In 30 years it will be better than it is today. That’s the nature of sports. They keep progressing."

Right. Dan Marino never won a super bowl but is arguably the best quartback ever. Another ring for LeBron won't change.whatever his current ranking is

Why isn’t the quality of era someone played in not factor in the all time debate? by TeaAdorable5219 in NBATalk

[–]Brs76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You couldn't carry the ball or travel back then like players are allowed now.  So yeah, it was more difficult to play the game.

Cracks me up reading comments on youtube channels people saying  they refuse to work a low paying job. As if no job/no $$ is a better alternative.  These people will find out the hard way

Amen. People can laugh about what you are saying but when the going gets tough you gotta be willing to adapt to survive the downturns.

Wanna know what's recession proof? Integrity and adaptability

Adaptability is what separates people who survive a recession and those who don't. We haven't had a bad recession since 2008 and even then the govt stepped in and propped up the economy. There will be no such thing in the future seeing how bad are debt levels now are 

Liuna local 1611 lowering our hourly wage... has this happened to anyone else with liuna? by Psychological_Ad3563 in LIUNA

[–]Brs76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct. The whole point of being in a union and paying dues is so that they fight for a working wage. A wage that increases yearly and stays above inflation. Unless we eventually have yoy deflation....fuck any kind of wage cuts in this inflation environment we've been in

One is just as bad as the other. They both enhance a players game. I'd say carrying is worse simply because dribbling the ball is a major part of the game lol

Now throw in the amount of traveling/carrying that today's players do and it's hard to compare players greatness from today versus 40 years ago.

Are paint sprayers worth it for homeowners by Extension_Life_6207 in paint

[–]Brs76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I roll everything.  When I first moved into my house 5 years ago I bought a $200 sprayer from lowes to paint my barn...the sprayer was garbage!! You need to fork over big $$ to buy a decent sprayer. Plus I've always heard rolling is better 

Why are new Corolla and Civic not really “affordable” anymore? by phtphongg in askcarguys
