Recruiting Football Talk VIII

A single-line guide to wealth:

Consume less than you accumulate.

Live within your means

I was born 30 years too late.

Wow. You must have been an enormous baby.

 

[screenthis]

Live within your means

So many 'get rich' schemes out there and yet, it pretty much comes down to that. In fact, that was the entire 'Rich Dad/Poor Dad' book. I could have skipped the whole book.

Alternatively. sell more hookers and blow than you consume.

Even adjusted for legal drinking age, down by 75%

You've already got hairy palms. . . probably can't see very well either. . .

You're the one talking about jerkying your meat, pervert!

Pretty sure if you are both buying and selling in the pimp game you’re doing it wrong. I came from a time when many HBO shows covered this in great detail.

Yea but Dodgers have more sense than to pay trash can guy $40 million a year. Best year Bregman had was when they cheated the whole season..

Star power is undefeated as long as a glimmer of talent remains. Someone will always OVERPAY for a shot at it.

these Conan and Schlansky clips are funny. gotta go till end.

I call BS. No way to accurately tally that number with 80% of the generation being too young to buy it.

Statistics weren’t my strong suit but I’m pretty sure you can get an adequate sample size with 20% of a population.

Doing my part to keep the boomers in the lead!

No, a sample size needs to be randomized across the entire population. Or you'd need to compare it to the same subset of other generations when they were 21-25 years old instead of comparing it to entire other generations. It's just bad study and sampling design all around.

Sounds to me like you’re letting “perfect” be the enemy of “good” as it relates to a stupid internet clickbait headline.

Either that or we need to let the kids buy booze!

 

[VolNash17]

LV’s about to tip off. They should be in for a strong finish to Kim Caldwells first season

 

[VolNash17]

Favored in every remaining game, 23-6 (10-6) in SEC play year 1. Top 5 seed in tournament and #2 recruiting class coming in next year with a few returnees

 

[VolNash17]

That was a phenomenal hire by Danny

Why I’m not worried when Barnes retires

Gen Z is now 13-28.

Almost half are of legal drinking age. Extrapolate as you will, it isn't that close.

It's not just pure stats either, plenty of articles on younger folks foregoing alcohol. Partly driven by having grown up online, where every photo lives forever, and not wanting to age their skin and eyes with alcohol use. Part also to do with shifts toward other substances, "cali sober" if you will. Further pushing overall trends is a better understanding of the link between alcohol and cancer. The whole red wine health angle by the industry has been well exposed at this point. The memes about moms needing a glass by noon just to get through the day passed cringe-level years ago, especially with the increased awareness of mental health and self-care. The cool factor, if there ever was one, has been lost in recent years. Not near cigarettes yet, but trending that way.

But it is certainly a legit trend. NA bars are opening up. Craft beer isn't what it used to be. Not just Gen Z, but they are leading the way.

ESPN commentator falls for troll, points to SEC's .500 ...​

Carl Ravech thinks the SEC has slipped for going .500 in conference games. ESPN is a joke.

No, it's really really bad statistics methodology. It's not even good.
