    Yeah, no... I know I should consider the source, but this directly contradicts what's been said and done as a recruiting approach. I can't remember one recruit where if they wanted to visit elsewhere, their offer gets pulled. 

    FUPM pulled a few offers when guys decided to look around.

    Guy deserves even more credit for hanging on considering he probably had to support an additional 5-6 lbs of shit in his pants.

    Hang gliding is a zero-sum game.

    My baby-naming advice has always been to not give your kid a name they’ll have to spell every fucking day of their life. This rule still applies.

    Yes, this should be posted at every opportunity because its absolutely never ever been posted before.  Good job good effort.

    Hey did you know that the 94, 95 and 97 NC teams were entirely filled with Texas players?  Because I read it on here!  It must be true!

    Since you like that so much, I’ll post this Lincoln Journal Star article (for the umpteenth time):

    Goddamit. Medically induced shart. I've got a colonoscopy tomorrow, been drinking that shit that makes you shit. Already two extended trips to the toilet, waited a little too long on this one. One drop made it on my underwear when i stood up from the couch.

    Me, too. Just got my IV and visit from the CRNA. I have permission - encouragement, actually - to fart after the procedure.

    I also had a bit of an accident last night.

    I scan through XM Fox Sports channel 83 in the morning, forgetting that Undisputed is on during that time. I honestly cannot understand what in the fuck Shannon Sharpe is saying. He’s unintelligible and I speak jive just fine. The worst voice I’ve ever heard for radio. 

    PSA for those who don’t want to listen to SS:  skip to 5:55 on the video satyanash posted.

    The IT post regarding “you guys should be quiet and trust us when it comes to the street agents. Don’t worry, we’ll tell you which ones to trust.” is fucking golden. Until the class narrows down to 10 or less open slots every year, they’re as wrong as anyone. Basically until August, they don’t know shit from shinola, but they’re going to arbitrate what Texas is doing and with whom to the audience. That’s some solid hubris.

    Something about a coach who was sleeping with his mom and may have also been his uncle. That combined with his girlfriend attending Houston and their ability to outbid everyone else. Did I cover it all?

    How smooth is Giiles? Barry White level smooth?

    It ain’t a problem for me to fly into the pacific time zone. The return trip is pretty shitty late night though.

    How long is the trip in that new-fangled bi-plane of yours?

    If you don't want to spank your kid...then don't.

    LOLz at the folks sharing how tough their huge ass dad was with a belt. I grew up with many other kids who were in single parent homes where the moms doled out the discipline.  Pissed off moms ain't no joke, although I fundamentally disagree with spankings before the parents coll off to administer them. My mom happened to be 5'5" and was hard as fuck, LOL.  She was every bit as scary, if not more so than any tough guy I ever knew.  My friends' moms( and dads if they were there) all had instant permission to bust my ass if I was fucking up at their house. That's just the way things were.

    I spanked both of my boys. I expect that they will spank their kids.  It is not abuse when done properly.  i do feel waaaaaay too many kids in our society are not receiving proper instruction/ accountability/ corrective action from their parents.  Bring this discussion up with anyone who works in elementary education.  It's unbelievable what they have to tolerate in the schools from these fuckups, and I am speaking of the parents not the kids.  By high school, it's a much tougher row to hoe...

    This mentality in our society that everything is permissible and there should be no boundaries for my child is killing us.

    Gets tougher when they aren't half your size and are big enough to defend themselves from a beating, I'd guess.

    Most effective discipline my parents ever doled out was when i stole a candy bar from a convenience store.  I wasn't allowed to play basketball on the school team for 2 weeks.  Longest two weeks of my preteen life.    Never stole another candy bar.     Try taking away privileges.   That's what you do when they're older and you can't manhandle them anymore, right?

    I gave +rep to both of these because neither one advocated for pampering their little snow flakes.  Discipline is effective regardless as long as it’s administered appropriately and consistently

    I’m gonna side with the American Academy of Pediatrics versus any study that says there are health and developmental benefits for corporal punishment. 

    But then, I like fact-based science, not “back in my day” anecdotal evidence. So I may be biased. 

    Being married to a physician, I can say that many OB/GYNs don't agree with some of the positions of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, many Pediatricians don't agree with some of the positions of the American Academy of Pediatrics, etc.  I'm not saying many disagree with this particular position, but those organizations don't have universal support among their membership.  I know many doctors who won't join the AMA because of their stance on certain issues, and many who maintain membership do so while holding their noses.  Some contribute to AMPAC but do not join the AMA. It's a complicated business.

    You're a doofus if you think the Pac-12 would stick us in the 9 Central slot more than maybe once every 2-3 years.

     

    They would actually love to have a third time zone to justify more early tv time slots.  Even our away games would probably demand an early west coast time slot so they can get more central time zone eye balls.
