Two of the best to ever coach their respective sports. Hard to imagine anyone else topping it.

I've visited Scotland three times. It's lovely during good weather, but can be miserable at times during the summer when a front blows through. I scuba dived Scapa Flow in 1984. My goal is hit up the Orkney's again and the Shetland's after this COVID crap subsides.Inveraray Castle would be one of the places I would have to see if I went to Scotland:
No we did not. Thankfully, we have stayed true to our beginnings. I know churches that have done as you said.
In my opinion, if you have to "change" to attract members, what are you actually attracting? If you have to "entertain" them to get them in, when they get bored of that, they will leave. Salvation starts from within, Comes from the heart.
We have been watching the Shetland TV series and the scenery is spectacular. No trees . They say the ancients cut them down for firewood and sheep will not let them grow in modern times.
The English also considerably deforested Scotland and Ireland for shipbuilding timber.
Evening
Tonight we will see if our boys learned anything

Hopefully, but doubt it. Just don’t have any confidence in the freshmen anymore. Maybe they prove me wrong. That would be ok with me.
Ok. Thanks. My television guide was still showing Indianapolis.
Two days is probably not enough to learn as much as they are needing. I give them till mid January. At least Duke is going down.
Duke goes down. At home
Quick whistle tonight
That does not bode well
Keep Mintz and Sarr in the game. Period.
Impressed so far. Keep it up Cats!!
Wooo hooo! Picked that pocket again.
Kansas will pick it up. They'll have to fight to win.
Cats are falling apart.
I agree, but Mintz is not a pg. He is a shooting guard. We have no pg. Askew should have stayed in HS another year.
Agree. Tough loss. Ugh.
What's sad is that as bad as everyone wanted Hagans gone, he is just what this team needs. Someone who can run the offense, get into the middle of the defense and dish to big guys for dunks. Neither of our pg's can get into the middle of the defense, if they were invited. Mintz is better than Askew, but he turned it over several times on just stupid passes. I'm not going to get emotionally invested in this team, because they are not going anywhere without a decent pg. What's bad is that last year's team was on a roll and we have no tournament. This year the tournament will be held, and we will suck.
We're going to take some lumps early this year and a 10 loss season is very possible. I see 2 more for this month. This team is still playing a lot of one on one ball but, even when they do work an offensive set, we still can't hit the open shots.
Good morning D, very cold 16 here!!!
I have already had several inquiries about me making some more TBL and TRL badges, but it is the same thing each time, that cost to much, I'm not paying that much for one! I found out early that people don't respect the time and material that you put into this line of work! That's ok, I will just keep on making them and giving them to the ones I respect for doing the job they do!!!!! Rant over,
I hope the D has a great day and I will keep on praying for the D!!!

I'm sure Cal talked about how young they are after the loss.....
Moving day for me and Mrs today. Would appreciate any and all prayers that everything goes well. We ain't spring chickens anymore.
Good morning D League
And now for the daily weather report. Woke up to a chilly 34° with a strong cup of coffee. Still no heat in the house so I might break down and call the man. The house is so well insulated and will warm up as the sun comes out. But THIRTY FOUR IS COLD DOWN HERE. Winds are NNW at 9 mph. The humidity is 63% with no chance of rain. I'll head outside and see how the plants did last night. We didn't cover anything up, I think they will be OK. Our high will be 58°.
Trust all are doing well and COVID free.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 47°F and clear. Expect 63°F today's high. Nice.
Hope these Cats put last night's loss behind them soon. Must play Yellow Jackets in ATL come Sunday. Football Cats play the Gamecocks this coming Saturday.
I'm off today. Back to work tomorrow. Plan on grocery shopping later this morning.
Wishing happiness and health to all our fellow D-League members.

We got you Cawood, prayers that all goes well. Moving a household is never easy no matter what your age. Downsizing is even worse. I have been doing it for the past 5 years and still have a ways to go.
Prayers sent. Seriously.
Moving is a major life hassle. I moved at least 25 times over a 37-year period, counting my time in the service.
Where are y'all moving?
since you mentioned plants, I thought I'd mention my citrus plant that I'm attempting to nurture along during this colder weather. I have a "Meyer" hybrid tree that's supposed to produce small lemons and limes. I planted it last spring in a large pot and have seen some small bulbs developing, but am afraid that the fading sunlight and colder weather will end up killing the plant or stunting the growth. Do you know how I might be able to keep this thing alive through the winter?
Citrus needs plenty of sunshine in addition to warmth. It also thrives in sandy soil. You might consider some type of artificial sunlight lamp. I never had any luck growing citrus or an avocado long term without Florida sunshine.
But you can give it a try. If anyone can do it you can Kai.
Good morning D-League.
Tough night for the Cats. Didn't get to watch as I had to get up at 4am to see my son off to Lexington and my wife to an early hospital shift.
Can't say I'm not a bit concerned. But I'm taking the opportunity to do some reverse-trolling on Rafters. That's when you post something positive in the face of the howling tempest of negativity and hysteria. I'm getting predictably verbally assaulted, which is fine. As I say, I'm far from sold on this team yet, but I remember people bailing on the 2011 team and the 2014 team and even last year after Evansville. So many factors have worked against this bunch, from their only experienced player Keion Brooks getting hurt and not being there as a pre-season stabilizer, to the Covid cancellations that didn't give them the 4-5 cupcake games to mature.
The Point Guard deficiency may prove fatal, but otherwise there is still room for a solid team.

Well, that doesn't sound good for my plant. I'll give it a try and see what happens.
How I imagine Rafters this morning:

Good luck. Growing citrus is hard even in Florida. There are diseases that attack, insects that destroy and of course freezes that kill. It is a full time job.
Since I got myself in this medical mess I have lost most of my citrus trees. I lost two lemons, a Key lime, one of my avocados, 3 grapefruit, a blood orange and 3 kumquat trees. And only a few were due to the weather. Freeze. Most were inability to spray them, trim them and cultivate the roots and fertilize. If you let citrus go it is over.
I only have three citrus trees now. A kumquat, tangerine and Valencia orange. I also have an avocado but it did not bear fruit this year because the other avocado tree died and they cross pollinate. The guava tree is loaded and tough. A year ago this tree froze and all of the fruit turned black. I cut it back to the roots and it is back now better than ever.
