      I was talking with Mrs. SkinyUte about this the other day. We have three kids, ages 15 and 11 (twins). As they get older and consider partaking in something, I would prefer that they smoke weed over drinking and (obviously) any sort of harder drugs. 100 out of 100 times, weed would be the far better choice.

      I would, of course, prefer that they don’t indulge of any of the above. But if they’re like 75%+ of kids who do try something, weed certainly seems like the lesser evil. I think back on all the insanely dangerous things we did as underage drinkers, and it’s a miracle that we’re even still alive.

      Maybe the field could open up and swallow them both?

      My babysitter had to leave at midnight, so I would have left then regardless of what was happening in the game.

      Thanks for your concern though.

      Plus, we had the missed FG in the first half.

      So did we.

      I’ve been attending Utah games for 25 years and Saturday was the hottest game I’ve ever been to. Felt like a freaking microwave in the stands.

      I gave three of our tickets to a friend who was SO excited to bring his kids to their first Utah game, and they barely made it to halftime before having to bail out because both kids were feeling sick from the heat.

      While we stuck it out, I don’t blame anyone for leaving. It was utterly miserable.

      Here’s a closer view, if you want to get a better look at the pictures.

      Also, nobody is going to prison for smoking or possessing weed. It just is not happening.

      Might not be getting imprisoned, but there are certainly lots and lots getting arrested. (around 170,000 in 2021 alone).

      Probably because people (including myself) prefer our players aren’t funded by Saudi billionaires.

      So anytime I hear about a boss who is labeled an asshole…my first reaction is “I get it. You want to get stuff done, you have to be an asshole.”

      To a point, sure. But I’ve worked with way too many “leaders” whose only two modes were “Off” and “1000% Asshole”.

      There definitely needs to be a balance, unless you’re fine with simply churning through employees every other day.

      Maybe they’ll post that vid to youtube.

      I hope they do. I put in my mom’s picture from the Rose Bowl as well (she passed just after the USC game in 2022) and would love to see if it’s in there.
