Re: People at work

This site is blocked where I work. Too many people were spending too much time on it, and they track internet activity.

So do I. If cheering for the guys can get them there, I'm ready to help. Shoot, I'll bake them cookies and brownies.

Re: Charlotte Bobcats Close To Changing Name Back To Hornets

A few years ago, my daughter rode on a float with the Hornet mascot in a parade. Pretty cool.

Re: What is your most compelling question for the 2013 Gamecock football season?

My prediction - yes, and more than once.

BTW, Thompson WAS injured last year. Don't you remember the famous "sleeping injury" which really wasn't a sleeping injury?

My biggest concern is the 3...

It happens to me fairly regularly, but I have learned to control the dream. I replay it over and over until I work out a good ending. Then I wake up, and I can move. I used to fly quite a bit, but...

Re: What I love most about Coach Spurrier...

I agree with that, and I would add that Spurrier is more likely to reach his goals than is Saban.

Re: Spurrier, SEC Deal and paying players

This is a great idea. Why don't you relay that to Clowney, Shaw, Thompson, Ellington, Byrd, Cann, and the rest? They can quit playing football and get a job. Of course, the games will suck again.

Re: Spurrier, SEC Deal and paying players

You highlighted only part of that sentence. I specified "in the last year." I believe that those others plays have been gone more than a year.

I have never told people who work how they have to...

Re: Paying Student Athletes

So, rather than give the money to the kids who are actually working and bringing it in, you would distribute it "fairly" among those who earned no scholarship money at all? That would include those...

Re: Paying Student Athletes

I'm not buying tickets to a game to see you do whatever it is you're doing, so you don't generate money.

I keep seeing that our athletes should stop whining about not being paid. I haven't heard...

Re: Paying Student Athletes

If we can ignore the second amendment to the Constitution without taking it through proper channels, I'm fairly certain someone can find a way to do what they want with these rules.

Re: Paying Student Athletes

Good to know this.

And BTW, I got married when I finished my fourth year of a five year degree, but then, I overloaded my classes for a couple of semesters, and I had time to work that year.

Exactly. I've never seen anything written yet that didn't have a loophole in it, except the Bible.

Huh? I never said they lived in the slums. Their housing is provided, and it's nice. They just don't have much money to spend.

If they had time to work and refused to, I wouldn't be in favor of...

And if you're redshirted, that's five years of no job. What if they want to get married? Sorry, can't do that. You can have children, but you can't afford to get married.

Re: Paying Student Athletes

Being a female doesn't preclude you from having a girlfriend anymore.

I meant a decent stipend. For the time they put it, they don't even get minimum wage.

Re: Ref dies after HS player attacks

Seriously? Six months for killing a man whose children no longer have a father?

As violent as this kid is, perhaps he should be off the streets.

Re: Paying Student Athletes

You seem to be confusing academic and athletic scholarships. Some of our athletes have both, but it's probable that most don't.

I'm sure you would have liked to have played a sport. Not everyone...
