re: Does ANYONE want to coach basketball at Ark?
Posted by Fletch1985 on 4/7/24 at 9:20 am
He obviously has a bad read on the coaching market. But do you think he’s being boycotted by the coach/agent community? He made a big deal about “changing the nature of contracts to favor schools” a few years ago. Seems like a real dumb thing for an AD to say out loud. Since then Arkansas only gets...

re: Question for OM fans

No bueno. Beard is a hot head and the Tech fans say those two were gasoline and matches in Lubbock. Blew up in Austin. You would think he has the sense to can her arse. ...

OM fans, did Beard ditch the crazy chick that got him fired at Texas? Or was she lurking around Oxford?...
re: Diverticulitis surgery
Posted by Fletch1985 on 4/4/24 at 9:11 pm
Hey man, have the docs talked to you at all about diet? I was told I had diverticulitis, put on antibiotics, CTs, hospital stays, all of it. Turns out I had become lactose intolerant later in life and had a few other food sensitivities. My gut was so inflamed because of it all they just called it d...
re: Men, what gifts are you getting this year?

Ask for a cashmere v-neck sweater. Super comfortable and she will want to take it off of you after you get home from dinner. ...
re: Anybody seen a Cybertruck in the wild yet?
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/24/24 at 1:15 pm
Several. Unlike their cars that appeal to a pretty broad set of luxury sedan buyers, the truck is going to have a very niche audience. It isn’t anything like a traditional pickup so those buyers probably stay away. Low to the ground like a car and robocop feel. ...
re: Who would take the NCAA basketball championship but you know you aren’t gonna win football

Arkansas fans took that deal 30 years ago. Ask them how it feels now. ...

re: If you were given 5 million dollars tax free today, would you keep working?

In that situation you work only because you want to not because you have to. ...
re: If you didn't have your wife (or don't have one) would you be happy being a loner?
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/19/24 at 3:57 pm
My condolences. It’s a tough place to be. My wife died from a difficult terminal disease a couple of years ago when I was 51. Take care of her, your family and yourself. It will be bad, but you can get to the other side and rebuild. Whatever that looks like for you.
I’ve intentionally stayed a...
re: Friends son just passed away in a car accident
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/19/24 at 7:03 am
Remembering him because of his life is better than ignoring him because of his death
—————-
This is so well said. We do okay as a society talking about those who’ve passed after a long life, but are not good about talking about those who pass too soon. It’s hard and sometimes awkward but talking...
re: Friends son just passed away in a car accident
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/18/24 at 5:41 pm
Much good advice already. I’ll add a few things I came to understand after my wife died.
Don’t ask, just do. I was overwhelmed with people asking what they can do. It becomes another problem to deal with. Go ahead and send the food, mow the yard, buy the gift certificate for a dinner out for him...
re: How are you feeling about the inevitable Trump v Biden rematch?
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/9/24 at 9:03 pm
This is 100% accurate. And why I’m so sick of the loser republicans we have now. Play the game. Organize and make sure there’s just as many republican mail in ballots. The numbers are out there. Trump goes so far as to discourage mail in. They are losers who don’t know how to win. ...
re: How are you feeling about the inevitable Trump v Biden rematch?
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/9/24 at 8:57 pm
Yes, but I’ll say most of the blame is on this current set of dipshit republicans. They don’t have a clue how to win.
Since women value safety, you use these messages:
Illegal immigrants assault you and your children
Renewable power is dangerous because you may lose power when you are hom...
re: How are you feeling about the inevitable Trump v Biden rematch?
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/9/24 at 8:24 pm
As a conservative, I hate to say that Biden will win. Republicans nor Trump understand women voters, who are the swing voters in the important states.
Women value safety and kindness. Trump will get baited into being mean and “dangerous”. Biden is just a harmless grandpa to these women voters, s...
re: Is it okay to not care if you have a sibling you never knew about?
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/9/24 at 11:43 am
Think about it as an opportunity not an obligation. There may be a time you want to engage with the sibling, if not no sweat. ...
re: Solo travel advice for widower
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/4/24 at 6:03 pm
Glad to hear you are doing okay. Family and friends are such a huge blessing. I will caution you that the world tends to move on after 3-6 months, even if we widows and widowers aren’t ready for that. If that time period gets a little rough just remember all the good resources like grief share. Best...
re: Solo travel advice for widower
Posted by Fletch1985 on 3/3/24 at 10:16 pm
Exact same. Had a beautiful life. It’s been hard to let go of it, but it’s gone and time to start the rebuild. My kids are grown but still need me, so I can’t do anything too crazy. Get some help with the kids if you need it, us dudes are too proud sometimes to admit the struggle.
Agree with you ...

It’s a shitty boat northend, but it’s getting better. Hope the same for you.
Appreciate all the good ideas in this thread. Have a lot to research now and then go do it. It is indeed a big world with a lot to see and do. ...
re: Solo travel advice for widower

Thank you. Take care of yourself. Grief counseling has been a huge help to me. I avoided so many mistakes thanks to it. Give it a try if you haven’t already. ...
