I get what you're saying, but there are also a lot of kids with that opportunity and access who dont/cant take AP Calc because they just arent smart enough.

But I would never say that because it's putting way too much blame in the wrong place. It has nothing to do with the average bloke. Average blokes have been reselling tickets at big markups for decades. It never affected the product. Billionaires scraping another 10% off the backs of the working class so they can hoard wealth they nor their descendants will ever be able to spend, and sitting on that pile of gold like Smaug, is what is directly ruining it. Much like pollution. It isnt on you or I to fix the environment by using paper straws. It's 5-10 huge corporations across the world that make up 90% of all pollution. The notion that WE are the responsible/accountable ones is just a ruse. And propaganda to keep the rich richer and us fighting.

Cost of access. All those superior stadiums arent being built with us common folk in mind. They're being built so owners can sell seats/PSLs/Suites to corporations who use it as a write off and hope to find some executive available to take a "client" with them. Concessions in almost all of those new stadiums are unreasonable for a family of 4. Those superior broadcasts arent on the free airwaves anymore. First you had to buy cable to get the MNF games. Now you have to have cable, and Prime, and Peacock, and Netflix, and... So sure, portions of the product have been improved, but the common man has a much higher cost of access. And the improvements arent so great that they balance that out. I'd also argue that NOTHING should be consumed 24/7/365. And trying to fill all that time just waters down the product and creates far more worthless noise than quality content. The next step is burn out. Oops, triggered the billionaire.

This late-stage capitalism is ruining everything.

For what it's worth, Bernard is listed at 225, and weighed in at 224 at his combine. So not sure where 215 is coming from. And that said, looking at Leonhard's most recent roster in Denver, his ILBs were 226, 226, 231, 235, 241. Elarms-Orr weighed in at 234 if that helps. 🤷‍♂️ I'm not going to worry about 5-10 pounds when what we really need is better IDL play to keep them clean.

Literally pisses it away into a testing cup

Great season. So good to have hockey back and have it mean something. Really fun playoff run, and I'll never complain about knocking Boston out of anything. We can all daydream about what could have been, but for where this team has been the last decade, I'll take this return to relevance. The one "negative" I'd like to discuss more is Alex Tuch. He was SO BAD this Montreal series that even I, a big fan, am ok with letting him walk. How could he be that bad? Not sure if anyone else caught it but at the start of (I believe) the 3rd period, dude fell down twice while skating and no one around him. Like it was his first time on ice or something. I wonder if there is an injury there. Either a broken bone, or a severe concussion. I've never seen anything like it before. He went from very good player and leader of the team to looking like he never played hockey before.

It isnt for pot tho. A lot of these probation agreements have alcohol included too, which is legal everywhere. There's a bunch of other stuff that couldve gotten him locked up too. It just happened to be the pot part this time.

I'm only 4min in and he sounds fine to me! Makes a lot of references to Terrell Bernard, so doesnt sound like he's going anywhere anytime soon.

Im about to go google, but does anyone have a link to the actual Presser available?

I think some of yall are taking this either too literally, or too much from the "Josh side". It isnt about Josh specifically. Insert any QB name, it just happened to be who Jaire was facing this game. The point he was trying to make was that he could tell in real time that he didnt have it anymore.

Snickers is my favorite. But after dealing with WGR callers all day, I'd probably prefer a Xanny bar.

Flashback the 00s! Now WGR will go back to HATING the Bills and not talking about them at all. Did WGR lose the Sabres too?

Oh lol, didnt see this thread before I made mine. Will self-mod appropriately!
