Doesn't seem like a diva thing to want to play ball with your friends. Plus if Rodgers is iffy on which team he'd go to, I'm sure it would make a difference for a team to say "We'll also bring in your good friend if you play here."

Comments I've gotten from campers with Starlink RV is that it usually works just fine but it'll totally drop out now and again. So not necessarily a perfect solution if you're camping but also remote working. I decided not to get the home Starlink version. I have 3mb now and there would still be a lag if I wanted to do online gaming since it's still satellite, and surprisingly I can usually find a workable stream for sports despite the slow internet. So the $500 box and $100/mo price for Starlink becomes too much for little improvement.

Didn't see it. I'm gonna guess "wow" means bad.

I have a hard time seeing the Raiders as a trade team just because I don't imagine them as Superbowl-bound just by adding Rodgers. I could see SF. With Lance/Rodgers they'd wind up in the same situation as GB is in now with Love/Rodgers, but boy are they close to reaching a Superbowl. And you can trade injured players, so Purdy would be a logical player to throw into a trade.

I have to qualify every year with day/night pistol and shotgun as well as day/night combat course. I'm a good shot, but once you add that element of "You better pass all six of these courses of fire to keep your job" the anxiety ramps up a little. Mostly because you have to shoot in specific ways and I don't want to forget something like the last two rounds as support-hand only. -
When I worked retail the standard greeting was "Hi can I help you" and the standard response was "No, just browsing." But of course the key is to get them chatting so you can help them and in turn, get the commission. So I started greeting people with "What's the good word?" The weird question would throw people off and I got more people to talk that way. Although a lady once chewed me out for it, got really mad at me for asking. My guess is because she couldn't think of an answer she lashed out instead of having to appear confused. Boss told me to stop doing that, but I didn't because it was effective even if one lady got mad.

I've been interested in just what sort of a return Rodgers would get, or at least what some slack-jawed journalists think, and have only come across two ideas: Seattle: Rodgers and a 4th rounder GB: 2023 First Round Draft Pick (5th overall) 2023 Second Round Draft Pick (52nd overall) 2023 Third Round Draft Pick (83rd overall) 2023 Fourth Round Draft Pick (122nd overall) Jets: Rodgers GB: Jets' 1st (13th) and 2nd (44th)

If there were an agreement in place to trade Rodgers to the Jets after June 1, could the Jets just draft at our command and then trade those players to us, or is there something against the rules about that? I otherwise read about trading Rodgers before then so that we can get draft picks now, but for the cap hit it would take to trade Rodgers before that date, I don't see how that could really be done without gutting much of the team. At least unless Rodgers' trade value is so much higher if the other team doesn't have much money to pay.

Hello and goodbye greetings get to be so automatic. A friend told me he was on the phone with his boss once and as he hung up said "k, love you" out of habit. The boss called him back laughing and said he's done the same thing before, too.

I asked my anesthesiologist cousin, and yes I had to look up the spelling on that, for his expert opinion on this. He said that it's important especially for elective things like viagra/cialis. He said when patients know there is a new option for treating a condition they have, whether it be ED or psoriasis or something, they may be prompted to go see a doctor versus just dealing with it. He said patients will often ask for the brand name (where of course big pharma makes the big bucks) verses generic or alternative treatment options. And many doctors will accommodate those requests if there are no contraindications.

I was one who wanted Rodgers traded last year but I respect that it wasn't necessarily a "wrong" decision to want him to stay, either. Just a difference in how we'd run things as armchair GMs. Though certainly if he were a Denver Bronco they would have been better than the 5th pick in the draft. I think Love can be a decent QB in the League, plus if Rodgers stays we're probably talking about both QBs gone in a couple years and than like every other team spending a good half-decade desperately trying to find your next franchise QB. Or worse, finally finding a middling one like Kyler Murray and get stuck paying him like he's elite. At least with Love you get to skip some of that process.

That one may have been me. My accountant was pretty impressed at my account when she saw the total value of the transactions until she saw it all balanced out to very little. It's been just the opposite last year as I haven't touched anything since about February.
-
The guess is that Portis will miss about a month of time. So long as he'd be back and ready before the playoffs there's no need to make major moves in order to replace him.

Cripes. Just logged into my Coinbase account and all my money had been transferred out and it wasn't me who'd done it. Thought I'd been hacked. But I guess Coinbase is scrapping its Coinbase Pro to something else and apparently that's where my money went.
-
I'm really hoping Rodgers gets traded to the Jets and then the year after replaces Cousins in Minnesota. That'd be hilarious.
-
Ugh, that just makes me want everyone else fired, too. Are they valuing continuity above performance? Defense only got better once he was forced to change everything, so his defensive genius is in being able to do what he's told and let the head coach make the adjustments for him? Lot of good folks out there qualified to be the DC. What does Joe Barry have that they don't? Incriminating photos?
-
But wouldn't Las Vegas have an easier time selling season boxes to all the casinos who want to keep their whales happy? That matters more than a couple hundred seats in the nosebleeds.
-
Yep, Lance starts and the first time he throws an interception their fans scream for Purdy.

I found The Chosen on Amazon and binged it. I hear it's been popular enough they're going to show the season finale in theaters along with streaming.

The Drunk Thread was up to 3 1/3, right? Well I'm not close to drunk, but either way here's my favorite cocktail: 2 gin 1 simple syrup 1/2 lime juice 1/2 Campari Shake and strain.

Trade clause or no, I still figure Rodgers would have to approve a trade beforehand. And in that case why go to a middling team when he could be on a middling one in GB? But the Jets would easily be the most Superbowl-capable of the bunch and I could see that convincing him. Elijah Moore and a 2nd wouldn't be a haul, but would be reasonable for a guy who may only play one more year. Then maybe a conditional 2nd and 4th if he plays the year after. Plus with their 1st the Jets would be in line to take the Richardson guy from Florida who will need a year or two of bench work before he's ready, anyway.

Bob Loukas is a great crypto youtuber. Bit long of a video but he talks about long-term investing using the four-year cycle. He got in again a couple weeks ago so of course hit the recent bump. Though I do think it's a mistake to ignore other other factors like the stock market and unemployment, etc. in any crypto evaluation, because the crypto market very much doesn't act independently of the regular market. Crypto is a speculative asset, and so the mass of people will only invest when they've got some money to actually spend.

Rodgers to Seattle is an interesting thought, especially since what Seattle would be paying Rodgers wouldn't be a whole lot more than what they'll likely have to pay Geno. Though Rodgers being a bridge QB I'd see Seattle demanding they keep the #5 so they can draft Rodgers' successor. Seattle's late 1st and a 3rd seems more fitting, or it's a player from Seattle as the main return. Noah Fant and a 2nd would be fine with me.

I guess you can search non-stop flights, too. Skyscanner and Kayak have that "go anywhere" feature. https://www.skyscanner.com/transport/flights-from/mke/?adults=1&adultsv2=1&cabinclass=economy&children=0&childrenv2=&inboundaltsenabled=false&infants=0&iym=2307&originentityid=27544948&outboundaltsenabled=false&oym=2307&preferdirects=false&ref=home&rtn=1 https://www.kayak.com/flights?lang=en&skipapp=true&gclid=CjwKCAiAwomeBhBWEiwAM43YIMgAj6GB73Fe4EqjGw9lO2Qhe0rJI1xXVVqkbG_MuL3f1QzGYwnfeRoCwLgQAvD_BwE&aid=137201325827

There's a website somewhere that you can put in the days you're looking to go +/- a few and it'll list the cheapest prices around the world. If you were looking to get further afield than Memphis and didn't mind a few connections, you should be able to get pretty far away for a similar price. The Philippines has some of the nicest beaches in the world and would be quiet. A pub crawl of Australian Outback bars? Draining Scotland of its whiskey one sip at a time? Namibia is like one giant beach and some of the best photography in the world. Hike the John Muir Trail and enjoy quiet camping while also getting a year's worth of exercise at once?
