It’s that time of year. Cold and flu season. And working in schools, I am constantly exposed to every bug/cold/flu that comes through. Nasty little buggers....those kids. Anyway, I have a cold. Sinus infection and cough with no chest congestion. I want to kick this thing’s ass this weekend. Started on Zicam every 3 hours as soon as I felt a sniffle, taking Mucinex to manage the symptoms, and drinking tons of water. Any other suggestions that would help me knock this thing out by Monday morning? I have a lot to do next week, and I don’t want to still be sickly.

Great analysis here. And very consistent with what I’m hearing from people in the know. My main guy who is almost always right is getting tired of me texting him for Isaiah updates, finally responded yesterday after he got back from Hawaii ? “Dude, I have no idea. Honestly. No one does. The only thing I’ve heard is that the coaching staff legit feels like they have a chance.” This is is a strange recruitment. I’ll cross my fingers, as IJ would be a huge get for this program.

They recently had youth hunting weekend here in Vermont. Essentially, if the kid can read well enough to pass the written test and completes the safety course, they can go hunting (and harvest one deer) with a licensed adult hunter. I think it’s a great program, as many of my friends have kids who participated this year. The one thing that rubs me the wrong way is the size of some of the deer I see in the back of trucks. I’m talking doe the size of a small black labs. Not sure how I feel about that.

How’s she bite off his jimmy through his pants?

If you find that special guy, I will be there with cash in hand my friend!

Always at least $100 cash if I get invited to a wedding (even if I don't attend). I typically shell out $300 for a close friend or family member.

Isn’t it interesting that there hasn’t been a 247 crystal ball prediction for Isaiah Jackson since 10/22? His people are really holding this very tight to the vest. I keep hearing Kentucky lean but Syracuse is still “in it.” We’ll find out this weekend.

I’m guessing these girls work the Mon-Wed lunch shift.

It’s sad, really. I’ve been noticing Carey reacting to some negative stuff about him on Twitter, and this was even before the UVA game. He clearly is an insecure kid, and you can see it in his game. My hope is that JC responds well and remains a good teammate. Finish out the season and enter the transfer portal if need be, but I hope he does it right. Good kid, overall.

Still need lots of polish, but the defense and shooting was much better. JG3 just brings a palpable energy to the game every time he checks in for Carey. He looks the part of a major D-1 PG, and while Carey has a lot of talent, he just does not seem to be mentally tough enough. Lacks confidence...easily shaken. I feel bad for the kid, but I’ve been saying since summer time that Girard was going to will his way to that starting spot. Nice to see lots of kids get minutes in the 2nd half. Guerrier finally showed some stuff offensively. Sidibe looked pretty solid. I’d like to see Goodine get some minutes at SG....which he might have at the very end last night. Good bounce back game.

I farted in your thread.

There is a fine line between playing reckless and playing uninhibited. Clearly, Josh Allen has been holding back this season, and I think this has been by design. They need to do a combination of both strategies. Teach him and encourage him to be a pocket passer as much as possible, but give him license to let it rip (on the ground or through the air) if it’s there. I think he’s stagnating and frustrated.

He does well to shave around that thing.

I hear they have the best salad bar in town.

Why 10 coins each? Why not just 1?

Soooo....you have an ass bar in your shower?

I’ve been looking around the garage for my snow brush for a few days ??

Body wash and a washcloth. Hair and face always first, and then I move down to the stinkier regions.

But he just learned about it today. See how this works?

Can’t disagree with anything here. I’ll add Bob Foster. Give me Duke Williams next week.

I’ve been watching on delay the past couple weeks due to traveling for my son’s hockey games. At least partly my bad. They always lose when I watch on delay.

Another scum bag woman beater. Yay for his UFC career. He’d be undisputed champ if he were fighting in the women’s division.

QB’s miss open receivers all the time. Allen missed him.

Thanks for sharing. Melo is a really good dude. “Met” him a couple times. Does great things in the community, and is actually pretty down to earth.

Okay, but didn’t Anthony Lynn step in and make noticeable improvements to the offense almost immediately? For whatever reason, Roman was not effective as an OC/playcaller that season.
