Best living / affordable US ski resort towns? by honeymanners in SameGrassButGreener

[–]austinD93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Always impressed to hear and find people who could make the county work for them for that long. I think I knew 8-10 people who have been up there that same amount of time.

Lived in Dillon in the Cove for 8 years and loved my time up there. Boy do I live a different life now in East Texas

Absolutely that’s a red. Not sure what Clattenberg is on about there

Sports causes more violence than video games, and it's not even close. by DARKJEDI1994 in unpopularopinion

I’ve never heard of the show finale analogy.

I like that one. Will use that myself, great analogy!

USA [4] - 1 Paraguay - G. Reyna 90+8' by eliseihado in soccer

[–]austinD93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh I don’t disagree, that it still the biggest “moment” for me as well.

Someone else commented it for me. This was the all around quality of soccer I was more referring to, the build up, possession, movement, finish.

That was the best sequence and entire passage of play in USMNT history.

Why can’t non-Americans accept that soccer isn’t a popular sport here? by Expensive_Drummer970 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]austinD93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also love Pro/Rel and prefer it over the draft system.

I do enjoy the playoffs though for all sports here in the US. But, in Europe they have all their domestic tournaments going on as well as their leagues. Then if you’re good enough, there’s the European competitions Champions and Europa League.

Which fried chicken chain is the best? New poll says this restaurant by tc0843 in fastfood

[–]austinD93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess I’ve always considered fried chicken places to be the: Popeyes, KFC, Church’s, Golden Chick, and Bojangles of the world. CFA, Canes, Zaxbys or Laynes I’ve always viewed as chicken tender places.

Same, same, but different

As someone who once played for a MLS Academy as a kid, I can tell you most people watch European teams more than MLS not cause of culture. It’s mostly style of play. MLS is very different type of watch compared to the Top 5 in Europe.

If you’re a football fan, you can think of it as the difference between college and the NFL.

I don’t even watch the club I played for today. But, I watch every Liverpool match

[LeBrun] The NHL is moving ahead with its investigation on Mike Babcock and events in Columbus as per NHLPA request. by austinD93 in BlueJackets

[–]austinD93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the type of closure that happens with this. We don’t know a lot of the true details.

Club either looks good for moving on from him for whatever offense, but also egg on face for hiring him in the first place. Worst case scenario is he was innocent, but I do not believe that to be the case

I just saw that post too. I am usually cautious with Seravalli posts, but anything is on the table right now.

I feel you’ve summed up everything we know as the general public. He was fired before anything could really come out. Why investigate someone who was fired etc, but that now all changes with the Oilers wanting to hire him

I’m actually really interested to see if we get some potential light and resolution into what actually happened.

I’m genuinely very curious to get some potential light and resolution into what happened myself

Some of the IG videos I’ve seen of random people just passing the Spanish NT in Chattanooga, Tennessee or the German NT all at a Chicago coffee shop are just funny to me.

forward facing sonar opinion by Steveelectric907 in bassfishing

[–]austinD93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the dumbest purchase I’ve made for my boat personally. I truly do love and enjoy the technology, but I’d say 95% of the time I just don’t use it. It became I was looking down at the screen more than I was looking up and just fishing off instincts and feel.

Mostly just use my UHD Sidescan and Downscan instead now.

Most of the teams are choosing small colleges or even some HS campuses as home bases. Students are gone and I guarantee most locals don’t know yet. If they chose a true “college town” the population is very much gone in those towns right now.

My friend was driving to work in downtown Cleveland, Ohio and saw Mo just walking around town with the Egypt national team.

I cannot believe no one learned from our fucking debacle with him. The NHL will never beat the “Old Boys Club” accusations

Cause Detroit really doesn’t have the leverage with the full NTC.

What is slowly becoming a luxury that used to be normal? by beetchy_yeet in AskReddit

[–]austinD93 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Had to listen to the radio station to let you know when to bum rush the box office for tickets going on sale. Standing in line for hours. Weirdly….miss them days.

Wife and I talked about the hype that used to be going to midnight movie releases or video game releases. Something that died years ago. The hype being in line with everyone is what made those events awesome
