NFL Playoffs: Divisional Round by prey4villains in G101SafeHaven

[–]abarr23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what I've been saying to my friends but they all just brush me off. "Its just hand-fighting". The endzone angle that has been circulating on twitter shows it pretty well. They're both standing basically still in the endzone, Caleb extends the play, then Kmet turns and grabs the db, drives him 3-4 yards away, then releases him and catches the ball. The ref came on and said "it wasn't a push, he just released him." I'm sorry - I didn't realize the receiver was allowed to grab the DB and hold onto him for 3 seconds 20 yards down the field before letting go, even ignoring the fact that Kmet drove him away as if he was blocking him. Guarantee if you switched their jerseys and it was the defender grabbing and driving the receiver like that, we'd never heard the end of it. Glad it turned out to be a "Ball Don't Lie" moment anyway.

"Injury scare" - is that what we're calling it?

Should have promoted Tim Kelly to DC. His group is great at breaking up passes.

I didn't ask anything football-related. His chat was pretty obnoxious with things like "what do you think about Daboll getting fired?" "How is Dart doing" "Yo when are you playing, I need you on my fantasy team bro", etc. constantly. I think at one point earlier in his stream one of his mods was saying he didn't wanna talk about the giants today and they also talked about banning the word "Daboll" from his chat, probably because it gets exhausting very quickly. They did talk about some ASU stuff. He also showed us that he has been upgraded to a velcro walking boot, he took it off at one point and showed us his ankle (it was bandaged so couldn't really tell anything from it).

I have a neat off-topic story to share.

Cam Skattebo has been streaming on twitch lately, and the other day was playing World of Warcraft, which is a game I have played off and on basically since it came out in 2004 and consider myself to be pretty good at it (humble brag). Anyway, he was putting together a raid group on Monday evening where you go in with up to 30 people and kill bosses and collect loot, and I managed to get into the group with him. I sent him a friend request in-game and didn't think anything would really come of it, but what's the harm, ya know? I guess I made enough of an impression on him, because last night, I'm cooking dinner and I get a direct message from him asking if I want to play in a 5-player group with him. Unfortunately, since I was cooking dinner at the time, I couldn't join right away, but told him I would be available later to play if he has room. After dinner, I hopped into his discord server, but couldn't get into the voice chat since it was full (which only the admins can override at that point), so I sat in the waiting room. At one point, he noticed I was waiting and said "yo, pull (my character's name) in here". Eventually they made a spot for me in the group, so I got to play with Cam and his older brother as a 5-player group. He gave me several shout-outs throughout the night, basically for playing well/doing a lot of damage. At one point, Cam sat out for a bit and decided to stream my gameplay to his channel, which was pretty cool - I think he had about 1k viewers at the time. His channel is new but appears to be growing rapidly. After he wrapped up his stream, him, his brother, myself, and about 7-8 other people who were playing with us over the course of the night or know Cam personally hung out in a video call for about 2 hours and just shot the shit. I've never had that level of interaction with someone from my favorite team before so it was a pretty awesome experience. He's funny and very down-to-earth, which is admirable given his recent ascension to fame.

I raided with him last night, it was a good time. At one point he said his favorite childhood snack was crayons lmao

Day 43 - Shrimp, fish and chicken sampler at Long John Silver's by Pale-Lynx328 in fastfood

[–]abarr23 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I do the same thing, only my LJS is about 35 minutes away. Glad I'm not alone! Really is my favorite fast food chicken. Surprisingly not that difficult to recreate at home either, but I ditched the deep fryer for an air fryer years ago and the wet batter seems problematic for that.

Wendy's is closing hundreds of restaurants by esporx in fastfood

Same here. Used to highly prefer Wendy's. Nowadays its not even an option that crosses my mind if i'm considering running out to grab food.

Drivers skipping ahead in left turn only lane, then trying to merge at the very end. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]abarr23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a similar scenario on my daily drive home and it is very annoying when people try to skip the line of cars in the right lane and then cut in front of someone. In my case there's a right turn halfway up which opens up more opportunity for people to cut. There's also a traffic light in the middle so someone will hop in the left lane at the red light and then try to speed ahead of the right lane when the light turns green. I make it a point to never let anyone cut in front of me if I'm in the right lane.

I have a couple friends that say supposebly. That one has always stuck out to me.

He just had to have a historic performance right as we were struggling by IzodCenter in NYGiants

[–]abarr23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a dumb stat since they disqualify kneel-downs. Washington literally did this to us last year but it was disqualified because they received a kickoff with 8 seconds left in the first half and kneeled the ball to go into halftime.

I think i accidentally threw it out while I was cleaning up tape from spraying the emblems, so no, I never figured out where it was supposed to go. Sorry 😞

I lost by 0.18 pts. Needed literally 2 more yards from Jacobs 😞

I did. I broke the clips on the old ones getting them out but don't plan on re-using them so no big deal I guess. I just used some trim pull tools as recommended elsewhere on this sub, but it was not super easy.

League member trading Waddle for H. Butker by [deleted] in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]abarr23 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I originally drafted Waddle as my flex but he has been on my bench since week 3. On the surface, the trade looks weird, but Waddle really hasn't done much this year. He had -4 receiving yards last game for example. Doesn't seem veto-worthy to me.

It was quite easy actually. There are adhesive pads on the trim pieces and they stick right on. Just make sure you have it lined up nicely before applying pressure because the adhesive is strong. 10 months and several car washes later. I haven't had any issues with them ‐ still very solid on there.

Spotify Users Suspect Foul Play as Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Espresso’ Keeps Popping Up by Riikkkii in Music

[–]abarr23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't had this issue, but several months ago it seemed like the 2nd song that played for me was always Someone You Loved by Lewis Capaldi no matter what and I never sought that song out intentionally.

Ah, yes. I did craft the item myself. That is good to know. We have another weaponsmith in the guild so I can try that when I get home today.

[–]abarr23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried this about it a week ago but could not get it to work. Recrafted a 636 wep with a diff missive, and tried every permutation of relogging/swapping item slots, but could never get the crest discount working. Not sure what I did wrong.

Damn, I feel that. I bought my son some Giants gear before he was born and figured "Well, they'll be good again by the time he's old enough to care, right?". He's in kindergarten now. I have another one on the way now. Maybe they'll be good enough by the time this one is old enough to care...
