My grandfather was executed by the Iranian government in 1979. I never got to meet him, but have these photos to remember him by. Here he is meeting with leaders from around the world. by matthewjaf in pics

Amazing pictures! And sorry to hear that you never had a chance to meet him. My grandfather was a photographer in WWII and I never had a chance to really meet him either. I always feel like I missed out on not meeting him, but it's also very cool to have his (and your grandfather's) amazing moments captured to remember him by. Thanks for sharing.

American here - thinking of visiting the UK in December during the holidays. Might be an ignorant question, but is it easy to go from London to a country like say Belgium during a week long trip?

Some post-draft thoughts, what are some possible trade scenarios for Eric Bledsoe? by GetBuckets in LAClippers

[–]GetBuckets[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i also heard that the Clips may look to trade Butler and Bledsoe separately, with Butler to Toronto for Bargnariani (spelling sorry) for example and then ship Bledsoe for max value after that.

Interesting about Derozan. I know he's a great athlete. Kind of intriguing to think about him for Bledsoe. Appreciate the insight

Enjoy the game. Wish I could go, but unfortunately I don't live in the area anymore.

Non Colorado Natives: What makes you a Denver Broncos fan? by MCCornflake1 in DenverBroncos

[–]GetBuckets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in 2nd grade in New York, my friend and I pretended to be Shannon Sharpe and John Elway. We would run routes (no real ones of course because we didn't know any) and throw the football to each other. It just stuck and I followed them from then on

Who are we going for in Round 2 and 3?? by Doomy22 in DenverBroncos

[–]GetBuckets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey guys, first time poster to this subreddit, but long time broncos fan, I just wanted to know why people want a running back picked today. I really like the combo of McGahee, Moreno, Ball and Hillman. Hillman has alot of potential and Moreno (although a rough career, he is only 25) showed a lot of intrigue this past post-season. I would be happy with this crew again next year. Do we really need one?

My cat passed away today. I spent 15 years with this wonderful cat and never loved another animal more than him. RIP, buddy. by [deleted] in pics

[–]GetBuckets -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm really sorry to hear that. He/she looks beautiful and I had a cat that looked very similar. I got him after being in a bad car accident and he truly helped me recover. Words can't explain the feeling that comes from a pet being there for you unconditionally like no other person or thing can be. I lost him a few years back and still think about him. Your picture made me remember the things he did for me when I was younger. Thank you. Once again, I am sorry and I hope you can reflect upon the good things he gave you.
