# | Wherever dcwilson is today, I know he can rest happy. It's finally happening! Must have been big and important enough to get a his own thread. lol...
Not to sidetrack this thread, but based on your comment:
some teams play 9, some teams play 8
It seemed like a good place to put this.
What's supposed to be a rolling 8-game schedule for each ACC team, doesn't seem to be applied equally. Clemson has 8 games for the next three seasons, not playing 9 games until 2029.
Coached at Duke with Knowles
Thanks! It's confusing because I wouldn't really consider that a "bye" in any normal sense as it's only 4 of 64 teams.
I'll sing the same refrain I did when Jalen Stroman transferred to Notre Dame: Good for Coach Cheetah. No idea how they pulled it off but hats off on the salesmanship.
Truth!
Mine is being back on the line as a KM at Red Robin and I can't remember the recipes. Or waking up in cold sweats to the sound of the tickets printer going off. Followed up by serving in a 6 table section and I can hit my greets in 30 seconds. It's been 10 years or more since I managed a sit down restaurant.
Can't afford therapy? TKP has you covered.
Best community on the internet.
"23 new comments. Hmmm, wonder where Morgan landed?" I think to myself, only to open the thread and see.....23 new comments about nightmares.
Peak offseason TKP.
Key word - almost.
Them playing Rocky Top every time play stops is almost as bad as the Florida State Semenholes' Tomahawk Chop.
aka Florida State Seminal Vesicles.
I've had that dream as well. The panic settling in when you are trying to remember where the class is.....man that was brutal.
So frustrating that we haven't been regularly playing Tennessee and South Carolina home and homes.
Even less chances of it happening with every conference going to 9 games (except our very GoACC some teams play 9, some teams play 8).
If we had any real, centralized leadership in this sport, we would have 8+2 uniform scheduling across the board for the power conferences. 8 conference games + 2 required OOC games against P4 teams, and 2 to do whatever you like with.
I'll repeat my call for us to schedule Tennessee
I was the most hated student in one environmental engineering class. The professor explained carefully that he gave a bonus question worth up to five points on every test. He then adjusted the highest scoring exam to 100 and then used that to establish his curve. So if the highest score was an 85, it became a 100 and everybody else got a fifteen point curve. Everybody was really happy with this methodology.
And then he has the first test. He announced that the average score was a 65 for the class. Then said he decided not to do his normal curve. Then turns to me and says "Congrats Matt, you got every question right including the bonus so I decided not to give a minus five point curve to the class." Apparently the next highest score was in the low 80's as he gave the tests out in descending order. I could feel the death glares.

"What is the sound of one hand clapping?"
The same amount of applause as the UVA spring game
I had those dreams for decades after I graduated. Usually I'd skipped the class all quarter, had absolutely no idea where it was located, and it was final exam day. That dream was repeated maybe 12-15 times, at least. Finally stopped having them maybe 15 years ago. At 75, I'm glad I don't still have them.
Woah woah woah, it's too early to be getting so philosophical. How many roads must a man walk down, indeed.
Or helping people setup for their gathering because you arrived at the time the party was supposed to start but no one else shows up for at least 30 minutes.
Apparently being late was worse than not knowing your stuff
"Don't worry, you'll know Rocky Top by the second quarter"
I did not have the best study habits as a young naive freshman and made a much less than desirable grade on my first vector geometry exam. Luckily, I realized I needed to buckle down and my professor also dropped the lowest of our three exam scores. Thought I had a plan and then my grandfather passed away and with everything going on I failed to realize I needed to be with my family when my second exam was scheduled. I pleaded with the professor to let me take it late and he wouldn't budge, simply reiterating his policy. I missed the exam and was bitter with the professor for a good while, but over time I realized I controlled more than I thought and my failures were my own. It was a good life lesson for me and everything worked out in the end. So far.
HOKIES!
