SEK - if it turns out she is in daisy dukes and a tight top with her titties hanging out for the rest of the movie, will you come back and acknowledge YOU were wrong?

Not SEK and not trying to get into this debate, but there aint a lot to hang out even if they did that. This should be a Megan Fox type. Turner doesnt have any "ta-dow" to her.

He would have to become more of a team player and develop a more varied offensive game very quickly, when he never showed that was something he was interested in.

Have to weigh in on this, because I strongly disagree with it. Doug Collins moved him to PG for 20+ games in 89 and he averaged 30p/10a/9reb during that stretch. Phil comes in and installs the triangle, which rendered a great deal of Jordan's isolation/ball dominant strengths moot, so what did he do? He turned himself into one of the best back to the basket scorers in the league to adapt.

Jordan was constantly enhancing his game. He would need to adapt more in today's world, but history shows that he would do so.

If you want a pellet smoker the camp chef woodwind pro is amazing. Hard to clean, though.

This is what I have and I recommend it also. The pull out drawer that lets you have actual smoke while having the ease of the pellets is great. I second your point about cleaning though.

Dominique Wilkins is a super nice dude. We were both pretty ticked off waiting on valet service, but he never tried to pull rank or show anyone up and talked to me like we were old buddies for a solid 15 minutes.

Woody would have likely moved on the second he knew that a huge part of his job was managing an open transfer portal, the ego's of boosters that essentially bought his starting QB during recruiting, the fact that every team in the Big 10 was going to get big money from a TV contract, and thus, be in play for every player he was thinking of recruiting, etc. Hell, having to be interviewed by Holly Rowe walking off the field would have been a shock. He, like us, would have longed for the days of Jill Arrington.

Unless....someone offered him a lot of money to put up with all that crap. Well, the money flowed, so job security was the next domino to fall.

I hate most of the evolution (I think NIL is fine or the portal is fine, but not both in conjunction) today, but lets not act like they had the problems or the resources back then, because if they did, the second Michigan State hires that day's Mel Tucker....boom goes the dynamite. Taking us back to that timeframe means we are all huddled around a radio 70% of the time and reading box scores in the morning. I prefer this era for the access it gives us, even if it costs folks a lot of money to get rid of a coach. However....with the portal and NIL together, a lot of that will end soon. This isnt becoming the NFL. The NFL has very structured contracts tying a player to a team.

For business travelers, checked bags are the bane of our existence. Unless it significantly reduced boarding time, no chance in hell I would be in favor of standing at baggage claim for 20+ minutes waiting. I have damn near needed a shoe horn and Crisco to get clothes packed in a carry on vs moving to the bigger suitcase just to avoid that crap.

That certainly wont apply to all, but for the ones in the airport multiple times a month for only a night or three of travel, to hell with checking a bag that would only move my wait from sitting in my seat while the plane boards to staring at the conveyor belt trying to determine if a bag tag is mine when I could be in an uber already.

Ha, I should have stated, buddies from different cities. If its all local folks, sure.

I bought my lifetime subscription around 2007 as well. The few times I have switched trucks since then have been fun when the rep tries to tell me that they dont honor it any longer. After an escalation or two, I'm back in business.

I seem to recall this guy, had a flat top and a thick NYC accent. Might have played ball at St. Johns. He's not Steph but Chris Mullin could flat out shoot it.

Legends of the Fall - did the whore sleep with all the brothers?

She sure did, but I think she gets a pass on the cheating thing. Bro one died, bro two (Pitt) left for years and told her to move on, then Bro three stepped in. Why she didnt just move back home as opposed to hanging out with Anthony Hopkins in the middle of nowhere was curious.

If we're talking about movies that were competently made and acted and filmed and everything was put together like it was a real movie but the result was a fricking abomination, then it's The Last Jedi and I will fight you if you disagree.

+1. The Rise of Skywalker was bad, but it is freaking Casablanca compared to The Last Jedi.
