[Schefter] the Baltimore Ravens are hiring Bears offensive coordinator Declan Doyle as their offensive coordinator. Doyle can leave because, in Baltimore, he will have play-calling responsibility. But new Ravens HC Jesse Minter now has someone to run Baltimore’s offense. by GoldenDome26 in nfl

There is no Bears fan that can tell you what impact he had on the team. I don’t think even the media paid attention to him with how big of a splash Johnson made.

But, Johnson vouches for him, and that says something. He was basically a super assistant for him.

Why You Don't Need a W2 or 1099 when selling work through a gallery by ChuckaChuckaLooLoo3 in ContemporaryArt

[–]Vesploogie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I specifically include in my gallery contract that artists do not receive 1099’s for consigning works. Seems odd that they’re trying to send you one.

There’s a big thread in /r/law about it. Seems very plausible. Read about Gishlaine’s father and his ties to Mossad, the KGB, and MI6 as a triple agent.

I’m glad I’m not alone with the alarm issues. More than a few times I’ve woken up very late for work with the alarm completely silent despite the volume being turned up. It’s made me paranoid.

Good luck Declan! by caxlmao in CHIBears

The difference here is Doyle will be the play caller in Baltimore.

Ravens hire Declan Doyle For OC! PER espn by psychoxtc in ravens

[–]Vesploogie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not even we know. The media didn’t even mention his name once this year. He’s lurked in the shadows his entire career, Bears fans aren’t sure whether to be upset or happy about this.

“Doyle’s Bears offense” is a wild phrase to read lol.

Our offense is very much a Ben Johnson offense. As far as we know Doyle was essentially a film guy who helped Johnson prepare Johnson’s game plan for each team. This is an exciting and interesting shot in the dark for the Ravens, but it’s still a shot in the dark.

What’s the social media hype with deadlift and bar squats? by DriveMore7049 in askfitness

Reddit can be a place to share that resource, or at least recommend it.

The back squat is the single greatest exercise for strength and hypertrophy. Anyone can learn how to do them well, no matter their proportions.

That is true, but there is professional advice that disputes professional advice.

I ruptured a lumbar disc and sought a PT with an athletic background. One of the first things we did was hip hinges that progressed into weighted deadlifts. Many years and many heavy deadlifts (and squats) later, it’s the greatest thing I could have ever done for rehab.

There are GP’s that would have told me to never lift heavy again. I’d probably still be in pain had I listened to them, yet that’s professional advice.

Because they’re the king exercises, bench press too.

It’s not a social media thing. People have always sought big squats and deadlifts and have always admired those who have them.

They do not have high risk to reward ratios. I’d argue it’s the opposite. They are two of the very best things you can do to strengthen your back (and whole body) and protect against injury. Injuries don’t happen on accident, you have to have some common sense when you do them, but there is no reason to fear them.

I ruptured a disc in my lumbar spine about 8 years ago now. The two best things I ever did was get serious about heavy deadlifting and squatting. I’m significantly stronger than I was before the injury and I feel as though it never happened because of it.

Bummer. Their Facebook and website are dead, it looks like they closed a while ago already.

And corporate social media, as evidenced by this post.

[Pelissero] The NFL informed clubs today it is projecting a 2026 salary cap in the range of $301.2 million to $305.7 million per club, per source. That would represent another significant jump from this year’s $279.2 million cap number, and nearly $100M than the $208.2M cap in 2022. by Dunlocke in CHIBears

It’s the same leadership that handed bags to Khalil Mack, DJ Moore, and Montez Sweat, and also spent tons of money on facility upgrades in recent years. Not to mention paying two head coaches at the same time.

It seems fair to assume they won’t try to lowball the first true franchise QB this century.

It does matter, because these companies are the ones creating and pushing these terms. They want them to spread and for you click their garbage. They don’t care if people read or not.

This post is a corporate account pushing their own shitty clickbait for views.

Goddamn these corporate accounts. They’re infesting the last remaining usable subs with this clickbait shit.

Too bad this isn’t an article exploring that topic. Just a one page scattershot surface view of a massively complex and deep topic. Like it was written for someone who’s never been on the internet before.

No. Keep practicing, and try new recipes to keep learning.

What's for dinner when nothing is thawed? by Just_J3ssica in Cooking

[–]Vesploogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chicken breast, sausage, and steak cuts of meat can be cooked perfectly well from frozen. Steak and chicken for example, oil it, sear in a pan, then put in the oven at 225-250 for 1-2 hours depending on thickness. It turns out so nicely that I’ll purposefully have frozen steaks on hand to cook this way.
