That's exactly what AK is trying to instill in his kid.

You don't fail until you quit.

Maybe that is what he is trying to instill in him. Doesn't mean that the kid is learning that. He might be learning something entirely different.

Like Fireball my mother made me sit for hours in front of a bowl of nasty vegetable soup with fat chunks until I ate it to teach me not to waste food. At the time I learned that her stew was nasty, that I had to find ways to coax the dog to eat it when she wasn't looking, and that it was unfair to expect me to choke down a meal I hated to begin with and would have never chosen.

Since then I have an aversion to vegetable soup, often overeat unnecessarily and have had to relearn the process of stopping when I am full even if there is still food on the plate, and learned to avoid my mother's cooking.

Do you think that was what she was trying to teach me??

It made you learn to problem solve creatively(feeding the dog). :D

Seriously, you do have a point with the age of the kid though p55.

You have no idea how many times that dog was a lifesaver. The really hard part was making sure the dog wouldn't still be licking his chops as he went back into the living where they were all watching TV while I sat in the kitchen by myself. It was a give away to her.:D

Yeah, better just to not feed your kids at all.

    • Also, you don't really get good value by drafting a center in the first.
    • First off, we haven't been ignoring the defense. We have drafted several defensive players, but, perhaps more importantly, we have added good pieces in free agency. Secondly, the offense was still kinda bad (27th or so depending where you look at). You can't just say we can't pick an offensive guy while acknowledging that the offense wasn't good. Everything is on the table. Like I said above, it seems kind of counterproductive to say that we shouldn't draft an offensive player high unless they're at certain positions. The offense was mediocre at best. Sure, we had an uncanny knack to win some close games at opportune times, but the offense wasn't really good. To me, it makes little sense to put limitations on who/what we should draft when we need an upgrade at so many positions. What you look at is trying to get the best value--bang for your buck so to speak--and that's the way it should be. D-Mo has used FA to set up the draft in order not to be pigeonholed into anything, and that's the way that it should be.
    • Hubert has plenty of money. I don't hate the guy. I think he a legit good guy. This is Ron Rivera all over again for me. It's just very obvious a coaching change is needed and it audka we gottaboart ways with a good guy and I'd much rather it work out but the same issues appearing again and again year after year are clearly shouting what needs to happen. With that said, if we hire Todd Golden, that's it. I'm out. I'd greatly prefer to just keep getting disappointed by Hubert. I can at least stand to root for that.
