Looks like I'm going to the army...yay me.


Awesomeness!!

The funny thing about life is that 2 years ago, if someone would have came up to me, talking about the damn army I would have laughed. I only signed up for JROTC for the easy credit (turns up to be a harder class that I thought). Idk. I guess the idea of 'free' education at a college is too much for me to pass up. I'm not thrilled about all the training and whatnot, but hey..what can you do? Everyone in my family keeps telling me I might die or what ever, but considering I'm from Birmingham Alabama, that doesn't really bother me. Then again, I'll probably get the fear of god in me if I'm ever deployed to a war zone( hopefully the Wars in the Middle East are over by that time). But knowing my luck, WW3 will start the day I turn 18.

    • So you can explain how he was top 10....but won't.  We need to look it up ourselves?  I googled it.  Can't find the argument based on stats and facts. 
    • Well, I think Nike has it all down to a sweet mathematical science to max revenue of what they average person will buy in terms of price....and what the average person will do with a dirty jersey.   Then they construct them accordingly.   and yeah, it's not about being tackled in them but I'm sure Nike knows exactly how each tier will react to washings...and then sunlight, heat, fading and on and on.    Just asking google about it there are tons of tiktoks, you tubes, reddit posts, etc with folks complaining about what a simple wash can do to a new one.    Your washing machine gets cooler tech....so you pay more now and it doesn't last as long .  My son's football cleats that help max speed got a hole in them before they even made it into the season this past year.     Now our football jersey's are lightweight with new mesh because it's totally better.....the end game is always because the big corporations have found the synergy between new and improved and not lasting as long.  That's my take.  I think everything is made to wear out sooner under the guise of but it's better today.
