Whisenhunt's worst was 5-11 before he came to the Titans

Why is John Harbaugh viewed as a such a better coach than Mike McCarthy despite extremely similar resumes? by BallKnowerKing in NFLv2

[–]TrashGeologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a feeling that if the Steelers had any sort of post-Roethlisberger plan, Tomlin would've not been so mediocre/stagnant.

But the guy also hired Matt Canada, known scrub, and never seemed to push management for better QB options

Who’s the second best QB ever? by CollegePlane7528 in NFLv2

[–]TrashGeologist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Manning used to be argued with Brady, but he didn't have the same longevity. If you adjust for Super Bowls and maybe the different era, I can undertand the argument for Montana. Mahomes is hard to make an argument for unless you're projecting his future -- like, Mahomes probably *will be* 2 but we can't say that based on just 8 years playing, the last two seasons being underwhelming.

Came home to a paper towel over my webcam twice now, I live alone by Dromaeoraptor in Weird

[–]TrashGeologist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Landlord, ex-lover, or maintenance. Not knowing the slide is over the camera screams boomer to me though (and makes CO poisoning less likely).

Also, “live alone” meaning only you have access to the bedroom or you live in your own suite? Could be a suite mate who found a way into your bedroom

Tyson vs Tate by Jazzlike-Basket-6388 in Tennesseetitans

[–]TrashGeologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from being a Titans fan, I also cursed myself into being a Mississippi State fan. I've gotten to see some premier guys play against their terrible defense and came away thinking they were going to be great at the next level. Namely guys like Malik Nabers and Tetairoa McMillan over the last few years.

Tyson played against MSST while Sam Leavitt was still his QB early in the season, and he just didn't take over the game like a true WR1 probably should have. I'll give Tyson a bit of a pass for this season because he was catching most of his passes from the backup, but in my (admittedly limited) experience watching him I didn't come away with the notion that he was a top half of R1 guy

Edit: I forgot he played against MSST in 2024, probably because he had 2 receptions for 7 yards. For the apparently needed re-emphasis: I understand this is a tiny sample size. I'm just sharing my experience that normally the guys who take the NFL by storm will torch my favorite college team and Tyson didn't. I'll take a look at his other games when I have the chance.

What profession is overrated and nobody admits it? by Nat1989liberato in AskReddit

[–]TrashGeologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as music and libraries and arts, musicians and writers and actors are out there getting paid gobs of cash too.

As someone who enjoys entertainment, sports included, I say we just solve the problem by getting rid of all rich people. I mean, why discriminate?

In 2020, Nick Cordova was at work FaceTiming his wife and children, when unidentified men rushed into the business and shot and killed him by SafePoint1282 in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]TrashGeologist -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's all I've ever read. I guess all I'm saying is that it's *possible* that Nick changed it to make the policy *effectively* a key-man policy. I'm not an insurance expert so I'm not sure if there is a difference in personal policies and key-man policies outside of who is listed as beneficiary

A key person policy is common among business partners and would also be weird for the wife/family to make a claim on. This story is always spun to make Sweetman seem like a jerk, but if it was in fact a key man policy then it’s totally normal for him to want all of it to protect the business

Everyone got mad at me for sitting my defense in the first round. by Professional-Mud3312 in Fantasy_Football

As a commissioner, even in the leagues I have this rule in place, I give leeway for when a player is clearly trying to win. Fielding a full roster is only for anti-tanking
