I’m not saying I want western civilization to experience true hardship. Certainly not in my children’s lifetimes. But today’s generations including mine have no concept of hardship. None.

Very unusual deer for that area. Can it happen? Sure.

There will be some bitter dudes who crap on this guy. I personally will choose to say congratulations to this guy until proven otherwise.

Do you think a “year” in the old testament and a calendar year now are the same thing?

JJ only pretends to care. It’s the most valuable franchise by a lot and will be that way for a long time.

By comparison, the FCS playoffs are on round 4 this week. Lol

But muh finals week?!?!??

My son played in the prep classic a couple of years ago. Counting jamboree and scrimmage they played 17 games with one bye week. Major CFB looks like giant pussies with some of the shite they do.

The most glaring issue with most morbidly obese is the refusal to accept responsibility for getting that way.

but lets not act like it wouldn't have benefited him to have a college degree in something useful

Everything is a choice. I have a degree. I am appreciative for my career path but it wasn't easy, took a hefty toll on my family when I was starting out (stress, time commitments, travel, relocation) and has left me out in the wind on more than one occasion.

Make no mistake, formal training and licensures are a MUST. Grunt work is not sustainable for very long. There is a huge difference between a Licensed electrician and a guy who does electrical work. A Licensed Plumber and a guy who unclogs toilets.
