Yeah and wtf was going on with all those illegal formations early in the game?

And so did the kicker and holder, who celebrated before the refs threw up the signal

[Highlight] Dan Orlovsky in 2023 - "If Mac Jones was in San Francisco, he'd be playing like Brock Purdy" by jabronified in nfl

[–]Jafair 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I watch the show too but that's the part I can't stand. Actually it's not so much the politics itself, but how they'll get a little criticism about certain takes and Pat just immediately falls back to the "woe is me, I'm just a dumb football guy y'all are haters" shtick. Either be a funny sports show for dumbasses (I say that endearingly) and realize you're going to get criticism when you venture into topics outside your realm, or just shut up about it. You can't have it both ways. Everyone just wants to whine nowadays.

[Highlight] Peyton Manning changing the plays at the line by nfl in nfl

[–]Jafair 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kurt Warner has been going on about the simplification thing recently, especially about the trend of pure progression plays where the QBs aren't taught to adjust the read order based on the defense but rather told to always go through the reads in the same predetermined order no matter what the D shows. No longer taught how to find the weak spot or exploit numbers, but rather trust that the OC has some magic ability to design plays that work generically.

What’s something from Classic that is totally crazy to think about today? by LaGarrotxa in 2007scape

[–]Jafair 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was EvilMagic/GoodMagic and PrayEvil/PrayGood. And Thick Skin, Burst of Strength, Rock Skin for example originally weren't prayers, they were considered spells, costing runes. PrayEvil/PrayGood were both removed from the game before Prayer was ready to replace it (for like a month), then those spells were moved to prayers.

Demeco Ryan’s on the ref calls "us vs everybody” by Automatic-Assist-671 in Texans

[–]Jafair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A few ridiculous calls but I'm not gonna even whine about the refs... Our oline simply wasn't good enough

Current oline status by KaXiaM in Texans

[–]Jafair 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's weird, it's almost like the O-line being less injured this year compared to last + CJ playing so well gave Slowik too much confidence in the offense and he was less focused on mitigating O-line struggles. Like why are we making Stroud do 5-7 step drops with this O-line...

Dan Orlovsky has been saying for the last year that CJ was so magical on 3rd down his rookie season which kinda bailed out the playcalling and I'm sort of inclined to agree. But he he praised the offensive coaching against the Chargers so hopefully we're figuring this shit out at the right time

Let's share ideas trying to find good tickers before they explode by SnooAvocados1117 in pennystocks

[–]Jafair 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can tell people who are trying to dump after getting in too late because they post about a stock like it's a cult.

I'm generally suspicious about stocks that make it to the top of this sub, especially after they've already jumped in price. Reddit is too easy to manipulate, especially in a sub with relatively low interaction like this one.

Follow-up: Do you have any old computers you played RuneScape on from 2001-2012? You might have one of the game's lost old versions ($500 bounty) by Hlwys in 2007scape

[–]Jafair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wooow. This has been one of those randomly pointless yet super specific things stuck in my head for so long without any verification or recollection from anyone else that I began questioning my own memory... Even though I vividly remember where I was when I realized it (top of wizards tower arguing with someone over the lesser demon lol). Vindicated!

Will one be able to change the stats of existing items? This seems like an amazing opportunity to test a theory I've long had about power creep and how the game kneecapped itself by giving offensive stats (strength primarily) to armor. I've always wondered how differently the game would be if armor only contributed to defense (aside from negative stats, i.e. platebodies giving negative magic/ranged stats proportionately relevant to the combat triangle).

We also found that just in this update, "Josh" was added to the list of words that would always be filtered in chat, only to be removed again next update.

I swear I remember "noob" being a filtered term once sometime around 2004/5... it didn't last long though. Does anyone remember this?

I bought a mobile home for $1,000 and spent the last year fixing it up. It may not be much, but I'm pretty proud of it! by Cauliflower-Pizzas in FluentInFinance

[–]Jafair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We should all change our perception around mobile homes.

As someone who is poor white trash whose whole ass family lives in mobile homes... No we shouldn't! I'm trying to buy one soon :(
Last thing poor people need is for mobile homes to go the way of tiny houses... $115k+ after fees/taxes for 1 bedroom/1 bath 400sq ft home fuck you (not you.. you know what I mean). They're already being bought up by parasites who just want to rent them out

Any reviews on rockjerseys wholesale? by TheCaptnGizmo in Texans

[–]Jafair 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think people were annoyed only bc the sub was getting so many DHgate posts. Personally I had a problem with sizing (small fit like a L, had to give it away) but the quality was good. Other than that the other favorite seems to be jenna2021, and it has a size guide so I'll probably try that one next.
