. 3 days later a truck with 3 brand new golf carts drove up. We were all laid off the next day.

No, no frills flights. They service slightly smaller less desirable cities. I've flown 2-3 times and no issues.

I have 4 kids from 30 down to 22. Oldest 2 are married and support themselves. Another is getting married this year and moving out. Youngest will be at home for the next couple of years. They are self supporting, except for housing.

Phonics was a tried and true method of learning to read. Why they ever moved away from it was ridiculous. My kids went to a private school that used it. Now my grandkids go. They all learn to read. It’s impressive to see 4 yr olds begin to sound out words, read signs while driving. Also, when the “new” method didn’t work guess how they taught them? Phonics.

This will be a spiritual answer so skip if you want.

The solution is not to work on your anger but to increase your self-control.
Self-control is a fruit of the Spirit from Gal. 5:22-23. It is grown in us by the Holy Spirit through our growing relationship to Him. A lot more could be shared here.

Anger is actually a needed emotion. But we are also admonished to "be angry but sin not". It's not that you are angry, but what you do in response to your anger.

It's such a small school they don't field a football team. They have been pretty good at baseball and basketball but not championship caliber. I think the area likes it that way.
