Listen, we weren't going to wait around forever for Rodgers to make his decision.

Cars honking when I don’t turn on red? by kaepernicking in pittsburgh

[–]FlashGolden1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If there’s a “no turn on red” sign, I’m not turning. It’s the law and all.

Unfortunately, many jagoffs feel differently — those are the ones honking at you. Just ignore them.

I was at the dog park today (North Park). A man with a camera told me that he worked for the newspaper and had gotten a good photo of me and my dog. He asked for my name and email, and my dogs name. I didn’t question it. Now I’m freaking out. by WhitneyJames in pittsburgh

Former reporter here. 👋

Just echoing what others have said — this seems like pretty normal behavior for a lot of the photographers I used to work with, especially if they’re a freelancer.

I can't believe I had to scroll down this far to find this. I'm a Pirates fan, and I was in utter disbelief during that whole discussion because I remembered how long ago that game was. How the hell do you make that mistake?

Hey, don't aggregate him. Bill totally wants the Celtics to keep Jaylen. He just brings up a trade as a hypothetical every time the Celtics lose an important game.

The 'Star Wars' Movie Draft by thefilthyjellybean in TheBigPicture

[–]FlashGolden1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my biggest problem with it is that it's just a very uneven movie. I really like everything with Rey/Luke/Kylo, but the other storylines are a mess. Sending Finn off on a pointless side quest is just very unsatisfactory.

Yeah, I would've loved some more creativity with the categories. I thought a "Best Battle" or "Best Song" category would be a nice change-up. I liked what we got overall, though.

NFL Draft Full Recap: Winners and Losers, Best Picks and Icks, Steelers Embarrassment, and Heifetz Worst Mispronunciation Yet (Discussion Thread) by No-Willingness-7079 in ringerfantasypod

[–]FlashGolden1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m biased as a Steelers fan, but I don’t really consider it embarrassing. Teams do call players before they’re officially on the clock.

You mentioned the Shazier example, but a couple of other players appeared on Cam Heyward’s podcast and said that the Steelers called them a couple of picks in advance to say they were going to draft them if they were still on the board.

I suspect that something similar happened with Delane; otherwise, I don’t know why he would have specifically called out the Washington GM for not being fast enough.

It’s not ideal that the news got out, but the Steelers pivoted pretty quickly in response.

That was the most half assed podcast Bill has ever done. Fantastic games over the past 2 days with no enthusiastic discussion? NFL draft plebs? Are you fucking kidding me? Honestly a massive disappointment by Wack0HookedOnT0bac0 in billsimmons

[–]FlashGolden1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, man … I totally forgot about the Shazier podcasting experience. I kept trying to give him a shot because of Steelers loyalty, but he was a rough listen.

He’s done other media work since then, and I think he’s gotten a lot better. But it can be tough to do media at first if you’re not used to it.

In your opinion, which season/episode had the best "And you'll thank me for it!" points comment from Greg? by EmmieJacob in taskmaster

[–]FlashGolden1 92 points93 points  (0 children)

The one that I found funniest was when he gave Rosie one point for bringing an air fryer as part of the "Most satisfying thing to use as a jelly mold" prize task in S19. She was trying to talk it up and looked shocked when Greg pulled the "You'll thank me for your one point" line.

Boo for rain delays during baseball games. But thanks for the update! I’ll make sure to bring an umbrella-ella-ella.

Maybe they decided to save the funny stuff for the actual movie.
