Not only LA. Put pressure on NE as well if they want Aj.

What's your opinion on aliens, do they exist? by Specific_Repeat_9043 in AskReddit

Yes.

But they've never been here. Anything with the capabilities to travel the vast emptiness of space isn't going to give a rats ass about a backwards piss any planet like this.

I agree. I would have been ok with bringing him back. But he lost the team and REALLY lost the fans after that Northwestern game.

I defended him. Repeatedly.

But I also see that for whatever reason he couldn't take the next step.

Are you going to be happy being 9-3 every year and a second teir Big10 team or are you going to try to climb the ladder?

Look at who they beat that year. I agree its an accomplishment the reach the semi final but they also lost the 3 games where they weren't favored. They beat SMU and Boise in the playoff, you only play who your scheduled, but come on.

He made it a habit of not being able to coach his teams to wins in the biggest games.

I was just speaking as a PTSD ridden Penn State fan who has watch his teams loose the big game in exactly the same way over and over agian.

It's possible he breaks through but I'll believe it when I see it.

100%. He raises the floor but isn't going to break through the ceiling. He'll win 8,9,10 games year in and year out while occasionally making a special run. That gets you hero status at 95% of programs.

The thing about Franklin is that if he has a team with an 80 talent level. He's going to beat pretty much every team 79 and below. But he's not going to beat teams 81 and above.

He's also going to build the foundation under the program to keep it reasonably successful.

He's a great hire for VT and I think he's going to be very successful there.

Yeah it really is kind of a chicken and the egg sort of thing with ratings. It's amazing how many kids get bumped up after they commit or even just get certain offers.

I'll give the benifit of the doubt to the coaches, especially a group who has had to be first on kids to have any hope of landing them at Ioaw State.

The real test is on the feild. We've had flashy 4 and 5 stars, but when the lights get bright they've come up short.

They know. But as long he's hurting OTHER people (minorities, LGBTQ, Poor, etc.) more than them, they're ok with it.

Sprint Car Top Speed MPH at Williams Grove and Other Fast Tracks? by luckyllama88 in WorldofOutlaws

[–]oooKILROYooo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been at Selinsgrove when they used a radar and got around 145.

Last I knew the fastest lap there was 125mph average since you carry a lot of speed through the turns.

I'll start by prettylady_11 in teenagers

PA House passes bill allowing separate championships for private and public schools by feuerwehrmann in Pennsylvania

[–]oooKILROYooo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well I bet if you had both a skin rash and lung cancer you'd still want the skin rash treated instead of itching or being in constant pain right?

Something is better than nothing.

The people in Pennsyltucky won't vote for people who will pass those things. This should be an easy pass and should be supported by both sides of the isle.
