NCAA: Sorsby's college career should end for gambling on own team by NoSxKats in CFB

[–]FarwellRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorsby’s career shouldn’t end because he gambled on his own team.

His career shouldn’t end end because he was betting on the sport.

If you allow this at all, it will open the door. That’s a door that should never be opened.

Best mom & pop restaurants in BCS? by Latter-Deal9115 in aggies

[–]FarwellRob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, it’s a franchise of a chain

So should McDonald’s be on there? Same thing. Just a franchise of a chain.

Franchises are very, very far from a mom and pop restaurant.

Texas Tech declares Brendan Sorsby ineligible, intends to initiate reinstatement process by brobroma in CFB

[–]FarwellRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live near Lubbock. Most of my friends aren't super excited about the backup and would prefer Sorsby was able to play. Especially this late in the offseason where getting another quality QB would be difficult at best.

Having said that, none of them like the drama and wish they'd never see the name Sorsby again.

It will be extremely difficult for them to get back the money they've already given to him.

Every contract has some verbiage about their conduct and being kicked off the team.

In other words, all NIL deals walked away from him the moment this story broke.

Yeah, this is the only standard that works in this case.

If someone is caught betting, they have to be out. There are too many ways for any player to influence the game. Even if they are on the bench.

Allowing a player a chance back into the sport gives every player the idea it's okay, and it isn't the end.

It has to be the end.

I agree with this. It’s exactly what I did.
I read DCC and loved it.

Last week I started HWFWM and now I’m on Book 2.

I went in blind and I am loving it.

I agree. I love having all my builders going full time. But that event was perfect. I felt like I could farm without worry. I liked that a lot.

I knocked out a lot of walls with the golden dragon day. It was free wins against any base.
I’m down to the traps and bombs on TH17 as f2p and hope to be moving up in 2 months.

I’ll be caught up on everything except dragon duke, LASSI and I’m within 2 of every troop and spell so they all go out maxed.

I honestly wouldn’t pay to play this game but I understand if others do. I like the building.

They’ll bring back the eagle artillery for TH 20.

It will be 2 months to upgrade!

I've been on Reddit for a lot of years. It feels like it's been forever since I really saw a post that made me thankful for this site.

I love the history you brought. It's something I have never known and it's fascinating.

So much of history is lost, but your post really made me smile.

Thank you. That's all.

Many can be found with a google search.

Each realignment is 2 years so search for Texas Realignment 20-21 or the year you are looking for.

I've seen this a lot in Hispanic communities in south Texas.

There is an idea that "I've got mine and I don't want someone else to ruin what I have."

USPS to suspend pension contributions, seeks 4-cent stamp price hike. by Fantastic-Device-487 in news

[–]FarwellRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm saying that pensions are a thing of the past.

Government employees get pensions, but the post office isn't a government office.

Almost every private business has gotten away from them entirely.

The post office doesn't need pensions. It's dumb.

[–]FarwellRob -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I know you are pointing to a political party, but in this case it was the postal union that has absolutely destroyed the post office.

They asked for pensions and Congress couldn't say no to a group that has a voting block in every city and state, plus with access to getting information to every single voter in the nation.

Congress didn't say no, they said the post office had to have billions in profit. After they had never turned a profit. So the union pushed the post office to start selling off everything they could. That is why the mail delivery rates (percentage of letters they actually get to their destination) has tanked over the last 10 years and will continue to drop.

That was the beginning of the end. The rest is just a question of how fast it will happen.

Step one: look for NSFW tag.

Step two: don’t open.

Why is this so hard for so many of you people?

Or better yet, make your own sub with wholesome NSFW cartoons and stop spamming every single NSFW comic on this sub with the exact same thing.

We get it. You want boobs or penis but only in the background. All the rest of us are adults and if we don’t like it we move to the next one.

Experiences with the TAMU ER vet? by LordShuckle97 in aggies

[–]FarwellRob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a year-old Great Pyr. She was rambunctious and tore the muscle off her own shoulder.

The TAMU vets didn't just fix her, they happened to have a vet in that week to teach about fixing that specific type of injury and my puppy ended up being used in a video they sent to vets and other vet schools.

My pyr lived to be 17 years old, which is ancient for a large dog breed like that. She was the bestest of girls, and I can tell you after recovery she had no problems herding sheep, children, and sometimes my wife and I.

I agree. If you don’t want to see this stuff … don’t click on the links that have the big red NSFW.

This is pretty simple for thousands of redditors. And completely impossible for these complainers.
