The CK Daily – Embracing the Excitement of College Football
Good Morning & Happy Tuesday! I don’t know about you, but I’ve got a little extra pep in my step this week as we are right on the cusp of college football starting back this weekend! It’s the kickoff to what I consider “the most wonderful time of the year”!
I’m definitely a “sports person” and enjoy watching everything from baseball to golf and even Nascar, but there’s something extra special about college football, IMO. The passion that the players bring to the field is unmatched and that passion almost seems contagious when you’re a fan! Who doesn’t love watching amateur athletes laying it all on the line out on the field to help bring their school to victory?!
I also love the personal/family connections that so many college football fans have to their favorite teams. I went to UGA and have so many fun memories of tailgating with friends for hours before games, catching the Dawg Walk, and filing into the stadium with 92,000+ other fans to cheer on the Dawgs. The sights, the sounds, and the smells are all firmly entrenched in my memory!
Unfortunately, those student ticket prices go away upon graduation so game days look a lot different these days. I don’t make it to Sanford Stadium as much as I’d like, but we still love to get together as a family on game days, make delicious game day food, and enjoy all the tradition, passion, and intense competition college football has to offer!

Product Spotlights & Updates
The Gigabit Loopback Jack and Plug quickly and easily checks the RX/TX pairs of 1000base network cables, helping a network technician determine if a network signal exists or if there are broken or shorted wires within the cabling. It can be plugged directly into an Ethernet wall port or can be attached to the end of a network patch cable. If a signal is present, the SuperLooper sends the signal back to the source illuminating the port light on the associated switch or router. The Gigabit Loopback Jack and Plug is backward compatible with 10base and 100base networks.
Learning Center Article – How to Repair Cut Fiber
As we all know, fiber optic lines are complicated, powerful, and delicate. They provide incredibly powerful communication signals with high bandwidths and great reliability. But, because they are so delicate, they can be damaged.
When damage occurs, you can either repair it or replace it, and the former option is much cheaper.
