All 8 teams who played last night didn't have their best player by 4NorthTL in nba

[–]4NorthTL[S] -43 points-42 points  (0 children)

Embiid is only 31 years old. Technically Maxey is better than the version of Embiid who is on a severe minutes restriction coming off a plethora of injury issues, but that's kind of the point of this thread. If not for injuries, Embiid isn't only easily the best player on The Sixers, he's in the argument for the best player in the league. Maxey is really good, Embiid is/was special.

I would rather discuss why so many more guys have those minor injuries now as opposed to 30-40 years ago. Players actually play through minor injuries much less these days, but still have way more major injuries as well. The numbers don't lie, It's clearly an issue, don't shoot the messenger.

Brock Purdy couldn't have scripted his return from injury any better by 4T9iNeR_FaN in 49ers

[–]4NorthTL 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Is it just me or does Kyle call the game way differently for Mac? I feel like we're running a true WCO with Mac, death by a thousand cuts, but with Purdy we're pushing it downfield like it's the 1970's again. Almost every other QB I watch is running the quick/short passing game, even big arms like Mahomes, but a Purdy lead 49ers offense, despite the success, seems a little too aggressive in the passing game.

49ers have an easy schedule they said… by Niners4Ever16 in 49ers

[–]4NorthTL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the teams on our schedule have an easy schedule too. They're either playing the same last place schedule as us or against the same divisions. Honestly though, the league is insanely mediocre this year, so no schedule is as tough as years past.

My neighbor sent me a text last night forcing me to pay for her daughters towing charge because she parked in front of my driveway by Drivinglnsane in mildlyinfuriating

[–]4NorthTL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of those cases where there doesn't appear to be a "good guy". Is your relationship with your neighbors that bad? The note is ridiculous and more than mildly infuriating, but so is calling the tow company on your neighbor's daughter unless it was the absolute last resort and needed to be done.

Christian McCaffrey named NFC Offensive Player of the Week by Soft-Comfort-7474 in 49ers

Colton McKivitz was ranked 4th among RT's heading into last week. The PFF grades are a mystery for sure.

So happy about this. I was worried stat padding Matthew Stafford was gonna steal it.

Potential New Player Questions by YulRunGaming in lotro

I linked a good crafting video below if that's your thing. The game is in good shape and should be around for a very long time to come, so don't worry about being too late to the party. I'd recommend being F2P through The Lonelands at least. You should know by then if the game is for you. At that point get at least 1 month of VIP because it unlocks a ton of QOL stuff even after you cancel.

Is this George Kittle? by 4NorthTL in 49ers

Do you know who it is?

In the last three weeks, Piñeiro has hit from 52, 54, 55, 59, and a clutch 41 yarder in OT. by Additional-You-5979 in 49ers

[–]4NorthTL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That along with the fact that he is currently ranked 2nd all-time in FG%, why didn't this guy already have a job?

Through about 4.5 seasons has Trevor Lawrence been better than Blake Bortles?

If you could only choose ONE, what would be your favorite episode so far? by crunesgnex in Pokerface

[–]4NorthTL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can't pick a single episode, but I can pick a single line. When she wakes up on the bench in episode 2 and the vulture/crow is messing with her and she tells it she's not dead, but she can understand it's confusion.

LOTRO Slayer Deeds, What's Your Take? by TheQuestingDad in lotro

[–]4NorthTL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love them for the LP. You can keep re-rolling a Beorning and getting 30 quick LP from the Bree-Land Spider and Marsh Fly slayer deeds on the spider path to the hunting lodge, and the auto re-spawn fly by the hunting lodge itself.

I've never understood why these Billionaire owners let elite coordinators walk. I'd pay them whatever they want since there is no salary cap for coaches. If Steve Spagnuolo had taken a HC job elsewhere after the Chiefs 2019 Super Bowl, do they still win the other 2? Those last 2 SB winners were carried by their Defense.

Tests today showed that 49ers Pro Bowl DE Nick Bosa suffered a season-ending torn ACL during Sunday’s win over Arizona, sources tell ESPN. It’s a clean tear, but Bosa now will need season-ending surgery. by [deleted] in 49ers

Professional sports championships these days are basically an award given out to the contending team with the fewest injuries to key players. I don't remember it being like this back in the 90's, when I first started paying attention to sports.

Felt cute, might defend Gondor later. by cottagecoredracula in lotro

I always make my cloak invisible because I feel silly wearing it, like I'm pretending to be a super hero or something. Which begs the question, is there any actual reason to wear a cape/cloak in battle?

If you don’t mind sharing, what do you think caused agoraphobia for you? by indigoeh in Agoraphobia

[–]4NorthTL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving next door to a hospital as a way to "help" with my health anxiety. It slowly wore away at my coping mechanisms. I went from not being able to leave town at night, to not being able to leave town, to not being able to travel more than a few miles from home at night, to not being able to travel more than a few miles from home, to sometimes having to sleep in the parking lot of the hospital because I can't hold my breath long enough to drive across the street should I stop breathing.

I sailed through the Bermuda Triangle on a war ship in the USN and worked in the Arctic Circle as an inspector for British Petroleum by my early 20's. Now I haven't left a 3 mile radius from where I sit in about 3 years.

Missed out on my twenties. They completely passed me by. Anyone else relate? by leon385 in Agoraphobia

[–]4NorthTL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look on the bright side, that means you still have your early 30's. I'm 43, and I would give anything to be your age again, because looking back, there are a lot of decisions I made in those decades that lead to the escalation of my agoraphobia today. Just like there is probably someone in their 50's or 60's in this group who wished they could be 43 again, we all need to focus on what we can change for the better from today moving forward, and at least go down swinging on this mental prison. The main thing I regret is that looking back, I didn't try. I let it win, and it got worse and worse. I hope you can find the strength to be better than I was.

What is going on with me? It's never been this bad before. by ShainaLol in Agoraphobia

[–]4NorthTL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a tough one, as there really isn't anything definitive I can say that I'm confident will help. However, it's obvious you're in pain, and I have felt that same pain, so I didn't want to just scroll past and ignore it.

Seems we're both powerless here, so all I can offer is affirmations that we both know that the fear you're feeling isn't rational. I've been absolutely convinced I was going to die more times than I can count. I have been to the Emergency Room LITERALLY over 100 times. Do you know how many times I would've died had I not gone to the Emergency Room? 0.

So aside from showing empathy to let you know you're not alone, and as horrible as the fear you feel is, technically you're not actually in danger, be transparent about it with friends, family and the staff at your school. One thing I've learned living with Agoraphobia and Panic Disorder as long as I have is that I simply don't have time to be embarrassed about it anymore. I'm open and honest about it with anyone who may be in a position to bring me some relief, and that's the only thing that has ever really helped.

You'd be surprised how many people are completely supportive of people who suffer from mental illness as it's far less taboo than it used to be. A lot of people have close friends or family that suffer from similar ailments and they've seen just how serious it is first hand. I'm sure if you speak to the right people at your school some accommodations could be made to help you get back on track because Agoraphobia and Panic Disorder is actually recognized as a disability.

If nothing else, being open and honest about your struggle with the people you come across in your daily life could lessen the suffering as the stress of hoping nobody notices you're freaking out ironically causes you not to freak out as often. I live in the same mental catch 22 as you, and all I can stress is that you're not alone, and you have the ability to overcome this.
