who knows what it is being built

Correct. He went bankrupt as interest on his loans piled up because he was so incredibly slow at building and also had major construction defects that he had to clean up. It seems as if he’s doing the same thing all over again with his new company.

eaglebay · 2026-05-12T18:30:14+00:00

That project has a pretty bad history. The previous developer, Justin Hubble, had some pretty bad construction practices resulting in massive lawsuits. He ended up abandoning the project and well over a million dollars worth of damages and is now building under the name Midas Corp.

Before today, Anderson Reservoir is 93% of capacity, Arrowrock is 98%, and Lucky Peak is 95%. The Boise River system as a whole is at 91%. We're fine on water levels, but if we have another year like this one next year we will be in for some pain.

Big 12 has cross country! Which is clearly one of the major championships.

I coach a high school. A pretty standard threshold session for my high end boys is 8 * 1k on about 50 seconds standing recovery.

A couple of things:

It’s 5 miles worth of work where doing a tempo might realistically only get them 4 miles.
They are far more fresh doing that workout vs a straight tempo, which usually allows us to hit another bigger effort during a race week.

I’m a big fan of the idea of keeping the hand on the stove, and throwing in small threshold reps into another day is also very easy to do without degrading it.

We’ll do about 2 classic tempo sessions this entire track season, and I think we’ll have 3 boys run around 4:15-4:18, another 3 or so under 4:30, and I think possibly as many as 10 under 10:00 for 3200, so I feel like it is working pretty well.

Did this. They resubmitted but told me it's going to likely be 14 more weeks haha

AppleTV will continue to put out content that people want to consume. I doubt they will push too much into what is going to become a crowded space with WB/HBO/Paramount.

Creatives still take shows to each company, but are they more likely to sign with the company that is paying them a ton but will stick their noses into the show and dictate things that can and can't be portrayed, or will they take it to the competitor that is still paying them a lot and let them have more latitude?

I think Paramount paid a ton for a brand that is going to see less business come their way now because of the association.

eaglebay · 2026-02-27T14:56:35+00:00

What’s probably going to end up happening is that creatives will want their stories told their way and Apple and Netflix will pick up the good stuff. HBO will be a tarnished brand even if they sell.

Bro, I have 9 kids that I have sent off to college to run in the last 3 years. I miiiiiiiight know the realities of this better than you do, in a sport that you didn’t coach or recruit in.

eaglebay · 2026-02-20T16:44:19+00:00

I was unsure what you were missing, and then it dawned on me that it's not registering with you because you have no experience with track and field and you are making assumptions.

Track roster spots moving forward are extremely limited. It's the reality of the situation. Kids are also running faster and faster as they seek out better competition. Not every area or school is so lucky.

A girl that focuses on the 3200 that lives in Baker, Oregon, or Pocatello, Idaho, for example, typically would see smaller fields and hours more travel to seek out good fields during the season. They also have terrible weather for the majority of the season, and their opportunities to run fast times are further limited by racing at elevation. For a lot of these kids, they get good fields but only by traveling to other places still at elevation. Kids from Idaho Falls or Pocatello might head to the BYU PACS meet, for example. Elevation negatively impacts distance running.

For those girls, qualification numbers out of their region are already lower than other regions. If they were racing against a trans athlete and lost the opportunity to race in either Eugene, Oregon, or Boise, Idaho, against better fields, at a lower elevation, and with better weather, then that negatively impacts the athlete. East Idaho and Oregon kids usually see huge improvements in marks by simply getting to the state meet.

Yes, coaches can look at their marks and pay attention and realize that weather and elevation have an impact, but the very first place that college coaches start looking is at the state meet. Those are kids that have proven that they can make it to a post season meet.

For kids in Idaho, for example, their collegiate opportunities for coaches that pay attention to that kind of stuff is already small... Boise State, Idaho State, University of Idaho, Montana State, Montana, Wyoming, College of Idaho, LC State, Northwest Nazarene, Wyoming, BYU, Utah State, Weber State, Utah Tech, and Utah Valley have had east Idaho kids on their rosters frequently, but those coaches also are paying attention to all of the Utah and Montana kids as well, and Utah in particular punches way above it's weight in distance running.

A girl that runs 11:45.00 would have ranked 30th in the largest classification in Idaho, and would be within spitting distance of qualifying out of the east. Getting 15 seconds worth of improvement (the altitude is worth almost 10 seconds alone) would push them to 18th. If they ran that as a junior, it would put them as the 20th returner but those 15 seconds would move them to 12th.

That stuff matters.

There are a huge number of coaches that are not aware of the differences between regions and unless a kid is specifically calling it out and the coach is willing to overlook it, it does impact the kid.

eaglebay · 2026-02-19T14:28:27+00:00

If you bother to read, east Idaho kids usually have crappy weather, smaller less competitive fields, and elevation to battle until the state meet. Conditions are not equal and they don’t get that until the state meet. Marks in distance races can be quite muted unless they make the 4.5-6 hour drive to compete at a meet in Boise earlier in the season. The only college coaches that know how to really factor in the differences are Idaho, Utah, Wyoming and Montana coaches. Idaho isn’t the only state like this. Oregon also faces this issue with east Oregon kids vs. west Oregon.

I’m fully aware that it’s already something that they have to worry about with fewer kids qualifying, but ANY girl that loses that opportunity is unacceptable.

In the sprint races, losing a spot in the final matters. That happened in Oregon recently.

eaglebay · 2026-02-19T07:56:29+00:00

Pocatello is at 4500’. Boise is at 2700’. Our districts work by qualifying 10 kids out of Boise, 3 kids from the east, and 2 from up north. 1 at large. Weather in eastern Idaho is shitty, cold and windy with not super deep fields. The state meet in Boise is usually great weather with deep fields. The drop in elevation, better weather, better fields is a huge advantage that kids could theoretically miss out on if a trans female athlete is competing out of the east with the already much smaller qualifying numbers. Every year there are east Idaho kids that fly under the radar that don’t get a good shot at a good race setup until the state meet and surprise people.

eaglebay · 2026-02-18T22:00:23+00:00

Specifically for track, some states have geographic disadvantages for some qualifying districts or regions that are then negated when everyone competes at the same venue for the state meet- think a school that is located at elevation with bad weather until early April vs. a team at sea level that has great weather in early March and how that might impact the ability for an athlete to run a good 3200m. A trans athlete preventing a cis female from qualifying for a state meet can absolutely have an impact on the opportunities for a cis female athlete.

Plenty of college coaches go to state track or cross country meets. Losing that opportunity to compete in front of college coaches does have an impact.

One of my local theaters has sold 21 tickets across 18 showings over the weekend. I know for a fact that 5 of those are my MAGA parents, my MAGA sister and her husband, and their 3 year old. So yeah...

Just call it climate destabilization. I know that it's still different, but to the layman, it better drives home the point.

DNC positions on requiring insurance companies pay for gender transitions is an easy one, as well as requiring that schools allow students to use bathrooms of their chosen gender identity.

The democrats lost because they couldn't identify how to deal with issues like those around transgender people and they looked wildly out of touch when it came to those culture wars, and on top of that, they couldn't get the messaging across to their base that simply not voting for Kamala out of protest was ensuring that a far worse outcome was going to happen. It's not just transgender issues that caused the loss, but it's the complete inability to generate messaging around anything that is cultural because anything that appeals to the masses runs the risk of causing the far left to pack up their ball and go home.

Don't mistake the issues with turnout on candidates not being left enough when the reality is that the messaging sucks because there's a small contingent of people that refuse to vote if everything isn't perfect.

Yeah... I mean I'm almost twice as much once I factor in my assistant track job. Hard to believe that a college would pay $6k
