I think it comes down to personal preferences and wants. I have 5 kids ranging in age from 2 to 14 and they are very active and love to be outside and love to go to the pool. I understand there will be costs to maintain, and that's something I'm totally fine with. It's not for everybody, but we will definitely be getting a pool soon. I'm not sure why people feel the need to bash those that want a pool.

+1 I built a pool last year and couldn't be happier. It turned out bigger than I anticipated (18,500 gallons) but im glad it did. My boys love it and have been swimming since February. Like said above, don't go through a pool builder....everything has a huge mark up. I did mine myself and came in just under $27,000. Give me a shout if you have any questions or need references. How is the financing done if you sub out all the work yourself instead of using a pool builder or general contractor? Or do you just have to have the cash? I'm a few weeks away from buying a home and a pool is high on our want list, but none of the homes we are looking at have a pool.

I'm loving the Christan Kirk pick!!!

I like the slight tag increase in some of the southern unit late December hunts.

My thoughts exactly!!! The Pac-12 commissioner needs to look at why his teams always lose in tournament. Referees? Olsen and now Miller. + Ncaa favors eastern teams. Lol, this is the most ridiculous post in this whole thread, being a close second to your 13 posts talking about Hurley hurling. Did you watch the game?!?! It's obvious why they lost, nobody on UofA's team showed up to play. You take a group of pretty good basketball players and develop them for four years and you can have a pretty dang good basketball team. That's what a lot of these small school no-name conference champion teams are. That's why you see these upsets every year in the tournament. Give Buffalo credit, those kids came out and played with heart. I thought UofA had the talent to go very far in this tournament. Too bad they didn't have the heart. It looked to me like Ayton checked out early and is already looking forward to the draft.

ASU sucks, UofA sucks, the whole Pac12 sucks. What an embarrassment by our two Arizona schools.

Where are you located?

I would like to see both Arizona teams do well. Keep in mind ASU beat Kansas by 10 points in Kansas, and they beat Xavier by 30 in a neutral location. Now that they are in the tournament the past doesn't really matter for any team. I just hope they can get hot and win some games. If they lay an egg it's going to look as bad or worse than not getting into the tournament after the hot start. I think UofA has the players needed to do a lot of damage and really make a run. Let's see who steps up and delivers.

I honestly didn't think ASU was going to get in with the way they played in the conference schedule. I guess beating two teams that are number 1 seeds was the narrow difference maker. Now that they're in I'm hoping they can get hot like they did early on. USC got hosed big time!!!! I wouldn't be surprised to see UofA in the final four with the way Ayton has been dominating. It would be good for our state and the whole conference if both teams can make some noise in this tourney.

Looks like you were in Sossaman Estates at Sossaman Junior High. My daughter is in 8th grade there and my sister lives right by the school. If you just keep the wheels straight you can go through the "traffic calming" sections without slowing down or turning at all. It cracks me up to see the people that haven't figured that out yet.

The Zeiss Conquest HD line is underrated in my opinion. This is a great price and whoever ends up with them will be very happy. I'm tempted myself.

Looks like ASU is doing everything they can to not make the tourney.

I've had nothing but great experiences with outdoorsmans. They have always gone above and beyond for me.

This describes my feelings about the situation here exactly. My family's AZ roots go back over 130 years and there's so much I love about this place, despite the growing pains here.

Idaho, especially Eastern ID is terrible for tradesmen. Like it or not, unions make things a lot better for everyone. ID is one of the lowest wage earning states in the union. That's basically what keeps me from going there. I have been an IBEW member since I was a 1st year apprentice in 2005. There is more work here in the valley than anyone knows what to do with.

I have had my eye on Rigby, ID for the last 2.5 years, but I have been a commercial/industrial electrician for the last 13 years and there's a ton of work here in the valley. I have not been able to work out the logistics of how I could make it happen. I would love to live somewhere more spread out, less traffic, a nice little chunk of land, and not so crowded. Also, tons of great outdoor opportunities up there.

I kind of feel the same way. There were probably some very upset residents that pushed hard to go after this guy.

^^^^This guy obviously knows nothing about basketball as evidenced by offering zero analysis or useful arguments, and only using the same "Hurley hurl" insult 13 times over. At least find some new or original material.

“We proved it was all for this permit,” Stott said. ​I am curious to know how they proved that it was all for the permit. The article is kind of vague. I am not taking a side either way, I just would like some more detailed information. Also, it seems totally backwards that someone could lose their hunting privileges for 10 years and still be allowed to guide.

Lol, it's easy to get the UA basketball fans riled up. It's still very early in the season. Do I think ASU will be top 5 towards the end of the season? No. Do I think UA will be outside of the top 10? Probably not. But it's fun to see ASU doing well in a sport that they have almost always struggled in. It makes the rivalry more interesting for sure. I can guarantee you UA is not looking at the Devils as 2 easy wins on their schedule like they normally do. I enjoy the friendly banter too

I knew this would get a rise out of the UA faithful. I should have phrased it "the best NBA player that played college ball in AZ". You're seriously going to try and tell me that Steve Kerr was a better NBA player than Harden?!?! Give me a break. Winning a ring is a team award, not an individual award. Obviously an NBA championship is the ultimate goal, but that's not the point I'm trying to make.
