Talking heads are saying Sean Mcvay might walk away from the Rams. What the hell? He’s 36 , just won a Super Bowl and after 1 bad season he might quit?

He’s marshmallow soft just like the rest of his generation. If I were an NFL GM or owner, there is NO WAY I’d ever hire him as the head coach of my team if he quits on the Rams once things started going poorly. That’s not leadership.

If he quits it's to go to broadcasting. Where I bet he's get paid the same, or more, and work a hell of a lot less. Just got married too. I agree, if he quits, I wouldn't hire him. But I get why he'd leave. All sorts of rumors in the off season about him being courted by the networks.

I won’t blame him if he leaves but if I was an owner I‘d never hire him to be my coach.

Left my lights on low recently and killed my battery. Luckily i was on a hill...even moreso that downhill was behind us. I told her to pay attention to how i did, talked through what i was doing as i rolled it down the hill and popped reverse to start it up without ever having to get out of the car. Pretty sure she thinks i am a wizard for that one. I have never in my life laid my eyes on anything...manmade, Created, etc that is as priceless as a "Daddy's Girl." She is the reason i still endure.





I have had them get up a foot or 2 on steep exit ramps etc so that now, when i am on a ramp like that...i watch my 6, and when a car starts coming up and gets about 50yds or so back from me, i let my car roll backwards intentionally 2 or 3 feet just to let em know to stay the Hell back. It works bout 80% of the time. For the other 20%, i just make sure not to roll backwards... I have been on hills so steep with a chump far too close and cheated by pulling up the Ebrake and not releasing it until i let the clutch out a touch, right when i could feel the wheels starting to pull me forward..and then quickly releasing the brake. I taught my daughter how to cheat like that too lol. Shes only 14 but she can drive my little Honda coupe.

I've used the parking brake a few time like that. On really steep hills it's sometimes a better alternative than getting both feet moving in sync on three pedals and not stalling the car.

The first manuals I drove were three on the tree. Then when stationed on Okinawa, I bought an old Austin (British) clunker - three or four on the tree. I've forgotten how it went, but the shift pattern was more or less backwards from US cars.
