  1. Also makes sense that Gutenkunst wouldn't be out saying "Oh yeah we're out there exploring trades right now." At least suggest that the team is doing everything it can to keep him as a better PR move if Rodgers does decide to leave--it's not our fault so please keep buying luxury suites! I presume Gutenkunst has had the trade offers from approved teams 99% in place for a while now.
  2. I am the cops so I'm finishing my report now. My front yard is within my jurisdiction and he ran out of it, but at least in my state if a crime happens in your jurisdiction you're justified to pursue out of it. He ran into the woods not 50 yards past the vehicle but ain't no way I'm going into the woods by myself to search for someone. Had a boss nearly get killed doing that once. As first on scene I was more interested in making sure there wasn't anyone hurt inside the vehicle and that it wasn't leaking gas and about to catch on fire.
  3. It's a shame that if you don't get hurt it's not terribly difficult to get away with drunk driving. Dude crashed in my front yard around midnight last night and then he took off running. Beer and whiskey in the vehicle and on a suspended license. He ran into the woods nearby, called a buddy to pick him up and that was that. I even know the vehicle that picked him up, but of course knowing something and proving it in court are two very different things. Today he can just report the vehicle stolen and that's that.
  4. I'm apprehensive about it, but of course everyone fears change. We're a smallish board where everyone tends to know each other and to some degree I think it makes people more open to saying somewhat more personal stuff here (or at least I am), but a lot more users here diluting that would make it harder. BF.net is a wonderful board even if you don't care about baseball. But sure, we used to have a front page with really good articles and it's understandable that it didn't continue, so adding something like that back even if it had ads everywhere is great.
  5. Back went out again but since we're so short-staffed I'm at work now. Good reminder that my break from lifting needs to end. Got a hex bar to do light-weight deadlifts and amazingly my back doesn't protest against that. Hex bar helps center the weight another 4" or so more than a straight bar would. Looks like I'll be interim boss in a couple months for who knows how long, a job I don't know how to do. It'll also mean permanent night shift all summer with no support.
  6. If Rodgers were back, Adams would have lots of reasons to not hold out. Rodgers would give him a season-long sendoff by throwing every single pass his way.
  7. When it comes to sports journalism it's better to be the first person to report fake news than the second person to report true news.
  8. Nice thing about suit jackets is you can take them off and suddenly you're more casual if needs be. Just hang it over the chair.
  9. My work has now stated that no clothing choice can be held against a candidate. You could go in your underwear and still get the job, no joke.
  10. Hopefully everyone is ok today. I'd moved mostly into a commodities index fund a month or so ago and it's basically holding even today. Probably a lot of other plays to be made with Taiwan unfortunately-probably upcoming, though doubtful any that I'll strongly pursue.
  11. I just watched a couple episodes of Hoarders and now have an unstoppable urge to clean everything in my house.
  12. I've definitely had a lot of 1/1/2021 birthdays. I'm very advanced for my age.
  13. They probably need a WR in the 1st whether Adams is back or not. Heck even if they got Judy back in the trade they probably need a WR in the 1st.
  14. If I had to put money on it he stays in GB. I think he sees the legacy value of staying with the same team as well as the not-so-fairytale ending to a career Favre had. No doubt GB, after saying they want to be more transparent with Rodgers, has laid it on the line as far as who would likely be gone if they were to bring him and Adams back, although I'm sure you could still call that a SB-caliber team. Maybe Green Bay has added a "just not to an NFC team" to their agreement to trade Rodgers if he so wishes. And I have a hard time believing that Rodgers would have any qualms about playing in the AFC due to their level of competition. I'd imagine an athlete at his level would only look at that as being fun competition or simply that he's better than them and it would be no problem. I think I've reached a point where I don't much care either way. It would be fun to have another couple of seasons of being the best regular-season team in the NFC. But the video gamer in me also knows it's fun to blow everything up and see what happens. And if the Packers have bigger eyes toward another 15 years of dominance more than two more seasons of going for it, than Rodgers leaving would at least give the best chance of doing that considering we'd have a heck of a roster with just the one big question mark. The Green Bay administration isn't totally powerless in this, either. If they genuinely wanted to trade Rodgers (because of course they'll *say* they want Rodgers back) they could make that happen, too.
  15. Is there any kind of "Not until June" date which needs to pass before Rodgers would be traded? If so and he's traded with picks involved, I guess that would mean Green Bay would have to just tell whatever team who to draft in April before they get traded over? Of course if he's extended that could be done any time, but if he's going to be traded are there any dates we should have in mind?
  16. Thanks for the tip and I'll definitely keep that in mind. For this year just wanting to keep things simple and then do more as I get used to vending and based on what customers are requesting. There's the potential for vending at fishing tournaments which would be a $2000 day as well as maybe leasing the cart out to someone else. I make some flat fee but also avoid the burdens of having an employee.
  17. They're not called "brats" down here. It's just "sausage" or a "sausage dog". And everyone here likes the BrightLeaf hot dogs, which are regular hot dogs died red which I think is off-putting. I'll likely offer a brat and maybe also a BrightLeaf (those would require me picking up my food from two different places, though). Apparently mayonnaise on a hot dog isn't uncommon.
  18. My meeting with the prospective commissary (commercial kitchen) went well and it looks like I'll be able to use them this coming Spring to vend my hot dogs. Storing food at home is illegal, so I just need a place to keep food and wash dishes. And the place next door I accidentally walked into first is owned by the guy who runs that town's hot dog cart, so he gave me the low-down on all the other places to vend around here. He said he makes $250-300 per day which is roughly what I was figuring and he's in a not-great location.
  19. I have Sirius. Having it means I can listen to Brewer games at work (I'm not in WI to get local radio) or when I'm vending, as well as not use up phone data. Although they waste a lot of available channels on stuff nobody would listen to and could use a better variety of music.
  20. I'd wanted to keep DDV because we tend to need guys who can rebound, but he didn't sign an extension but since Allen did, DDV was probably good as gone considering their budget constraints. And his ceiling is probably as high as he's playing right now. He'll probably show much better in Sacramento based on the type of guys around him, but on his own he's the sort of player Championship teams unfortunately have to let go of here and there. Lest we forget Allen also kicked a guy in the manhood in college. But still better the dirty player than the clubhouse cancer (assuming he isn't that, anyway).
  21. Can't believe they got him. Really figured he'd be in line for HC somewhere or at least Coordinator considering the amazing job he did keeping that team together through all their drama and problems. Either he's making bank or they promised he'd lead a complete rebuild of the way they do special teams. Otherwise it's hard to figure this would be a step up. This latest Packers ST firing is the latest of many, so if everything else is status quo it's hard to figure anyone succeeding in that position.
  22. It was Ron Wolfe who said the mark of a good draft class is getting three starters.
  23. Westbrook is whatever you'd call the opposite of a 'complimentary player'. Just doesn't fit with that team at all. Westbrook is ball-dominant but so is LeBron, but Westbrook doesn't add any off-ball value. They had some ok complimentary players last year but they walked and what they've got now is pretty rough. They don't play defense at all. And Anthony Davis is the best 4 in the game (not sure what you'd call Giannis) but he's playing the 5 because Dwight Howard is their only other option there and Davis' skills get kinda muted without as much space to work. But the Lakers are also full of older veterans who are typically used to going half-speed in the regular season.
  24. I'll have to ask my friend again for the specifics of the story. I thought Chevy was the character that made Community good. His character provided some negativity and pessimism, and above all grounded the other characters and restrained some of their lunacy. Post-Chevy the characters just went off the rail.
  25. For the past couple decades he's been running around Hollywood trying to get work because nobody will go near him. When he joined Community I figured he'd work hard to change, being that it was clearly his last chance at redemption. But nope. I'm bungling this story, but I guess many years ago Chevy was in a movie with a first-time director. Chevy was so difficult to work with that he made the director quit. It being Hollywood you'd normally figure quitting your first movie would be a career-ending move. But as the director tells it, he'd tell producers about why he quit his first job and they would say "No, if it was Chevy then that makes sense."
