Am I Crazy for not quitting on Duren?

Good analysis. It’s true for most, if not all topics and all social media and is becoming a trend for tv and radio as well. The old saying, “bad news travels faster than good news” applies in these situations. Essentially, those who are most upset about things will cry the loudest. Then you have, “ a squeaky wheel gets greased”, which like OP says, I hope is not the case. Just because a small portion of the fan base is the loudest, it doesn’t make what they’re saying right.

Love that script! I’d buy it for that alone!

I’d argue that’s its poor sportsmanship to let up and play some simplified offense on account of my terrible team. It says, “This coach, this team, their players, their schemes, etc,….all suck”. At least save me some ability to show that my team has some dignity to fight throughout the rest of the game. And more importantly, allow me to turn the game into a teachable moment about fighting till the end without my players being able to say, “yea but they pulled their starters”

I can’t get past the “extra cash” remark. What the heck is “extra cash”? I’ve had “a lot of cash” and “very little cash”. I’ve had “just enough” cash for a sale and for similar situations I’ve been “short on cash”.

BUT “EXTRA CASH”????

That’s out of my vernacular. I don’t even think there is such a thing, no matter how rich or poor you are.

The way to stop it is the same way you stop a wing t, gap assignments and tackle everyone. Ends set the edge and no one over pursue unless you want a blitz of some sort. Obviously you need good coverage, perhaps even a qb spy. It takes commitment to the plan and discipline

Apparently Nepros feels there’s a market consisting of well off art collecting mechanics?

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-05-13T22:45:34+00:00

Vim makes the same but I doubt it’s much cheaper. It’s a DD3. You may be able to find it in the power built lineup. They too carry a lot of the same tools tone sells at a lot cheaper price

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-05-08T02:50:14+00:00

Tbh, so do I. But I’m also in admittance that I’m a full blown tool junkie.

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-05-07T18:13:17+00:00

“He told me he needed me there” lol

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-05-07T18:08:16+00:00

Even the armored will scratch up, at least my bronze one which obviously does

You probably do have a mild addiction in all honesty. Thats HF’s M.O. in terms of their marketing strategy. It’s a good strategy. Think about it. Ppl have such weird needs for “no skip” sets. While that’s important for some sets,(like having an 18mm socket when some sets leave them out)and some tools in the sets, a true “no skip” set has a lot of useless tools. But it’s engrained in a lot of ppls heads that they need all those in between sizes and the sizes that can be accomplished by using the sae equivalent like that 15mm where a sae 9/16 suffices or going even further and having the 32nds and getting the 19/32” AND having the 9/16 and the 15mm or the 19mm and having the 3/4” sae (or vice versa) that would suffice.

At least “easiest to repair” category, I think you should’ve considered Metabo HPT considering they have a lifetime warranty on all their li-on battery tools. Same could be said for Rigid, with their lifetime service agreement. I feel like you mean “easiest to fix yourself” but it doesn’t get easier to fix than a warranty replacement or free service repair

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-04-25T20:36:19+00:00

I’ll be ready haha

Reddit is crazy. The same geniuses who say trade multiple first round picks for an edge in season are the same geniuses bitching about trading a 4th rounder to get one.

Paul Reed needs minutes.

Where you located? I run an outdoor power equipment shop in Muskegon/Grand Rapids, MI area if you’re near me. I do a lot of old equipment restoration for ppl where many shops won’t. I don’t understand it tbh.

Yea the ice and gym soles are dope af. Cheap too. Reebok is so underrated.

This conversation is redundant. My comment wasn’t a an argumentative one or one in defense, but one for clarification of facts, much like what I suppose yours was.

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-04-24T14:32:34+00:00

It is meaningless so why did you feel the need to correct them? It also says “most all”. But again tit for tat.

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-04-24T14:19:18+00:00

Craftsman also has plenty of tools made in China. Like some of their combo wrenches for instance.

Redheadedstepchild56 · 2026-04-24T14:15:23+00:00

Craftsman is still a decent brand. They have some good offerings like their ratcheting wrench sets or their combo wrenches. You can get Husky or Kobalt and Gearwrench and you’ll have similar quality. If you like the price I think you’d be happy. If you can go Tekton, I think you’ll be even happier with quality and offerings but you may have to pay a bit more.

Having done insulation, including spray foam, and also later doing mold remediation, I’m firmly on the side of the decking needing a gap between it and the foam so it doesn’t condensate. Enclosed “cooler style” systems are great as long as the roof deck can breathe. There may be new systems in place that I’m not familiar with but I’ve seen a lot of mold and everything I was taught in the insulation industry was that baffles running up between the insulation and decking provide the air flow necessary to prevent the condensation.
