  1. Good, yet pricey, options in BC village. https://hookedbc.com/ https://www.beavercreek.com/the-mountain/on-mountain-dining/beanos-cabin.aspx https://www.grousemountaingrill.com/ Pretty good pizza https://www.bluemoosepizza.com/
  2. LOL. this statement actually isn’t terrible
  3. Yeah. He was already doing what a police officer had told him to do, so why would he stop for someone that wasn't a police officer?
  4. It’s terrible that we ever had a Negro League, but this just doesn’t make sense.
  5. Norton's first film role was in 1996, about 10-15 years too late.
  6. If you're including Spader and Downey, might as well include Hutton, Cruise, Penn, Dillon, Cage, Broderick and Modine. They were at least mentioned in the New Yorker article as members, unlike Spader and Downey.
  7. All those featured in the trailer have aged very well. Estevez has completely morphed into Martin Sheen, though. Guess Nelson, Ringwald and AMH opted out.
  8. That's a fantastic lie.
  9. To add to this, they usually love it. My 11 year old told me last night he wishes he had baseball practice every night. Thank god for me, he doesn't. Once they lose interest or stop wanting to go to every single practice, we sit down and have a talk about the time and money dedicated and usually make the decision to stop playing that particular sport. Baseball ended with both of my oldest at 12. I definitely do not see those years as a waste though. Some of the best times of all of our lives.
  10. As a father of 3 boys between 11-15, this is something I have learned. I used to be snarky about youth sports, and how could people possibly pay this or that. Give up that weekend, etc. They're never going to be in the big leagues! Then you realize that, at many schools, football is about the only sport you can just sign up and be on the team no mater. My kids are decent athletes and we've sweated baseball, soccer, tennis and basketball tryouts for years now. For many, its just doing what you need to do to play JV sports. And if they want to keep doing it in HS, awesome. And if God reaches down and touches their right arm and give them the ability to throw 95+, awesome too. But very few are banking on that to happen. HS coaches still develop players, but most decent programs expect to (on developmental scale of 1-10) take 7's and get them to 10, not take 2's and get them to 7's. Unless you are an elite raw athlete, if you expect to play baseball, basketball, soccer, or many others, you need to be playing it at more than a casual level by the time you're 12-13. That's obviously not everyone or every school, but in my experience, the majority.
  11. No longer
