Week 2, 2024: Texas at Michigan
You mean a Heisman campaign based on Alabama's "you've got the touch" didn't resonate with Heisman voters? Kind of like a recruiting video with "nothing gonna stop us now" didn't connect with recruits? Who the hell was running our SID then?

Week 2, 2024: Texas at Michigan
I do like that the board feels that the biggest threat to a Texas victory is a big 12 crew. Can't disagree.

Week 2, 2024: Texas at Michigan
I can't tell if this holy fucking shit, I can't believe a big 12 crew is officiating this game, or I can't believe you guys are stupid enough to believe that's a possibility. I really hope it's the latter, but given that this game was scheduled while we were in the big 12 I could see the contract saying that. If true, I can't imagine CDC not negotiating a change.

Immamacs family adventure from Fargo to Ann Arbor for the Michigan Game
Lived 18 winters in Minnesota. This is correct. You don't have to shovel heat to get out of your driveway.

Tell Me About Michigan
I finally figured out I went to high school with the lawyer. Actually was a good guy, though I didn't know him that well as he was a couple grades below me. Yes, I feel old as shit after typing that out

It's pretty damn obvious he did it but is unwilling to throw harbaugh or the program under the bus. The zoom call with the NCAA and his lawyers was amusing.

Deion Sanders "Coach Prime" Now At Colorado
Can someone talk me out of betting NDSU+10? I'm having a hard time seeing cu convincingly beating a well coached tough team. And no I cannot name a single player or coach for the bison.

I had no idea about the trial after the shootout. I can see why Hollywood skipped that part or it would be a 4 hour movie. I'm also not sure why curly Bill was made out to be the mastermind leader of the cowboys in the movies when apparently it was actually Ike.

Was at a wedding a couple weeks ago and met a guy that played for CU under Barnett. He started talking a little shit, so I asked him if he remembered the 2005 game, unlike Klatt. He changed the subject rather quickly. Tldr - fuck CU.- Netflix Recommendations
While his fiancee is there with him so he can't reveal how well he really knows her. I like at the very end they throw in "well it might have actually been this guy" with nothing other than the thoughts of some random self proclaimed expert. Thanks for delving into that further ...- When to take your social security
This right here. Plus if you add the chances of dying early or (no cloak room) benefits being cut because we're broke, it's a no brainer to me. Another aspect is by spreading it out you can reduce the tax hit a bit if you structure it correctly (85% of ss is taxable above a pretty low threshold). I'm 54, plan on taking it at 62 and just having the check sent to my brokerage account where it'll go into an index fund. If i ever need it, it'll be there but if not my kids get a nice chunk with a stepped up basis. But as immamac notes it makes less sense if you're still working or will spend it- It Ends With Us
On Halloween day 1998 while watching Texas Nebraska, I turned to my girlfriend and said if Texas wins we can go to whatever movie you want. That's why I found myself later that night sitting in a theater watching the cinematic classic that was Practical Magic. I doubt I'll have another day of such highs and lows ever again.- I’ve got a magic time machine

Wait, WADA will defer to the testing results of a nation? Isn't that undercutting the whole point of having a "world" anti doping agency?- Do you FIRE? Financial Independence, Retire Early
I'm not the one who posted but long term capital gains and qualified dividends are taxed at 0% if you're in the 10 or 12% bracket. Married filing jointly 12% rate tops out around 95k, with standard MFJ deduction of around 30k, so you could get 125k of income at a zero rate if you play it perfectly. Have 30k of ordinary income such as wages, taxable interest, or 401k withdrawal, and realize 95k of long term capital gains/qualified dividends.- Do you FIRE? Financial Independence, Retire Early
I'll give an update/advice. I quit working Feb 2023 at 53. Spent 6 months working on getting rid of a bunch of useless shit and getting house ready for sale (I was in Minneapolis so no fucking way I'm staying there any longer than required). Closed on house in August 2023, then loaded up my 2 dogs, few remaining possessions and youngest child in an RV and dropped him off at college. Things I've found in the last year- 1. I actually spend waaay less than I thought I would so far. Part of that is being naturally frugal but I just don't want many material things unless it's Texas/OU tickets or something. Not having rent/mortgage right now helps so YMMV. 2. I'm starting to get bored. I'm actually considering getting a part time law gig in some Colorado mountain town and settling there. I spent most of July just cruising around Colorado seeing places I'd like to live. So best advice I can give is make sure you're retiring "to" something. The type of person that can FIRE is also likely the type that needs some goal or purpose. Maybe hiking the Appalachian trail, charity work, starting a small business, two chicks at the same time etc. but it needs to be some definable goal or purpose. I originally had a goal of hitting dog parks in all of the lower 48 but once i did that the boredom set in.- Texas games among the most expensive to attend in 2024
