Steve O

I think a lot of millennials call it the WWW now?

His short stay was completely forgettable.

https://sports.yahoo.com/texas-fires-vince-young-from-parttime-job-194711992.html If you read through the comments at the end someone states that it started as a 100K/yr full time job but he kept missing work so they made it a 50K per year part time job...he couldn't even handle the demands of that. I remember listening to Donald Jones when he was on with Murph talking about a high draft pick that had the worst presence in the huddle of anyone he had ever played with. Donald never let on who it was but it had to be Vince. Mods please note I had this in college football forum and it was suggested that I move it to Stadium Wall. Will try to delete from college football, but I'm not all that tech savvy. Edit: I managed to delete from College Football, feel free to move it back (and blame Gugny who suggested it be moved to Stadium Wall?)

Draft Whitner instead of Ngata Draft Hardy instead of Desean Jackson Draft Maybin instead of Orakpo Draft Spiller with Lynch and Freddie already on the roster Draft Troup instead of Gronk Trade up for TJ Grahm and pass on Russell Wilson Draft EJ Manuel Trade up for a WR that can't stay healthy in the first, then draft a tackle that can't block in the second This regime is in there so these nightmare scenarios don't happen.

Welcome to national sleep deprivation week

Point of Impact, Stephen Hunter (movie Shooter is based on this) anything by J P Hailey / Parnell Hall (same guy) - short, cute/funny mystery novels. Usually just a couple hundred pages.

For those interested, here's a list of the first 230 (as well as some subsequent ones) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_deaths

You are correct. Fixed now

This is why these are controversial opinions ?

No problem with that at all. Problem is with snafu, who wants to eliminate the preceding e in words where x is pronounced x.

Problem is that when a word starts with X the X sounds like a Z.

Coincidentally, Art died of pancreatic cancer.

It seems most of us (yours truly included) are enthralled with threads about TV. Right now, of the first 21 threads of OTW, there are 7 separate threads about TV shows, 4 more about TV personalities. Any of the Hot for Teacher threads are my favorite.

Guilty. Mind corrects these things automatically. While we're on the subject, how many of each animal did Moses take on the ark?

So yeah, what CWater 10 said on page 1. They were called Cliff notes in the 70's, when did they become Coles notes?

And why do these articles keep referring to the teen boys as victims?

Probably a good guess. Spent the last 15 minutes researching on the world wide web, Joe Horn was the only WR name I could find that had any real success in the NFL following the CFL. Was interesting to see that Fred Biletnikoff and Chad Johnson (Ocho-Cinko) ended their careers in the CFL. Remember seeing a CFL game with former first round Bills pick Perry Tuttle five years after his NFL career had ended.

Yes but I never watched 90210, Riverdale, or soap operas.

26 seconds...26 seconds of my life I'll never get back

My thoughts exactly about Wade. Who would have thought almost 20 years after his firing we would refer to the Wade Phillips era as the good old days? I liked the energy Fewell brought but there was a play where a pass got intercepted that T O could have easily prevented but instead he just gave up once it was clear the pass was under thrown. Then walked right past Fewell on the sideline without a word. Thought Fewell should have been in his face. Just remembered not being nearly as enamored with him after that.

I thought so to but this guy was drafted in the second by Cinci. Jake Long was #1 overall in 2008, Eric Fisher out of Central Michigan was the #1 overall pick in 2013. Jake Fisher combines both their names which may have caused our confusion.

Yes that is correct. Here is the thing. Don't know how familiar you are with "the system." Have you heard of the five year look back? To qualify for in home medicaid, there is no look back. The five year look back pertains nursing homes. So, if you put your father's assets into an Irrevocable Trust today, on March 2, 2024 a nursing home won't be able to touch them and Medicaid would take over the payment to the nursing home. However, you would be able to apply for in-home medicaid tomorrow. At 90 your father will only get worse and need more help. Six years ago my father (then 95) had a stroke and overnight my parents went from "more than the sum of their parts" to, not twice the problem, but the problem squared. Talk about a life changing event. Anyways we kept them both at home. First 3 years we went through almost 100K per year on top of their pensions and SS income. Then my brother researched the in-home medicaid thing. Long story short we have broke even the past two years, plus when one of us fills in we get paid $11.50/hr. You need to start by talking to an estate attorney and put your father's assets into an irrevocable trust.

Since this led to his firing, I'll just add that Wade never should have been fired and would still be the head coach today if he hadn't been.
