Players at every level have nerves at the beginning of games. That is why a lot of the better offensive coordinators in both college and the NFL like to have their QB's throw a couple of easy, short passes in their opening possession to help them settle their nerves. That's also why scoring in the first quarter of Super Bowls is usually low. It's a matter of being able to play through and control the adrenaline rush. To-date, Milton has struggled with that. He appeared to make some progress last year, but he still has too many overthrows IMO. Hopefully, he'll continue to improve throughout this season as he gets more and more playing time.
I thought the coaches did a great job managing Joe in the OB.

Thank you so very much for posting this. I have purchased the shirt and checkerboard golf towel bundle for Father’s Day. I didn’t want to wait in case there was a run and they were sold out. 😎

Plus, my daughter is going to TCU and my son is transferring to Texas A&M. I have a feeling that it’s gonna be a purple and maroon gift day for me this year. 😊

I know we all buy off-brand stuff at the store to save a few dollars here and there.

Is there anything that you simply have to have brand name or you won't eat it/drink?

Is there any off-brand that you prefer over name brand?

Mine is Coca-Cola bbq sauce and Gillette Mach 3 razors, disposable or plain. . .

I like Dr Wow soda better than Dr pepper, 😆. It reminds me of cheerwine and Dr pepper.
Hot dogs...Nathan's for the win.
 
Bob Gibson is a good example…. I read where they did “scientific tests where they thought Gibson threw 95 mph at high end avg. in 2008…. There were only 11 pitcher that threw as fast or faster than 95…. By 2018…. There were over 1,300 pitchers that threw over 95 mph…. Not knowing if or how he might have improved…. Would his arm be considered as elite with how fast todays athletes throw?

Factor in the difference in nutrition and strength training. Yes.
 
Speaking of cereal. . .

Is it ok to mix 2 or more types of cereal together in a bowl at the same time or is only 1 acceptable? Like half frosted flakes & half raisin bran. . . 🤔
yes. especially when some dingus in your house leaves like a half a bowl left in one box....now, the trick is do you have compatible cereals? i mean, let's not get crazy here, let's not go mixing Raisin Bran with Frosted fla.........oh, wait. IMO Rice Krispies are the universal donor of cereal....can go with anything.;)
 
Please keep praying hard for Parker. Just woke up with fever between 104.5-105!! This is the start of Day 7. He was having a much better day yesterday overall and the fevers were generally lower. Really just want some answers for his sake and for him to be able to be himself. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Prayers. We’ve encountered this with a couple of our kids. I know it sounds strange, but if they’ve run tests for everything, they refer to it simply as a fever virus. Really no other symptoms. It has to run its course, but rotate Tylenol and Motrin. It is frustrating, and I feel for you.
 
Almost any major “grocery store” (Walmart, CostCo, Kroger, Publix, etc) and their brand (Great Value, Kirkland, etc.). The supply chain sources back to the same core manufacturers in many cases - especially for consumer goods.

I’ve watched a well known Butter brand produced (in a perfectly clean and well run way) but then packaged into its branded box, also into regional supplier brand boxes, and then also great value 🙃. All side by side by side lines from the same “batch run”.

My advice would be to see if you really can tell the difference in branded and non-branded items on the grocery shelf, if you remove the marketing from the major brands you know from the equation.

We still have brands we like as well, haha! I’m a Sweet Baby Ray’s fan for BBQ sauce for example - and nothing else 😆
There are some I prefer, some I dont.

Kroger has best off brand stuff typically.

It's my understanding that the manufacturing methods may be the same but in sone instances the types of materials used are different.

Take kayaks for instance. I believe that the plastic used in Academy and Dick's 'lesser known' brands of kayaks are same exact molds as Perception, Dagger, or, just older molds sold to company. But plastic is cheaper, and newer plastics are reserved for higher end models.

I can personally attest that Frito-Lay products are only in Frito-Lay bags. There's a reason every other brands' "doritos" suck.
