Re: Home Repairs
So, we just replaced our old gas water heater with an electric heat pump. We have solar on our roof, so our electric bill is next to zero (only the flat admin fees), and now, the only things we use gas for is our stove and heating, which aren't much. The heat pump puts out cold air, so on the rare r...

Re: NCAA FB 2023
So, in effect, college athletes are on one-year contracts. I wonder if the next logical step is multi-year NIL contracts that tie the kids to one school for the period of the contract? I don't think there's any question that that is coming. And back-loaded NIL contract as well. The schools need to ...

I just read an article about Bronny James. His agent, Rich Paul, says he will not allow young James to sign a two-way contract after he is drafted. Seems a bit arrogant for a very iffy player. Is there any reason, other than his bloodline, why a team would even draft him? He is a medical risk, only ...
