Time to check out for awhile

Thanks to everyone here for all the fun times.

One of the Ph. D's in my program has become gravely ill and I have been asked to take over his class for the remainder of the year. Just talked to the dean and then my wife about it and we concurred I should finish the class so the undergraduates do not have to wait an extra semester to graduate. This is a class I have never taught before and it is going to require a lot of preparation on my part above my already difficult course work. Therefore, what little free time I have to devote to this site will be lost until after Christmas.

Fortunately, I have been extended a place in a Childcare Co-op and my children will still get to be with me most of the time.

Thanks,

Take care Med. Your insightful posts will be missed.

Go Broncos!

[Billy Clyde Puckett]

Good luck and thanks Med. Crack the whip on those students. We are looking forward to your return.

[SoCalBronco]

Good luck, Med.

Can't wait to have you back, bro.

Teaching a class should be exciting!

[Alkazar]

Look forward to when you can get back to the Mane, Med! Keep those wild college kids in line!

[Sassy]

Good luck Mediator!
(Will we still see you in Cleveland?)

[Hotrod]

That sucks :nono:

[Rock Chalk]

Why Hotrod? He is doing something new, doesnt get to be away from his kids, and leaves us to bash the defense all we want.

What sucks about this? ;D

[GonzoLays]

Take care of business, Med! You've been schooled so much by me that I am going to give you an honorary football PHD from the GonzoLays Institute of Football Brilliance.

Make sure to check into the Mane every once in while and read my posts to keep your football knowledge sharp. :)

[smalltowngrll]

Good Luck, Med!! You're insightful posts will definitely be missed!!

But, sounds like you'll be back in time for the playoffs!! ;D

[Taco John]

Later Med. Going to miss your weekly previews, to be sure!

Hurry back!

[Mile High Shack]

well that is disappointing

come back soon

[Falconer]

Hey Med,
I will miss your insightful posts here on the Mane. Are you working on your Ph.D. now? I hope everything will work out for the best for you. See you in January! Just in time for playoff breakdowns.

[Mediator12]

Good luck Mediator!
(Will we still see you in Cleveland?)

Yeah, the whole Clan is going. About 15 or so at last count. We have immediate family just north and south of CLE. Plus, that is during fall break too.

BTW, what a great time for a bye week :strong: After this becomes official, I will probably be sleeping even less than I am Now. Hopefully, I can Turn off the Ticket this weekend and just prepare for class next Tuesday.

[PLOWHORSE]

See ya Med. Teach the children well.:strong:

[Rohirrim]

I'll miss your takes. Best wishes, Med. :thumbs:

[ScottXray]

Good Luck Med...we WILL miss your posts and analysis....

Crack the whip on the students..
:strong:

[Taco John]

I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way. Most of all, Med, show them all the beauty that they possess insiiiiiiide!

[Traveler]

Handle your business Med! Look forward to hearing how things went when you return.

[Blueflame]

Good luck, Med... we'll definitely miss you. Stop by to say "hey" whenever you get the chance. :)

[BMF Bronco]

Good luck bro!

[Rascal]

Good luck.

The wife is starting school, again, this time focusing on psychology. It shouldn't be too hard to figure out what's wrong with me. She currently is debating whether to just get the master's or get the doctorate. I think she should get the doctorate.

[BlaK-Argentina]

Best of luck, Med!

All depends on what you want to do and how much you want to pay. A MHC (Mental health counselor) can practice just the same as a Ph.D with less time and money invested.

Only problem there is that you can NOT be a Sports Psychologist without a Ph.D or PsyD. APA finally shutdown all the quackologists who ruined the Sports Psychology field for a lot of Professional teams. The Only good news is that the average age of coaches is trending down and a lot of the burned bridges have been jettisoned.

Oh well, She can come work for me in a few years and I will set her straight for you ^5

[heydensmom]

:( :( :( We're going to miss you Med!

[jonny1]

Teach them alot, but be sure they come out Broncos fans . . .

[ozomulsion]

See ya Med, you will be missed for sure. BTW, Darrent is not in a sophmore slump. :)

[Merlin]

Good luck with your dissertation as well. One small suggestion, don't worry so much about doing something grandiose, and worry more about getting something out quickly (some people make it so complicated they never finish it). You can always have the rest of your career to deal with the grander things. Also, be careful if your focus is in an area you love, because far too often candidates end up hating the subject after investigating and writing it to death.

Later med, be sure to keep the school work non-football related

[brncs_fan]

See you in class Dr. Med!
