OP: Hate to rain on the parade, but it's a friday today and a lot of people are at work.I know it would kind of ruin the surprise, but do you suppose you could find it in your heart to put a NSFMrsK designation on the thread title?

I get where you're coming from, but this is too much for work? Half the ads on this site are worse than that, and they still aren't that bad.
Ads
Ads are determined by what you are looking at on the Internet. I get a ton of stuff for financial tools, briefcases and cars. I guess we know where you've been. Sinner.

1) Ads to some extent are
1) Ads to some extent are based on your browsing history (See StephenRKass's story about getting Victoria's Secret ads after his daughter uses his computer), so they might not be so explicit depending on what kinds of sites you/your family members visit. A lot of other sports sites will include gratuitous semi-nudity in "related articles", but if you only visit MGoBlog, that's not as much a problem.
2) The only reason I use AdBlock Plus on MGoBlog is because I'm an MGoAddict and often check the site in public places. So for a lot of us, the blog is "clean" unless someone posts something like this.

Yep
My daughter's in the Navy now, so all her ads don't pop up. (She started boot camp at Great Lakes two days ago.) However, ads for her preferences did show up for a while, and I could definitely tell when she'd been using my laptop a lot. High heels, Victoria's Secret, Gilly Hick's . . . ads for all of them came up. It wasn't even bonding time, as we didn't really chat about her clothing preferences. That would have been uncomfortable.
Regardless, as much as I appreciate Kate Upton, I always appreciate a heads up before I open a post, as regards photos, etc. Thanks!

Very hard transition
Very hard transition, especially for mom. However, it is a good choice for our daughter. We can't afford to send her to Michigan, and she doesn't want to ratchet up endless loans. $180k toward college costs when she's finished with the Navy looks pretty good, right now.

There is definitely some
There is definitely some powerful economic incentive to join the service, and the lessons you learn therein are worth just as much. But a tough transition. After graduating high school, my sister recently left the country to serve on a mission for a while, and it's definitely hard on the family. But it's also a really great opportunity, and those are the times when you grow up the most.

If she's still at Great Lakes
@SRK: If she's still at Great Lakes next Thanksgiving, and cannot make it home, she's welcome to join us for dinner. We've hosted sailors before and they're always great guests. She's free to bring a few friends along as well.
Nobody home...
Thanks for your kind offer!
Thanks for your kind offer! That's very gracious and generous of you. However, we're in the fortunate position of being only an hour away (western suburbs,) and my sisters both live in Evanston, which is even closer. Her A school and C schools will all be at Great Lakes after basic, so we'll get to see her a fair amount in the next two years. That should make the transition a bit easier for both her and my wife.

No worries. I get a lot of
No worries. I get a lot of ads for funny t-shirts, which I've never purchased, and I just figured they targeted college age dudes and thought sports blogs were a good way to get a lot of them.
I don't work in an office currently, but when I did, surfing a sports blog during work was as much of an offense as looking at the cover of the Swimsuit Edition, so I don't see the difference.
Well that very well might be
Well that very well might be true. Like I said, I've never seen ads on MGoBlog so I don't really know. Either way, I can't access MGoBlog at the office (dang filters), so it doesn't affect me directly, but there are a lot of people who do go on it at work. Of course, it's probably better that I can't go on it at work, as I'd probably lose a lot of productivity if I did.

I must be getting the wrong ads. How do I get the good ones?
This "not suitable for work" business is...
...pathetically dumb. As if reading a football blog at the office is somehow more suitable than looking at the cover of a swimsuit magazine.

You realize though that she's
You realize though that she's on the cover of SI Swimsuit Edition, so it's probably not just the board who is infatuated with her, right? Generally, girls who look "real basic" don't make the covers of popular swimsuit magazines.
Look - if you want to say "she's not my type" or "I'm more attacted to a different type of girl" that's fine. Personally, I don't think Beyonce is all that, but I know many do and I can certainly see why they think so, it's just not my taste.
Kate Upton's not your ideal woman? Got it. But you took it too far to be believable.
Having appeared on the cover of SI...
...does that mean she is going to lose in the playoffs next week? How come the SI cover jinx doesn't work on supermodels?
It means she will now not
It means she will now not sleep with me. There are a lot of women who have not appeared on the cover of SI who have slept with me, but somehow all of the women who have are a big 0-fer in the "sleeping with WolvinLA" category.
You might try to say "but I doubt she would have slept with you even if she wasn't on this cover" but the truth is we'll never know.
It all makes sense now.

I think that's part of what makes her so attractive. She's beautiful, and yet seems so normal. She's not an uptight, anorexic skeleton like so many models are.
