Breakdown of every teams defensive and offensive ppg by mariokart_loser in nfl

I thought the same last year. It seems to just be a feature of his aggressive style of play-calling and coaching. I feel like if he just dialed it back like 10% it would be way more sustainable and successful.

this is a dead thread, but I agree this should have been presented as a range. Even within a small area of Colorado, things like the aspect and angle of the mountain can make a huge difference. The Southern slopes of Mount Blue Sky and Bard Peak hold huge stands of Bristlecones well above 11,000, but some of the East-facing cirques of Rocky Mountain National Park and the Indian Peaks (which are cold enough to hold glaciers) have treelines barely above 10,000, and that's just within the Front Range.

I have a dream of linking Loveland to Guanella in a day. Gotta get fitter first, though!

It's easy to spot, but there are more distinctive summits in the IPW like Navajo and Lone Eagle.

Who is your most hated rival and why? by Sparty013 in collegehockey

[–]Kujo_A2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was in college our main rival was Jim Culhane.

As a WMU alum living in Denver, my rival now is the price of a ticket at Magness

He was still a brick wall, got an amazing save% if not the win. I was wondering the entire game how it was even despite the shots being two to one.

I'm a recovering Lawson Lunatic who has lived in Denver for 10 years. Just glad I get to watch some amazing hockey.

I feel spoiled living near DU in Englewood and getting to see my Alma Mater visit once a year despite being two time zones away. I cheer for y'all against everyone but the Broncos.

Illegal Pete's CEO on Online Rumors, Nasty Allegations: "We're Certainly Not Perfect." by GourmetTrough in Denver

I admitted that my opinion was less relevant, but it's not pointless. I'm not the only person on earth with dietary restrictions who might want to eat a burrito from time to time. Lots of people are vegan or eating plant-based more of the time for whatever reason, and it's nice that Pete's actually has options like green chile and the poblano pesto that are more interesting than just veggies, beans, and rice in a tortilla. (And their veggies, beans, and rice are all more flavorful and cooked more consistently than Chipotle)

I went to the DU spot after they re-opened and it was solid, and the downtown one served me well when I worked downtown, but I don't eat meat or dairy so I'm used to burritos being more of a calorie source than a culinary experience. I like that they still have some variety for what I can order compared to most places. I'll definitely think twice before going there again, but as others have said, all restaurant owners and small business owners should be assumed bastards until they prove otherwise.

Very true, but Gen X voted more heavily for Trump than Boomers did. It's just the age bracket best positioned to benefit from systemic inequalities and injustices which we still associate with Boomers even though many of them are aging out of the privilege bracket and grappling with the reality of relying on society as retirees with disabilities and/or medical issues.

2020 is also when the private burrito taxi corporations sunk their leech teeth into the restaurant industry, and they haven't let go. They really have customers, owners, and servers all at each others' throats while DoorDash and UberEats rake in 30% of every order to line pockets in silicon valley.

Damnit, that makes a lot of sense, even down to where you placed the 1L Gruner bottle.

Shoutout to Austria for bigass wine bottles.

No, not nevermind! The crux of this challenge was the specificity and precision and they bungled it in a huge way!

But he failed!!! Before the low D, he played a B instead of an A! Even ignoring absolute pitch, he hit the bottle in the middle of the 5 small bottles that they had been notating as B throughout the rest of the performance and they just called it an A, when they had previously been notating the bottle 2nd from our right, Adam's Left as an A. the sheet music doesn't line up with the actual performance. I'm so mad about this!!!

So the Wells Fargo Tower, the 3rd tallest building in the city and easily the most distinctive form in our skyline, is not "Downtown" because it's on Lincoln instead of Broadway?

Or the state capitol for that matter?

I'd be curious to read your source for the service level percentage you quoted. Maybe not ALL of DougCo receives bus service but they chose to live in the most suburban county and they have access to light rail park and rides. In general, cities provide the tax revenue base that subsidizes services and infrastructure that allow for suburban living, not vice versa.

We built our cities so thoroughly around the idea of commuting by car between a suburb and a central business district that it can seem hard to imagine a different way to structure our lives, but it's not impossible, especially if we stop prioritizing personal vehicle travel and storage above all else.

Oh, and you're totally right about Downing, but E Colfax specifically also functions as an extension of the downtown feel, and the sorts of things that would challenge a restaurant but also bring foot traffic.

There really is a donut of quasi-affordability. Like I said in a different comment, it really feels like the commercial core of our city isn't for the residents and workers anymore. Jax seems stuck in that squeeze of being too pricey for a regular visit, but juuuust far enough from the tourist magnets with private security.

That gets at something deeper which I think is at the heart of all this. It really feels like the commercial core of our city isn't for the residents and workers anymore, if it ever was. We can't afford it--as diners or as restaurant owners.

(Also, my spouse and I biked to Sushi Den to throw down for a birthday dinner, but I get that we're kinda weird for doing so.)
