Why is it always the "truth-seekers" who suffer the most ?

He’s a guy that people loved to hate for whatever reason. The guy was a great player, a pretty good dude, and never got into any legal trouble or anything like that. I was always a fan.

1. Carvana 100% shot me an offer and showed up the next day with a check and a tow truck. It was the easiest process ever. Obviously if you BS the condition of your car that's a different story, but if what you tell them is legit it's a non-issue. Could I have driven around and tried to sell my car at a million lots and gotten a little more money? Sure, but factoring time and gas into the equation it was well worth it to me to go the Carvana route and be done with it. 2. You might be better off just taking the number from Carvana if you are happy with it, when you trade-in the dealer will work the numbers around so that you might get more for your trade but you'll get less off the new car, or pay more in the finance room, or whatever. It just makes it simpler to only negotiate the one thing with the dealer and just use the cash you get in the transaction rather than trying to use your current car as cash. 3. I've gotten quotes at CarMax a couple times and every time they lowball the crap out of me. 4. I never set foot on the actual dealer lot until the day we are closing the deal for the new car. All the negotiating is done via e-mail and telephone. That way it's on my time schedule, there are fewer dealership "I have to speak to my manager" games, and it's just a better use of my time. I can speak to as many dealers as I want at a time and not have to drive around and waste time. When we come to a deal, I go to the dealership, drive the car, sign the papers and leave. I usually bring my own financing in advance but they don't need to know that until paperwork day. I'm usually in and out in about an hour. By doing it this way I can talk to dealerships from much further away. Since the cars themselves are the exact same thing I can shop around for the best price and then, at the end, if I need to drive further away to get the vehicle I'm doing it for a specific purpose not just for poops and grins. My last 3 cars were bought in Bel Air, MD, Bethlehem, PA, and Nyack, NY. Closest was an hour away, furthest was 2.5. I do that because the dealers nearest to me suck to deal with and the cars are always thousands of dollars more expensive. Service wise I have zero dealership loyalty anyway so I don't care about any of that. Any dealer has to fix warranty or recall issues so it doesn't matter if I bought it there or not. I change my own oil so their BS service packages (that are just an excuse to sell you more services when you bring the car in) are worthless.

The highlight of the 2009 season for me, aside from Dick Jauron getting fired after the previous game, was TO's 98 yard TD pass from Ryan Fitzpatrick.

The annual QB tier rankings from The Athletic
Billl replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
It’s Mahomes, Allen, Jackson, and Burrow in that order then a wide gap after that. Anyone who didn’t put Josh and Lamar in the top tier is an idiot. -
Oh no. Poor C-Section!!

I'm in the Toyota Club currently. I declined club seats in the new stadium because of the prices, season tickets alone was going to be about $3K more than I'm paying now, not including the PSL. My rep reached out to me about a week ago, asking if I was still interested with the newer/lower prices coming out. It was between the 300's and 400's I was offered, both end zone corners. I went for the cheaper ones, just to keep my foot in the door. It is supposed to be. I did it all over email, so I did not get a virtual look at the seats.

You heartless people, going after those poor immigrants. (How am I supposed to exploit them for money now ?) HOLY SHLIT: Melissa Moorman, an employee of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (@KYTC), was FIRED after she blew the whistle on a scheme to give driver's licenses to illegal aliens at $200 each "under the table." Moorman says that the scheme would happen 4-5 times PER DAY at multiple branches across the state, totaling potentially THOUSANDS of invalid licenses. KYTC claims the licenses were issued "in error." After exposing the scheme, Moorman was fired. The KYTC also denied any public request for documentation, withholding nearly 2,300 records. This needs a full investigation now

The annual QB tier rankings from The Athletic
buffblue replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
To me the most honest ranking includes a) Recognition that Josh/Lamar/Mahomes are the top 3 QBs regardless of order AND b) Burrow is the distant #4 BUT still clearly better than anyone in the league other than the big 3 -
I plan on being there, still need to book a hotel, since the Comfort Inn cancelled my reservation.

Same. Probably a 1/2 teaspoon in my whole life @ 57 now. See the movies: "E.T." & "Titanic" & "Star Wars" after the original one... -

end of the month and end of the year are the times the dealerships (or individual salesmen) may need to stretch to hit incentives they get.

At the end, he could have trashed the team and city, nobody would have blamed him... but he didn't. He handled it all with class and I'll always appreciate that.

But can an RB be a holder? Then a team could actually carry the best punter.

Mahomes in tier 1 over Lamar and Allen is a joke. He is clearly the 4th option after last season.
