re: Derek Carr retires

I remember talking to people close to him several years ago that said he would never play long, he had other goals in life. 11 seasons is longer than most though.

That's the easy part that has already been implemented. The hard part now is finding a replacement for the writings of essays/papers.

We "cheated" on engineering homework by meeting up with peers before the due date and banging it out together. Of course that really isn't cheating and is kind of expected and encouraged.
Wrote formulas on my thighs a couple of times and wore shorts. Good times.

Looks like an NHL team should look, consistent with the branding. Maybe one day, Yeti.
re: Notre Dame & Clemson have struck a 12-year annual football scheduling deal

ACC implosion imminent.
Following up, this is part of the temporary ACC fix ESPN lobbied for. But let's be realistic, the conference won't last long with the top tier (Clemson, FSU, and Miami) getting the special treatment. Read the rest of Ross's report, the same deal is coming but with FSU and Miami. Playing Notre Dame yearly will increase Clemson's tv numbers that they will be inevitably waving around here in 4-5 years saying "see! We're a top 10 brand in tv numbers! Put us in the power conference!"

re: Do you shower in the morning before work? If not why are you weird and stink all day?
Posted by Ssubba on 5/6/25 at 8:31 am
Do you guys who don't shower in the morning not shave daily? I need a fresh daily shave, and not showering with a shave just feels weird.
Also in construction management that puts me in the field most days, I'm also showering either when I get home or at night.

Draft will be really cool on the lawn. NFL keeps winning on the rotating draft.

Quick head math, something like $150/sf if you subtract the lot price. Pretty standard. For comparison, I've built as my own GC for $80-$100.

Okay, finally installed after buying one thanks to this thread. Coincidentally, installed it the night before my wife's colonoscopy prep :lol: It's amazing.
This will definitely lead to more sex. The feminine wash is a game changer for women.

re: Is it possible the Browns signed Sanders just to sell Jerseys?
Posted by Ssubba on 4/29/25 at 9:40 am
First of all, Sanders isn't moving jerseys. Second, the whole moving jerseys for profit thing that gets repeated on message boards is pretty dumb. A single players jersey selling in a shop is a miniscule drop in the bucket compared to the television deals teams have with the NFL.
Which is the point of drafting him with a 5th round pick. If he's the best QB in camp he will start. If not, you wasted the total of...... one 5th round pick. You guys are killing yourselves with mental gymnastics involving Sanders.

His victory lap is going to be incredible if Sanders is any good.
re: Will Shadeur make the Browns roster out of training camp?
Posted by Ssubba on 4/28/25 at 9:20 am
He's better than his draft position. If he fixes the alleged problems that got him into this situation he'll be on the roster.
re: I fully expect Deion to go scorched earth

I could see this being an avalanche that leads to him resigning from Colorado. Hopefully I'm being dramatic, for both of their careers.
re: Am I the only one that couldn't care less about the NFL draft?

I'm always excited and then tune out by the 4th pick once I realized I forgot how boring it is.

Stayed in Alabama and partnered with my father and started a company couple years out of college. Wouldn't have been able to do that had I moved away. Working for myself has been incredibly rewarding, so trade offs. Done some great domestic and international travel with the wife though.

What a load of bullshite this was dude is still on ESPN every day. What happened? Did he call ESPN’s bluff like that loser Ryan Clark did too?
It was just reported he turned down an offer to replace Gary Danielson, so typical contract negotiation shenanigans. He's probably inking a new deal now.
re: New Oscars Rule: If You Don’t See All The Nominated Films, You Can’t Vote
Posted by Ssubba on 4/22/25 at 7:28 am
Why wouldn't you want to watch all of the films of you're an Oscar voter? The only situation I see is if these are life long voters and eventually lose interest in films but don't want to give up the "prestige" of being a voter. In which case, term limit.

Saban himself said hitching his wagon to this "weasel" is one of the best decisions he ever made. No talent hacks don't accidentally become billionaires.
