Taking your Packer homer hats off, how do you think this team will do in 2023? Do we think Love can be better than average for his career? I was impressed with the way he looked last year. He looked like he had figured things out. That said, I'm still worried about what I've seen in the past, a qb that would just throw the ball up when he was under pressure.

I love the Open Championship! Anyone else a big fan? I picked Rory in my one and done league..... fingers crossed.
-
Well Elly De La Cruz sure looks electric so far. I might have to tune in to some of their games just to watch him.

Louis Ely - Son of two teachers, I think we count! That's amazing that there are so many teachers on here. Thanks for what you all do! Crazy this thread just popped up because I was crunching numbers on our retirement accounts just this weekend to see how we are doing. We are a little ahead of where we should be using some basic rule of thumb calculations, so that was nice to see. I think what we are struggling with is what do we want in retirement. That is obviously a big part of understanding where you need to be at certain ages. Also when do we want to retire. I feel like that all could change depending on what our kids end up doing and where they end up. As others have said, just put that money away and start right away. It's so important. Madbad2000 - That's a great way of looking at things. Don't keep chasing more as your career progresses. We've started to pull back on things like cars. I'm going to try and follow that mindset!

I too have been questioning this a bit. I do think there will be a draw to go watch your team when they play in Vegas. I would love to do that. But my question is, will it be an annual thing for people or just something people will want to do once. We shall see. I hope it works because I think it will be cool. I'm sure the stadium will be bonkers and cater to the people looking for a higher end experience.

That West Coast swing went way better that I could have hoped for. What a blast. Keep it rolling!
-
Thanks for the recap! I like all the added media in here. -
Boy this team has been fun to watch so far! I love having the young kids up and making an impact. Hope they can keep up the great work. Go Crew!
-
Cool, just wanted to clarify. I'd add to that, most people should keep a good mix of equity stocks (with fixed income) in retirement because hopefully most people will have 20-30 years of life left and will want their money to continue to work for them.
-
Are you saying financial planners know when the market will peak and then sell off all your equity investments when you retire?
-
Can we run this back with a worst of list for each position? It would actually be very entertaining. Maybe you could have a minimum games played to qualify.

No Jeff Suppan? On a serious note, I thought Yo would be in the top 5 but I can see why he didn't make the cut. I too would have Sheets #2. I loved that guy and most importantly he was hilarious. Not sure how to make a stat for that but it should be factored in. Maybe there should be a list for top 5 fan favorites.

You bet. Good luck and let us know how it turns out!

I've been a recruiter for 11 years now so I have a lot of experience with negotiating. I think it get's harder to counter after your initial counter, but it can be done. Let me ask you this, if they come back low are you ok with walking away? I think the strongest move you can make is respectfully saying something like "I want the job and I think I'd be a great fit with your company and team. If you can meet me at $____ I'd accept today and give my notice. If you can't go any higher, I understand. Financially it doesn't make sense for me at this amount, so I unfortunately would have to decline." Of course they still may walk away, but if it's close they may come back with the offer you want. I think you need to have the lowest number in your head that you're ok with. Make sure it's a number that won't leave you resentful down the road because you don't want to be in that type of position. In my opinion companies get to the point of "forget this guy" when a candidate is waffling or passively asking for more multiple times (for money or vacation, etc). I think if you're strong they will respect it and hopefully come up to what you are asking for. Again, please know that with this type of move you may lose the job. Having a job you know you'd love is worth a lot. So again, figure out what your low dollar amount is that still leaves you happy with the decision. If they can't meet that, I'd use a counter like I mentioned.

The email they sent to subscribers specifically said they're preserving the $65 price. Plus they're honoring the $15 discount for everyone on their next bill even though the channels were only gone for a day and a half. No price increase, riggggggght. Not today, but wait a month or two. I don't want to bring bad vibes to this thread, but I'm under the assumption that once streaming services become the go to for a majority of people, they will become the cable companies. Rates will continue to go up and I'm assuming customer service will start to go down. My guess is it will be just like DTV. Started out doing everything possible for its customers until they were big enough that they didn't have to anymore. The only hope I have is that because there aren't installs and equipment needed for their services, along with no contracts, they may keep prices somewhat lower than cable/dish, and customer service will still be key. Consolidation of services will be the biggest issue for customers as time goes on. That gives them too much power and the ability to do whatever they please. For the record, I love YTTV and their customer service has been amazing. I hope they continue to see how much that is appreciated.

Is this price hike from Disney to try and screw over YouTube, so they have to charge more? Which then will send more people over to Hulu Live TV? It seems to me that YouTube is kind of screwed on this one because of what Disney has control over. I have a feeling I’ll need to switch to Hulu but I don’t want to if that was their plan all along!
-
Oh no. Seriously? Roku could do that? This would be a major bummer. I just bought two roku TVs! I’m not sure I got the email but I’ll have to go check. Any other information you have on it? I was curious why some apps like MLB weren’t on some smart TVs. Didn’t know there was negotiations going on for things like that.

Don't lose the power assuming you are playing with us again in softball. We need dingerz. Shows up to spring training in the best shape of his life, etc, etc. All this made me laugh! Best shape of his life, renewed love for the game. Going to be a great season!

Speaking of Milwaukee pizza near hwy 100, my grandma just sent a text the other day and said she's looking forward to me coming to visit (she lives right off 100). She said she will treat me and my family to Balistreri's Pizza! It's a tradition that we always get that when we visit. I think we may have discussed their pizza on the board already but this made me think of it. We always get it from the one on 68th. Now my mouth is watering!

Steakhouse sides are the best. Lobster Mac and cheese! I agree, I'm in the boat as many of you, I typically prefer my own steak to a restaurant. There are a few places though, with special cuts, dry aged, etc that exceed expectations. They are expensive, but worth the money in my opinion. The atmosphere, the sides, the desserts, those are all things that are hard to replicate.

[sarcasm]Yeah, just what WI needed... more alcohol options... [/sarcasm] Small town bars everywhere in WI just said “wait, we couldn’t do to go cups before?”
-
I checked out their site. Looks awesome. Do they ship their frozen pizzas by any chance?

I reached out in a chat to YoutubeTV yesterday to ask when they were going to allow the unlimited logins from your house. They didn’t have an answer but I was blown away by customer service. They said they appreciated me reaching out and they value my feedback (standard customer service type line) and they’d like to comp me 2 free weeks of their service. I was blown away. Such a different experience than DTV. Thought I’d share because I really like their service and little things like this can make such a huge difference. Now when they rule the TV market, I’m sure they will tell me to go pound sand, but for now it’s great.

That is expensive but such a game changer for so many people. I hope it works good enough for people to have legit internet.

Just finished the Queen's Gambit and I found it to be very entertaining. Who knew, a tv show about chess, could be so fun. There is talk of doing a second season, and as much as I'd love to see more episodes, it might be best to leave it as it was intended. It's a quick watch, as it's only one season, so I'd give it a try if you're looking for something.
