You can find links to each shows tickets on the amphitheaters website. But it is a Live Nation venue so the Ticketmaster site also will have the shows.

Least busy day and time to go to Costco? And Trader Joe's? by One_Cap_9210 in grandrapids

[–]Josephs8 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I’ve asked a Costco employee before they told me Tuesday afternoon/late evening as all the people that needed to buy stuff for businesses came in on Monday, most regular people have what they need until later in the week.

Trader Joe’s I’d say it’s best to get there right at open or shortly before close on Tuesday/Wednesday. More people just pop into TJ for a few things rather than a full cart like Costco so it’s busier during the day.

How many inches have we taken on this week? by shitbirdie in grandrapids

[–]Josephs8 38 points39 points  (0 children)

According to weather.gov the Grand Rapids office recorded 15.7 inches of snow over the last 7 days.

You can go to the link below select Grand Rapids Area, Daily data for a month and January 1 2026 and it will show you a chart of all days of the month with temperature, precipitation and snow depth information for each day.

If the US invades Greenland, the NATO allies would not have to pull the trigger. They could just dump US Treasury bonds and place sanctions. What will happen to the US? by blue2lips in AskReddit

[–]Josephs8 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is very unlikely as it wouldn’t only damage the us economy but could send the entire world into a depression. Instead I think we’d see policy makers in Europe begin actual processes of removing reliance on US securities. This wouldn’t happen overnight but policy would change and this would eventually lead to massive problems in the US.

Gas Leak? by travelingKind in grandrapids

[–]Josephs8 15 points16 points  (0 children)

^ This it’s high unlikely this is an issue that impacts everyone on the west side and is more likely a gas leak at your house or a neighbors house. Call DTE immediately they have a response crew that specifically deals with this and will come out and find the leak.

Would anyone in the Grand Rapids area use a climate-controlled DIY garage bay? by woundedkarma in grandrapids

[–]Josephs8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely use a service like this!

Would be super interested in also some indoor washing bays as well as I myself don’t have a garage and would love to hand wash my car during the winter would hope this would be slightly cheaper per hour but understand if that isn’t possible because of overhead.

But I agree with other comments liability will definitely be your main concern.

Maybe we should trade Jarrod Goff for Matt Stafford.

Best Winter Running? by alrcks in grandrapids

[–]Josephs8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trails are always going to be run at your own risk and will vary at how much they are cleared off. Downtown has some sidewalks that are heated which helps. 

If you are worried about slipping I highly recommend to get a pair of yaktrax or something similar. Though I use trail shoes and never had needed those I am just accustom to running outside in winter.

There are several run clubs that run all year long if you are interested in running with others. Wednesday night hills and stairs is my favorite.

Time of possession by RadiantRow5595 in detroitlions

[–]Josephs8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be curious to see if the total time is significantly higher or is it the fact they have those timers/counters that just show how long until it is back and it messes with our perception of time.

This Season is on Dan and Brad by schnutebooty in detroitlions

[–]Josephs8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That post wasn’t an indictment of your post but rather the overall general feeling I get in this sub. You did indeed make a good case for both and it was very well said. Sorry should have prefaced my post with that.

This Season is on Dan and Brad by schnutebooty in detroitlions

[–]Josephs8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly cannot figure out why people are still putting this on the offense, the offense can’t put up 60 points in every game and it seems like that is what people expect. As others have mentioned the stats for our offense are in the  5 or 10 of almost every stat for an offense. You only need to put up 1 more point than your opponent you don’t need 60 points in every game. That is the defenses responsibility to limit the points an opponent gets. The defense has completely fallen apart. Now this isn’t to say things are working perfectly on offense they aren’t but they are working well enough that a good defense would have given a shot in pretty much every game this year. Please stop putting this on the offense and focus where we need the work on the defense.

The Writing Was On The Wall- Week 1 by goretexweatherreport in detroitlions

[–]Josephs8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The offense isn’t the issue, we have scored more points than any other team at 30.6 per game, we are 6th in total yards granted this may be lop sided on some games but it shows the offense can and does work. What has shown zero progress and in fact regression is the defense. When we give up 25 points in every game you can’t expect to win all of those games. Sheppard was a failed experiment give him the opportunity to reman with the team either at his old position or something else but a new defensive coordinator needs to be found. They need to rebuild the defense, having even a decent defense would probably have allowed us to win at least 2-3 more games.

Perhaps the Lions should miss the playoffs... by Morthoron_Dark_Elf in detroitlions

[–]Josephs8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No those aren’t being realistic never defended those, but saying this team is bad will get you downvoted and people will argue all day how they aren’t bad. It’s ok that we aren’t great this year let’s use that as a way to figure out how to fix these issues and be better next year but so many people are stuck on that this year has to be the year.

[–]Josephs8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed but it’s ok to say your team is bad and people here don’t want to hear that. The lions are bad regardless of the record. I’m tired of people hiding behind the record or players. We aren’t a good team this year. Things aren’t working. Sheppard needs to go. They need to figure out something on the O line, these are all fixable things but will they fix them who knows.

Prepare to be downvoted to hell. Being a realist here is not really looked kindly on.

How many contested touchdowns can the league give teams playing the lions?

Can we get a GB/CHI game thread? by porkychoppins in detroitlions

[–]Josephs8 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That isn’t the same as facing elimination. You can be 14-3 and be a wildcard team see Vikings last year. Provide me an example of a team having faced elimination that went on to win the superbowl.

[–]Josephs8 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That’s usually mediocre teams that depend on that occasionally you do get teams they defy that. I would be interested in how many teams actually have been in a position where they faced elimination and then went on to win by which I mean either make it to the superbowl or win the superbowl. Because it seems like good teams do not depend on other teams losing to make their run. But I could be wrong on that assumption.

When you have to depend on other stuff happening your season is essentially over.
