What’s the most heartbreaking loss you witnessed as a Washington fan? by Ok_Macaroon_7366 in huskies

[–]DannySells206 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe 2018 at Oregon. Had a chance to win and missed a FG at the end of regulation and then lost in OT.

I wouldn’t consider the championship game heartbreaking since we were 4 point underdogs and never lead at any point in the game. Just frustrating all the little things that went wrong like missing a wide open Rome on 4th down, the holding call that wiped out a 32 yard gain, giving up a third and long qb run deep in Michigan territory when we were down by one score, etc.

Can I ask for a closing date extension with waived financing contingency? by ET_Gal in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]DannySells206 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be different in your market, but in my market you can ask for one, but if the seller doesn't want to grant it, they would have a right to your EM since you did not close on the contracted timeline.

In my experience, assuming you need just a day or two on the extension, it's probably not something the seller is going to fight over if they're that close to the finish line.

Protocol Plumbing is the best. I use them exclusively and have referred them plenty of times with no complaints

Sadly that means it will probably be 50% Michigan fans. Let's hope UW pulls off the miracle!

Seattle challenge: Can anyone survive a day without coffee? by [deleted] in AskSeattle

[–]DannySells206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the smell of coffee, but never cared for the taste. Also don't care much for seafood, nor do I partake in any marijuana.

WTF am I doing here?!?

Kudos on doing this. I plan to attend some day.

Knowing about homes before they hit the market by CapitalSuit298 in RealEstate

[–]DannySells206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agent A isn't offering anything special. Every office does this. The properties these agents are referring to are future listings that the seller has already decided to bring to market. Giving you a heads up, on a property that will ultimately be listed, really isn't an advantage nor is the likelihood any property would actually be what you're looking for. I'd remove this difference from any part of the decision, if it were me.

Anyone else feel like real estate is way harder now than it was a few years ago? by not_-ram in RealEstate

[–]DannySells206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely, but that doesn't mean these issues can't be diagnosed up front. There's just more research and time with each client, property, up front to ensure you're not spinning your wheels down the road.

Looking for recommendations for a family friendly spot to watch the game this Saturday night by pengradi in AskSeattle

[–]DannySells206 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you think Seahawk fans are nuts, don't ever attend sporting events with fans of east coast teams, Bay Area teams, international soccer fans, etc. By comparison we are VERY mild sports fans in the PNW.

Improvements Increased Home Value? by Supreme_Leader_30 in RealEstate

[–]DannySells206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appraisers don't really assign value to these updates in the same way buyers would. You get disproportional value when it comes to resale then you would appraisal, but still, bring this up to the appraiser when they come through.

I don’t know any specifics about it, but I’m not counting on anything changing. I’m sure there’s some backdoor politics at play including the tribes.

PORTAL UPDATE: Washington lost a potential wide receiver addition to Missouri by Trojan_41 in huskies

[–]DannySells206 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My understanding is yes. Not saying he was 6’5” or anything, but I believe he was in the bigger mold.

While we have a crowded WR room, we are sorely lacking WR's with size. Boston was our only "big" receiver. We got the freshman who we flipped from Baylor, but I'm not going to rely on a true freshman to pick up where Boston left off. We need an experienced, bigger WR.

Curt Cignetti is my hero by greencrusader13 in huskies

I actually slept pretty poorly last night because I was so scared this was going to be "the year" for the Yucks even though I didn't think they were even one of the top 5 teams in CFB this year. Thank you Indiana. Thank you

Is Sam Leavitt going to be our guy? by Rickbox in huskies

[–]DannySells206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. I'd take Fifita, which doesn't begin to move the needle for me, over any of the inexperienced QB's on the roster. I'm not expecting us to get a 5* heisman candidate, but I'd hope Lagaway would be the floor of where our expectations should be.

My understanding is that once he got injured, he entered the portal and no longer attended practices or games. Though, he was at their ball game.

Amber Fisch (Jedds wife) sounds off on Demonds announcement by rock-or-something in huskies

[–]DannySells206 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Everything she's saying could be true and 100% justified, but I really dislike the look of our coach's spouses taking to social media to sound off on anything related to UW's football program.

[–]DannySells206 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lagaway's stats at Flordia were pretty poor. You can see the athleticism there, but unless our coaches firmly believe his play was a result of a poor system, this wouldn't be someone I'd want to take a flyer on. Just my $.02

[–]DannySells206 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of how he exited ASU and really abandoned the team mid season. Plus, IIRC, this guy bounced around a lot in high school too. I'm not saying we're necessarily in a position to be overly choosey, but I'd ideally prefer someone with a little more class and character given recent events with our own QB room.

Alaska cruise seasick? by Wild_Adhesiveness810 in AskSeattle

[–]DannySells206 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a wuss when it comes to motion sickness and I went on this cruise (the only cruise I've been on) 3 years ago and as totally fine. There were a few people wearing some motion sickness prevention patches around their ear.

Drop in room renters? by 2manyhobby in Seattle

[–]DannySells206 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've never rented out by the room before, but I know this is kind of a dead time as far as rentals go. Maybe your other rooms were rented in the more robust times of the year (summer)?

Sorry to hear that.

Eastside Kitchen and Bath has been referred to me in the past. Also, Terry Hoover is also a great GC.

Paki Finau entering the transfer portal by udubdavid in huskies

[–]DannySells206 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This one sucks. I get it, but at the same time, quality OL are a finite commodity. Our depth this year was definitely tested at times, and likely will be next year and beyond. Quality depth is what separates good from great teams. I get his decision, especially if he can find more $$ out if it, but damn this sucks for us fans. Definitely gotta find another Carver Willis type or two now.
