This is how I look at it...

1.  The people that they are pretending to be worried about getting hammered (students) are not the ones that are going to buy beers at the game...not at 5-7 dollars a beer and not when they would rather just sneak in some shooters.  So that argument is super mute and moot.  No college kid, that is 21, is going to be excited to spend 14 dollars (plus a tip) for two beers when 20 dollars get you a case of Natty...or about 5 drinks on O street.

2.  People that are going to drink at the game (older people) are running out at halftime and slamming down two beers and a shot...then heading back in.  That is more of an "issue" than a dude grabbing another beer at halftime and polishing it off during the 3rd quarter.

I went to a game in Minny, they served beer...me and buddy stood near the end zone...where the beers were and probably went through 4-5 beers each until the sales were done.  Cans of Grain Belt.  Didn't seem like that big of a deal.

I also think the idea of stopping sales at the end of the 3rd makes no sense.  Shouldn't they just not start sales until the end of the 1st?  It isn't like you are going to sober up during the 4th, that makes no sense, if anything the booze in your system has more time to f#&% with you.

Wait a minute....They still sell Grain Belt beer somewhere?

They do!  That beer had a bite!

We wanted a house way out of our price range, way too big for 2 people, on way too much land to maintain.

I built our first house after hours and on weekends in 1978 for $30,000. It was about 1450 sq ft. 

I sucked it up and lived with my parents for about 2.5 years. I paid them some rent money while I paid off my students loans and then saved up for a down payment. Darn glad I bought my house when I did because prices started jumping these past 3.5 years. Only thing that stung was the slow negations because my interest rate spiked .25% in the extra days they tried dragging it out. The sellers were already in their new home and paying two mortgages for 2-3 months already, but they finally agreed mid-month to avoid shelling out for another month’s payment. One of the happiest purchases in my life, even through some stressful surprise replacements. 

Pearl can coach, but I have my doubts about how clean his program is. While I believe every program contains a degree of “dirty,” I also subscribe to the theory that there are worse than others, and didn’t Auburn just have an assistant get busted from a prior gig?

He's had a history of not great looks. 

Hoiburg by choice tends to recruit juco kids and avoids much of the drama of high school kids, summer league coaches who want to be paid and dads who think their son is the next Michael Jordan.  I agree it is hard to not get dirty when you have tp play in the mud to attract players to a program.
