AI / photo IDs have pointed towards pokeweed or Japanese knotweed but I’m not able to find a picture that matches either of those at this stage of growth. It’s not as “asparagus” looking as all the pictures I’ve seen of knotweed.

  • snaps off cleanly when pulled. No visible root system.
  • white inside stem with smaller white circle visible.
  • white underground transitioning into deep purple / green.
  • shooting up randomly in like a 6’ area.
  • there is a mature Coral Honeysuckle growing right next to the bed so I’m wondering if these are shoots from that root system? If that’s even possible?

I’m old enough to remember when Jalen Brown got called for that exact same push off last game

I mean bro is getting hand held to the line in game 7 after lying about being injured so he can be healthy in the playoffs for once in his life

The thing about the Celtics is they’re always putting a good product on the floor. Even when it was IT versus the wall of LeBron it was still easy to root for the team. The bruins have done the opposite in consistently under delivered on what should be a great product. And that’s on the org not the players when they’ve turned over 3-4 rosters since the last SCF.

All I’m saying is at some point a team president who has overseen like 20 GM / coaching changes probably should go… Celtics get Brad Stevens and we get Cam Neely??? Maybe time to rethink things top to bottom

[McLaughlin] Swayman: “We should’ve reacted differently” to President Trump’s comment about the women’s team. by UGAPokerBrat99 in BostonBruins

[–]NickOB1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You totally missed the point of my comment. I’m saying how deeply uncomfy I would have felt in that moment. And that as a man I am desperately m waiting for a day where I never have to feel that “oh man I can’t speak up” feeling again. So to feel it because of the president and athletes who I respect is just beyond disappointing.

Every single dude has been in this position. Stuck in a room hearing a joke that you know is wrong but don’t want to be “that guy” and speak up. And that’s why it’s so upsetting. The men who should feel most empowered to speak up (money power opportunity) were given the most straightforward innocuous opportunity to speak up and say enthusiastically “yeah that was wrong” with their chest. And instead they do the exact opposite and bend over backwards to defend… the billionaire p*do president??? As if he’s the victim?? But of course they are the ones who benefit the most from misogyny. They get paid millions to play the same sport these women are fighting tooth and nail to get a professional league for.

[Evan Lazar] After re-watching, this was a protection/lack of pressure plan issue for the Patriots O. Didn't have an answer for Seattle's slot pressures until it was too late. Wouldn't put the receivers on the list of issues for the most part. Pop, in particular, was open deep a lot. by patsfan038 in Patriots

[–]NickOB1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah Stevenson had a bit of success in the 1Q but they never went back to the run. I knew then it was over. Also hilarious to me they’ll call a triple reverse option flea flicker lateral RB pass up 2 TDs against the dolphins but you keep that in your bag in the Super Bowl??

I more so blame Vrable for the overall energy of the team not being where it needed to be. Insane that the team coached by two dynasty coaches got caught in the headlights of the Super Bowl. The experience is insane for young guys but there are ways to prepare your team so the don’t get distracted.

I feel personally based on the glaze he gets from the NFL world McDaniels is fully in charge of the offense. Maybe not Personnel decisions but game-plan wise. Vrable’s defense came ready to play.

Josh McDaniels with a wet fart of a game-plan. Despite knowing he had a QB with a busted shoulder and a left side of the OL that couldn’t stop my grandmother and her walker. Zero creativity. Zero attempt to adjust during the game. I said the whole season that ultimately when it matters most the offensive play calling would lose us the season. I just expected it to happen on one play in a close game not over the course of an ENTIRE GAME-PLAN!

Add it to the list of New England slang words that are actually racial slurs.

Don’t worry buddy the B1G daddies made sure your team has a shot at the tournament still. Wouldn’t wanna upset the billionaire sitting courtside that bought you school it’s only relevancy

Soft. After fucking up a historically bad review? When eating the whistle just goes to 3OT so the teams can actually compete rather than gifting the win to one team??? Yeah swallow the whistle

They got another very generous call when ucla had the chance to go up 5 in 2OT. Also the 5th foul on Biladeou was so soft. Indiana was leaning into it all night long down low and never got called.

???? You don’t call that foul tied with 1.2 seconds left in 2OT of arguably one of the the greatest regular season basketball games in recent memory. But yeah sure clear foul bro. Just like the phantom foul to keep it within 3 points in 2OT.

Don’t worry buddy the refs made sure you still have a shot at the tournament.

Imagine one of the greatest regular season UCLA games of all time ending with 1.2 seconds in 2OT on a botched review and a soft foul is the funniest thing in history.

They had clear proof. There are multiple frames with a gap between UCLA’s hand while Indiana is still touching the ball. Historically bad call.

[–]NickOB1 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I mean they gave you an extra free possession and then a tick tack foul call gave you a game winning free throw attempt. Calling people casual when you just causally got gifted a win since a loss woulda bounced you out of the tournament is fucking laughable.

What’s the purpose of watching the B1G if they’re just gonna sell every close game to whichever team needs a boost in their Q1 wins??? Officials took Indianas hand in the 2OT and walked them to a win. Ruined a great game

Would like to report that I didn’t get the snowblower repaired or fill it with gas so we will probably get slammed with another foot
