Started around 4:00 today, told myself I'd have it done by around 8:00 if I put my mind to it.

8:00 comes along, it's nowhere near done, I tell myself I'll have it done by 10:00 ish.

10:00 comes along, it's closer to being finished, but it's still not there. Maybe by midnight.

It's midnight, I'm getting tired, yet I still have a ways to go with the paper. Maybe by 1:30.

1:30 comes along, my writing is horrible by now, screw this, it'll be done by 3:00.

I just now finished the paper. F*ck rereading, screw revising, and editing sucks.

I know I'm not the only one who does this either.

If you are writing a major college research paper and only spending 4 hours on it.....it is guaranteed to be crap or it is a fluff course.

I worked on papers in my courses for weeks.

I wouldn't say it's a major paper. Final paper for a basic level course. Granted, the paper was horrible, but it's not a paper that's gonna determine my future.

And 4:00 PM - 3:00 AM is 13 hours. But I see what you're saying.

      ESPN’s recent grades has Charlotte with a B. I haven’t paid attention to any others really.

      Player Led culture vs Staff Led

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s simple. Win and everyone in here will say the culture is good. Dear lord the amount of time spent on these posts is hysterical. We’ve seen the end of season swoons where you can tell the team had given up with many of the same leaders that took us to playoff seasons. When your OL is decimated by injuries, it’s amazing how fast culture turns. When you get on a tear like 2015, everyone’s having fun. You need the right people regardless, but they have to win.

      Player Led culture vs Staff Led

      The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.
