Miami fan here. The problem is that most of Miami’s alumni move to other states. It’s a private school with a small current-student population. The stadium is 30 minutes away from campus. And there’s just too much other stuff to do. I hate it though. We don’t need a 50,000+ seat pro stadium. Give us a small stadium near campus, and it’d be a lot better.

I had the pleasure of being at the game. Miami’s run game and defense were mostly there. But the passing game, which is usually our bread and butter, was a bit lacking. Hopefully it can all start the mesh as we get toward the end of the season.

Either way, 8-0 feels good!

Time for my biased Miami review. Their offense is top notch, and can keep them in any game. Their defense and special teams are absolute garbage.

Without Cam Ward, this team would probably be 3-4, unfortunately.

Cardiac Canes, indeed. The defense needs a lot of work if they’re going to compete though. But I’ll take the win any day of the week.

My wife and I have been trying to watch Rings of Power after the kids go to sleep. But we haven’t gotten too far yet.

I have a Miami bias, obviously. But I’ve now watched the play about 100 times. The ball was bobbling all over the place, touching players out of bounds, and is never controlled by a VT player. I have no clue how some ref called that a TD to begin with from wherever they were standing. But reversing it was the right call.

Sloppy win. But a win is a win I guess. I was confident the call at the end would go against Miami, as it usually does. I’ll take it I suppose.

Hah, yeah that one is pretty fun!

The game has been in weather delay for awhile. Just give me my football game!

My 14 month old had a short wake up at 2:40am. For whatever reason (work stress, mostly) I couldn’t get back to sleep. I’ll be running on about 4 hours of sleep and caffeine today.

 

A 3 year old and 1 year old. Today, for the first time, my 3 year old daughter put some nail polish on my toes. Feeling beautiful over here.

 
 

Hi Dads,

I made a post over in [email protected] about possibly consolidating the many dad groups down to just one (at least for now) to encourage activity.

The general consensus was that we focus discussion over at [email protected] because, among some other reasons, it’s the only community that seems to have an active mod.

I hope you’ll join me in posting over there!
