One of the few social media influencers that is actually pretty awesome.  100 games in a season is badass.

There are a few really good ones, but fuck is it difficult to sort them among all the chaff.

Speaking of AKHSFB, if you follow College Football Campus Tour at all, he's in Utqiagvik, AK for Redington vs Barrow this weekend, aka the northernmost high school football game in the world

The knock on him is that he's a tweener and might be maxed out for college, not that he's not a very effective high school player. 

I get the narrative that’s out there about him. While there might be some truth to it he is a hell of a player. Finished the game with 4 sacks and keep in mind they are moving him around. A guy who has worked with him in the past feels like he can play off the ball as well.

No. Someone commented they said “we wouldn’t see him tonight.” But that was it. Weird 

maybe he's sitting out senior year to save his body for the rigors of collegiate athletics.

No shit. Beautiful scenery and field (not sure of the blue color, but the quality is there.)

i think the depressing comment is about the crystal blue water

the northwest passage is navigable today

the arctic may melt completely next summer

We just got back from an amazing RV and cruise trip to Alaska before the kids started school. I kept telling my family that I’ve always wanted to do it and frankly, I’m not sure how much longer it’ll be worth doing for the kids before the glaciers are diminished or gone.

I have video of some of the most amazing glacier calving out there. A couple huge chunks that were several hundred tons breaking off.

That’s all well and good but there is no good reason to ever present a map in this orientation.

I'm not sure.

When we were in Seward we were planning on making a trip to the Exit Glacier as its own activity. We got to the RV Park early enough and close enough that we just went that same day/night. They've built a whole state park around the Exit Glacier as an attraction and it was completely underwhelming. It basically just looks like some snow on a hill. It was obviously much larger and grander years ago according to the maps they have along the trail. So we just ended up seeing a small glacier, getting rained on and being bitten by bugs.

I don't regret seeing it but I am also happy we didn't make it a "trip" unto itself. It was very uninteresting. Contrasted with the amazing Glacier viewing we had later it made it pale in comparison even worse than our initial impression of it.

So much more to it than just a glacier, but then I LOVE being in the mountains.
 

JMO.

Gates of the artic national park is amazing and it has nothing to do with glaciers.  One of these days I want to see it in winter when its negative 60 and the musk ox are hanging out.

 

Course I also need to make a trip to Kodiak island...again nothing to do with glaciers

Yeah. Sorry I misworded it. I still think it would be a great trip but I did want and wanted my kids to see the glaciers before they were much less grand. Alaska itself was pretty amazing overall. We also have a house in Tahoe, which is not comparable at all but we have a place for mountains and snow to go to regularly.

I like cheese and can tolerate clever puns, Kate Beckinsale has a history of being smoke, a McRib can hit the spot and I’ve even allowed crazy ass cats to do a 180 on my “Only Dogs For Me” mindset, so feline facts are cool. But I don’t even know what the hell this is, something to do with Alaska obviously.

Maybe the geography experts can tell us if it’s further from Barrow to B/CS or Fayetteville

Atkinson had a slight ankle injury.  Nothing serious.  Apparently, Grayson is the 8th ranked team in GA.  The team they destroyed, without Atkinson and two other defensive starters, was 10th.

Well shit!

Now that I know that I have access to a house in Tahoe, I’m going to get back up to NorCal sooner than later!

The most difficult stretch of every recruiting thread…which is saying something.

A few weeks ago, I was griping, then I realized that the nonsense is way better than the CR.
