9. Chris Weinke?
He is/was just a kid, even if he did already own a house and have a 401(k). South Carolina has a player who's 39 years old.

Holtz says 39-year-old wideout will play when eligible

SportsLine.com wire reports

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina coach Lou Holtz wants to give "Pops" a chance. He's waiting on the NCAA to agree.

Holtz said Monday 39-year-old walk-on receiver Tim Frisby, nicknamed "Pops," will get to play for South Carolina this season once his eligibility is approved by the NCAA Clearinghouse.
....

Frisby recently retired from the U.S. Army, where he was a Ranger-qualified military man with the 82nd Airborne. He served in Desert Storm and during the Kosovo conflict. He joined the Gamecocks during winter workouts and was invited back with the club after fall camp.

I'm going to take another ibuprofen.

2. That's young. Anything under 40 is a "youthful indiscretion" to the GOP

3. Yeah, I noticed that.
So did he start late or is it just taking him forever to finish school?

8. "Campus Conservative Organizations" are mostly Scaife funded
conservative stink tank front groups. Since they're heavily endowed, they depend on having older directors around to make sure the kiddies don't get too far off track from the neocon talking points.

He's 35 years old because they don't trust a real student to lead one of these things.

11. That is because any younger and they are not allowed to think for
themselves. They are told what to do and what to think. Same as some religions. Brainwashed.
