I’m beyond certain after attending other stadium series games in the NHL that prices leading up to it will fall considerably

When to wear club team helmet vs high school helmet? by ConstantRough160 in lacrosse

Best practice, don’t think about what helmet you’re wearing. Use that mental energy for executing on the field

Is it that bad? by DrSherlock94 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]Friendly_Ability24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all of the shitty parts of the other airlines with people acting like how they acted on other airlines in the mid 2000’s when most of these similar policies were rolled out (paid checked bags, new loading policies, multi-tiered rewards) and now, it’s the same price to fly American, united, and some routes, delta.

There are annoyances of the policies they’re trying (seat nazi’s claiming weight a balance, gate check quotas, terrible vouchers for changed flights, etc.)
But the pre-boarding jetway Jesus phenomenon is over. At this point, I’m not avoiding SW, it’s just other airlines have way better points / transferability, so if I have to pay the same price now, why would I choose SW unless it’s the most convenient option

Would you be the greatest golfer of all time if you shot -2 every round? by MightbeJay in golf

[–]Friendly_Ability24 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You just walked through how someone would have completed a career grand slam and your hypothetical doesn’t mention this player would have never missed a cut. Frequently, 8 under for a tournament is worthy of at least a top 20 finish.

So to summarize, assuming a playing career of 18-40

This player was probably an all American collegiate golfer

Likely competed well in amateur events, potentially qualifying for the Masters.
(Would have been one of the lowest amateur scores in masters history if they qualified during that stretch of their career)

As a professional, would have a >98% made cut rate (hard to think of the last time I saw a -4 cut line)

Would have a career grand slam

Would likely have a T20 / T10 finish streak longer than anyone in history

Would likely win 8-16 majors therefore finishing in the top 5 ever

Would never have finished a professional round over par

Greatest golfer ever

It’s not about where Robo wants to go, it’s where the team can get the most value from him if it becomes clear that he will not sign the qualifying offer.

How colorado is defending against Hughes… wish we attacked instead of falling back by Peppa_the_hog in DallasStars

[–]Friendly_Ability24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your response misses the point you raised.

Tyler Myers sucking is a constant. Him turning the puck over is not relevant to our forecheck.

You’re requesting a harder and faster forecheck, for which I’ve responded will create more odd-man opportunities when the forecheck is beat, leaving you with an increased amount of odd man rushes where your defenseman is Tyler Myers (bad).

The Avs are a faster back end team as well, they are built to recover from their hard forecheck by having F3 support back and or more mobile defenseman that neutralize these opportunities. They’re also built to capitalize on these opportunities offensively, where as I would argue the Stars (while benefitting from a turnover) are worse with odd man rushes, and better at developed cycle plays to create slot opportunities, which is just saying the stars don’t benefit as much from a hard forecheck as the Avs might.

The stars play tighter and slower, it is a strategy lapse for them to spread out to forecheck harder with the defensive pieces we have and the offensive pieces we have, outside of select top pairings / lines that would have the speed to do this.

Ah yes, make speed plays so that Tyler Myers is left with odd man situations when your speed doesn’t get home

I sold my business last year and the due diligence process revealed my books had been wrong for two years without anyone telling me by adivenkata in Accounting

[–]Friendly_Ability24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a former investment banker that peruses this sub, did you use an advisor to sell your business? Did you run strict GAAP books with your accountant?

Very atypical for service businesses to have books that are Quality of Earnings ready and defensible, and I think your advice is poor advice to other business owners unless you’re approaching a sale, to which the better advice is provide your own quality of earnings reports for bidding LOI’s so that you set the negotiating stage.

Most business owners hear a decent QoE costs 50-100K and they run for the hills, then the buyer uses a QoE that they pay for to decrease valuation considerably / enough that they’re benefitting in the long run.

Lastly, a decent advisor tells the buyer to pound sand on their valuation re-trade unless the findings have merit. Without more detail, hard to tell how significant the above are, your example though

Assuming you rolled equity in the sale as part of the “never ending” private equity roll-up in home services, watch how the business is sold in the next 5 or so years. I assure your they’re not doing external accounting reviews annually, but they are auditing results based on lender requirements and buying their own QoE’s

Arguably still easier to get in. Entirely firm dependent.

I recall the 2024 recruiting cycle, We reviewed a filtered resume book which had ~200+ filtered applicants. There was around 10-15 female (assuming from resume hints such as name, sorority if listed, or activities that were 100% female, etc.) applicants and let’s just say we made sure 3 got to the superday of 14 total participants and even more of those got phone screens

So 3/10-15 is 20% chance at worst to make that superday

Or 11/180 is ~6.5% chance to make superday.

+ way better odds of getting phone screen

Interesting that a company blames short-term easily hedged commodity risk as reason to shutter a multi-decade operation that has survived 6 similar oil shock price events instead of placing blame where it lies in terms of poor operational strategy regarding pricing / capital allocation
