  1. Interesting topic. My wife and i had this convo recently regarding my 17 yo daughter. I was like 12 when I was left home alone. But it was different back then. I was left to my own devices at a young age. My daughter is immature for her age, but more than capable of managing by herself. My wife is convinced she is not. What, get a babysitter for a 17 yo? Fuck all that. Most babysitters ARE 17 or so.
  2. He was beyond shitty. Seriously. He couldn't have possibly played worse.
  3. Brutal loss and a very good TE that Chip underutilized. In other news Knew it was coming. Thanks for single handedly losing us 3 games. Fuck off kid.
  4. People who fail to follow proper zipper merging should be crucified. Like literally.
  5. So been following this kid on YouTube. 19 yo out of Hawaii that solo'd on his Nor'Sea 27 from Hawaii yo Tahiti and is now bouncing around French Polynesia. I think he's planning on keeping going as long as he can hold out. Pretty impressive. Even though I had a lot of experience at 19, I was way too much of a dumbass to EVER consider something like this. You get the impression from him, though, that while he knows what he's doing, he has a certain blissful ignorance that allows him to just roll with the punches. https://www.youtube.com/@garrettsadventure
  6. If you watched the, play a few times you’d understand. They really don’t have a weakness and have been getting better all season. And Nix is legit. Dude’s like an 80% passer.
  7. We just want to be like everyone else.
  8. We've had the 2 easiest schedules in UCLA history the last 2 seasons. The entire program is trending down. Our recruiting class is ranked in the 50's with zero 4 or 5 stars. Chip doesn't recruit for shit. And he doesn't engage the BMDs at all. As a result, the NIL collectives are shit. And 7-5 this year with the schedule we had, with losses to ASU and Cal, is criminal. So no, not aggy-ing. The universal feeling among everyone outside of the AD is he needs to go.
  9. Banner flying over campus today: "Read the Room- Fire Chip Kelly" (in response to AD Jarmond commenting after the UCLA win over SC about keeping him) https://www.latimes.com/sports/ucla/story/2023-11-27/ucla-retains-chip-big-ten-500-record
  10. I don't know. I sure don't root against Texas, but some of the meltdown threads were pretty epic when they did lose.
  11. It was the 70's/80's. Parents gave no fucks about kids needs back then. We could've been left to eat gruel and they'd have been fine with it.
  12. Yes. He knows how to build a program.
  13. Not sure. Fisch would be one we'd make a run at. Hartline of tOSU is another. J Smith would have been our #1 target, but alas, we snoozed.
  14. And you'd be wrong. He can't recruit and he can't connect with the few BMDs we have. And his on field "genius" leaves a lot to be desired.
  15. Word is Chip is going to keep his job. We are officially a laughingstock. Big 10 should be fun.
  16. She was a woman of routine. She made the same amount every year. And by the time we got to it, all of the adults were seated and drinking heavily. That couldn't give 2 shits about our plight. They'd have just told us to double up on mashed taters.
  17. We always used to do Christmas Eve at my grandparents, and it was always a traditional Thanksgiving style meal. The youngest kids always had to wait to serve themselves buffet style, and the stuffing, which was magnificent, was always gone by the time I got there. It was always my older cousins who would just hog it all. And they'd just laugh at us youngsters. Pissed me off to no end.
  18. I think you just answered it. Unfortunately Texas' window to get in is pretty tight, and what you laid out may be the only avenue in.
  19. We spent a politics free Thanksgiving with my Maga BIL and his Louisiana wife. They know where we stand and we know where they stand, and everyone was wise enough to keep that topic off the table. Plus, I had scoreboard over his Trojan ass from the prior weekend, so that was my prepared retort should it be necessary.
  20. If they are undefeated, they'll get in over any one loss team.
