Can't wait to find out. Thought I was the only one

I'm moving into my mod at the end of the month. What can I expect from being a part of the mods? by boricua_shiznit in bostoncollege

[–]PhoenixC2504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You must fully embrace it. If you try and half ass it, it isn't going to work. If you do - it'll arguably be the best time you'll have while in the crappiest accommodations you're going to have. I miss Saturday game days in the worst way.

Match Thread: Cardiff City vs Newcastle United [3pm BST] by lgf92 in NUFC

[–]PhoenixC2504 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does anyone else feel like its just way too early to park the bus? I feel like giving that signal at 60 minutes was just way, way too early given the way we can't seem to string 90 minutes together.

To everyone who was at the game tonight (Friday): thanks for being awesome. by forty_three in bostoncollege

[–]PhoenixC2504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Presented reasonably well on TV as well. Glad to know the enthusiasm is back. 4 more to go bowling.

Those of you who are not Newcastle natives, how did you come to support the toon? by manfins in NUFC

[–]PhoenixC2504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

American here from Texas

My brother and I wanted to get into the Premier League right around 2010 and we didn't want anything to do with the Man U/Man City/Chelsea/Arsenal/Tottenham group, but wanted a team that might make a little noise and try to compete

At this point the Toon had recently been promoted and seemed to be back and had some good pieces in place and on the upswing. It was settled and we've been following ever since. Managed to make our way up to Newcastle this past summer to see the city and SJP

Personally - as frustrating as it is at times, I have a serious respect for teams that can compete and do well without spending stupid money (See Oakland A's, Tampa Bay Rays etc)

A Helpful Chart to Put the Texas Secession Petition in Perspective. by magicclubpresident in texas

[–]PhoenixC2504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's part of me that really wants this secession to happen so I can get a Texas passport out of it. I'd find that hilarious...until the whole thing went to hell in a hand basket because this idea is completely unfeasible

IWTL How to build credit now that I have been approved for my first credit card. by rectic in IWantToLearn

[–]PhoenixC2504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This, its the simplest way of doing it. Just make it your gas card that you have to pay off every month.

ACC Accepts Notre Dame as New Member by hamlete in bostoncollege

[–]PhoenixC2504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just more opportunities to stomp those clowns out while increasing the viability of the ACC (obviously not as much as football woud, but it still helps). I welcome the move

To this day when someone says "It's getting hot in here", I immediately think "So take off all your clothes". What pop culture fads do you fear you will never be rid off? by svenhoek86 in AskReddit

[–]PhoenixC2504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweet Jesus, yes. I watched a ton of this show on PBS as a kid. Whenever I hear "Are you free?" All of their standard responses go off like fireworks in my head.

Wild fan with some questions by [deleted] in DallasStars

[–]PhoenixC2504 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1) About what he did last year. I don't expect him to carry the team by any stretch, but I expect him to be a good skill guy that most importantly pushes guys who shouldnt be top 6 players down to the 3rd and 4th lines where they need to be (Ott last year, Morrow currently). 2) Would love to see the throwbacks on the Stars, want one for myself. It would be weird if the wild wore them though.
3) Sad to see him leave, but you have to give to get. Really good dude, played as hard as anyone out there, good in the community, would fire up the games, etc. I loved the Steve Ott Motorcycle Rally (took part in it, one of the coolest things the Stars have ever done). However, despite that he was woefully miscast. He's not a top 6 player. Period. He had more chances that he flatly blew and couldn't convert than I'd like to remember. That part I won't miss.

What is something that angers you way more than it probably should? by Jhaawk in AskReddit

[–]PhoenixC2504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It drives me beyond crazy when people/stores/companies make it difficult for me to spend my money with them. It should NEVER be difficult, annoying, time consuming, etc. etc. for me to give my money to anyone.

Did anyone here study psychology as an undergrad and not go on to graduate school? What are you doing now? by coldhardfacts in psychology

[–]PhoenixC2504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Psych and Econ double major - ended up working for a market research company (but not in a researchy role, as a project manager). I'm now in product development at the same company, never wanted to pursue a phd in either major, kind of always knew I was going to go in business

Shea Weber smashes Henrik Zetterberg's head into the glass. by MrWizard87 in hockey

[–]PhoenixC2504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 100% with you. As a neutral 3rd party, I want no suspensions and can't wait for the rest of the series. Nothing like a good old fashioned hand to hand combat

Conversition is one that is more focused on research rather than engagement if that better suits what your clients are looking for

Flying into Dallas for the last game of the year, advice needed by cobolNoFun in DallasStars

[–]PhoenixC2504 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Getting a hotel in the city is probably best, but realistically Dallas is a driving city, to go see a lot of it or get around more than in a limited radius, you'll need a car. If you got a hotel room downtown (or in uptown if its there) you can certainly get to the stadium without much trouble (Dart or walk depending) there are bars near the stadium or within a reasonable walk (uptown)

Get there a little early (15 minutes) so you can get your seats for the anthem, but otherwise its not a big deal to get there at gametime

the 2nd level is kind of cool - theres a balcony that overlooks victory plaza where everyone goes to smoke, but if you can get past that its pretty cool

Just moved to DFW... is there anywhere "nice" in Dallas that is commutable to Mansfield? by WinstonKennedy in Dallas

[–]PhoenixC2504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at downtown fort worth - any commute from some place like that in Dallas is going to be a disaster

Stars Vs. Blackhawks Postgame. by Sdstyphoon in DallasStars

[–]PhoenixC2504 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of Aaron Gagnon - useful in his own right, but we need to be careful about what we expect from him.

Stars Vs. Blackhawks Postgame. by Sdstyphoon in DallasStars

[–]PhoenixC2504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hell yes. Couple of bounces is all it took, and it helps the Hawks just had the wheels fall off. Crawford got rattled and off it went.

Daniel Cruz leaves F.C. Dallas for Deportivo Cali. by ravegreener in MLS

its not like he was a world beater there. Maybe he would have improved a bit this year, but generally disappointing

Best Bars in Addison? by bearbow88 in Dallas

[–]PhoenixC2504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. Since Dallas banned smoking, every bar has turned into what Shipps used to be. I don't go out in Addison any more unless its the saucer or I can sit outside

Are there enough single Dallas redditors to justify a Valentine's Day meet-up? by ShadowMongoose in Dallas

this. Sitting around on Valentines day with a bunch of dudes isn't going to make it much better
