    Only made it to London, OH last night since I was on recaps. Got to Midwest around 10:30 and picked up a load going to Indianapolis Target for tomorrow morning at 06:00. Finishing up at Speedco now -- had a trailer tire debeaded at pickup. Turned out to be a leaky valve stem. Can't really be upset over that one; It probably started recently, went low at Midwest, and then debeaded from yard dog backing it around. Easy run though and this load with the backhaul will be a nice 450 miles or so added to this check and back in time to snag a weekend load :)

    Ahhh ok, I just left midwest not too long ago. I gotta go to Indianapolis myself. I'm delivering to Hackney there. I've got a slightly leaky air bag but I'll get it fixed when I get back, just in case I get a load that runs me by the yard. If not, I'll run to East STL or somewhere. I know one thing, I'm glad you've got Target instead of me lmao!!!

    What do you boys think of the news out of Alabama with Nick Saban announcing his retirement?

    I'm actually not even sad to see him go. I'm happy for him. Saban is the greatest college football coach ever. 7 national championships, 6 of them with Alabama, countless players to the pros. That man had one hell of a career, and I'm happy for him. I'm definitely celebrating his greatness!

    One thing is for certain; whoever lands that job next is going to have some big shoes to fill.

    I do too...i also hope the fans are gracious for what they've experienced for so long. I hope also that they keep their loyalty to the program because there have been instances where the Alabama faithful have been a little obnoxious in recent years.

    BIG SHOES!!!!!! The thought of coaching Alabama would make me think twice if I were in their list. In this day and age, coaches don't have longevity like they used to. If they don't at the very least get in New Year's Six bowl, they're out of there in 3 to 5 years....maybe less! The NIL and transfer portal has dimmed the patience of boosters.

    So they want us to idle in single digit Temps, but don't want us to set trailer brakes cuz they might get frozen/stuck. How the hell do we idle our trucks then?
