Sure, they gave up their own 3rd but they still have the Jets' 3rd and a 3rd-round compensatory pick.

For better or worse, mine will always be either No! or Here Come the ABCs given how much I sang along to them with my kid (and wife).

I think it works pretty well. I do present it to them with the idea that some folks are just going to be unwilling to discuss, or even acknowledge, those sort of family problems, but that since this is a history class, we're going to be open about this stuff. They (mostly) get it.

For a while now I've been using a similar example during the first few days of my 11th grade US History class.

Great, thanks!

Went right to your website from your email. (It served as a good thing to peruse while drinking coffee and starting a smoked pork shoulder.) Thanks for all of the links, as always, but I completely missed that Wyoming story. I'll be sharing that with my 11th-grade US History colleagues, for sure.

I'm still stinging from when I was 8 (in '79) and an Eagles team I was really excited about (how young and dumb was I?) lost to the Buccaneers in the divisional round.

Yeah, we canceled after the whole endorsement debacle. It's such a bummer because the news arm still seemed to be doing good work (and I want to support good news work) but this latest move only confirms my feelings about the Post.

I appreciated your thoughts on that article, particularly the bit about Embiid's physical therapist. I've been a huge Embiid fan, and while he has frustrated the heck out of me at times, I've never found myself feeling any antipathy towards him until I read that Kimberly Caspare section.
