  1. The plan is to go with Moss and Singletary and Breida.
  2. You clearly have never run a fowl of canadian geese in WalMart parking lot. They're nasty f@#$ers.
  3. Its not a joke but BTC is still unrealistic as a currency which is why they now tout it as digital gold. The fees to transfer BTC and time it takes to validate on the block chain are far from ideal. I was very high on ETH in 2017. I have seen almost no development on the ETH blockchain. No common apps on the blockchain, so far away from being "the World's Super Computer". Other supposed Ethereum killers like ADA and EOS have done nothing over the past 4 years. Bitcoin may retain value IF companies like Tesla hold their coins and BTC remains relatively scarce. I don't know how that lines up with responsible corporate governance. As a TSLA investor I can say I wasn't crazy about that decision from a capital allocation standpoint and if BTC has another 80-90% retrace as its done the past few cycles then I will be further pissed off. The biggest thing BTC has going for it is scarcity with an approximate 40% of existing coins lost forever and now large stakes owned by corporations who have the ability to hold for years. Retail will run for the exits if it starts to slide as they do every time.
  4. The whole scene seemed very familiar and thats when I remembered where I had seen it before.
  5. https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2021/4/30/22413462/eagles-howie-roseman-tom-donahoe-nfl-draft-2021-philadelphia-milton-williams-defensive-tackle-dt Tom Donahoe visibly frustrated with Howie Roseman who is too pleased with himself to notice. The Iggles off-season has been mired with rumors of a total disconnect between owner Lurie and GM Roseman and the rest of the front office and coaching staff. This will only add more fuel to the fire. https://theathletic.com/2506187/2021/04/12/paranoia-mismanagement-and-office-politics-inside-the-eagles-downfall-under-jeffrey-lurie-howie-roseman/
  6. I also wonder if that's a net positive. There is no denying that a healthy OBJ is an elite weapon but one of the Browns bigger problems was lack of identity on offense. They wanted to air it out and get OBJ 10 targets a game and they got shredded. The Browns finally found some rhythm taking the ball out of Baker's hands and establishing the run the run game. With OBJ back in the lineup I think they will feel the pressure again to force balls his way and get away from what was working. I remain unconvinced that Baker is a guy that you want to put the game in his hands.
  7. The Bills WON the division last year which is a lot different than coming in 3rd. In fact, they swept it. The Browns went 1-3 against the only decent teams in the NFC North and were swept by the Ravens. I am not convinced the Stillers are just going to roll over and die. I don't think the Browns are Vegas the favorite to win their own division let alone 2nd best in the AFC.
  8. They have beaten the Ravens 4 times in the last 11 years. They have beaten the Steelers 4 times in the last 11 years but they did tie them once. I am not convinced they have gotten any monkeys off their backs.
  9. Cleveland needs to worry about going 0.500 in the AFC North. Cleveland last finished better than 3rd in the AFC North in 2002. Cleveland has not won their division since 1989. In conclusion, shut up about the Browns. SHUT UP ABOUT THE F@#$ING BROWNS!!!
  10. You were surprised the market price of Bitcoin fell below your cost basis because crypto goes up. Not much to understand there but if you feel there was some kind of salient point that flew over my head then by all means, enlighten me.
  11. Maybin's playing weight was closer to 230. He maxed his narrow frame for the combine gaining about 15 lbs between the end of the season and the combine. He clearly trained for it and it paid off big for him. Unfortunately it came at the expense of our Bills. Maybin had that "quick first step" but that isn't enough at the NFL level. IIRC, Maybin and Ed Wang was a big camp battle. Wang never played a down in the NFL. MAybin got swallowed up by any NFL lineman worth a damn. I don't see the similarities.
  12. You didn't expect the most volatile asset in the world that is on a 12 month run of +555% to ever dip below $51k? The last time BTC went on a run like this it went from $1,000 to $20k and a year later could be bought for $3,300. Is there any reason to believe the crypto cycle which we have seen 3 times before will not repeat itself again with an 80% retrace? Maybe give it 5 years.
  13. Capacity protocols and mask requirements, among others. Do you have a point or are you just trying to play "gotcha"?
  14. Boomer bars? Only one of us here is a boomer. I'm a millennial according to my date of birth. The bars I avoided are known Covid hotspots among the early 20s crowds, as in I know multiple people who can trace Covid back to those bars which are all shutdown by the Texas liquor authority for breaking Covid protocols. Does Covid avoid hacky sack circles at Umphrees shows?
  15. I live in the city of Houston. All the ugly stuff is reserved for the bad parts of town. Texas got back on its feet quickly and I have been comfortable with the way the local businesses have handled it. I've been going to bars and restaurants regularly since last May. I avoid the young bars which were Covid hot spots and really only self-quarantined before we were going to be in contact with elderly members of our families.
  16. I don't watch college ball much so I normally go from "well, thats not what I expected" conveniently ignoring the fact that my expectations were poorly defined and based on nothing and then I read everything and get convinced we fleeced the field.
  17. We are 13 hours away from saying "WTF were you thinking!?!?!" and 24 hours away from saying "OK, after sleeping on it and doing some more research on the guy, I really am starting to like the pick".
  18. The Bills MIGHT take a first round round CB or RB and they are also linked to an undersized Penn State pass rusher who gets no sacks and I am about one straw away from being so f@#$ing done with this team.
  19. Because moving to the burbs so I talk about lawn care with the neighborhood cool dads and maybe hit the nearest Chili's on Fridays for date night with the missus sounds like a fate worse than never ending pandemic.
  20. There's no way that Teddy B and the 6th round pick they gave up takes them out of the QB market if someone falls to them.
  21. Since you feel you've been duped I will personally pay for your next big fight night Pay-Per View experience. All you need to do is attend this free, no pressure seminar about the benefits of owning a time share.
  22. He was considered in the honorable mention category. The list is only the Top 5. Did you read it?
  23. Based on the consistent vomit emojis some of you have a real disdain for free markets and private property rights.
