  1. He definitely should have taken the deal. I thought so, way back at the beginning of this season. I'm just not convinced an agent could have gotten him to take it, either. If someone has an over flated sense of value, they rarely listen to anyone or take sound advice. Because they will always find a yes man to tell them what they want to hear. He played himself.
  2. Seeing some between $50-$60. Going to wait a couple more hours and see what else opens up. Going to take my son. I mean how often is he going to get a chance to attend a FF. And at 9 y/o he better not complain about the cheap seats.
  3. Would we be interested in Dickinson? https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/36019466/michigan-center-hunter-dickinson-enters-transfer-portal
  4. I don't fear my bull when I am in the pen with him. But I understand what can happen if shit goes sideways. So I take proper precautions. When I carry, I don't carry out of fear. I carry because I understand what can happen if shit goes sideways. So I take appropriate precautions. I don't carry every day, but when I feel the need, I damn sure do. There is not a damn thing wrong with that. I'm glad that you have never felt the need to carry. And I hope you never have to. But don't be so dismissive of other people's concerns or experiences. The problem is people who think like you are never going to change your opinion or accept anything other than what you think. There are plenty of examples of people defending themselves with guns. But, it's not going to change your opinion. So just state your opinion and leave it at that. Stop trying to shame/piss on folks who don't share your view. Note: The last paragraph wasn't personally directed at you. Just a general observation of the whole thread.
  5. Fair point. But QB money is a lot different than LT money. Larry's career earnings are projected to be $93M by 2026. And QB's are the face of the league. I don't think it's owner collusion or any of that nonsense. But I do think that the agents don't want to see guys getting 9 figure-guaranteed contracts without them.
  6. It's why you don't wear flip flops, slides or sandals in certain places.
  7. How the hell do Corn Pops not make the tournament?
  8. Jim Fish, chief executive of Waste Management Inc., described the situation this way: “We can’t hire a truck driver to drive a trash truck for $90,000 in Houston, Texas, but I can hire an M.B.A. from a small school for $60,000, and I can get them all day long.” “The world seems to have flipped on its head,” Mr. Fish says. https://www.wsj.com/articles/jobs-new-college-graduates-2023-labor-market-openings-7195e28
  9. I would guess there is a lot of salt being thrown at Lamar and his family by the agents. The last thing they want is a guy free ranging. Other players might start getting funny ideas.
  10. I wasn't even thinking about it in racial terms, because there are plenty of Black politicians and cops who would be happy to take my guns. So, we're past the race component(in the bigger picture). It's about politics to me and not wanting political weaponization of red flag laws. Which is why I used the Trans example. Now in my defense, Bozo, you left it open to interpretation. As long as you have legitimate checks and balances to adjudicate domestic and mental health issues then that's fine. What else are your red flag laws going to cover? And who is going to determine the validity of any reports? If I'm stupid enough to post political opinions on FB and then really, really stupid to post gun pics, is that going to get me flagged? There is no leeway in a 7-day waiting period. No misunderstanding about an age limit. But there is plenty of room to interpret and misuse red flag laws. I'm not saying you can't have them. But the rulings need to be above reproach as much as possible. At least that's how I see it.
  11. No offense taken. I was just giving my opinion.
  12. I'll more readily accept a 7 day waiting period and age limits before I accept 'stronger red flag laws', whatever that means. We don't even enforce the red flag laws on the books that we have. And you can call me whatever names you want, but I don't trust LEO and politicians to not make it a political weapon. Americans face political persecutions in this country every day from their political opposites. Why would I want to give them more power? And don't fool yourself into thinking that it only cuts one way on guns. There are rumblings that Trans people shouldn't have guns because of their supposed mental conditions. And those clowns claim to be 2A supporters.
  13. Good at her job, but extremely unlistenable.
  14. I open carry when I am in the country, especially if I'm working. I have drawn some odd looks from the neighbors when they pass by while I'm fixing fence or something. I don't see the point of open carrying in an urban environment. It can make you a bigger target and just seems too flashy. I've seen them in HEB, Krogers, Home Depot, etc. Several of the idiots were too busy on the phone, so it have been easy to pop them upside the head and just take the damn gun.
  15. Entrepreneurs. Just because you sold your old Playstation on Ebay or Let Go does not make you an entrepreneur. Hell, can you even spell entrepreneur?
  16. IOW we need one of those white guys that the other fan bases hate with passion.
  17. Is Zep the last playa standing? She is definitely ready to breast feed. Congratulations.
  18. It also should be announced before the playoffs start.
