Is it just me or is Deer Valley really pricey? Aspen level extravagance. If not, help a brother out. ⛷️❄️😀

Like any ski destination, it’s honestly sort of what you make of it. You can go there, live it up, and spend all you want at places like St Regis, Montage or Stein Erickson but we rent a condo with other families and it’s priced equal to most average ski accommodations. Usually stay near snow park lodge which is where the picture referenced is from. Highly convenient and we can drop kids off at ski school there and take the lift up mountain.

Lift tickets have gone up everywhere during Covid but I get Ikon every year which allows 7 days and pays for itself after a few days at DV alone. We just like how DV has uncrowded options for entire family, regardless of ski ability.

Aspen lodging, flights and dining have become extremely expensive. Haven’t been in a few years but I was taken back last visit. Special place but the LA and NY crowds have ruined aspects of it.

Steamboat is a great place for quality at a reasonable price. I stay away from Summit Co due to crowds.

Headed to KFC?

As a matter of fact, yes. 😅

We're (my son, son-in-law) are taking my center console on a big trip to the Bahamas from Ft Lauderdale. Years ago when we (my dad, and a couple of buddies) fished on Norris (trolled for monster stripers) we'd stop and get a bucket of KFC on the way and a case of beer. My kids want to do that before we head out. They've already looked for KFC's near the launch site.

Saban plans to speak out for 'meaningful change'

Nick Saban said Wednesday he plans to take stronger stances on issues such as NIL and the transfer portal because "what we have now is not college football."

We will pass on anything you suggest, little Nicky. Double Gauldens your direction.

Saban was doing this sh-t all along, and is doubling down in "retirement," now with the bully pulpit of ESPN to campaign against parity, reinstitute Bama's illegal bag game through caps, and to do his utmost to influence the teams selected and not selected for the playoffs, as well as to influence recruits' views of teams via broadcasts.

He tells Alabama and its fans (where he still works and has an office) that he is forever a Bammer and will work tirelessly to promote Bama's interests in retirement.

Then he tells these imbecile media sycophants that he is a neutral party and an elder statesman. And they repeat it like a tape recorder.

Saban is desperate to bring Alabama's ability to cheat with impunity back and a reprise of his bag game. NIL and the portal are creating parity.

Saban is behind the immoral and grossly illegal* on-going NCAA hit on Tennessee. He didn't like getting beat out for Nico. He didn't like getting his azz beat and being outcoached in Knoxville. He saw for himself the level of extreme blatant rigging of officiating by the Birmingham office that was required for him to "beat" (or be corruptly gifted with a crooked "win") versus Tennessee in Birmingham last year.

He is really a terrible person.

He brags on Sankey and Greg Byrne in the article. Sankey oversees the corrupt officiating and scheduling indispensable to Saban and Bama.

Bryne is involved with Saban in Bama's illegal corruption of state and local police and the district attorney's office.

Byrne (together with two small-school coaches or league offices also in Alabama) are on the 12-member NCAA selection committee for basketball. We already see the end-of-year gauntlet that Sankey made for the basketVols. Now keep an eye on Alabama's influence on the Tournament seeding this year. UNC is on the committee too.

* Ex post facto rules tailored for a specific target, presumption of guilt rather than innocence in proceedings for the same purpose, selective enforcement and grants of cheating-with-impunity status to favorites to corrupt outcomes.

Just dont like it. Dont like waffles, although I make fresh from scratch para mis ninos.

And I absolutely abhor fried chicken. Just thought of it makes my skin crawl, gross.

Too many reasons to say, most notably when something comes through your nose in form of vomit. You tend to not ever want to taste it again. Also, cleaning up vomit, after your pregnant wife got food poisoning from KFC, tends to do the same.
