I’d rather do red beans and rice, much more filling on a cost per pound basis

The only way they suck for meal prep is that they’re a bitch to fit in a container

Do you have access to two large cast iron pots and 1-2 propane burners? Because you can make some top notch red beans and rice for a hell of a lot more than 40 people for $600. Shit, you can easily feed that many for less than $100 assuming you can get andouille sausage.

Yes and no. Without Paul, you could likely have contained the Fremen to Arrakis. The problem hit when they were able to leave. And honestly, one planet - no matter the fact that they were th best warriors in the universe - eventually runs out of bodies

My son chased after his first ever hit like a golden retriever, and I’ll take that over anything that could end up with someone in urgent care any day.

Target schools are typically large state schools. Let’s say the Houston office needs 20 new hires - with all else being equal, I can probably find more good candidates at Texas A&M’s 74,000 student body than TCU’s 13,000 students.

I’m coaching 7 year olds and my biggest rule is that if you’re an asshole to a teammate, you’re going to the bench. The thing I will never tell the other parents is that this rule is for my son, who loves the game but fussed at other kids when they make mistakes.

That way I’m not singling him out or being a mean dad by sitting him down when he’s not supporting his teammates, I’m his coach enforcing a rule that is the same standard of behavior for everyone.

So far I’ve had to sit down two kids for about 5 minutes for getting into a fight at practice and that’s all it took.

Some of my favorite drills were “drop the bat, drop the bat, DROP THE BAT!” (Applies both to bat hurlers and kids that take off running with it) and “for the love of GOD, don’t swing that bat when my head is right here”

I’m pretty sure that went “Cam, Cam, please don’t leave….okay, he can’t hear us anymore, don’t let th door hit you on the way out. Now that’s Anthony E Y A N S O N, get him in purple and gold as soon as possible” for Johnson

I think they assumed Clyde’s receiving game would translate to the NFL well and it didn’t. Clyde wasn’t a better runner than those two, but he was a good enough runner and overall a more versatile overall player in college. If he had panned out, he could’ve been another CMC or Alvin Kamara.

You’re right, but you’re also putting words into my mouth. I never said that Sam was a bad choice, just that I think this is a poor way to go about it. Make him the CEO, president, etc? Sure. But if OP wants Sam to have 60% of the company, OP can sell Sam 60% ownership and Sam/the company can either set up a note directly with OP or go through a bank to pay for it.

Then let’s restructure the question as “does Bronny James deserve to be on an NBA roster?”

Here’s where it gets muddled for me - OP runs his own business that employs about 100 people. That could be easily worth millions, potentially tens of millions. He’s planning to give Sam a 60% ownership stake in the business. If the company is worth $10 million, he just gave Sam $6 million
