When you have 10 heats (8 swimmers per heat) for the 50 freestyle, then you know you're in summer swim. Yeah, per gender. Easiest stroke, so everyone teaches it, or simply does it. The longer events, and the more complex strokes shrink the field(s) proportionally. If your kid is able, have them do the IM (individual medley), as the ability to swim all four strokes is very difficult. Hardest event is the 500 butterfly, as the butter takes more out of you than you think possible. In the IM, daughter would usually lead or be second in first stroke (back), and power her way to first after the fly, and third leg, the breaststroke would kick her back to 4-5, and then she'd regain to 2-3 with free. Kept working on the breast until she injured shoulder, so no butterfly, and thus, no IM.

I get that asking for a tip is annoying, especially when no real 'over-and-above' service is rendered. But when it is, usually am generous with a tip (20-25%). In California, was a law passed that food service workers receive $20 per hour. This goes for McDonald's/Krispy Kreme doughnut makers etc. What it doesn't tell you is that the white table cloth servers were elevated to keep pace, making those meals more expensive as well. Consequently, tipping at fast food dining has dwindled, as have the lines in those eating places (to go car lines as well). Makes the cost of not eating at home more expensive, especially if other wage levels haven't gone up to compensate. Oh, and when I ask, the servers say that management has cut down on number of employees, in order to maintain prices to public. So ultimately, not entirely certain that economic growth has really occurred.

Glad to have him aboard!!!

The video of his commitment made me wonder if any recruit has pulled a Corso and put on the Brutus Buckeye head?

A week ago.

How about tipping someone when all the did was turn around and pour coffee into a cup. Which incidentally, is the job itself. Nothing about going above and beyond.

I like to leave good tips. But, im not afraid to not leave a tip either.

A few weeks a go I ordered Grimaldi's for pick-up. I drove to the restaurant and picked my my pies and when I payed there was a tip option. I tipped 0. But when I do go out I tend to tip generously but it's been a while since I went to a sit down restaurant. I've become a seed oil phobic and I know they all use the cheap oil to help their margins.

RE: Julian Sayin's 77.0 completion percentage in 2025 is the best in single-season program history, is a Big Ten Record and also is third highest in FBS history (Bo Nix in 2023 at Oregon (77.4 pct.) and Mac Jones in 2020 at Alabama (77.4 pct.)).

Completion % is fantastic. But there is a threshold of a sort of 'diminishing return'.
This is a fine example. Julian had a season high in completion % vs Wisky. In doing so, there were downfield opportunities missed/not taken.

If the completion % drops a couple points in favor of being aggressive when vertically stressing defenses, then I'm all for it.

I'll take 'shit that never happened' for $500, Alex.

I despise this guy professionally . He always does this within a day of a kids commitment. He’s been wrong for over a month and then at the last minute finds out where he’s going and ruins the kids commitment.

Glad to have him but with a Deep South kid let’s get his signature in December before there should be too much excitement

Bagmen?

Entitled fucks. How many plates were delivered you fuck, how many refills were delivered you fuck, how much space did your party occupy you fuck, how many busboys had to clear that slop you left behind you fuck, how busy did you keep the bartender (you gets part of the tips) you fuck, and how obnoxious were you dipshits asking for extra ranch?

Everyone needs to wait tables for 1 year. I served my time at Longhorn in Dublin.

From 11W: His commitment is the biggest recruiting win so far in Tyler Bowen’s two-year tenure as Ohio State’s offensive line coach. Moss is the first out-of-state offensive lineman Bowen has landed at Ohio State to be ranked within the top 300 overall prospects of their recruiting class.

He will be just the second player ever from the state of Mississippi to play for Ohio State, joining former Buckeye tight end Craig Robinson, who played just one season for Ohio State in 1990.
