    Again...it's not Walmart. The company owns none of those teams. Individual people do.

     

    This would be like saying Microsoft owned the Seahawks when Paul Allen owned the team.

     

    It's false and makes you look like you are clueless.

     

    If it makes you feel better.  They share the same interests.

     

    It would be like saying Stephen A. works for ESPN, not Disney.

    I didn’t say all truth...I said they don’t believe in objective truth- meaning these ideologues don’t believe in things you can actually measure scientifically, like women...👍

     

    They believe everything is relative...

     

    Whenever I hear someone say "Your Truth", I immediately interrupt and say, "That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard."

    Wow, walking on egg shells and watching your back every minute of your life. 

     

    What has happened when you have transgressed?

     

    At least you admit it affects us every day.

     

    How far do you want to move the goal post?

    Just bought mine. Bills sideline, section C116. Row 3. Probably won’t be able to see over the players, but we’ll have a great view of JA17 calves. Wait, what? 
     

    Anyway, can’t wait!! 

    Why are the majority of the lower bowl called "club seats"?

     

    What are the benefits compared to a regular seat?

    Had someone told me a short, couple of years ago, that I'd get a perfectly cooked piece of meat (beef, pork, etc) by putting it in a warm water bath, in a plastic bag (Ziploc or vacuum-sealed), I would've laughed in their faces.  Smoking, grilling, and pan searing had been my jam.

     

    But getting this sous vide contraption has been flat out great.  Did a flank steak this past Friday.  Garlic, thyme, olive oil, salt, pepper in a Ziploc bag; two hours in 134F water, then wiped down with a paper towel, and added to a screaming hot cast iron pan w olive oil and butter for 1 min per side.  Perfectly done on the inside with the char that you want on the outside.  Mind blown.

     

    I found out that telling people that you Sou Vide their steak will make them hate it, because they think you just boiled away the flavor.

  5. Looks like Top Gun Maverick will break the Memorial Day Record with $156million, and $261M worldwide.

    It needs to Gross $340M to start making a profit. (%50 of tickets with a budget of $170)

     

    Let's see if it can beat the original.

     

    Adjusted for inflation, the original made $942M, with a budget of $40M. Profit: $430M

     

    Target to match original: $1.2Billion Worldwide.

  6. For the people arguing about why it's happening, it can be ALL the reasons mentioned so far. There is more than one way to lose an audience.

     

    ESPN went political and hired more controversial hosts to produce clickbait headlines to draw younger viewers. What they failed to realize is that the social media generation won't tune in to hour long shows, but prefer 30sec tiktok clips.

    I finally saw a commercial for the new Top Gun movie last night.

    They show a few scenes that are stupid and cheesy, and some of the visual effects didn't look good.

    Like the new "Pearl Harbor" or "Midway" movies but with F-18s.

     

    The flying and planes were real. They had real pilots doing maneuvers with the actors in the back seat. Most of the CGI used was adding the explosions.

    The innovations in this movie involved finding ways to film the action inside and around the fighters.

    https://screenrant.com/how-much-of-top-gun-maverick-is-real-cgi/

     

    Also, my showing had a mini-Behind-the-Scenes interview with the pilots who flew the planes.

     

    It added a little more "WoW factor" knowing it was real.

    I’m pretty sure there are key phrases and pictures that many of these evil people posted on social media.  Profiling works. 

     

    Remember, when someone said it made him nervous that too many Bills fans had American flags and pictures of dogs on their social media? Or that parents are domestic terrorists for disagreeing with teachers. Who will create the search engine? I don't trust the process there...

     

    Even the algorithms will be biased because the left reports everything, while the right reports nothing. Can't even trust an AI to be impartial.

     

    That's assuming we just give up on the illusion of privacy.

     

    There is already a secret scoring system for Social Justice when applying to Colleges. I guess we can also incorporate China's social point system: If you're high risk, you're not allowed on public transportation. Really high risk? You're not allowed out of your house.

     

    The current method is to put them on a watch list. It's a little different once you give the government the authority to limit your rights based on profiles.

    NOTHING would be solved!!  They most likely would have figured a way to carry out their acts regardless of age restrictions.  

     

    It's the red flag ***** we have to figure out.  TikTok's algorithm can nail the kind of content I'd love but we can't put two and two together on social media posts.  ***** the disinformation/censorship bull####.  Twitter, Facebook, Instagram etc. should be involved in figuring out how to see these red flags and get them reported to the FBI.  

     

    That would flag the entire Alphabet community as having mental issues, (which medically it is). How about Scientologists? Flat-Earthers? Peta?

     

    It's not as easy as just preventing crazy people from getting guns, because almost everyone has some sort of psychosis. We're back to drawing a line on where that is, similar to abortion.

     

    One side wants  a complete ban, while the other wants unfettered access.

    OK educate me here is this argument over selling the ticket that you might sell it to an opposing teams fan Diluting the home-field advantage thing am I missing something

     

    Scalpers inflate ticket prices which prevent fans from attending games.

    Part of the strategy of keeping prices low is to grow a team's fanbase. It's a trade-off from increasing it on their own and attracting only corporate attendees.

     

    Greenbay can eliminate the wait list by simply raising prices to match the market.
