  1. And AD doesn’t want to play the 5. I’m telling you the Mavs may not take Flagg.
  2. Nico won’t draft a white boy. He’s gonna swap with the Spurs.
  3. Flagg actually fits the Spurs roster better than the Mavs. Just saying.
  4. Mob controls the NBA. Start the rumors now.
  5. Why isn’t the Rio Grand Valley rich with kickers? #noracist.
  6. I was playing golf and my playing partner (who I didn’t know well) and I saw two snakes in the water hazard. He immediately began bragging about almost being bitten by a rattlesnake. The fairway became very quiet and uncomfortable when I said they were diamondback water snakes and not rattlesnakes. I may be unwelcome in the future.
  7. I just want to point out that less than one period after I proclaimed Rantanen a bust he has gone on the greatest heater in NHL history. My reverse psychology move is now legendary.
  8. That’s what I just said. I said there is another scenario where the lender can pull funding, but that wasn’t what happened here. I just literally posted that. Did you not read it?
  9. Every contract has a financing date. That date is well before closing day. If they don’t have lender approval by that date, they can exit the contract without losing earnest money. The buyer and buyer’s agent should have verified they were approved and the lender was ready for closing. They didn’t. Now, there is a scenario where the lender approves the loan before closing, but then on closing day renegs. That’s a different scenario. Based on OP post, I don’t think that is what happened here.
  10. So just a few points of clarification. Your real estate agent should have already been aware of the pending finance commit date from the contract, seen that the lender was going to miss it, and then renegotiated a new closing date with the seller. If the seller refused, then you could have exited the contract without losing your earnest money. But because your realtor failed you, you got stuck with the liability. You would also unlikely have any recourse against the lender because you should have either exited the contract or extended the closing period.
  11. You Surlyites have a cartoon gif for anything.

  13. Thanks for doing this. I always find it fascinating to follow up on old recruiting classes and see results vs rank. Cool stuff.
  14. Love Howard’s size. What’s his 40 time?
  15. Great post. The following isn’t directed at you, but triggered a thought for all parents. Sometimes it doesn’t matter how awesome of a parent you are, some kids are just messed up no matter what. Don’t beat yourself up over it. Conversely, a big part of the reason you have perfect awesome kids sometimes has virtually nothing to do with your super awesome parenting. You just got lucky genetically. Remember that the next time you are criticizing other parents. Finally, there’s a really really good chance that in some ways you are a great parent and in some ways a bad parent. We all have strengths and weaknesses that projects into parenting.
  16. After Mikko’s third goal I checked the Score app to see about any assist. The score said 3-2 not 3-1. It was then I realized the tv broadcast is about 10 seconds behind live, so my euphoria of the hat trick was immediately dulled by the knowledge they were about to score. It was a bummer.
  17. Rantanen is approaching Mo After the hat trick first thing I thought of was you. He’s making a hell of a case for you right now.
  18. Wow. He has gone from invisible to an absolute force the last several games.
  19. So I ran an experiment on the Reddit Conservatives community. I posted some strong factual information with legitimate data sources that paints Trump in a bad light by his own supporters. Sure enough, an hour later the entire thread is gone, with no sign it ever existed. Those rubes that visit that community have no idea they are being spoon fed propaganda by Russian bots and GQP political operatives. It’s just so depressing.
