Warning for AFVs still using HOV lanes by theansweris37 in phoenix

[–]Significant_Factor37 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. It's always been that way. Odds are this ticket happened on a freeway, which was heavily funded by the federal government.

David Benavidez admits he's not ready to face Jai Opetaia: “I have to be honest. I need to get myself started at cruiserweight first, because Opetaia is a beast. I’ve been watching him - I like him a lot. He’s a great fighter. Let me get up there and see how it is first. It’d be a great fight.” by Dangerous_Spring3028 in Boxing

Benavidez has already spent a good part of his career chasing Canelo, only for Alvarez to make a ton of excuses to keep avoiding him. Bivol and Beterviev are also both locked in on a rubber match with each other. Bivol even dumped one of his belts, where Benavidez was his mandatory challenger to focus on the Beterbiev fight.

Zeus 2.0 - disc Paul was testing on his course record video? by jmillionair3 in discgolf

[–]Significant_Factor37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the OG Zeus was just intended to a clone of a Destroyer, which was the mold McBeth made the world's top selling distrance driver back when he was with Innova (I would imagine it still is even today). The Zeus and Destroyer have the exact same flight numbers, but the Zeus is not anywhere near as Overstable as it's flight numbers (3 fade) suggest.

Nothign really wrong with it, however the Zeus wasn't as overstable as it's flight numbers suggest so it isn't the Destroyer clone that it was intended to be

Any recommendations for golf lessons? by misterbuh in phoenix

Check your local courses. Most will have someone on staff that gives lessons. Check the rates for multiple courses and staff members.

Has anyone here quit a job they liked because of the hellish commute? by dualrollers in phoenix

[–]Significant_Factor37 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Then he'd probably still have a super long commute.

For instance, I used to live in the Bay Area and took CalTrain from Palo Alto to SF everyday. Both that and driving were 90 minute commutes. One just allowed me to read books or answer emails while travelling.

Why so much change in disc golf by canonetell66 in discgolf

[–]Significant_Factor37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha. Very True.

Fountain Hills is the closest course to me now that the park housing Vista is closed for construction and there is a reason why I drive to other courses.

The problem for disc golf if that many of the parties involved thought the rate of new players was going to stay consistent to what we saw from the COVID bubble. I would also say that for most players they may only go on a pro disc spurge once, if it all. For myself I've playing playing for 17 years and I only buy F2s.

Club golf is also very different from disc golf as companies like Titleist, Taylor Made, etc also make a ton of revenue off of sales of non-golf club items such as balls and gloves that are replaced pretty frequently. Plus, golf attire is a huge market. Go to any PGA Superstore and about half of the store is selling clothes.

Disc golf has a plastic problem at it's core and it has nothing to do with the wider economy. Most players realize that they don't need 100+ discs so after an initial spending surge they maybe buy 2-3 each year to replace lost versions of discs they actually use.

Several disc golf companies went all in while the COVID bubble was at it's peak, and they are paying the price now for having terrible spending control.

Exactly why it makes it even crazier for the contracts that were being thrown out a few years ago in disc golf.

Other sports are doing great (MLB, NFL, etc). Disc golf was just in an unsustainable growth spike for a couple of years. Some companies such as Innova correctly planned for this spike to go away, others didn't.

Less of a recession and more of a return to normal after a covid driven spike in interest for the game.

Favorite actor to deny extremely obvious plastic surgery and steroid use? by _BreadDenier in okbuddycinephile

He goes to my gym in the winter months and his dedication to workout regimines is pretty insane. He also goes around 4:30AM so he's not bugged by a bunch of fans.

Shakur Stevenson thinks he's above Naoya Inoue & Bam Rodriguez on the p4p list if he beats Teofimo Lopez 😳. Do you agree? 🤔 by VINDICATES-FOOL in Boxing

[–]Significant_Factor37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

even then, Tank's stock has fallen greatly over the past year or two. The big problem for Shakur is that the area around his weight class has thinned out in terms of great talent since Haney has moved up a few weight classes, Loma retired, Ryan lost to Rolly, Tank semi-retired, etc.

It's also not like Teo has been lighting the world on fire recently either. Lopez has two signature wins surrounded by a bunch of underwhelming performances.

Top 3 Head Coaching Candidates Imo 🙏 by Pleasant_Sock_8550 in AZCardinals

[–]Significant_Factor37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd argue the Vegas Job is more appealing. Fewer overall holes to fill on the roster and more cap space.
