We fired our GM whose entire tenure was keeping the purse strings closed (which needed to be done but doesn’t take any talent), taking credit for the talent the GM before him drafted or signed while dodging the fault of them making too much money, then shipping any promising talent not named Cam or Luke out of town as…

These motors don’t function the same as an e-bike motor. You still would have to work while riding much much more than you would a classic e-bike. This isn’t something designed with being effective as its main goal, it’s to stay hidden and silent, how much power it produces takes a back seat to that. You could buy…

From what I’ve seen they aren’t so much there to propel you as they are to there to supplement the wattage your already applying to the pedals. Just a normal 2 stroke weed-eater bike would be better for most city commuters than these systems, not to mention much more economical.

I didn’t mean it as an accusation that he didn’t enjoy his time or anything. It’s just from hearing him speak before about being aware of all the risks and everything and still choosing it because he loved it despite everything makes me wonder how early on he planned on the pension. He obviously couldn’t have stated…

Obviously, but I’ve heard him on various podcasts speaking to the ideas of either the different levels of pay players get and how that effects them or the risk vs reward aspects of playing, both of which are probably going to continue to be common topics and he will have a unique perspective on it at he gets further…

I wonder how much of his career was for “a love for football” and how much was just smartly making the most money possible fresh out of school and saying what was needed to make it to that pension. I always loved seeing him in interviews, I hope he doesn’t completely disappear now that he isn’t in the league.

I imagine a guy in the gym would have the same mindset as I do, I would much prefer to have someone write me off as a goofy self-important jackass that is trying to unsuccessfully show off than to have that person approach me while I’m concentrating on the thing I do to shut the rest of the world out.

I’m saying I imagine if I dress in a way to off put the people that get all judgey of others based on what gear they are using, I’m willing to bet there are guys in the gym doing the same thing. Dude in the florescent camo tights could be wearing them because they want that blogger that considers themselves a workout…

Ideally. I’m kind of convinced that most accidents involving cyclists isn’t because they weren’t seen. I know it is why they are available, but I’m not wearing my florescent yellow vest over a neon watermelon kit because I think it will save my life, I wear it because looking insane is basically fred-repellent.

You could take it like that sure, but the point I was trying to make is that sometimes people dress in a way that appalls you because they are trying to appall you. Not everyone treats their workout as a display of fitting in and do what they can to get people to leave them alone.

My workout is cycling, so those ridiculous colors are actually meant for the high vis stuff. The more truthful reason though is the more ridiculous and outlandish I dress the less likely the guy wearing a king of the mountain kit (cause nothing says classy like a polka dotted pretend award you didnt earn) on his…

Your right, every cities scene had a skinhead problem. Those guys in all those other cities viewed Boston like a Mecca.

I listened to the 30 for 30 on those guys. I knew when they started talking all starry eyed about Boston punks, some of the most facist/racist/bigoted humans to walk the earth the last 50 years, something like this was going to come out. I’m surprised it took this long.

“Get the man” is a very ironic auto-correct of “Gettleman”.

I wish you guys would have kept him then, I remember giants being a little upset when the Panthers snagged him from new york’s front office. I would probably not be so anti-get the man if it was both sides of the line, but Cam has been getting murdered for years because the O-line is made of chicken wire and duct tape.

I would agree that he was a smart cap manager had he ever made something impressive happen with the space he had. He didn’t ever do that, he just bad players for cheap in free agency. I think he was just disciplined in how he spent money rather than smart.

Ok, let’s cool it on the giving Gettleman credit on anything. Outside of lineman he has been crap at drafting and worse in free agency. The single solitary benefit he gave to the team was helping getting out of cap space hell, but how much talent does it take to say “no” to all the deals? He would have been fired…

Had they finished out game 5 it would have been the end of the series.

As silly as trading cards are, it’s gambling/stock market that kids can participate in all the way down to having odds printed on the back of the box. I have to pay for adult things now so I haven’t had the spare cash for that sort of thing for the past decade, but people take these things as seriously as any other…

I want even less for my neighbors to be able to dictate what legal actions I take on my own property.
