I’ve had it in Georgia for about 5-6 years. It’s really not a big deal. So wild.
I beg to differ. See you in Clemson. Well….probably not, but I’ll be there

I'm in the dog house because I didn't smile enough last night at a Christmas musical that lasted 3 hours on a Tuesday night. She asked me if I had a good time and I said not really it was boring.


"It was nice." You aren't in the dog house due to not smiling. It was the response that got you. Gotta be better than that.
I would actually say the product on the field is starting to wane. High school kids getting paid without proving anything is degrading the sport. (Football) Talent makes you a stud in high school. Talent plus solid work ethic in college. Talent plus extreme work ethic in the NFL. Rewards are being given to kids just for being talented. Product….fricked. This will have echos all the way up to the league.
Live in Georgia, so I have to pull for Texas for self preservation
Get another hobby, dude. Wow.

Sold…
My past 3 cars have been Nissans. Bought the 2023 pathfinder because they dropped the cvt. They are just too unreliable.
Been twice. It's fine to drink at your tailgate if you just put it in a cup. Premixed drinks into 20oz diet coke bottles to keep it low key and didn't get bothered walking around. Just don't be a dick.

You will never see more denim in a stadium in your life. Atmosphere is great. I don't have too much desire to go back....
No kidding. The morning coffee this am on the back deck in Kennesaw was delightful.
It's brutal. The first couple of years I pieced it together. Moved into an small apartment. It amazed me how little I could live on and be happy.

Met a new girl, (not crazy) made a blended family, and all of a sudden her ex is paying CS which countered my CS and we had two incomes for one household. (In addition to both of us getting promoted at work multiple times) Fast forward 12 years later and life is pretty awesome.

I will always appreciate those years in the apartment though. It wasn't big enough for the kids and myself, but we had a lot of fun.
I'm shocked that people even watch the Espy's anymore. There are so many better entertainment options out there.

LSU fans need to learn the lessons of our optimism from a backup QB coming into the game in the second half, and leading us to victory or almost leading us there. Brandon Harris against MSU in 2014. Anthony Jennings against Arkansas in 2013. These guys were gonna be the saviors of LSU football, according to our fans, and we all know what happened.


I get where you are trying to go here, but those situations are completely different when it comes to Nuss.
Keep up with it a bit but won’t go out of my way to watch. We have a couple of trips coming up so there is some solace that I won’t be preoccupied looking for places to watch the game and can fully engage.
Get another hobby. This one is obviously going to put you in an early grave.

Been through 3 girls. Right now ages 23,20,18. 11 sounds unreasonably early for a high school grad. I would try and find a middle ground there considering her age and stage in life. (summer after high school graduation)

Be grateful you aren't in a split household where the other parent doesn't give a crap. Enforcing anything like this sends them to the other parent and there is nothing you can do unless they have a strong understanding of your intent and are unnaturally mature for their age. (1 of ours was, the other two may GOD have mercy on us)
Was there. Had fun watching all that red walk out the stadium as LSU scored the last touchdown. Serves them right.
Godspeed to you. I went through it 13 years ago, and it was hell. Karma has a way of working out, though. Getting poison minimized in your life makes things much more rewarding.

2) add top end players, and let NIL money become the "scholarship", saving true scholarships for those athletes not able to get top NIL money. Some schools are already doing this.



I may be wrong on this, but I'm pretty sure if they touch the field in a game they count against the 85.
