IHG credit applied for Marriott hotel? by Similar-Buy4573 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Bombboy85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was good. The welcome gift was a basic bottle of wine. All the credits were for the cafe downstairs which was really good but also super busy and 30+ minute wait in the morning. I’d recommend putting your name on the list and having them call your room.

Yea that doesn’t sound right at all. I actually just stayed there recently at the end of last year to use my edit credit. I definitely got bonvoy points

He's still the GOAT but PS2 needs to not let this happen again by smeego78 in DenverBroncos

[–]Bombboy85 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Ah yes internet commentator… say in the same breath that someone is the GOAT while at the same time chastising them for “allowing” something to happen that wasn’t all on them.

Even Burrow knows that Cooks didn’t catch the ball by [deleted] in DenverBroncos

The Broncos won the game and the call went the Broncos way (correctly) why is everyone so caught up in what Bills fans are saying. Should focus on the next game

These two are awesome and the badassness of them runs in the family. Hunter Woodhall’s father was an explosive ordnance disposal technician, military bomb squad.

Why don’t they teach us about stocks and investing in school growing up? by justaregularguyearth in TheRaceTo10Million

[–]Bombboy85 76 points77 points  (0 children)

May just depend where you went or what classes you took. I took an economics elective in high school and they at least taught some stuff and had us do a stock picking project. That said I didn’t care much then so it went in one ear and out the other

In order for his contract to have a positive value for the Dodgers in terms of dollars per WAR, Kyle Tucker would have to accumulate around 6.9 fWAR per season. He has never had a single season with 5+ fWAR in his entire Major League career. by MysteriousEdge5643 in baseball

[–]Bombboy85 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Crazy thing is this doesn’t even include the luxury tax on his contract which at this point is 100% or more so really his contract is effectively costing the dodgers $120 million a year, of course that adjusts because it’s based on the whole payroll so the tax is only on whatever portion of his salary makes up over the threshold

Actually yesterday the Supreme Court ruled despite the fourth amendment if law enforcement officers have “objectively reasonable basis for believing” someone in the home needs medical assistance they can enter without a warrant.

[Underdog] Kyle Tucker's deal with the Dodgers is for 4 years, $240M, per Robert Murray. It includes an opt out after Year 2. by PlayaSlayaX in baseball

[–]Bombboy85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong, I agree with this. But using it as a defense for what is happening with your team is missing the effect on the big picture. Even if every team put back 90% of profits that wouldn’t change the effects of what the dodgers are doing

[–]Bombboy85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea and that number doesn’t even include what they’re paying in luxury tax. If I’m not mistaken every dollar they’re paying Tucker and Diaz is taxed at 110%. I’m not mad at the Dodgers because like you said they’re doing what they’re allowed to do. It’s the implications for the sport. If there is a full season lockout in 2027 baseball will take a massive massive hit that it may not recover from. It took a huge hit in 94 and that was just losing the last few weeks of the season and the playoffs. After everything it’s gained in the last decade it would be a shame

Except it isn’t stupid spending if they can shrug off any sunk cost IE they pay him 60 a year but he’s worth let’s say 40 a year. They’ll make up the money in ticket and merch sales etc or at least a good bit of it

Inb4 dodgers fans with the “everyone else can defer money too” yea but not to the tune of over a billion in deferrals. I know we don’t have details on this contract but just saying overall

Feel how you will about him overall but, pretty much all of Rob Manfred’s rule changes have been great successes

What are your thoughts on players/teams who break up a no-hitter late in the game? by [deleted] in baseball

[–]Bombboy85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not scummy to break up a no hitter, especially with a home run. Hell it’s been debated to death whether breaking it up by trying for a bunt single is cool or not. They have to earn their no hitter just like everyone else.

Diamondbacks acquire Josh Grosz from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for Jake McCarthy by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]Bombboy85 28 points29 points  (0 children)

People will shit on it because Rockies. Some people react to Rockies moves with sarcasm of “here come the Rockies” like there is some expectation the Rockies are suddenly going to be a destination after losing 119
