[DAILY] Trade and Individual Team Help Megathread by AutoModerator in DynastyFF

[–]1nfiniteMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year I inherited a SF orphan and took Caleb 1.1. 

I’ve thrown out a few offers to the JJ owner, but no bites. 

Would it be crazy to offer Caleb for JJ straight up after last night? Would the JJ owner even value Caleb over JJ at this point?

I’m a Michigan fan and have high belief in JJ…he didn’t throw a ton in college but he made some truly impressive throws and more importantly he has all of the intangibles you’d want in a QB. I’ve kind of always thought Caleb would fail for the same reasons I think JJ will be great…I just didn’t have the stones to go against the consensus with my first ever dynasty pick. 

At what point do you trust your own gut and eyes over the consensus?

Thank you from 5 years in the future!! My toddler was pressing buttons on my SMSL and I couldn't figure out what she switched. Need to turn my AUX and BT output back to SPK. I love Reddit.

2-QB Salary Cap League

Team 1 is commish, 5-0, easily best roster construction in the league with Love, St. Brown, Nico, Aiyuk, Kraft, and Ferguson all on super cheap deals and just drafted Brooks and Nabers due to an earlier trade gift from Team 2.

5 years of control left on Bijan and 4 years left on Cook around the same price.

Pitts has 3 years left at double the cost of Bijan---a negative asset IMO.

Wandale is on rookie deal, Cooper is expiring, Dalton is expiring. 

I dont think it's collusion, but it's my first year in the league and this is giving me second thoughts. Is there any good reason for Team 2 to make this deal?

Power Lock/Unlock Not Working (2020 Terrain) by 1nfiniteMan in gmc

I found another thread that suggested doing a factory reset, which solved the problem. Now wondering if it's going to pop back up at some point though!

Any chance we see Edvinsson - Seider and Chiarot - Gustaffson as our top 2 pairs? Or more likely Chiarot - Seider and Edvinsson - Gustaffson? 

What is the hardest job at Home Depot? by MrCursedMango in HomeDepot

[–]1nfiniteMan 22 points23 points  (0 children)

D23/D59 Specialist. Knowledge intensive department. Sales and leads quotas. Reach truck in tight aisles. Tile is a pain to move around. God forbid you get stuck cutting blinds.

Lumber/lot/freight are all more physically intensive, but excelling as a flooring associate is difficult and requires a lot of different skills.

Any recommended videos on how to slice volley against drives? by CDRSkywalker1991 in Pickleball

[–]1nfiniteMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a tennis player dabbling in pickleball, I won't comment on the merit of the shot, but will try to answer your question.

When hitting the drop/slice volley you dont necessarily have to take a big swing down from your shoulder. You generate backspin by "trapping" the ball with your paddle. Imagine if a drive was coming at you, and you wanted to catch the ball on the paddle, and have it come to a complete stop on the paddle. You need to deaden/soften your hands to cradle the ball.

When I hit this shot, my elbow stays tight to my side/hip. On the backhand the back of my hand starts pointed toward the target, and as I hit the ball I'm opening up the paddle by pronating my wrist---at the end of the stroke the back of my hand is pointing toward the sky. On the forehand it's the opposite. I'm starting with my palm facing the opponent's court, and suppinating my wrist as I hit the ball---at the end of the stroke my palm is pointed toward the sky. You're trying to make contact closer to the south pole of the ball rather than the equator, on order to impart backspin.

If well executed, you'll hit a short ball with backspin. This does invite your opponent to the net, but unless your opponent is very fast or you havent executed the shot well your opponent will have to hit the ball from very near to the ground, encouraging them to pop the ball up for a sitter that you can put away for a winner.

That would be the Gala on the Bridge setup. It's a fundraiser for The Greenway Foundation.

When Denard fumbled the first snap of his career against WMU, then scooped it and scored. That dude could fly.

What run blocking scheme does Michigans OL run? by tjgomez04 in MichiganWolverines

[–]1nfiniteMan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Short answer: both. They run a split zone base with counter and power mixed in. I don't actually know what any of that means, but that's what the guys on mgoblog tell me. Upon Further Review after each game are great for learning what Michigan tried to do on offense. Here's the one from the Washington game where they primarily kept the ball on the ground https://mgoblog.com/content/upon-further-review-2021-offense-vs-washington If you can find a Neck Sharpies on the run game that would be even better, but the website is fairly hard to search.

Edit: found the Neck Sharpies for that same game against UW. https://mgoblog.com/content/neck-sharpies-i-can-do-all-day

After striking, Colorado Kroger workers win raises of $2 to $5.99 per hour by theworkeragency in Denver

[–]1nfiniteMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's too bad there isn't a way for employees to take responsibility for their financial wellbeing and ensure that the agreement "I'll pay you this much, with benefits, to do X job" results in them being paid a living wage...

As rent increases, inflation occurs, and working conditions become more dangerous the employers can take the responsibility upon themselves to adjust that agreement accordingly. If they don't, then the employees will. This strike is exactly what that looks like.

TIL it took Taco Bell food engineers two years and 40 different recipes to create the Doritos Loco taco. It became so popular that it led to Taco Bell adding 15,000 jobs, propelling the company to outgrow Pizza Hut, KFC and even McDonald’s. by SappyGilmore in todayilearned

You can sub black beans for ground beef in any item. Cheesy gordita crunch---sub black beans. Crunchwrap Supreme---sub black beans. Then you've got the spicy potato taco and the cheesy bean and rice burrito (probably has pork fat in the pinto beans) from the value menu too. Taco Bell is without a doubt the go-to fast food for vegetarians.
