I like that Willie doesn't have furry sleeves and legs. He's a maverick in the mascot world. One of a kind.

Seriously.  So many fans of other schools are obsessed with this and I literally have never given it a second thought and I tend to complain about lots of stuff.

I think the "Wildcats" in full mascot pajamas look stupid.

Also, the "aggie" debate on Clemson has now officially ended.  They are "Backup Aggie."

Safety Aggie?

guy I was in the frat with got his degree in education.  I was cramming for an international econ final and he had to play the recorder.

Now, he is a principal and texts me from the pool, gym and/or bar all summer.

I golf pak with him when I can but I have lots of work to do during the summer.

Am I crazy or shouldn't a kid who cannot even read at 6 be praying he can even be a factory worker?

There is zero market for someone who cannot read the english language but can parrot back informtion about wings/lift.

I would of loved to have been a teacher and thought about it in college but I couldnt get over how little the pay was. That being said I dont think teachers are underpaid. They get summers off, 2 weeks off for christmas, all those random holidays the real world doesnt get off(mlk day, presidents day etc) so it evens out.

If I were to become incredibly rich by the time I'm 45-50 I would probably quit my job and become a teacher. You would still be bringing in some money and would have plenty of time for vacations.
yeah than include continuing ed which is necessary for NCLB, spending more of their own money than any other profession would to make their work places (classrooms) run because people don't want to pay a fair share for taxes to support their schools, regularly spend at least 20% more time than they are contracted doing school duties, or the fact that many other people do get those days off as well and no, teachers are behind the 8 ball.

I don't think teachers are worked too hard, by any means. They are moderately underpaid, but really I think we need to stop giving kids summers off school. Just make them go year-round and compensate teachers accordingly.

Jesus Christ no.  Kids need a damn break - they're not developmentally able to stay focused for a normal school year until junior high.   You sound like a parent that wants free childcare.
This isn't true.  There is a lot of good data that suggests retention is hurt with our long summer breaks in the US.  The idea behind year long schooling is to have the same number of school days and move parts of the summer break to a longer winter break and around spring break.

But the kids need to be off for 3 months for the harvest.  (the reason for the summer breaks in the current school year)

Bentley is a clod.  I wouldn't have even gotten out of the stretch job when I saw it was that 6 head midget.

Will take focus off the historically loser football team in Lawrencetucky

The same team that has historically destroyed KSU's football team.  Another attempt at humor down the drains.

the same team that never won a big 12?  oh man

Honestly, I think the show's executives will rig it so Sean finishes second, and then he will be The Bachelor.

LSOC already nailed this ending a few pages back.  check it.

21-20 since the 12- game losing streak  :driving:

 :flush:

1-5 vs losery losers. and now zack is gonna mush our fat losery faces into the ground.

and you know what we deserve it. we are running luis mendoza out there instead of growing a pair and bringing up odorizzi. eff this organization.

the worst damn organization in the entire professional sporting world. eff them. i can't take it anymore.
PFFFT Zack has a 7.03 ERA on the road.

royals will score 2 or less.

could be his first no-hitter or even a perfect game. i wouldn't even be mad. he and beltran are the only reason the 2000's were tolerable for me.

add Ken Harvey mushing Grimsley's ugly face with a relay throw and i'm right there with you.

What if she rejects him and sean is the new bachelor??

:surprised:

We would all know he was her first choice but ABC bribed them to not go through with it so he could be the new bach and create the greatest ratings of all time.

Plus, Sean isn't down with some broad who has baggage like Em.

 :sdeek:

Were tickets involved in that somehow also?  Or was that a separate deal?

Lot's of shady stuff going on around Haith's program.

Stoney Brooke did just get a new field . . . literally a new FieldTurf Field, the permenant seats, pressbox and other amenities are just going to have to wait until more donations come in. 

Poor Brad Hill toiling away in his baseball offices, with the clubhouse and weightroom just down the hall, with the flat screen TV's and such.

he has a absolutely locked down the recruitment of Manhattan High though.  I mean, he gets first AND second pick.

Apparently Stoney Brooke has the resources, and they just made their baseball coach a full time position a couple of years ago.

It is not reasonable to expect to compete with the Stoney Brookes of the world.

I'm not a very knowledgable criminal, but I just don't see how you can gear up for a daring heist and get yourself all amped up then set your sights on a Pizza Hut.

He IS a ku grad...

Have to go to Madison, WI this summer sometime.  Any pro-tips?

Go to the "Ale Asylum", best beer I have ever had in my life.

State Street is fun, go to Mondays.
