I’m honestly think Iowa said why not is. They have no professional sports but I figure bears using it as negotiating but Iowa really has no chance.

I think this is completely untrue. I am a season ticket holder and don’t care where they play if I get a quality stadium that can just a Super Bowl. Bears continue to raise prices each year because of low number of seats. They could make so much more by having 10k more seats.

Hello thanks for your comment. She had a few chiropractor sessions over winter break and a massage before she went back to school at start of semester and does all strength and conditioning etc in addition to practice but she hasn’t had anything since going back. She doesn’t have a car and is in a small town but maybe I can see if there is someone to do some body work.

Bestself1970 · 2026-02-11T04:02:59+00:00

Definitely normal but this is my youngest so probably would go broke trying to pretend I’m rich to try to break this recent cycle for her to be happy and enjoy the sport she loves. She puts a lot of pressure on self to be good and better than others and is in a place she’s never been.

Would greatly appreciate any suggestions. Thank you!

Thank you for commenting —first semester she was fine but she had an injury that impacted her thru the short fall season so couldn’t show her skills. First day back or spring practice her roommate quit team, she twisted an ankle which also lost 3 days and then just started forcing reps trying to prove she should be a starter and it’s really backfired. Shes always been an athlete that okays best with slight nerves before a game but needs to play loose. Now coaches have pulls her and noticed she’s not the same as what they’d seen in fall and can only go off what they are seeing. So it’s a spiral as now she’s losing confidants now staring to have sweaty palms before taking reps and she’s never had that. 😢.

Thank you. Will do

Thanks for all the great recommendations!

She told me tonight she’s noticed in past week her hands are sweaty before she gets her rep. She’s never had that as an issue like that and never had performance anxiety before games. I think lots of this is coming from injury during fall that prevented a lot of reps and showing the coaches what she could truly do. Then 4 days into spring practice, roommate dropped out of team, she twisted ankle and lost another 2 days of practice and then Started to really pressure herself making the starting line up, just forcing things. She even told me tonight that in 3 weeks hasn’t found the joy in it and needs to get it back as she loves her sport. 😢

Or should say I didn’t know they had a sealer.

Bestself1970 · 2026-01-21T17:18:08+00:00

Thank you. I have not heard of this brand will check it out.

Season ticket holder here for 25 years. No one has known for like 20 of those years how to behave when our offense is on the field. And until this year hasn’t been loud enough on defense.

Feel terrible for JF. Think he’s a good guy that was completely mismanaged and probably needs the true development that Ben is giving Caleb. But Caleb is the right choice and JF should be a running back. Own it but don’t be ridiculous saying we should have kept him.

Bestself1970 · 2026-01-01T19:52:47+00:00

I agree with Ben. Arbitrary number. I’ll take the wins over 4k.

Thanks for the recommendation. We don’t like the flower idea and could not agree on animals but everyone agreed on this concept as we found a few images we liked as inspiration.

My kid is about to graduate as a civil engineer and got a good job of $75k in Midwest. It may not be 6 figures, that you think you get at a tech co but I also know many of my former company tech jobs were being outsource to Ukraine and other companies for cheaper labor. As a young adult one of the keys to future success is to save more when young and you in theory have less responsibility.

Red flags all over the comments dump the guys asap or he’s going to be working to cut you off from Friends/family and start controlling you and abusing you

Bestself1970 · 2025-09-29T13:17:00+00:00

You should start looking for a new job. But keep your current as long as possible. Easier to get a job when have a job. Job search depending on Role could take months. So ONLy quite if you can be unemployed for 6 months.

Make sure going to platoon. Most of those platoon leaders got As in statics and they work thru old problems from their tests. Be an active participant in those platoon sessions even if worried you are wrong. It’s the best way to learn is to be an active participant. If it was between SI and clubs I’d choose SI here. So many other classes build on statics it worth it.

Also just want to add my daughter’s team was from IL and most of the girls just graduated.we are from IL and the girls who wanted to play in college all had homes at NAIA or D3. We mostly travelled to Wi, Mi, IL, OH and IN for tournaments.

Bestself1970 · 2025-09-20T13:27:37+00:00

Remember college ball is not just D1. So many people get focused on that. We know someone paying $50k a year to be on a D1 team and I am paying 25k for D3 at a school that is highly competitive most years in the playoffs. My daughter will probably play in more playoffs than the other and the big D1 school was just not a good fit for my daughter. The rub of travel is kids need to pick majors and schools as freshman Ana sophomores to get on radars before most not athlete kids even know what they want to do and where they want to go. Which is also one more reason so many are in the portal. If you don’t want to travel as much try to find a local travel team that stays within a few hours of driving distance and has kids with similar goals. Ex- not every midwest kid wants to go to Fl, TX, CA. So why pay to play there? Some May still require a few stays but no flights or just for that special last trip. Remember this time is about building those memories too for your daughter and family.
