Advice Needed re: Managerial Dilemma at Work
NoSaint replied to Fadingpain's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Yup.... though if you were in that moment at work, it’s not impossible you’d space out and forget the IM is blocked. Im not saying it’s no big deal but if usually a stellar employee and it was a catastrophically embarrassing moment paired with an ineffective way to communicate- way different than coasting out cause my tummy doesn’t feel good and not telling anybody cause I don’t really care. One I’d try to grant some grace and the other would get a pretty quick pink slip -

Agreed. Unless she’s legit had an accident in her pants, she needs to communicate in person and direct there. Her pride in front of him can’t be prioritized over his ability to do his job in front of dozens of key people i will admit that if she’s almost 100% on that every other day I’d consider some slack/empathy but if it’s a semi regular occurrence then my patience would be gone -
Deadspin had an article a few years back about a dude that applied for press passes to braves games. Just made up a newspaper name. He was consistently approved for full access for a couple years and hung out in the club house. There have been a few remarkable stories about guys that dressed out and sat at the end of the bench at basketball games etc... but post 9/11 it’s probably a lot more likely to catch you a felony than it would’ve 20+ years ago

Kyle throws punches at Jordan Mills

Obviously if it was you would’ve posted it first ? -
Cardale starting tonight for Chargers
NoSaint replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was more pro-Rosen of the two. I didn’t see the cards game but would react by saying that how a first preseason game goes isn’t worth much reaction. It felt like he was already a huge long shot and that the guy that couldn’t stay out of fights when visiting HS football games back home probably needed to be out of buffalo to have his best shot (still an incredible long shot) -
Peterman is now officially TRADE BAIT
NoSaint replied to Punt75's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My point was he has flaws. He may overcome them. They may end his career. But to pretend that everyone that’s skeptical is ONLY looking at the San Diego game is disingenuous. -

What are you counting as downfield? -

Soooooo why do you think he was a day 3 pick before that game? -
Tremaine Edmunds played light & tight
NoSaint replied to Punt75's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Needs work but also doesn’t need to be running through brick walls in August. It’s a loooooong season. His camp will be about getting good reps balanced with keeping him fresh for the much longer nfl season. -
[edited title] Robert Foster, UDFA - Roster shot?
NoSaint replied to Bronxbomber21's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ouch. A few of these takes are aging very poorly. always has to be a huuuuge red flag when a talent that big produces that little in a college career -
Cam never go back from that though. He’s the guy that is last to get those reps as he doesn’t hand the ball back til he’s cut/retired. Could see this as the audition for peterman to make the 53 vs ps vs trade. Theres just too much in allen and ajm for peterman to start unless he really wins this

Right? There are very few guys even in our worst drafts where I’d jump on that.... yet alone 1st rounders. Maybin? And even then it’s not like I’m celebrating.

How Bad Does Service Have To Be Not To Tip?
NoSaint replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Which is kind of backwards no? Reward the bad employee and punish the owners and other employees by not coming back? im to a degree the same way but try to pay attention to if it’s a bad employee or systematic issues. I also try to grant some grace for bad days... but realistically my gut is to do like you do unless I really think about it -
While you may handle the conversation responsibly... there are those that certainly do not. while race may not be a factor for you - I have a hard time believing it’s not a major factor for some and an incremental issue (probably even total subconsciously) for many. Cams brash and deserves some comments for sure. I’m not saying he’s perfect. I do think the rubric for scoring black QBs is generally a little harsher than their counterparts though.

As ones had drug, domestic abuse issues, etc... while the other is mostly just brash in his TD celebrations on his way to the super bowl in an mvp caliber season.... That we are comparing the two as apples to apples miiiiight give some credence to us being harder on the black guy. Not everyone but almost certainly some. As Johnny’s been out of the league for years now... maybe not the best metric?

Not so flattering write-up on Ray Lewis and the NFL
NoSaint replied to Heavy Kevi's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Really to become the pinnacle of nfl moral superiority somehow. He’s the god fearing uber motivating and ultimate teammate with the murder as not even an asterisk but is a footnote to a footnote to a special edition limited print of the book on his career. It’s anazing how his reputation has so little hint of it for many fans. Define skeletons? Cause I definitely have some things I’m not super proud of but none of the murder variety. -
Bills trade with Browns for Corey Coleman
NoSaint replied to 17islongenough's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yup- all upside really. I’d trade conditional day 3 picks for first round guys in bad situations all day. Typically even the big first round busts are above average for day 3 picks and without the bonus or picking up the option the contracts aren’t bad if they flop either. -

Benjamin zay coleman kerley could be a functional top 4 and we have some decent 5-7 type guys for depth/upside. He’s a risk but he at least gives a better shot at fielding a competent group -
Fitz worked pretty hard on it. And short of Orton I’d say most of those guys cared
