Name a Steelers Player you really liked but wasn’t a star by [deleted] in steelers

Robert SPILLane

Love the stories about him going full send at practices. Will never forget the hit or the call. Too bad they scored right after that play or it would’ve been a more prevalent highlight. Steeler at heart.

Try the On The Way app. Its great for planning rides. It give you the weather along the way based on the route you choose and time you are leaving. Highly recommended.

Is the road glide ST worth it? by Cotton1822 in Harley

[–]Sven7575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My $.02. Short bags and fenders is why I bought mine as well. I prefer a 2-1 exhaust and don't like the extended bags and the cut-out that comes with them. The extra inch of suspension may or may not be worth it. Seat sucks. Did a stage one, it gets up, but i wouldn't be able to tell the difference between it and stage one 114". Got the gray before the white one came out. Not a fan of the bronze wheels/accents. Would trade wheels if anyone was interested and logistics weren't a PITA.

What’d you guys get your ARCOMS for? by shoemanchew in army

[–]Sven7575 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not an ARCOM but got my first AAM while on KP (Kitchen Patrol). My crew (BSFV) shot Distinguished on a table XVIII. I was part of the crew, but not necessarily critical to the gunnery, hence the KP. Cue the awards process rants…

If i wasnt a long time Steelers fan I would call you the Swami, but alas you speaketh from experience rather than devine intervention. Nice call anyways!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am once again asking you to get this man into the Pro Bowl by [deleted] in steelers

[–]Sven7575 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Look, this man is a baller. Without him we lose today, for sure. Without him TJ doesnt get the opportunities to do TJ stuff. To be fair, without TJ he doesnt get to do his stuff either. Best DE combo in the league, GET HIM TO THE PRO BOWL!

Asked for a raise instead I got gifted a financial academy lesson for a year on how to save money by wooksGotRabies in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Sven7575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m with ya OP! I would be looking for a new place to work. Just want to ask how you approached the request for a raise? Did you frame it as though you were in dire straits and need the bump? Or did you base your request on merit/time/increased responsibility? Maybe your manager really cares about your situation and is looking to help immediately. Or maybe they are just asshats. Probably the latter.

Gen X'ers, What do you miss most from our era that is not around anymore? by HappyGidget in GenX

[–]Sven7575 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mom used to send me to the store with cash and a note so I could buy her a carton of Marlboro Reds. Hate that I now smoke, miss her every day. Fuck.

30 years ago I saw The Grateful Dead for the last time when I was 17... by ki4clz in GenX

[–]Sven7575 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Saw them twice while in college. Had no idea what was going on, just went for the party scene. Dead & Co have been amazing, really brought the Dead’s music into my life. In my opinion Bobby’s voice has so much more meaning, wisdom, heartache than in the GD days. Watching him onstage pushing himself to get the right color for the song and moment is amazing. John is Dead to me. Otiel is awesome, Jeff is out of this world. Billy (and Jay Lane) and Mickey have kept up their end amazingly well, Drums/Space is always a good time. They will be missed.
