There are many great drummers. Peart, Bonham, Moon, Stewart Copeland, Buddy Rich…even Ringo…and not necessarily in that order. My top guy? Peart. Technically sound, intricate, dedication. Great lyricist. Was perfect for Rush and loved watching him! As for the remaining guys, all great drummers who were perfect for their respective bands. Again, even Ringo who I’ve been learning to really like. I just feel Neal was a step above. A sleeper that I love watching from back in the day is Joe Morello who played with Brubeck.

Artie was a bit unconventional. Took me a little, but ended up really liking him. RIP, Tiny Tot!

Let James Cook!! Happy the deal got done!

Can’t stand buying cars. Especially when the salesperson has no clue what they are selling. I’ve walked out on a few deals when it’s not what I wanted. Have gotten a call back, other times never went back. Best story is I purchased my first new car - a 92 Dodge Dakota pickup. I offered $10,500 for it, salesperson basically agreed. Went to his manager who was yelling at him in his office. Thought it was a ploy. Nope, apparently salesperson sold it for too low as the manager had to agree to sell it at that price. Ultimately was it a show in their part? Maybe. But got a good price. I won’t buy a brand new car any longer. The last two cars I bought for my wife were Honda’s just off a 2 year lease. Found a few cars on the dealers website that I was targeting. Did my research on price, researched extended warranty cost, worked out payments with what I wanted to put down. Figured out everything before I entered the dealership. A little haggling, but stuck pretty close to what I was willing to pay. Cars had 10,500 and 14,000 miles on them and were in great shape. At two years old, figure any issues with that model year are taken care. Also, don’t have the instant drop in value once you drive a new car off the lot. I’ve leased the last two Silverado’s I got for myself. Last one, I purchased outright at end of lease as it was worth 5k more than my buyout. Leasing is good for the right situation. I owned a business many years ago and it was great for that. For myself, it worked out when they had great lease plans with not a lot down. When buying new, do your research. Find out what manufacturer rebates are to the dealer, current rebates from the dealer, MSRP and if that vehicle is selling above or below. Research trade in value, or get a quote from Carvana as said above. Most important, don’t have a target payment. Dealer can get you whatever payment you want. Negotiate price and payment will follow.

They were concerned about no injuries, individual efforts. Seeing how guys did their jobs in a glorified scrimmage. Game plan, scheme were not on the menu.

First. Four straight as an amazing feat. Yep, winning would have been great. Winning one and not going back versus four straight loses? I don’t know..those 4 years plus were amazing. Josh? Kelly and company had a HOF WT, RB, DE, Coach and QB. Josh has a HOF himself and maybe LT depending? IMHO tough to compare teams.

Yes, players have been converted in the past. I’m wondering who the “cement handed” WR is you want to convert, or is it a general question?

No way was there 69K fans on the stands. Many open seats in my section with people spread out and being comfortable. Lot 7 was nowhere near full.

How is it obvious? We played a vanilla defense with no schemes. Not a great measuring stick for an entire season.

Wouldn’t get too concerned over how the defense played as a whole, or how individuals played. McD’s defenses are good and he gets the most out of his players…not concerned. This was a preseason game with a vanilla defense and no game planning. The Giants/Daboll have many reason they needed to play well and am sure they schemed more than us.

Yeah…knee down.

Many, many times. Several car wrecks. Father who fell. Myself - shellfish allergy and had a re-reaction. Work in a clinic and have had to call several time for patients who coded and those who needed transport to the hospital for other issues. Called on a guy who was swerving terribly back and forth.

Hope the stated timeline is pre-season centric. Wonder if it would be a shorter timeline in season?

Happy Birthday, Marv!

GM of Empire. Was also the sports director at WKBW before that.

So he’s going the Myles Garrett route of “severing ties” with the organization and city?? 😏

Wig had emergent surgery for a detached retina. Doc told her in less than a year, she would need to have surgery for cataracts. Ended up needing the surgery and fixed her distance issues, but needs reading classes now. Was pretty simple surgery for her and got great results in clearing her vision.

What I cook at the game will stay the same - gilled chicken wings and Utz Dill Pickle chips. Beer menu will be different. Won’t bring any of the good farm ales, sours or others. Just plain Miller Lite.

Those who bring it up may think it’s funny, but I feel Beane harbors some ill will about it. What he called them in this video was a bit much. Especially since they were just about to sign Elijah Moore when the WGR interview went down. Not that I feel bad for the WGR guys. Just think a Beane should not react like he does to it still. After he called them “as***”. I do feel he called them out. And again, I don’t feel bad for the WGR guys personally. They put themselves in that position.

Great interview with good info as usual from Beane. My only issue? When he calls out the guys from WGR about the WR conversation. Seems a bit petty at this point.

Dude has rushed for 2,318 yards. Made 8.4 million. Assume 4 million after taxes/agent. Contract details career Not a bad career.

RIP Ozzy. Remember the halls at high school buzzing with his bat head biting exploits before I knew who he was. Truly one of a kind.

RIP Chuck. Such great music: Legend of the One Eyed Sailor Hill Where the Lord Hides Children of Sanchez The XIth Commandment Family marched Drum and Bugle corps in late 70’s and early 80’s. His music was a staple of many Corps. Such great memories of the power of his music.

Top on our team at the moment. Hard to say where he ends up this year other than flashy deep route guys are usually the ones considered “top 10”. Where does he end up stats wise? 800-900 yards, so most likely just around top 25?
