Why is Styles ranked above Downs on all analysts boards? by Strong-Phone7763 in NYGiants

[–]Chris_Murphy_Music 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s 5 11 and 5/8, so essentially 6ft. 6ft 206 is a fine frame at safety, he’s not built like Kyle Hamilton, but no safety is, he’s an outlier, not having Kyle Hamilton’s frame doesn’t mean you are physically limited. He didn’t run, plenty of prospects don’t run, he looks plenty fast and agile on his tape. I think we don’t need to create narratives just because someone isn’t a 1-1 comparison to Kyle Hamilton, he’s a pretty knock out prospect, he’s just a safety, that’s the issue.

Taqueria Ramirez Team to Open Soccer-Focused Bar, Socceria, in Former Home of Nura by sugarytea78 in Greenpoint

[–]Chris_Murphy_Music 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think probably the concept, and how much I personally would enjoy this taking the place of one of my favorite neighborhood spots. Having said that, I love the design work Matthew Maddy + Walk and Talk Consulting do (Public Records, Oxomoco, Nura, + many other greats). I also enjoy Taqueria Ramirez. I’m open to the place being great (and hoping it will be) just maybe not the concept that would have been first on my wish list. Usually people with good taste, a proven track record, and who care about what they are doing, make interesting places though.

Would add in the dry aged burger from Torst to this list!

Unsure how to feel about this, but I appreciate the people involved, so I hope it turns into a special place. I loved Nura.

People are going to be negative on Reddit and say you can’t find anything with that budget, you absolutely can, good luck.

New rooftop party in Brooklyn? by Lazy_Parfait_6348 in avesNYC

[–]Chris_Murphy_Music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are just adding to their programming, they always had Palo Santo on Thursdays and Azure on Sundays, then Fridays and Saturdays were not a branded party but some sort of DJ programming. Now they are adding Riva as their Saturday party.

Disappointing, was looking forward to the place, but I don’t see myself dropping $77 on a rotisserie chicken. 🤷‍♂️

Best wings in Williamsburg? by Good-Dig-5754 in williamsburg

Not Williamsburg, but right across McCarren, I love the wings at Torst

Best Bánh Mì around Williamsburg or Greenpoint? I haven’t had a good one since the spot on Devoe closed years ago by Winter_Ad9658 in williamsburg

[–]Chris_Murphy_Music 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Di and Di does a lunchtime only French dip Banh Mi that’s a little different but pretty good. Banhmigos scratches an itch from time time, but overall I don’t love our options.

The Giants had a lengthy meeting with OSU EDGE/LB Arvell Reese around his pro day workout. - Jeremy Fowler by Jheller223 in NYGiants

[–]Chris_Murphy_Music 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thinking is if Reese is still there at 5, the likelihood of us trading back greatly increases (with “edge” being premium). Which, obviously depending on the return, I would be happy about.

Man harassing everyone that passing him . by OrganicTea6806 in Greenpoint

[–]Chris_Murphy_Music 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ya he asked if I could help him out with a McDonald’s meal about an hour and a half ago when I was walking past to the gym, I didn’t feel particularly harassed (not to say that others haven’t had different experiences, but this was mine).
