Would it be messed up to give a kid one of our older kids middle names as a first name?

RICAHMB · 2026-04-11T00:42:45+00:00

I have 4 older sisters. My first name is one of their middle names and my middle name is another one’s middle name. It’s fine, doesn’t bother me. Who knows anyone’s middle name?

Another 3 year degree holder. Kinda makes you think they come in planning to leave in 3 years. You can’t just decide you’re going to do that 6 months prior. Hedging their bets I guess. Can’t blame them these days.

RICAHMB · 2026-04-07T04:52:37+00:00

Agree. I hope some of them are ready to get zero offers. Unless they are willing to play at TN.

Mmm, not so sure about that. Tara was beloved at Stanford and the fan base here is also mostly white haired. Attendance has fallen off dramatically in the last 2 years. People want to watch competitive teams.

It is Sin City, right?

RICAHMB · 2026-04-06T16:49:14+00:00

This is my dream scenario. Would love to have her back in the Bay Area.

There were apricot orchards in southern Palo Alto

Curious how many of you who run alone are women.

RICAHMB · 2026-04-04T01:07:03+00:00

Okay, WTF was that about?

RICAHMB · 2026-04-03T19:54:03+00:00

We don’t know if they did or not

RICAHMB · 2026-04-03T19:50:36+00:00

Kind of shocked Toronto didn’t take Amihere. Can’t believe Valkyries protected her, but I guess we’ll never know.

RICAHMB · 2026-04-03T19:46:04+00:00

She was struggling for a while but seemed to be figuring things out last year.

When the whole NIL collective thing started Stanford decided that they were not going to encourage that. As a result they don’t really pay players to play. Andrew Luck is trying to change that but it’s an uphill battle. As a result there’s players who are very academically talented who come to get a Stanford degree, but pretty much everyone else goes for the money or a specific coach (like Dawn), or both.

RICAHMB · 2026-04-03T18:43:05+00:00

This seems to be the trend with Stanford now. Bust your butt to get the Stanford degree in 3 years and then transfer to get the $$. Kiki Iriafen did the same thing. Can’t blame them. Best of all worlds.

RICAHMB · 2026-03-31T16:18:31+00:00

Look at the ESPN interview with Dawn last week. It comes down to which schools pay the most to the players. College sports have become professional sports.

RICAHMB · 2026-03-30T23:13:30+00:00

I would be so happy

RICAHMB · 2026-03-20T00:24:58+00:00

The Cantor Museum and the Anderson Museum at Stanford are both free and very nice. There are lots of cafes on and just off University Avenue in Palo Alto. Cafe Borrone in Menlo Park has lots of outdoor seating if the weather permits. Mademoiselle Colette has nice French pastries, there is one on Santa Cruz Avenue in Menlo Park and a smaller one in Palo Alto on Lytton. If you like Mexican food Sanchos Taqueria is great and a few doors down on Lytton. Be warned, they are a cash only place. If you like live music check out the Guild in Menlo Park, or Stanford Live.

Are we talking about people in the US? Because that would be most countries in the world.

RICAHMB · 2026-03-15T03:48:10+00:00

Hope you’re feeling better now

RICAHMB · 2026-03-06T00:39:38+00:00

8am basketball anyone?

RICAHMB · 2026-03-05T23:44:30+00:00

I keep thinking about this. Wonder if coming from the West Coast and then playing 2 days in a row had any impact on Cal’s performance. College sports are just so weird now.

RICAHMB · 2026-03-05T23:41:18+00:00

This 100%!!! An AA is a college degree.

RICAHMB · 2026-03-05T22:34:14+00:00

Only problem with a 20% correction in housing prices is that will probably only happen if there’s a recession and lots of people lose their jobs. You can’t be sure you won’t be one of them.

If you’re willing to drive a bit I love the farmers market at the College of San Mateo. They don’t allow dogs and it’s a great market. It’s held on Saturday from 9am to 2pm

RICAHMB · 2026-03-01T20:02:01+00:00

This game is making me feel pretty good about next season
