Granted the season could go either way, but it seems the Nats should content in almost every game. So long as they don’t go the route of the Wizards… contend, lead, then blow it in the final quarter.

When we bought a co-sleeper for our son who we’re expecting any day now, our dog immediately tried to jump into it. We laughed, thinking that it was probably her dream to sleep next to us, in her own bed. Little did we know that a company already existed who offered a product just for pets…
As passionate as I have been about Penn State football since I first set foot on the Penn State campus back in 1995, losing to Houston yesterday, to me, was just another loss. I really didn’t care.
I don’t care about the coaching search, other than with marginal interest and intrigue to see who will shoulder the responsibility of trying to turn the program around and reclaim Penn State’s proud tradition.
I honestly haven’t cared much about college football at all lately.
In truth, I’ve grown up. My family comes first. My wife and two and a half year old son are the focus of my attention, and the pending arrival of our next child occupies what little remaining attention I have leftover. Pro football is a diversion, and college football is primarily background noise.
It’s sad, but similar to this author, I really didn’t feel this way until the Sandusky news broke back in November. Football IS just a game.
And maybe some day I’ll feel differently. Maybe Penn State will find a coach that continues the tradition of standing for more than just athletic accomplishments. Maybe the Sandusky news will eventually fade into a long distant painful memory. Maybe this is just a passing feeling and by the end of the summer I’ll be ready to rethink my position.
Or maybe not. Maybe time will march on and Penn State football will just be something that I think about as I’m organizing old digital photos.
I like the concept. Seems to me though that if their goal is to stand apart from Tumblr, Facebook, and Twitter, the trick will be curating the content so that it remains personal, narrative content. And who is charged with that responsibility? And who makes that call? May start off all touchy feely, but whenever something gains popularity and becomes mainstream, it inevitably takes a turn towards the mundane. Just my opinion.
I agree with the author’s opinion that the large majority of accidents involving cell phones probably occur when the driver is texting, not actually using a hand’s free device. That said, I can definitely remember some drives that became a hazy memory when I arrived at my destination because I had been on the phone during the drive.
Not to say that I’m not guilty of texting, making non-hands free calls, or any call while I’m driving for that matter, but I agree it should be addressed to some degree. And now, as a father, I’m particularly more concerned with the welfare of my kids while in the car, so any move to make the roads safer for me (while I’m driving) AND them, is a good move.
