    Still my favorite Brewer, still absolutely jacked, and still married to a member of En Vogue. If I found out the guy is actually a jerk it would be pretty crushing.

    Rumor is that the team is shopping Grayson because he's bad at defense.

    If you're interested in a table game, I recommend Crokinole. It's kinda Canadian carroms and fits in that "what the heck?" category. Two or four players, games go quickly, simple rules and it's a lot of fun.

    For movie fans there's a few places out there which do steel movie posters, which is something I'm thinking of for the brother-in-law. Also for movies/books/plays, Polish poster art is incredible. I can't think of anything for the sister. She doesn't have much kitchen space. She's always hurting something so maybe there's something with that.

    I think I have an ulcer. I've hit the wall at work. It's all stress.

    Thanks, really appreciate that. Yeah, maybe two years waiting for everything to fall in place. Will probably get my permit for the town square on Monday, so likely then I'll see a big pickup in business. Now to figure out how to navigate real work, vending, golfing and working out. My fault for praying and asking God to teach me discipline, you end up with the opportunity to learn it.

    Hard to conduct interviews with several people and only from within your own organization when you've got to name an interim same-day. Just as odd to be interviewing and naming your assistant linebackers coach your interim. Or maybe the Colts just want to best ensure they keep losing and hire a fan-favorite to take the position, especially since the rest of their season doesn't matter.

    MLF's past history also has him running the ball at least 60% of the time, so another good RB made sense. I'm not convinced yet it's a sure thing that Rodgers comes back. Maybe he only wanted this season, or maybe he'll think next year the Packers will be rebuilding or again not good and be more open to going elsewhere. Or will he be as motivated to stay if Cobb and Bakhtiari both leave?

    You have to wonder when Giannis' career is done, that the biggest factor in ranking him on the top-whatever-all-time list is going to be how many Championships he's won.
  10. GAME05
    Well, they're also going to end up winning a game they should lose just so everyone gets a tiny glimmer of hope before it's dashed the following week.

    Packers' upcoming winnable games are Tennessee, @Bears, Rams, Lions. The Falcons picked 8th last year with a 7-10 record. Looking at a mock draft there's a big-bodied WR projected right around there, but the next-best WR fell to the low-20s.

    Is MLF a bad coach or is it more his DC and OC making him look bad? But then the captain usually goes down with the ship. >Matt Lafleur is a really, really bad HC who has been hidden the last few years by the greatness of the Rodgers/Adams connection and is basically lost now. I feel like it's been since Holmgren since we've had a talented HC. How many Super Bowls have we not seen because of it?

    But who'd really want Allen and Nwora? They're really our only expendable players but it's hard to figure they'd draw terribly much interest from any developing team trading off it's assets. And if the Buck's one tradable first-rounder would be protected, it's too far out to be of any value. Seems the Bucks are pretty well stuck with hoping a good buyout player falls to them, but that they won't be able to do much in the trade market. I was particularly interested in the OKC game because I was curious about how that team was looking, but yikes. The injured Chet Holmgren is all they've really got. Though I suspect their GM is secretly happy Holmgren is hurt to make that team even worse this year. Even if they miss out on Webanyama, Scoot Henderson is also a heck of a prospect who'd be an easy #1 pick any other year.

    Thought I'd start this and see if there were an interest in throwing around gift ideas. My family says I'm a great gift-giver, though I'm having a harder time thinking of ideas this year. Getting the brother a pair of Guardian clubs. They're odd, and I like odd gifts, but he's got shoulder problems and they're great for that. The father I was thinking of Skillshare, but that seems to be more tech-related. For the nieces I was thinking about those inflatable sumo balls so they can run into each other, though reviews seem to say they pop easily. Still wondering about the sister-in-law and the regular sister. edit: Oh. I see the site autocorrects. No such thing as "Guardian Clubs". The name relates to the country of India even though they were first used in Persia. But the clubs' use migrated to India, where the British gave them that name. Their shape has changed a little over the years, largely to make them easier to pack because British folks liked to take them home to England. They're excellent for low-impact forearm and shoulder and wrist strength, making Persians some of the best wrestlers in the world for centuries.

    For the Brewers it's not just getting Burnes' value in prospects, but also a value in prospects to account for what would be a heck of a 1-2-3 punch in the playoffs.

    I don't know if the Brewers have even figured out whether they're a "soft rebuilds are necessary with our budget limitations" team or if they're a "try and be competitive ever year" team. There's no agreement on this site, either, and to me that seems like the biggest factor on whether folks say trade or keep. I'm in the "soft rebuild" camp and I think we'd have every ability to push for the playoffs next year even with Burnes gone. Trade from your strength, especially considering there's no need for a mid-budget team to have one or two guys in the bullpen who should be getting starts. Further, our OF prospects are speed guys, and speed is kinda negated if you're a low-ave/HR offense, so trading Burnes now is a great opportunity to get a better contact hitter or two in to better take advantage of that.

    Giannis has talked a good bit about having been with Khris for so long it does make me wonder if Bucks' brass has an eye toward keeping the two of them together for as long as possible and giving Khris that Jim Gantner kinda legacy. But it does feel like Khris leaving is the natural order of things. He's won it here and a new team will mean opportunities to score even more points and get out of that very big Giannis shadow to end his career. I suddenly had a vision of replacing Khris with Kyrie next season and I didn't totally hate the thought.

    Any new coach has to force Simmons to shoot, like making him take 10 shots per game or he's not starting the next. He was taking 12.2 shots per game his second year and the Nets were letting him get away with 5.7. Defenses are starting to learn how to anticipate and pick off his passes because he's becoming so predictable with his fear of shooting. There just comes a point where no matter how good you are at passing, you become more of a liability if teams can play so far off you.

    So basically he cussed out a coach?

    If you go with a computer-connected one you'll need a pretty good PC to run it. But the big plus with something like the Oculus is that if cost isn't a big problem you can keep up with all the technological advancements. And there's more games for it, too. I have the Playstation VR, which every now and again will go on sale at GameStop. And probably getting cheaper with their VR2 pre-orders just starting to be offered. Playstation's VR1 can be run on a PS4 but the VR2 will need a PS5. If you have no console at home already, the Oculus may be your best bet. Plus the Playstation VR, at least until v.2 releases, doesn't have joysticks, and so moving around in a Playstation VR game is always pretty awkward. And I'll definitely say that putting a VR on an older relative who's never used one before, and then having them do a roller coaster or a scary game.....well that's just such a blast to watch as they scream or try to keep their balance. Last time I did it with my family there was a lot of cry-laughing.

    Days 1 and 2 in the books! Made $7 the first day and $28 the second. But more than anything, this is really just to get accustomed to doing it so that when next Spring hits and there's a lot of customers I'll be prepared. And I have a better location but I don't have the permit for it yet. Have a feeling I'm going to grow to hate hot dogs, since I can't re-sell the cooked ones the next day. Buns got a little soggy in the steamer, but I shouldn't normally have them in there all three hours. I'll have to experiment with frozen buns to eliminate waste, too. I like the grill attachment to the cart already because it smokes a lot and puts out a lot of smells. Preview attachment IMG_20221101_133337124_HDR.jpg [Image] 6.2 MB.URL

    Ugh, had my first row with a co-worker who would be my barely-subordinate if I get the job. Bit of a power thing and an argument which was pretty well going to end up happening one day or another. But I'm not the controlling type who needs to learn to let things go, rather more easy-going and prefer control to happen at the lowest levels possible, so I'm aware that the downside to that is I can get pushed around, so it's probably good this happened.

    With basically no first-rounders to give up, any trade now would really crush their ability to do anything later, worst-case if there came to be an injury with a starter. Why trade away what little flexibility we have now when we don't even know if there's a need for it yet?
