    Succession on HBO

    Looking at the kids only and considering actual experience, Kendall is the only one that had the experience needed to take over....but obviously the car accident and drugs are his two bugaboo's. Roman is just a joke and Shiv is smart enough but lacks the overall experience. Tom makes sense...

    New Cyclone Gymnastics Coach Hired - Ashley Miles Greig

    I feel like Pollard has changed philosophies during his time here and more recently has gone after coaches that had previous head coaching experience. I suppose if you have to take a chance at a risk/reward situation it's better to do so on gymnastics than football/basketball.

    Retirement Targets

    I have heard in the past you should have 25x your spending level but I have not heard it suggested you should have 25x your income. That seems extremely challenging to achieve.

    Hy-Vee's weirdest business decision yet?

    From a shopping experience I would say Aldi is more similar to Costo/Sams Club except it's not bulk items.

    Retirement Targets

    Who knows how raises/increase will turn out, but if two people had a combined income of 140K right now with a 2.5% increase each year, they would be making about 260K in 25 years. 260,000 x 11 is 2,860,000.

    I could be wrong but I thought David explained in an interview after the match that he couldn't hear the referee.

    If he earns it he should 100% wrestle, I just worry about the "rust" factor in general.

    ***NCAA Allocations (Thursday, 2/23)***

    I feel like we are in a real tough spot no matter what. I would feel bad throwing Cabanban back out there with no matches for quite some time going into it.

    His opponent this evening is the son of one of my good friends from high school. He was also their backup running back for football.

    ***#3 Iowa State at #10 Missouri (Wed., 6:30)***

    I think you are correct and Bastida is the same with with top tier guys. If either of them are not getting the first takedown then it's much harder for them.

    Definitely an uphill battle tonight.

    ***#3 Iowa State vs. #20 Illinois (Sunday, noon)/B&B***

    I don't think anyone wants to keep it a niche sport. It's the changes for a single event that ruffle feathers because people that paid for reserved seats want reserved seats, and you also change the time people need to arrive so they can now try and find seats. Sounds minor, and in the grand...
