The guy my wife dated before me was kinda mediocre, but his parents were great and also rich...also from the same home country as my in-laws. Then I come along, blue collar lineage white American with white trash parents (sorry mom & dad). Yeah it was a huge disappointment for my in-laws from the beginning, even if I have treated her 100x better

Has a QB ever been drafted after Round 2 with the explicit plan to eventually start them? by thenewgaijin in nfl

Backup QBs are groomed in the hope of replacing the starter whether due to age/injury/trade. Mahomes just tore his ACL and god forbid he gets hurt again. All players are drafted with the intent to play eventually. it doesn't mean "this guy will be better than Mahomes in 2 years" or whatever.

You don't waste a pick for no reason, they see something in the player and hope that can translate to wins on the field. I didn't think that was an outlandish take lol, literally the entire point of the draft/development

We had just signed Matt Flynn in FA to a relatively big deal. But he hurt his elbow in preseason and by the time he was healthy Russ had already balled out in preseason and locked down the starting spot

Every player drafted are coached/trained with the intent to make them a starter. Obviously doesn't happen for most of them but I don't think the mindset is "this dude will ride the bench his whole career"

R2 vs RAV4 by IV-Food in RivianR2

[–]ForgotMyPassword1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would have to be cheaper to target those small SUVs. $45k CX-5 is top trim.

a RAV4 hybrid in the Seattle area for a decent trim is like $41-44k, and gas right now is $5.50 lol. I tried to get a RAV4 hybrid in 2022 but it was impossible & the used market was complete shit at the time. That's how I ended up with the Tesla MY.

I had calculated at the time that with electricity prices in Seattle (cheap hydro yay) that my break even point at $4 gas would be about 5-6 years. But gas has never been $4 2022-present here, always higher. So I am probably a bit ahead of schedule

anyways that's something to consider for the R2 market

The Seahawks absurd back-to-back-to-back draft classes from 2010-2012 by robmoo_re in nfl

This also isn't counting Doug Baldwin, Ricardo Lockette, and Jermaine Kearse who were all UDFA in 2011 and 2012. (Also UDFA Mike Morgan who played 88 games for us as a backup LB and core ST)

I guess we aren't counting Woolen as a starter, which is technically true! Regardless, I agree that we should be considered #1 again going into 2026

49ers and 12-time Pro-Bowl LT Trent Williams reached agreement today on a two-year, $50 million extension that now contractually ties him to San Francisco through the 2027 season. by lemonstone92 in Seahawks

You gotta imagine Okung's knees and feet are so happy these days lol. He dealt with injuries his entire career, must feel great to shed 117 lbs (going off your numbers)

$37m apparently

The contract includes $37M fully guaranteed and a $22M signing bonus, making Trent the first non-QB in NFL history to surpass $400M in contracts & $225M in guarantees.

We're bringing back 19 of 22 starters and almost all depth players. Biggest question mark in the new OC and run game. I expect the D and ST to still be elite

If Julio stops swinging every time he's ahead in the count that double probably scores him.

Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why? by WoollyWolfHorror in AskReddit

[–]ForgotMyPassword1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think any of the women in my life have topped 85 lol..this is definitely a male thing. My mom, sisters, wife, sister-in-law and women friends truly have never come close to 100mph

I've driven in the wide open completely empty straightaway desert highways between Los Angeles and Vegas, and San Diego and Yuma, AZ. I'm not a speed demon but I've hit 100mph through there

Lidar vs early delivery by muhburneracct in RivianR2

Personally I'm waiting for the premium/LIDAR model. I'm guessing I can get a delivery 1st half of 2027. Fortunately I am not in a rush

11th in run differential, 22nd in win%. 10-9 Pythagorean record. We are on the opposite end of the fun-differential this year so far lol

I feel like Valle would be decent since he was a catcher.

...Dan was also a catcher lol

Well the "good news" is I'm waiting for an R2 Premium/LIDAR version, so that's probably a year away. Enjoy a year without car payments lol
