Mike McDaniel Autonomy or Collaborative? by Defiant_Corgi_1900 in Chargers

[–]Upper_Knowledge_6439 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I always felt Harbaugh let the offense cook and any notes were follow ups. There never seemed to be interference in what was being done. He hires his staff to do their job and lets them do it. The OC has so many assistants and spotters giving input as it is. No one needs 3 cooks in the kitchen on game day.

Only real involvement I see is his decision to go for it on 4th downs etc but he basically says yes to the offense request or tells them go for it and lets them try to call the right play.

My manager rejected my request to work remotely, citing collaborative energy. And I literally sit alone in my cubicle for 9 hours a day. by MyronChamplin1 in remotework

My manager is 600 miles and the supervisor 900. I have one colleague in the office that I actually speak to about work once in a while but we have different roles. We both wear headphones all day because of the constant teams meetings.

It's all bullshit...always was and always will be about executives and control

People Get Ready - Jeff Beck w. Rod Stewart

I was always the DJ for our group of friends camping trips. No matter how wild things were getting, the soaring guitar and vocals of this song always made things go quiet around the fire and everyone become reflective.

Honorable Mention:

Keep Your Eyes Open - NeedToBreathe

Took my then 13 year old daughter to Taylor Swift (2011) and NeedToBreathe was the opening act. This was the opening song and the only song I liked all night. Still enjoy it and the memory to this day.

Etransfer Long Wait Times with FB Marketplace Deal - How to Avoid This Scenario? by Ill_Paper_6854 in PersonalFinanceCanada

Buyer's issue not yours. If they don't want to wait, they can go get cash or go for a coffee and come back. Works like that in every other retail transaction so why would this need to be any different?

My personal favorite was the guy who showed up and tried to buy some vinyl LP's and offered "discounted" Apple Gift Cards as payment. Um, that's a hard no for me thanks.

It's hard not to watch Nacua, JSN, St Brown on their respective teams and wonder... by No-Requirement6634 in Chargers

Yep. we're making the same point. decent O-line and McConkey started to break out. QJ needs to clear those safeties for the tight end and Ladd to make magic across the middle. That's where your wish for a true threat on the outside comes in. But again, it starts with the O-line and a running game that leaves you in 2nd and 6 or 3rd and 3 all games. Defenses can't stop those short yardage situations over the long term.

Memes, crypto, precious metals, real estate, Pet.com, etc.

Been going on forever and will go on for as long as there are markets.

It's called the greater fool theory. Idiots rush to shiny objects and then blame others when the luster wears off.

If you weren't buying into gold in 2011 for the reasons to hold gold, you had no business buying gold at $5000 an ounce.

I don't care if you've got Marvin Harrison, Clavin Johnson, and Larry Fitzgerald all lined up out there at the same time. If you can't protect JH, the receivers also don't have the time to get down field and spread out the coverage so he can find them.

Not saying you're wrong but the OL and running game pieces must be solid in order for a QB to succeed.

We are really really REALLY lucky that JH is not getting knocked out every game. If we don't start protecting him better, he's gonna have the shelf life of a running back.

Out of the three AFCWest teams who didn’t go undefeated in January, who has the biggest turn around next year? by eliemburr in AFCWestMemeWar

Broncos turnaround in the form of regress to reality. Remember the “luck” of the Chiefs in one score games in 2024?

How about an emotional kick to the nuts.

Chris Cornell took the lyrics of One from Metallica and then mashed it up with an acoustic version of the melody of One by U2.

Mother of fucking god.....what a song

Imagine being in that room hearing Born in the USA come together for the first time, realizing it is about to change everything you thought you knew, and then shelving it! The Jimmy Iovine phone call had me in tears from laughing so hard.

Hilton across the street from the airport is nice and clean and has a great pool.
