This is why you don't let your 16 year old daughter sail around the world alone...

I hope she is ok.....

Abby Sunderland, the California 16-year-old who recently set out to become the youngest person to sail solo around the world, may be lost at sea after losing contact with her land-based crew and activating emergency positioning beacons, according to an ABC News report.

Sunderland had been combating 20-plus foot waves and high winds in the Indian Ocean, at least 400 miles from the nearest ship and even farther from land.

I thought she we too young when she start this trip. She couldn't have gotten enough experience for a trip like that at just 16. Everyone who has attempted it has always run into major problems: broken mast, loss of auto pilot, hull breach.

It's never been an easy task even without breakdowns.

Very little sympathy here.

Hope she is ok, but it isn't like the ocean came in to her room in the middle of the night and took her, or some deranged Dutchman took a fancy to her on vacation.

The whole family signed up for this nonsense.

And I hope no public money is used for a rescue attempt. I really hate that. When tax dollars go to rescuing dumbasses. You should be required to carry "dumbass adventurer insurance".

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By BrisbanePanther · Posted

      I mean in this economy, companies have to be smarter with their spending. Sending reporters to Charlotte to cover a moribund, Pop Warner-level franchise is the ultimate waste of money that should get execs fired. If the media were being kept out, they'd report that--it's the most self-important profession in the world. Even for the locals who know "Panthers suck yet again" stories get them no clicks. Bottom line, no conspiracy here. They're just not worth covering.

      New thoughts on kickoffs

      By KillerKat · Posted

      why cant they just let teams have their kicker kick it and then run off the field? Thats the only thing he can do and he also cant recover an onside. The kicking team will have 12 men to start, including the kicker, and then he runs off.  the new rule seems complicated. Not sure if Im going to like it or not. If they wanted more returns, they shouldve just gone back to the old way.
