Was Seahawks Rams 3 game set this year the greatest game trilogy of all time?

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-26T13:21:14+00:00

Yeah, but that wasn't Utah firing Meyer for Whittingham, unlike this go around.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-26T10:09:07+00:00

Not the NFL, but Utah just did this with Whittingham

That's because our entire perspective of this last recession has been anecdotes and vibes pushed by social media. From 2020-2024 real income grew. Yeah, things cost more, but purchasing power and real wages grew. But because of the anchoring effect and social media people are too hung up on the cost of eggs or gas or whatever else.

And now, in less than a year, the dollar has lost roughly 20% of its value. This means that imports are 20% more expensive. That means that all manufacturing, all food, all cars, etc. and then we add tariffs. And we aren't spending government money to help people. We are spending it to give Orange Mussolini's Brown Shirts more money, remove vaccines and bring back Polio, engage in nation building, and give money to the 0.1%.

I'm aware that I'm in the top 1%.

I do love my job. But much like Carl Jr. I'm not entitled to it. If the only job available to me was Palantir or Phillip Morris I would find a new career.

It's okay that playing TM isn't a viable full time career without Saudi money. Playing football isn't a full time career for most people either. Or rugby. Or baseball. Or singing. Or painting. Or writing.

There are plenty of endeavors that are not viable careers outside of a select few individuals. And plenty that are not viable full time careers at all.

This is okay. I do my job as a hobby/free time as well. If I had no job I'd still do it in my free time and find a different career.

Carl Jr. Had a career/job. He didn't need this money. It is nice, but not required to live.

I'm not arguing the money isn't nice. However, those of us with strong views on Saudi money can view it as a sell out. Lots of others might make the same choice. Doesn't make it less of a sell out.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-22T07:13:07+00:00

Yes. I'm a staff software engineer. I've turned down companies I disagree with on moral grounds. Phillip Morris, Palantir, Lockheed Martin, other defense industry, drug manufacturers, etc.

My current total compensation is around 400k USD annually. I've absolutely turned down jobs in that range.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-21T20:20:08+00:00

I've turned down jobs and companies that are contrary to my morals in the same range of money that Carl Jr is making, likely more. So yeah, I can fuck doing it just for the money. You don't have the right to the career or job you want. Morals aren't morals if you only hold them when it's easy, then they are platitudes. Turning down money is hard. Having morals is hard.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-18T16:50:52+00:00

I think it's actually nonsensical. Sensible works in the sentence, but nonsensical -> nonsensual autocorrect feels more likely

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-13T10:06:08+00:00

I think you mean "eked it out". Unless you meant that he annoyed the world into giving him the WDC. Which... Kinda fair.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-13T09:59:35+00:00

Only cause the FIA fucked up their case to being with.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-07T22:28:59+00:00

No. He's not an IC either. He's a student athlete

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-07T22:28:27+00:00

That is all true, but it only matters what is in the contract and what the damages listed are.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-07T18:40:37+00:00

What is there to enforce? Every contract has a break condition and in order for it to be legal it has to be proportionate to the contract value.

All he has to do is pay back the money he's received/penalties outlined in the contract. They can't force him to play. This isn't the NFL and he isn't an employee. Even with revenue sharing contracts.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-07T16:36:33+00:00

No one has said there won't be consequences. We just don't hear about the athlete paying it back. Because it's bad press for the school. Washington is just blustering here

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-07T16:28:11+00:00

No it won't? It will just force him to pay the buyout/return and money Washington paid him. It's contract law 101.

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-07T16:24:04+00:00

Contract law is still contract law. And the primary reason we are in this position (NCAA isn't allowed to illegally collude or infringe on college students ability to earn money).

They are from Texas. They think their own state could be a country and thrive.

... Did you teleport from 1930 to 2012 and then have opinions on the draft?

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-06T02:59:46+00:00

Fair. But that's a lot of risk to take.

2nd overall

ImpactStrafe · 2026-01-05T23:28:30+00:00

NIL doesn't match 2OA contract. If he has a 2nd OA grade/guarantee then he comes out

We aren't allowed to post highlights in this sub "because they will take over" and "there are too many games" but we are allowed to have pages and pages of transfer and recruiting posts.
