Tips on Youth Coaching - Flag Football
Typically each kid has to touch the ball once, but you might actually double check what the actual rules are. That said, there might be a pre-season coach/commissioner/org meeting where some rules are negotiable. You might be able to get more touches/playing time for each of the kids. These kinds of things are great because it helps you to figure out which other coaches take it too seriously. They're easy to pick out if you propose certain things. Also - with 6 year olds, I think your experience might be night-and-day compared to what @LCHorn had with 2nd graders. If you successfully get 1 misdirection play out of 6 year olds, you would be coach of the year

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
As you probably know, I was kidding. However, I agree with you. Some folks can survive on innate talent until a certain point. Then, they develop new skills. etc.

It is a talent inherited in utero.

Bill Belichick Rides Again: Hired at North Carolina to build NIL NFL Factory
There are more attractive out there and there are less attractive out there. A 24 year old whose primary job is to look good will likely look average or above average. Like @PittsburghTiger I find her a little scary, or at least unsettling. I also find it odd that both would be willing to make such a public spectacle of everything. There was almost no way to keep it under wraps given BB's high profile job at UNC, but sharing all sorts of shit on social media - and her being so intimately involved in his day-to-day is odd. Yeah, yeah - undefeated and all, but this is just odd. (fwiw, I am not sure I have ever written a sentence with the word "there" 4x before).

Dairy Queen slowly dying
The juxtaposition of her appearance and some of the locals (she, too, is a local) in that video is strking. Genetics and socioeconomic status has some to do with it, but the the dental care diversity stood out. Guess which one is Hannah

Flight disrupting assholes Thread of Shame.
Interesting requirements to become an air traffic controller... edited to add - I think we're kinda fucked unless they incentivize this role a bit more. In my life, I've heard of exactly 1 person who was an ATC. Friend's brother is a retired air traffic controller after spending some time in the air force. He's long retired. It's super high stress and thankless. Right now, there are around 15k air traffic controllers. At $150k/year, that's around $2.25B per year to guarantee the safety of roughly 2.9 million passenger trips per day. 2.9 million passenger trips per day works out to around 1 billion trips per year in/out of US airports. A additional $3 FAA surcharge per trip could easily fix this problem. Basic Air Traffic Controller qualifications All applicants to the air traffic controller program must meet these minimum requirements: Be a United States citizen Be under the age of 31 Pass a medical examination Pass a security investigation Pass the FAA air traffic pre-employment tests, including the Air Traffic Controller Specialists Skills Assessment Battery (ATSA) Speak English clearly enough to be understood over communications equipment Have one year of progressively responsible work experience, or a Bachelor's degree, or a combination of post-secondary education and work experience that totals one year

They both look like wasted draft picks. Shedeur holds the ball too low and always does that clutch/pump before he throws. I'm here for the entertainment...

Couple of observations. 1 - Kenneth Grant is taking shit seriously. 2 - There was neither a sack nor a self sack involving Ewers. Chum for the haters.

Unsolicited advice I have offered anyone who will listen: refuse any flight that involves EWR. It is a shitshow right now.

Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
In games where Pickens was the leading receiver, Pittsburgh was 7-2 last year. And they were 1-2 in games he missed. Pickens + 6 for 3rd + 5th is basically recuperating the 2nd they used for him in 2022. He would not be on Pittsburgh's roster after 2025, so he likely garners a compensatory pick best case at #100. This trade will get (1) him out of the locker room and (2) the Steelers a pick around 80.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
Agree with @immamac that Quinn needs to clear out his team and start anew. Ron Slavin, his Southlake-based agent, has been certified by the NFLPA since 2004, but has only negotiated about 17 contracts in that time. Here are the ones I could find. He makes reference to Miami and Notre Dame - and the timeline. Miami was likely tampering both Quinn and Carson Beck and might have said, "we'll get $4mm to the first one to sign." Notre Dame's QB room looks a little weak right now. That said, I wonder why no NFL teams were giving "if you are there in round N, we are taking you" advice to his agent. Or perhaps he was not getting the pre-draft feedback he needed. Nothing he is saying at this point is helping Quinn. He needs to say things like, "Quinn is confident in his abilities and willing to do whatever it takes to excel at the NFL level. We believe Miami is a great place for that to start." And move on...

Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
Pickens is a top-quartile receiver when he is "on" and focused. When he is not, he's about as effective as I am at WR. He's a whiner and a head case most of the time. As noted, though, the Steelers had Wilson and Fields as QB. Dak is definitely superior to those guys. The Steelers QB room looks worse this year, so Pickens' bitching might have escalated. If Tomlin has lost patience with him, that should be a warning.

That would have been the magical, mystical triple negative - and been hypothetically grammatically correct. The original is more likely correct.

Yes. A significant portion. However, AB is still able to remain entertaining on social media. Just imagine how he’d be if his brains were not scrambled.

The ABIA Thread of Gross Incompetence
ABIA adjacent complaints... Does Uber now require that every driver possess a car with at least one warning light (two preferred) illuminated? Check engine, ABS, tire inflation, etc. If only one is illuminated, then brake vibration or grinding is required. Flights into EWR are delayed significantly today. EWR having runway repairs. 6a flight now 8:20. Ugh. PreCheck is becoming more annoying over time. (1) too many people have it now (2) fucking Clear breaks the line. New x-ray scanner machines are slower than before.

If she's fellating him more than 5 times per week (yes) and "getting all gussied up" for him in the critical times (yes), the occasional "eek, that's an NCSU 4" (yes) thought will quickly pass.

google the following text: when to use es for plural The machine will tell you the following (I bolded and italicized the "-x" reference below): AI Overview Learn more The suffix "-es" is used to form the plural of most nouns that end in "-s", "-x", "-z", "-ch", or "-sh". This is generally done to maintain correct pronunciation and avoid clashing with the sound of the plural "s". Here's a more detailed explanation: Pronunciation: The "-es" ending is used to ensure the plural pronunciation is distinct from the singular form, especially with words ending in sounds like /s/, /z/, /ch/, etc. General Rule: Add "-s" to most nouns to make them plural (e.g., "cats," "boxes"). Exceptions: -o: Many words ending in "-o" add "-s" (e.g., "radios," "tomatoes"), but some add "-es" (e.g., "heroes," "potatoes"). -s, -x, -z, -ch, -sh: Nouns ending in these letters/letter combinations typically add "-es" to their plural form (e.g., "foxes," "boxes," "churches," "brushes," "classes"). -y preceded by a consonant: If the singular noun ends in "-y" that is preceded by a consonant, change the "-y" to "-i" and add "-es" (e.g., "baby" becomes "babies"). - Deion Sanders "Coach Prime" Now At Colorado
