    I thought this was pretty interesting if you want a semi-technical explanation of what actually happened to Texas' power grid during the winter storm.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Yeah and if you're picking #2 and not planning to trade it what's the worst that could happen if who you're picking gets out? Someone gives the farm away to Jacksonville for the #1 pick and they take your guy and you have to settle for the consensus best qb in the draft as compensation? Hardly...

    Would you turn down "mid 8 figures" for 5 years? There's really no upside to finishing the books now. He's already making tons of money and as long as he never releases his ending, everyone blames their disappointment on HBO.

    Holy shit. That's a big gamble. I hope it's for Zach Wilson but they're saying the 9ers are happy with whichever of the top QBs is left at 3. Saleh would be nuts to stick with Darnold when they have #2 unless he could trade it for 3 firsts. I'm guessing if the Jets were looking to trade they...

    Yeah, you can't go wrong with that. Shanahan's RBs are a bit deceptive because a lot of it is scheme and he can make anyone with speed look good usually. Breida is nothing special but he is fast.

    That's why I haven't bothered to reseason mine. I didn't dislike it but I didn't really see any advantage vs. the many cast iron pans I have. I thought it would be nice to have a pan that's a bit lighter for tossing vegetables and whatnot but it's really still pretty heavy at least compared to...

    I did the flaxseed oil last time and it put a finish on my carbon steel pan like I've never seen before, like I could almost see myself in it. Unfortunately I left it on a hot burner not long after that and burned it off and I haven't bothered to redo it but it was very pretty for a while.

    If it's from the 90s there's no asbestos at least. I didn't know there was any that new. I took it out of my house last year but it was a huge mess.

    I'm glad he didn't wind up on the niners. I'm sure he's a pretty good backup QB to have, certainly better than Mullens and Beathard, but I wasn't looking forward to looking at the guy that beat us in the super bowl in a SF uniform. Honestly it wouldn't be as bad as seeing Richard Sherman as a...

    I have the wall mounted version. I love it. Pots and pans are easy to get and it frees up a lot of cabinet space. I was concerned because I couldn't hit studs with it where I wanted to mount it but I got some sheet rock anchors that are rated for 250 lbs each and even with 5 cast iron pans...

    If true that story is unambiguously sexual assault. No way to know if it's true of course, and it could be that a bunch of these women willingly jerked him off and then jumped on the bandwagon once he did it to someone who wasn't okay with it. From that story it sounds like a happy ending...

    I lost a little respect for Top Gear when I heard Elon Musk talking about the episode where they tested a Tesla.

    Yeah it's abundantly clear that being rich and famous doesn't keep you from being a creep sexually. If anything it might increase the chances. I think some of these dudes just start to assume that every woman they meet wants to fuck them and a lot do but then they run into one that doesn't and...

    Sounds like 100% he said, she said. I'm not sure asking someone to rub your dick during a massage actually constitutes assault but I'm not a lawyer. There can't be any evidence either way.

    The Niners need a replacement for Kendrick Bourne. There was talk about them bringing back Emmanual Sanders as like a mentor for Deebo and Aiyuk but Larry would be even better at that. With regard to Jimmy, I'm not calling him a top 10 QB even when healthy. I think he's on par with Cousins...

    That wasn't because Jimmy played badly, it was because the Vikings and Packers defenses were totally helpless against the running game. They had no reason to pass in those games because they were getting 8 yards per carry. You could definitely make the argument that it was the defense that blew...

    The power tool guy at my local hardware store (who sells all 3 big brands) claims that Makita are still built better. That they use metal gears in places that Milwaukee/DeWalt use plastic, bearings where they use bushings, etc. I can't verify that personally, but that's what he told me. The...

    Last year isn't in any way representative of how he plays when healthy. If he's not healthy though, it doesn't really matter how good he is when he is healthy. "Injury prone" is a pretty shitty label to put on people. A lot of it is just luck. Matt Stafford was called injury prone early in...

    Jimmy has proven he can get you there with a solid defense and running game. The biggest issue with him has been injury. Yeah he looked like shit in his last couple of games last year but he was playing with a high ankle sprain. If Shanahan ever gets his hands on a really elite QB the league...

    That's an interesting way to go about it. Keeping your expenses super low will definitely help you while you're getting established. Doing it without loans is also smart, but don't get religious about it. Interest isn't a good thing to spend money on, but you don't want to be turning away...

    Kittle claims he loves blocking with Juice too. If you look at the numbers it's kind of hard to justify what he gets paid but obviously he does something that they like. I'm willing to forgive a lot because of this though.

    I use miracle whip when I make tuna salad. Gives it some extra flavor. I'm not the biggest fan of either mayo or miracle whip though. I mostly use them to waterproof my bread but I'd rather have mustard for flavor if I'm making a cold sandwich.

    My brother used my cheap chinese edge trim bit on his butcher block counter tops and i'm not sure what happened but I got the bit back with a 15 degree bend in it and he had some nice bites out of his counter top. Those big routers are scary when things go wrong.
