Easily the best. Over the nearly 40 years my wife and I have been together we've had many cats (dogs too). After a while you start to see patterns. Orange tabbies are almost exclusively male and just the easiest going, least catty cats. Almost a dog-like temperament, but zero maintenance.

Of course there are exceptions to every rule, but if any dog owner is cat curious, an orange tabby is a great choice.

Yes! We've had two and dog-like describes them perfectly. So easy going and right up there in your lap wanting cuddles.

Our neighborhood was hopping…the most people I’ve seen out in a while.

Same here, first Halloween in a subdivision for my wife and I and we had probably 7-8 groups of kids come to our door. And that's with us living in a cul-de-sac where only us and 1 other house participated. I see kids out roaming our neighborhood and riding their bikes and it's pretty great. Rarely see that stuff anymore. I lived outside as a kid and hope my kids are able to do the same.

My firstborn was a turrible sleeper and didn't start sleeping through the night consisntely until around 14 months and even now at 2 he occasionally wakes up in the middle of the night.

My wife is due with our second in a matter of weeks and I'm hoping he's the complete opposite. It seems rare that people have kids who are similar sleepers so here's to hoping.

Ametuers. Our first did not sleep through the night until he was about 7 years old. He is nearly 30 now and his first is on pace to be like his dad. His brother is 6 years younger and slept through the night after about 4 months. If we had him first, their ages would be a lot closer! 🤣

Clemson didn't have to. They won their first title in 2016. In 2013, they were ranked 15th and got guys like Shaq Lawson, Mike Williams, Wayne Gallman, Jayron Kearse, and Makensie Alexander. In 2014, thy were ranked 16th with Deshaun Watson. In 2015, they were ranked 9th with Deon Cain, Mith Hyatt, Christian Wilkins, and Clelin Ferrell. In 2016, they were ranked 11th with Dexter Lawrence, Tavien Feaster, and Isaiah Simmons. One class barely inside the top 10 before winning their title.

Then, they won the title again in 2018. They were ranked 16th in 2017 and finally 7th in 2018.

Recruiting is certainly important, and it has to be top 15ish. But coaching can take top 15 talent and turn it into a top 5 team. You also need an elite QB- that is the position where talent can get you to elite status.

Once you start winning, recruiting sites will also rank players higher based on your offer. Recruiting sites follow successful coaching evaluations.

We had groups all over the place. Have multiple houses out with a fire pit and even a truck with a trailer and another with a parade-sized float of a pirate ship. Maybe it was all of the smoke machines, but it even looked foggy like Halloween.

We are #14 in On3 and #12 on 247.

Yeah we are NOT doing to hot in the overall rankings and probably need to pick it up on recruiting trail.

I think some of the issues is that a class like this would have been great 10-15 years ago but now we have to go against Saban so you need 3-4 5 stars, about 12 4 stars, and some very good 3 stars.

Is it possible the NCAA investigation is still a bit of an anchor?

That's awesome. I grew up on a busy road as a kid and envied the hell out of my friends who lived in subdivisions. Glad my kids will be able to roam around safely with their buddies.

No doubt! I so need this W saturday. I work with a bunch of doggies that in the last 3 weeks have gone from arrogant and stupid to scared in stupid. I will say it is very difficult to talk football with these people because I've seen them go from bammer fans to georgia fans over the last few years. most fairweather people I have ever seen.
