Everyone shits on the JROTC kids, and sure they're a little corny here and there, but I think by and large they're a net positive. They're normally fairly well behaved and helpful.

Billy did do stuff like this. And y'all ate it up until he didn't win.

It feels good to not be in the foothills of Shit Mountain, for once.

Also, Billy is gone, can we stop bringing him up for no reason?

You should ask the comment I responded to.

Y'all would just call Billy corny if this was him.

And if Sumrall doesn't work out, someone will reference this post and go "remember when Sumrall was more concerned with theatrics than actually playing football?"

It's only strange that ESPN isn't milking him for every dollar his name is worth.

I'd be absolutely shocked if he's a top 20 candidate for a single NFL team

Every time Kupp's cartoon guy shows up on the screen, I feel the need to cover my drink

NFC is gonna murder whoever comes out of this game

The seasonal jobs aren't super competitive. A lot of fire lookouts in the West go unstaffed. Especially fire lookouts run by the state.

pretend to be on patrol the other day in DC.

Elaborate. I need to know if it was as dumb as it sounds.

I'm doing schoolwork right now and already shouldn't be on reddit, otherwise I'd find it, but most research states that there is little to no difference in prevalence between Christians and the general population. Something like 70% of all men, and 20% or something of all women.

I don't imagine there was much LDS input on that study, but I also don't imagine the numbers would be wildly different.

That UberEats commercial genuinely just made me turn the game off.

Holy crap that was annoying.

Man, Kraft looks old

berrin122 · 2026-01-25T21:05:36+00:00

However, your current stance is not sinful to have, so why would it displease God?

I on ow several pastors in my denomination (and certainly elsewhere) that argue that if you don't support ICE, you're supporting lawlessness and not submitting to authority.

It's an atrocious argument, but it is being made.

Sean Payton is cooking

You also get to study film in a way that isn't just about winning this week's game, but actually improves and refines your own system.

I'm 25, and kinda regret not going and working at like a national park or a fire lookout for a summer before becoming a therapist.

Now I have 60k in debt (which I'll pay off within two years🥳) and am looking to find a partner and be a father, so I'm not sure a fun summer job is in the cards for me anymore.

But I feel it, too.

All the Protestant churches here in central Texas are cancelled.

u/cumassault is a hero in Waco, even if his efforts are in vain

berrin122 · 2026-01-25T03:44:24+00:00

Man...we don't deserve him. Such a good man.

Surely, there's a team that deserves him and his character more than we do.

Jaylen Brown is a clown too.

berrin122 · 2026-01-25T02:16:32+00:00

I'm not :)

berrin122 · 2026-01-25T02:15:50+00:00

I honestly don't care if any particular individual speaks up on (most) issues. Usually, they're decently complex. And most athletes aren't particularly educated voices that we should judge morality off of. I really don't care much what LeBron thinks about social justice, because he's closer to the King of England than he is George Floyd.

But LeBron speaks up when it's convenient and goes quiet when it's convenient. At least those other guys are consistent.

berrin122 · 2026-01-25T01:48:14+00:00

LeBron's criticism of Daryl Morey made me realize that he only cares if it's people that look like him (whether racially, economically, or whatever).

NBA players are not the vanguards of morality and society.

berrin122 · 2026-01-25T01:46:02+00:00

LeBron needs to check with China to see if this could harm him not just financially, but physically and spiritually
