    And he will be "the new transfer q.b." in a new college town with lotsa new dating possibilities....What's wrong with that?" : )

    Transfer Portal

    Didn't another Pitt q.b.(DiNucci?)transfer to JMU and have a really great run there? Why not Christian? App State maybe?

    OT: Has anyone else been paying attention to auto insurance premiums?

    Near me there was a light added on a heavily used local road where it crosses a PA numbered route which is a main commuting artery into Wilmington, DE. Our swim club was nearby so I drove this route every morning for kid's practices in Summer and still for Costco, doctors etc. Every time that...

    Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Blue / White Spring game

    It takes 2 to Tango- but for most of the 3rd/4th qtrs Drew did not instill significant confidence. It was almost like James coached to get 1 more exclamation point/stat/qb highlight. I'm good with Drew as starter and w James trying to build him up. But- While I've walked both sides of Drew...

    REPAIR KIT!!

    For a few years we had a cottage on Tilghman Island, MD which is off the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake. It was transitioning from a hardcore "Waterman's" place with a lot of coloquialisms and abject generational poverty, to a DC weekend haven with slick new houses with Bay/river views...

    Light off topic fare, the chipmunk logo

    And of course the coaching staff breaks out hoodies with a new font...half Batman/ half Munsters. I'd go old script over this new block but I'm not the buyer demo they care about anymore. Most of my "new" PSU stuff comes from last years leftovers at TJ Maxx or Gabe's

    Light off topic fare, the chipmunk logo

    I actually bought a white hoodie with the fancy/scripted Penn State on the front and the Pozniak Lion on the back during the Fall of 83 which was my freshman year. It was on deep discount as the chipmunk was the rage. I still like that older combo over any of the 90s/2000s lion designs. Bought...

    OJ Simpson dead at age 76

    Could well have-Old man memory! Lost the series. I went to all the home games- pretty sure they lost one.

    OJ Simpson dead at age 76

    I am one of probably only 1,000 or so Americans who was able to watch both the OJ/Al Cowlings Bronco chase on TV and still watch the Knicks play the Rockets in the NBA Finals Live. Was in the Dorna USA Suite at Madison Square Garden. All networks - including NBC- cut away so The Finals were...

    Top ten RB Alvin Henderson committing tomorrow at Noon...PSU lean

    Plenty of Carter stories out there- but two interesting ones for the other two: 1) I was at "The Shore" near Sea Bright, NJ sometime in the 90s and noticed a super built young man with a small group near where me and my wife were sitting. Guy had Penn State Football shorts on. It was Stephen...

    UConn-Purdue halftime thoughts

    The Final 4 is on my bucket list and I was thinking about 26 or 27 when it is in Indy and Detroit. Driveable- saves flight $ and hassle. How early did you make your plan and/or buy tix? Did you go through NCAA or scalp sites? Did hotels take long in advance reservations? Or maybe you live in...

    RB Hayden from Ohio State enterted the Transfer Portal

    Or Ole Miss to flip w Judkins? It's like a YMCA pick up game anymore...but good for him to bolt if that's what he thinks is best. The new "Team" is made up of component parts looking out for only their own sole interests...playing time, NIL, etc

    OT Review of Eclipse in Southwest Ohio

    OT Review of Eclipse in Southwest Ohio

    What we saw started as an "Islam Moon" left crescent and as time went on it turned into a "Smiley Face" with a gradually bigger smile. Neat but not the full experience. My wife eventually just went inside....I stayed out with the dogs because I had nothing better to do!

    OT Review of Eclipse in Southwest Ohio

    My last 4 states to hit are Hawaii, Alaska, North/South Dakota. Since I might be dead in 20 years maybe the 2033 is my hedge bet? Wife and I are re-watching Northern Exposure on Netflix....could probably get her to bite right now : ) Good info!

    OT Review of Eclipse in Southwest Ohio

    My cousin was a Park Ranger in the Canyon for 15 years. I've been there 2 times- South Rim once and North Rim 2nd. It snowed the first time and rained the 2nd. My cousin said I was "lucky" to get to view the Canyon in some natural conditions that most never see. I just wanted to be able to...

    OT Review of Eclipse in Southwest Ohio

    We had the glasses and they were an asset when the clouds were clear- but even with a little coverage they were useless (except maybe saving our retinas!) : )

    OT Review of Eclipse in Southwest Ohio

    My son and his girlfriend went to Montreal. I got a little concerned that they may have goofed when our local Philly ABC station had a reporter in Plattsburgh, NY interview a French Canadian couple who headed South FROM Montreal. There were apparently 150,000 in the city celebration my son was...

    UConn-Purdue halftime thoughts

    There are many similarities between both this game and the Women's Championship. Both Hurley and Staley may not be "popular," but their teams are tough, deep, play smothering D and share the ball. Edey and Clark were on islands- great players but just not enough. The better teams won. Congrats...
