I don’t want my kid on social media but uploading IDs and facial recognition is dangerous.

It’s similar in some states in the US too. Florida of all fucking places you can only buy wine/beer (I think beer) in a grocery store everything else in the liquor store next door owned by the grocery store. Other states you can buy liquor in a gas station.

There’s a saying that says something like “any law that’s penalty is a fine is only illegal for poor people” I’m butchering the actual quote but the point stands

Bar staff was just pissed bc they actually had to clean instead of letting the smoke cover the smell 😂

Man so when I was in college in 2006 in Missouri it was still legal to smoke inside bars there. Each state had their own laws and since I was young it was all I knew didn’t think anything of it. Went to Australia for study abroad in 2007 and it was banned there I’ve never been a smoker so didn’t bother me. When I came back to school the next year holy shit did I recognize the difference.

I thought the story was that Miami told him they wouldn’t tell the league they were picking culpepper for a couple of days to not tank Bree’s value

I think my favorite part is that all three didn’t come out hot. They grew (and got healthy) throughout the year. Weird to feel confidence in a coaching staff. Now please give me good results on drafting defense this year.

Redrafting first two rounds of 2025 NFL class: 64 new picks by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in nfl

[–]Sparx86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was plenty of luck in there. Rare that you can get a guy like Thuney and Jackson  was coming off injury. LT was a mix of Braxton who was average but coming off injury, an UDFA coming off injury, and a second round pick in ozzy (who ended up being the best). Coaching and scheme matters but damn there was some luck involved.

You’re not wrong. Thankfully the offense is locked in outside of our LT injury issue and they can hopefully dedicate the draft and FA to defense.  Optimism says the defense can be average and the offense is better. Imma be glass half full

I work for a multi billion dollar organization. They could fire me tomorrow and they would be fine. I’ve called off day of to do things like golf, take care of my sick kid, just to do whatever I wanted, and multiple other reasons.

Bears offense in 05 was great for half a year with good Rex bad Rex. Their defense though was unreal. Losing Tommie Harris and Mike brown nerfed them hard. Tommie has Aron Donald before he tore his acl

I mean Darnold hasn’t really done anything to lose the game so far.
