You're the one who doesn't want to go, it's up to you to get creative. If there's something you've been wanting to do or buy that she doesn't care for, you have your leverage.

She's aggravated because you flatly said 'I'm not doing this' instead of having a rational adult discussion and trying to find a compromise.
Adults don't like to be dictated to. ...

If he's talking about the 280 pound DT from ULM or the kid from Texas who has 1 tackle (in 2022) in his career, we're not in a good spot.
Hopefully there's someone hiding in the weeds we don't know about....

High and mighty and principles are great until you're getting manhandled at the line of scrimmage by Kentucky in October.
Adapt or die. If Kelly doesn't want to play ball he won't last with the current system.
9-3 regular seasons don't cut the mustard around here. ...
re: Would you prefer an Elite offense or an Elite defense
Posted by The Pirate King on 5/7/24 at 11:26 am
Depends on the other side of the ball.
You can win a championship being elite and mediocre on offense or defense.
You cannot win being elite and terrible on offense or defense. ...
