    OT: Brandon Short’s Daughter Victim of Shooting

    They returned to the States this year. Not sure where they settled. Such horrible news. Deepest sympathies to him and his family

    Noah Cain 2021 Edition...

    Correct. That said, one of the runs when he ill-advisedly back-tracked was still damned impressive. Lost 3 yards, but broke 4 tackles in the process.

    FC: Another athlete risks achieving their ultimate goal because of a little weed.

    True on its face, but also a unreasonably slanted way of saying it. And, fwiw, I don't have much a dog in the MJ fight. Should it be de-criminalized, well duh, yes, but I've always preferred the sauce. One could just as accurately say, William Randolph Hearst's yellow journalism crusade...

    ...presenting the return of Marc Andre "4 Goal" Fleury....

    Gotta admit, there are some Canadiens I can't stand (Weber, Perry, Gallagher), but they have some super likeable guys, too. They're probably the horse I'm pulling for no matter who wins Game 7 of the TB-NYI game. And, sure as Beano making a Heisman predication, my rooting for them will probably...

    I dunno. Texas has been vascillating between so-so and dumpster fire. Understandable to look for other pastures

    OT: I may have a new favorite creamery flavor...

    Tell you what though, I haven't seen Russ' flavor there in ages and we make it by the Creamery several times a year. Shame because it's dynamite. And given that Russ has been outspoken in support of JVP, I feel like it may not be a coincidence

    So....was I being over cautious or uncaring?.....

    Just keep posting pictures ;-)

    So....was I being over cautious or uncaring?.....

    So it was the right result, wrong rationale imo. Not intervening b/c the situation didn't warrant it would be reasonable. Not intervening b/c of a perceived chance of blowback, no bueno imo. Fair enough. We disagree

    So....was I being over cautious or uncaring?.....

    Ro's post was vague. That was on him, & to a point BWI. You can only include so many details. And yeah, I was probably too pissy in my response. But the bottom line -- he said he didn't get involved b/c he didn't want to be falsely accused. But the scenario he described was not one where...

    So....was I being over cautious or uncaring?.....

    I've saved many kids lives and I'm a hell of a lot more aware than you.

    So....was I being over cautious or uncaring?.....

    My suggested response is conditional because the fact pattern he laid out was vague. Assuming as seems to suggest that the kid was being teased, even to an excessive degree, that's not real abuse & there was no cause for him to get involved. And that should have been his response to the lady...

    So....was I being over cautious or uncaring?.....

    Was it your place to intervene, no. Was your rationale overly cautious? That's too generous a way to put it. It was patently unreasonable. And this is coming from someone who has worked in child welfare issues for many years. So I'm very aware of the need to take precautions to avoid...

    Lamont Wade blip - Steeler OTAs.

    I just can't see him making in the NFL. He was too tentative to utilize his speed in college. The step up to the NFL doesn't bode well given that liability. Of course, I hope I'm wrong.

    Naomi Osaka refusing post match interviews at French Open ...

    Pretty sure that it was the 2 seconds UM game in '05

    Robert Morris dropping men's and women's hockey.

    Agreed, that's the worst part of it. Relative to their peers, the kids are at a disadvantage trying to find landing spots for transferring. Bad as the situation is, it could help us. I don't follow our schollie situation in hockey like I do in football, but I'd imagine there are a couple of...

    What are your thoughts on why after 85, 86

    Madsol, to your point 1, I'm not sure if that really is what the OP meant. But if it is, there's a very simple answer. The '86 team was loaded w/ 5th year seniors at a time when almost all programs operated in a rebuild, not reload, mindset. Everything set up perfectly for the Greatest College...

    FC/OT: Keegan Michael Key SNL?

    You missed nothing. Huge waste of Key's talent. FWIW, I'm not anti-SNL as a rule. But for me, this entiire season has been a bummer & last week is the low-point to date from what I've seen

    RnR HOF 2021 Inductees

    Your point is well taken though I do have a friend who met his (current) wife at one of their shows He met his 1st wife at a court-mandated AA course, so his picks are improving
