One thing I had to really make peace with as a teacher is that no two kids are the same or learn the same.

I do pre-school now so it's not as big a deal...but I really struggled teaching math when I was just started out as an elementary teacher because math just came naturally to me. I had no idea how to explain how it worked.

Phonics is definitely back in now. Hopefully to stay.

Oh I agree.

It's just insane that a team can schedule Texas and play a Big 10 schedule and somehow avoid playing an actually good offense all season.

I DO think it's the best defense in the country.

...it's also true the best offense they have played is...Ohio? Illinois?

McD has way more of an excuse than LaFleur does right now.

I mean, they'd probably actually fund them appropriately.

Oh geez, I hadn't heard about that. Glad he's okay.

They are.

But ooooooh boy are they going to have some terrible, awful, Rick Scott-approved ideas to fix it.

The term "health savings account" is going to give me hives over the next couple months.

Nah.

Daboll was good for Josh's development. But that version of the offense had topped out. It was a one-trick pony.

Frankly if this season peters out I want a total refresh of the offense. Josh needs new ideas and concepts.

"Potentially" doing a LOT of work there

Where'd he think the money for his absurd contract came from?

"Hundreds of millions of poor people enjoy life more and are happier than you ever will be" really got to him haha

"AIPAC is why these senators caved" is not a normal statement. Neither is the general obsession with AIPAC to the exclusion of tens of other lobby groups. The anti-Semitism is in that every lobby tries to portray itself as more powerful than it really is, but with AIPAC it feeds into conspiracism.

"45%? Still that high? Ugh."

[Looks at pollster name]

"Oh holy shit."

Milano's getting banished to the phantom zone as soon as Thompson gets back.
