Mine is 16 as well. Everyone tells me that she will come back, but she may not make it out of teenage years.

LOL, almost all of us start out thinking our babies are the smartest, most talented, and most beautiful to ever draw breath. Then as time races past us we manage where we started to where we really are. I recall having a session with one of mine during the teen years where I outlined that my expectations had been reduced to nothing more than that youngster WOULD graduate high school and BE drug free. If it took my sitting beside the youngster every day in class and then coming home to a room with nothing in it and the child reduced to nothing but clothing consisting of underwear while at home, so be it. Think North Korean prison cell was where we were heading. Not only did the youngster turn it around, became great academically went on to the The Hill graduated and is a very successful member of society and business to this very day. Proud of all my children as luckily they have all done well with how they are managing their and their children's lives so far. It can happen to you but man if you have a strong willed child, they will take you to places you never knew existed! LOL Good luck parents!!

There are some saying their sources have said the MOU is signed....would you mind giving a % on if you feel the MOU has been signed ?

I have personally been told the MOU is signed, but I have not seen it with my own eyes. Therefore, I'm not going to claim it as fact. Although I do trust who I've heard it from.

I cannot find odds for next TN coach on that off shore website. Only FL..which you have to give 150 for Scott Frost. I believe I read on this thread, that JG was down to getting 150. Does this mean JG is a lock?
Click to expand...
Seen that on Twitter as well. MITBeaver stated once the odds go down... The white whale has been locked. Not to mention there has been white whale mentions a
on Vol Twitter.

How reliable it was idk.. but. There was a nugget released stating gruden was a lock but he and his wife wanted to respect Jones by letting him play out the season.

If this be true... switch to DISH network. ASAP. Charlie Ergin pulled this through. It will be Football Time in Tennessee in traditional sense next fall.

Speaking of...any guy here had this done yet? Can you explain to me what it's like? I've got 3 kids now, and this is probably the next option for me.

Yup I had it. Wasn't bad at all. Had a bag of frozen peas on em for 24 hours and tylenol was all I needed for the pain.

I recommend having it done by a Urologist rather than a Family Med doc.

Was the healing process worse than going through the actual operation part?

Currie will not jeopardize losing Gruden just for the sake of keeping Butch for the rest of the season, but his desire is, and has been, to fire and hire within a very short time period.

Personally, I believe that Butch gives this team their best chance to win the next 3 games. It's not a good chance, but I don't think an interim has anywhere near the same chance. Currie believes this, too. He's ok with the fan base being upset with him for the time being. If/when he hires Gruden, he knows we'll all be back.

The thing is, I believe most Vol fans are now so disillusioned with Butch (myself included) that I think a lot more fans just want to see him off the sidelines coaching instead of going through an entire month more of this clown show for the possibility of a crappy bowl game.

Personally, I don't know if my heart can take an entire month more of this. The anticipation if killing me.

Had 4 buddies do it. All have said you are back to normal in 48 hours or less. Nothing a frozen bag of peas won't solve. 😃

Good morning all! What incredible day to be alive! We drove to Knoxville on Friday and the trees on fire with red and orange and yellow leaves beaming from the branches! Football is important but not the most important. We have vol brothers and sisters on here fighting cancer, having babies facing unemployment and I’m sure countless other life circumstances! On this amazing day the Lord has made, let’s be grateful for all we have! Make today awesome! Oh and, Gruden is coming. ??

With all due respect, I think Currie is less concerned with how disillusioned the fans are and more concerned with what's best for the players. I'm sick of Butch too, but I can respect what's best for the players. Give your tickets to kids who would enjoy the game and go fishing for the next 3 Saturdays. Patience is key.

I had a co-worker say, "If you told me last week that I would be sitting on a bag of frozen peas, and I would like it, I would have said you're crazy. Trust me I liked it."
