He used to come here a lot too. As @DC Tom Cat's out of the bag now I guess.

I still hate Bryce Brown for fumbling the game away against the Chiefs in like 2014 or something.

Except they aren’t “being part of our society.” Do you really think Chinese nationals are coming away from universities with American values? And the unis love them because they pay full sticker. They aren’t getting in purely on merit.

Like I said, we won’t see a ***** penny. Meanwhile we’re gonna make it easier for Chinese to get student visas. Which keeps American kids out of our best schools. Nobody ***** talk to me about the Bai Dan administration wanting to “keep up” with China.

Well when you charge $69 per spot you can afford to hire a couple of bouncers.

What is causing Fields to drop down draft charts and why is it racism? https://web.archive.org/web/20210426170952if_/https://theundefeated.com/features/justin-fields-and-the-double-standard-of-black-quarterback-prospects-nfl-draft/

Betteridge's law of headlines: any headline that ends with a question mark can be answered by the word "no."

Based on the comments about Jimmy G I'm convinced they're going with Jones too. Drafting Lance guarantees Jimmy sticks around and Fields, though he has more experience at a higher level, isn't exactly a day one guy either.

My guess is they're loving life sitting at 6 with three QBs guaranteed coming off the board and Pitts, Chase, Smith, Waddle all possibly in play. Maybe they go Sewell but that would be a home run too.

I was going to let it go until I realized beerboy poasted in your thread smdh

So, as many of you know, @Beerball is looking to start a thread. Because of his various "challenges" he needs help finding original content.

He doesn't. But in theory, if Fields lasted to pick 8, they could give Carolina both of their firsts and a couple other picks. This assumes that Carolina doesn't have a competing offer and doesn't mind moving down that far, both of which seem unlikely.

Based on the rest of his twitter activity and the reference in the same post to a six pack of beer I assume he was joking. He can't even really make plans until the county comes out with info on tailgating.

It really hangs on the evaluation of Fields. The implied suggestion upthread was that the Ravens could run a similar offense with him, if they are utterly convinced that Fields is a better passer and a good enough athlete they would undoubtedly change their offense.

100% of Americans have to worry about this issue, whether they own property or not. That you're too short-sighted to recognize why isn't the OP's problem.

This general idea has been floating around for a few years and the obvious flaw is that very few QB prospects have been sure things, historically speaking. Opinions on whether Lamar is a "franchise QB" aside - if the Ravens see him as one then they will pay him because a QB in the hand is worth five in the draft, and realistically you can only get one. As it stands Lamar is a better athlete than Fields and hasn't made it past the divisional round - why would the Ravens think Fields could get them more?

Like many others I expected to hear "Rosen" after "Josh" from Goodell that night. I don't think I had any real reaction other than "well we'll see." A week later I was foaming at the mouth telling all my friends how awesome Josh Allen was gonna be because I watched some highlight videos to talk myself into it 🤣I went so hard my buddies bought me an Allen jersey as a joke. Now who's laughing, #######s?!

Don't you just love NY lol. But yeah if you're savvy and know the relative value of the car you're trading in OR it's a rare enough combination that a dealer doesn't mind just giving you a "blow them away" trade in value then you'll be ok. If you aren't a car guy and drive around a base Corolla you're better off googling KBB, selling it to a HS kid for his busboy tips and using that as a down payment.

You've conveniently forgotten that it is the highest of sins to build something to leave to your issue. Estate taxes are a completely unashamed continuation of the attempt to eliminate the middle class entirely. They sense the value the middle class is placing on land and want to price them out of it in order to create a more subservient class. Proponents of such measures are without exception vile people with sour countenances who cannot incline bench.

This is true, it depends somewhat on what you’re trading in. Not everyone gets hosed.

Well, kind of. You got a discount on a new car that was $1800 more than you paid. The dealership I bought my CPO impala from three years ago just offered me $12k on trade but that’s a bit different from cash in hand.

New car dealers are moving more and more towards the "store" model. There are some holdouts still but many will not negotiate the sticker on the car without you sticking a competing offer in their face. Trading in sucks for the reasons already noted upthread. If you're buying a new car your best bet is to just find out exactly (down to the color, trim, extras) what you want and then look for that car specifically. Then find the best deal and see if other dealers will beat it. Rinse and repeat until you get a bunch of "no" then pull the trigger. The brokers essentially do this for you but they have the connections and pull to fast-track the process. There's more wiggle room with used cars because, also as noted upthread, they absolutely murder people on the trade-ins. I got my CPO Impala, that was advertised at $17k, out the door for $14.5k because it had been sitting on the lot for nearly a month and I was willing to drive 300 miles for a better deal if necessary.

We won’t see a ***** penny of those “infrastructure” dollars. Funding for “infrastructure” without specifics is a very transparent attempt to pay off political debts. And “staying in the race” while still tossing around H1Bs and other such favors as if they’re chocolate coins at a bar mitzvah is impossible.
