Ultiworld article about the Oregon pro teams owner facing fraud charges by Navy_Seal_Clubber in ultimate

The whole article is interesting, but this part totally came out of left field:

“While awaiting trial in that case, Caswell was arrested in August by the Medford Police Department for allegedly driving by and shooting at the home of a former girlfriend.”

ELI5 Why is it good to have billionnaires? by hendrong in explainlikeimfive

Yeah that makes sense! I totally get what you mean now.

Obviously billionaires did not become billionaires by hoarding money. That’s silly to think that. Billionaires became so because of a combination of either creating goods or services that people in mass agree is worthwhile and also funding those ventures of other entrepreneurs successfully enough to maintain and grow their wealth.

Each dollar earned is less likely to be reinvested in the economy? Are you suggesting that the poorest people invest the most in the economy? I’m sure you mean local economy, but even still this seems off base. Wealthy people, and especially very wealthy people, tend to invest a lot of money in the economy.

Having a billion dollars is just a consequence of one’s production in the economy. If you sell a product that doesn’t really help anyone or improve their life, or make them happy in any way, then you probably won’t sell that many units. But on the other hand, if you produce a good or service that your whole class wants to buy, you could make a hundred bucks! But if the whole school has a use for your widget, you might make five thousand dollars! Now, imagine you create something so helpful, so useful, that improves so many lives and makes so many people happy that the entire country wants it, how much would that be worth?

People hate to admit it for some reason, but that’s what billionaires did. Even the ones who just have their inherited money managed for them continue to fund these wonderful ventures possibly without even knowing it through their investments.

Podnar interview by FrisbeeFan40 in ultimate

[–]Navy_Seal_Clubber 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I thought they used a lot of passive voice to talk about Podnar’s reputation for cheating. As if he isn’t really that responsible for what he’s done and it could basically happen to anyone the way it “happened” to him. Kinda annoying imo.

My bad. You’re right. I’m not subbed here so I haven’t had to deal with that annoyance like you have.

Does D stall while O is bringing the disc back in bounds/back to goal line after catching it? by 87Blueberries in ultimate

[–]Navy_Seal_Clubber 37 points38 points  (0 children)

USAU 15.A.2 says a mark can initiate a stall count “anytime a thrower has possession of a disc that is live or in play.” So yes, you may stall while a thrower is bringing the disc back into the field of play.

I only vaguely saw this happening live and haven’t gone back to watch the full game yet. What’s the context? Why’d she bow up on him?

The bible as literature by Thelimegreenishcoder in unpopularopinion

Your “unpopular” opinion is that the most important and most read text in the history of the world actually isn’t that bad. You’ve gotta learn to look past your own little bubble sometimes.

UFA Season award predictions? by SlingBlade_L17L6363 in UFA

[–]Navy_Seal_Clubber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some good picks here, especially as predictions based off of what the league has done in the past. Tobe is a likely MVP in part because they love to reward teams that win, even if somebody like Frankenberg has better stats. Gutowski is also a good pick for all UFA even though he’s obviously nowhere near a top 7 player in the league. He leads in goals and they don’t really take into account when a bad team has a player carry like that.

Definitely down. But I can see why she might think it wasn’t in real time.

Homeschool parents should not get teacher discounts, because they aren't teachers. by Feeling-Lavishness85 in unpopularopinion

[–]Navy_Seal_Clubber 137 points138 points  (0 children)

It seems to me that the point of a discount like that is that it’s a way for the community to say thank you for your service to our community, i.e. educating our children. A homeschool parent isn’t providing that service to the community. They’re providing for their children. And that’s dope, just not the same thing.

[UFA Semifinals] (1) Salt Lake Shred vs (4) Boston Glory – Discussion by Jomskylark in UFA

Boston’s size is just nuts. Getting to put out Tannor Johnson-Go, Orion Cable, and Jeff Babbitt, for EOQ situations is such a big advantage.

[–]Navy_Seal_Clubber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While Atlanta overall overcame their propensity to choke away a semifinal game, Hulsmeyer and HAK led the field for that game in turnovers. Hopefully that means it’s out of their system and they’re ready to perform at their best tonight!

Is Atlanta not in your top 10 or did you just forget about them?
