Pick your poison...

Child Stars: Then and Now

Rock Stars: Then and Now

The respective ages of some of the biggest rock stars of my teen years:

- Joan Jett, 51

- Eddie Van Halen, 55 (David Lee Roth will turn 57 this year)

- Pat Benatar, 57

- Jon Bon Jovi, 58

- Bruce Springsteen, 60

- the "Heart" sisters, 56 and 60

- Stevie Nicks, 62

- Grace Slick (Jefferson Airplane/Starship), 70

Other stuff I find mildly depressing...

- "Ralphie" from "A Christmas Story" is now 40 and working as a producer/director.

- Little Raven Simone of the Cosby Show was born the same year I graduated high school.

- Steve Perry of Journey has had hip replacement surgery.

- one of the Family Matters kids wound up in porn

- "Zach" from "Saved by the Bell is pushing 40 ("Screech" has a sex tape).

- One of the kids from "Hanson" is married and has a son.

Of course, there's also the fact that half the child stars - from the "Sixth Sense" kid to the Olsen Twins to Lindsay Lohan - have all been in rehab for one thing or another. Plus the knowledge that while the older stars of "Diff'rent Strokes" are still alive, two of the three child stars are dead.

Oy :(

For those who hadn't seen it:

New Panthers assistant OL coach Ray Brown played quite a while in the NFL. It came home to him just how long when he met a new young teammate with a familiar name.

He walked over and greeted the kid, telling him "You know, there was another guy with the same name as you playing in the NFL back when I first started."

The kid replied "I know. He's my Dad" :eek:

It was at that moment that Brown decided it might be time to think about retiring :lol:

      Carolina Way is gone, it went out the window with the Belichick hiring. They'll hire the best coach they can, ignoring everything else if possible.    Athletic reports that the school's top two targets are Tommy Lloyd and Billy Donovan. They don't care the buyout for a coach either, they and the boosters are willing to spend and will be going outside of the coaching family tree 100%.

      I don't think it's a homer though when I really feel this team can beat anyone.  The points that can be scored in bunches when the big three are on has high potential.  Moose has effort for days and IMO is the heart of the team.  And didn't see Miles becoming the team "vet" in the starting lineup just roleplaying lol.   We have to limit the turnovers though (Brandon Miller I'm looking at you bud, you are a bad ball handler) and some little things.   Colby off the bench is a cheat code and him and Kaulk have a nice little game going with the picks.    Sion playing every game and just getting better each game.  He has grit.  Grant and Green also grit.  We need replace Tillman with PJ Hall though.  Tillman looks like someone that shouldn't be on an NBA court, or at least with this team, he's just too slow for this tempo.   Even McNeely looked decent tonight and can drive.   If Kaulk and Moose could even be like 30% 3pt shooters man....
