That's exactly what AK is trying to instill in his kid.

You don't fail until you quit.

Maybe that is what he is trying to instill in him. Doesn't mean that the kid is learning that. He might be learning something entirely different.

Like Fireball my mother made me sit for hours in front of a bowl of nasty vegetable soup with fat chunks until I ate it to teach me not to waste food. At the time I learned that her stew was nasty, that I had to find ways to coax the dog to eat it when she wasn't looking, and that it was unfair to expect me to choke down a meal I hated to begin with and would have never chosen.

Since then I have an aversion to vegetable soup, often overeat unnecessarily and have had to relearn the process of stopping when I am full even if there is still food on the plate, and learned to avoid my mother's cooking.

Do you think that was what she was trying to teach me??

It made you learn to problem solve creatively(feeding the dog). :D

Seriously, you do have a point with the age of the kid though p55.

You have no idea how many times that dog was a lifesaver. The really hard part was making sure the dog wouldn't still be licking his chops as he went back into the living where they were all watching TV while I sat in the kitchen by myself. It was a give away to her.:D

Yeah, better just to not feed your kids at all.

    • Corbett knows he needs to take a prove it deal and I think he will.  I watched an interview and he was convincingly adamant he wants to stay.  Two different injuries in two years was bad luck.  It's not like it was the same thing.  He knows the game and figures to end his career in a place where he is happy.  You can't really compare how Bryce did with Mays compared to AC.  AC was hurt week 5.  Bryce was on the bench after week 2 and didn't return until week 8. Mays is basically under team control next year as a RFA.  We could offer the right of first refusal for 3m.  I'd offer a 2 year deal which averages a little higher so you can manipulate the cap on his deal.  Additionally, I'd resign Corbett to a team friendly deal.  Many forget he has positional versatility like BC.  Corbett is only one year older, is two inches shorter, about 10 pounds heavier, and has arms that are one inch longer.  Corbett has played LT in college and guard/center in the NFL.  Ideally, bring back all three, but if BC gets big time $$$ AC and CM can battle for center and the other becomes a swing lineman. If we cut bait on Yosh Nijman we may be able to keep all three.  I'd sign up for that in a heartbeat.  
    • As fans, we often exaggerate how bad our team owner is because we are so invested and focused on our team. We don't really see how bad other team owners, like Woody Johnson or Robert Kraft, because we are focused on the Panthers.
