Scientists in the 1960s: "If we create a global network of instantaneous computerized communication, human knowledge shall leap to limitless heights!" 

Humans in 2024: "Let's go on the Internet and spread lies about anything and everything. Oh, and porn. Lots and lots of porn." 

I am not a nurse, so I can't…

I am not a nurse, so I can't really help there. But I did spend almost 20 years of my career traveling extensively. This was mostly 7-10 day type trips out of the country once a month or so. I'd spend 4-5 days before the trip prepping and packing and such, and then another 3-7 days getting over jet lag once home (East Asia trips were a nightmare. Singapore or South Korea could take up to two weeks to get back to normal sometimes). Add it all up, and I was spending anywhere from a half to 3/4 of each month somewhere in the "trip process." 

Here's the moral to my story that may apply to your daughter: The above lifestyle was "fun and exciting" from my late 20s into my mid 30s. From mid 30s to mid 40s, it became a drag. Now that it is over (and I'm in my early 50s), I honestly don't think I could do it. It would kill me...

The 1972 plane crash of the Uruguayan Rugby team was pretty sad. The 1970 Marshall football team plane crash was pretty sad as well. 

In fiction, from the movie "The Sum of All Fears," the NFL game that was nuked by Russian separatists killing all 80,000 fans and both teams was tragic. Very sad.

I very much agree with this. Between "I didn't make it to the pros and now I am poor" vs. "my fandom is less intense because these players feel like hired guns," I would take the latter as the lesser harm any day. But, I guarantee that there are others who think the declining intensity of their fandom is the greater harm. Guarantee it... ;-) 

If several thousand years of…

If several thousand years of recorded history has taught us anything, it's that ANY system of government (or regulatory regime, or system of justice, etc.) will create real or perceived harm to some group. From a utilitarian perspective, the goal is to limit the total harm caused by said system. Does NIL do that? We have no idea, yet. Ask again in 10 years...

Too young to get married, JJ is. Change greatly over the next 7 years, he will. If things go poorly, attraction's silhouette may remain, but the love and all its planets may have disappeared... 

As a 50+ year old man, I…

As a 50+ year old man, I would strongly advise JJ to wait another few years to marry. Or, let the engagement play out over 4-5 years and see how things go. 

But hey, who am I to stand in the way of young love...

I honestly have no idea if it is customary for the conference to send a "formal congratulations," but the B1G Network has been about basically nothing but our game since Monday. It's hardly like the conference is pretending the win didn't happen. As for Petite Tony? He can shove his congratulations in a sack, as far as I am concerned.

For your sake, I really hope Michigan Football doesn't file for a PPO against you after reading this, forcing you to stay 500 yards away from it at all times...

Regardless of outcome, that post-game handshake could tear the fabric of the universe. I could actually see the two coaches get into some sort of "shirtless flex-off" mid-field.

I am sure someone will throw money at him. But with Washington moving to the B18, and some deep pockets around Seattle apparently willing to shell out cash for players like Penix, he has a pretty good job. They might need to pay him more than his current tiny salary of only $4 million...
