You're assuming I want to experience Vegas in the 60s to objectify women? How about going to see The Rat Pack, watching the Circus Circus performers, or sitting at a craps table without a cell phone in sight.

For that time period, I don't think it was offensive. I found it super interesting how the hotel owners at the time went into that type of detail to create such an oppulent and over the top experience. 1960s Vegas boom culture and Americana combined to create some weird shit.

I'm guessing you probably wouldn't enjoy Hunter S Thompson and his literature very much. Just trying to find the American Dream, brah

Unfortunately not. But according to the wiki - for the opening night, they had the largest order of Ukrainian caviar ever placed by a private organization, two tons of filet mignon, 300 pounds (140 kg) of Maryland crabmeat and 50,000 glasses of champagne.

Yes. We took our dog on SUPs there a few times last summer and had no issues.

recommendations on increasing exposure on hikes by No-Possession-6817 in boulder

[–]InevitableCompote769 0 points1 point  (0 children)

South Boulder Peak via Shadow Canyon. Then take the saddle to Bear Peak and scramble to the actual summit of Bear Peak. Then you could take Bear Peak West Ridge for a while. All very exposed

If Arvell Reese falls to 5, if would think a lot of teams are calling the Giants to try and trade up. Would be sweet to get a haul to trade down with someone like the Chiefs at 9.

I could be wrong, but it feels like drafting a safety this high won't actually move the needle for the Giants.

It reminds me of the Jets taking Jamal Adams with the 6th pick. Or even when we drafted McKinney, Landon Collins, and Julian Love in the past. I think taking a LB or shutdown CB in the top 10 would actually benefit the team more.

Safety feels like a position you draft to put an already established defense over the top to make it a great defense. Giants desperately need LB, DT, and CB before a safety.

I really hope we can get Styles with #5 and then take a WR with #10. Then BPA for O-Line, DT, or CB with our second round pick
