    We've all failed somehow and all of us deserve another chance.

    So many of us here said Johntay was finished. Heck, I thought no legit school would touch him. 

    I'm really impressed with how he is trying to signal that he has a changed attitude and I think regardless if he makes the league, by getting another chance, he has become a success story, of sorts.

    Pretty sure he’s stealing that ball from the child.

  2. A long but informative article from a former student, they are who we thought they were.

    I speak of the school’s true target audience, of the young neoconservatives who seemed to think trans athletes and immigrants were the greatest threat to the Union, whose high school tuition had cost 4x a degree from a public university, who nodded at UATX speakers with graduate degrees from Berkeley or UChicago as they railed against “elites” and “elite culture” on the office complex of a billionaire. At lunch or between class sessions, you could hear them say interesting things. Consider the remarks of a single afternoon. One student, bravely reviving the pseudoscience of physiognomy, said that if your index finger was longer than your ring finger, that probably meant you were gay. Someone else claimed that 20% of Gen Z identified as LGTBQ. “There’s no way a society can evolve if 20% of its population is gay,” another student added, shaking his head. “Evolve,” in this case, seemed to mean “stay the same” or “turn back the historical clock.” Later, yet another statistic was cited: “7% of France is Muslim.” “Yeah,” a peer replied, “that’s a problem because they don’t want to integrate.”

  3. Thinking about doing some over landing in Big Bend, either state or fed park. I know there are lots of primitive camp sites (I don’t have a sleeping set up in my rig) at the park that you have to overland to but wanted to see if anyone had particular routes/spots to recommend?
