Does anyone like Greek food? I had never tried it but someone gave me a gyro salad with some lamb and sauce and it was one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten in my life

Ohhhh yeah. Good Greek food is awesome. Shucks, I’ll even devour the mystery meat gyros from the el cheapo dives ran by middle easterners.

Little more expensive, but go with a hard shell carry on that has the 360° spin wheels. Golden when you’re in an airport. Just make sure the size you buy fits with your airline. Samsonite makes some good ones and they have size guides online.

Thanks. I'll look into it

Do you even KingTut grill out in Vestal? If you don’t know where Vestal is... well... you probably best just stay out at Turkey Creek or something

If IL does it, the opposite is usually correct. However, I think they are right in this case.

Et tu Glitch? 😢 This saddens me that you are for the feminization of American boys. I 1000% disagree with this bs. My 10 year old nephews play for the Carter team, something like this would destroy them.

Hell when I was a boy in the off-season we would play tackle with no gear out on the field...you wanna ban that too glitch...come on this is horsecrap.

Bring on the sissy soccer hordes.

I actually agree that tackle football isn’t good for a child developmentally. The game can still be taught fundamentally at that age without tackling. A lot of former NFLers are pushing that on their kids which caught my attention years back.

HOWEVER, this is a parental decision NOT a governmental issue.

Agree on everything, but there is a point to be made about a parent’s responsibility to protect their child. You can’t just let some parents give their kid a rattlesnake because it’s their call.

Tough decisions

Agree, but reckless endangerment laws are another story and very much needed

I used to eat there a lot before I was married. Now, hardly at all. But still, so very, very good.

I think it did. What school that expects to win will hire him?

Can't keep a staff.
Doesn't care about strength and conditioning.
Terribly stubborn.
Terrible in game decisions.

Haven't tried those. Don't go out all that much. Those in Nashville?

Santorini is downtown Nashville on 5th near Union. As of Taziki’s, there’s one here in Mt. Juliet, but they have others in the Nashville area I’m pretty sure.

Governmental safety mandates are nothing new. Parents used to think it was ok to let their kids sleep in the back windshield of cars too, but seatbelt laws put an end to that. Not to mention child seat laws and those are just safety laws around vehicles. Shoot, I sat on the ‘M’ section of the encyclopedia in the front seat many times.

Besides, football isn’t getting outlawed, just no head contact. Youth soccer took care of that internally, so no laws there. If Pop Warner football would have done the same, you wouldn’t see some knee-jerk reaction law.

I don't think the government should have anything to do with it. If parents want to keep their kids from something that is the parents call. I do think that there are dangers to kids that are pushed too heavily in sports to young. I know people that started private sports lesson for their son at 3 yrs old. I think parents should educate themselves on the pros and cons and then decide for their kids. If the child is injured, they shouldn't get to sue or complain. However, I do think IL is correct that repeated trauma from a sport like football to very young kids can cause serious growth and development issues.

Exactly.You can forgive him as a person like all of us need forgiveness; but not as a coach of college football players. You can add to the list all of the lies he told players, his unwillingness to own up to his mistakes, the undue public humiliation of players (one that I personally witnessed in a camp practice two seasons ago), playing favorites, etc.

Butch should no longer coach IMO. The good news for him is that he no longer has to due to the former UT AD's inability to hire appropriate coaching talent and negotiate contracts.
