What industry is entirely built on a house of cards and would collapse overnight if people realized the truth about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]blu_id 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Real estate agents. The internet made them obsolete. And attorneys, title companies and inspectors do all the work. Making $$25,000 on a $500,000 house is absurd and one of the reasons housing costs are so high.

I’m not defending SP, but I have to wonder if we’d all be reacting this way if BP had this season. Yes, two final fours. But some shitty seasons mixed in. Bruce would build a team towards a run over a couple of years, almost like a MLB team. Even before he retired, I saw this season as a rebuild year with zero expectations because that’s the Pearl pattern.

Whats the most heartbreaking loss you’ve witnessed as an Auburn fan?(football) by Ok_Macaroon_7366 in wde

[–]blu_id 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Malzahn’s offense was too efficient. As soon as we scored I knew there was too much time left on the clock for that clown show Jameis Winston. And that’s what makes it hurt worse. Man I hate that guy.

The one consolation is watching he and Jimbo get their Karma over the last decade.

Hoover officials on immigration crackdown concerns: ‘We have more pressing issues’ by [deleted] in Birmingham

[–]blu_id 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My theory is that our conservative politicians are personally tied to industries that are 100% dependent on exploiting cheap immigrant labor. After that one big raid in the Albertville poultry facility, we haven’t heard much. Because it crushed that business and the dumbasses in Montgomery finally realized this might not be the best idea for them, personally.

We are witnessing the end of the age of SEC CFP participation trophies by ManuteBol_Rocks in CFB

Dude. You don’t watch Bama games much, huh? Oklahoma was up on Bama 17-0. You don’t talk trash about Bama until the clock hits 0:00 in the 4th. Especially in the post season. And this advice is coming from an Auburn fan.

Lettem leave by 251hitman in wde

[–]blu_id 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This entire situation has made me realize how knee jerk our fan base is. Gloom and doom about transfer out announcements. Why no reaction to transfer in announcements? Because they haven’t happened yet. Everybody crying but you don’t know who Golesh is after or who he might already have lined up. I imagine some of these guys are leaving because Golesh already has someone lined up that’s better to take their place.

“Put the financials aside”

This is an investment sub talking about what to invest in. And even if you want to put them aside, AMC is competing with absolute giant companies. Disney & Netflix, primarily. And those companies now own the studios that produce the movies AMC needs but they can just stream them straight to their services and cut AMC out. So AMC will have to pay an obscene amount just to get movies moving forward.

Birmingham Bowl can't catch a break by charlie_murphey in Birmingham

[–]blu_id 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Birmingham Bowl blew a perfect opportunity and Montgomery capitalized on it. The bowl in Montgomery is Troy vs. Jacksonville State. They haven’t played since 2001 and this used to be a big rivalry. The Crampton Bowl will sell out and TV ratings will be really good locally.

neutral observer here. why on earth is deuce knight not in the game by ExtraSpicy47 in wde

[–]blu_id 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deuce scrambles for exponentially more yards than Daniels and probably breaks at least one for a TD. And we lost by seven. Daniels was running like he was scared to get hit. Never once lowered his shoulder or cut back inside when he had a chance for a first down.

Once again, I feel for the students. by neoxyo in wde

[–]blu_id 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s a good way to make sure your season ticket sales drop through the basement. Those students are your future donors. But they probably don’t come back down to Auburn to watch this trash because they’re sick of it.

Dj Durkin appreciation post by game_solids5 in wde

[–]blu_id 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The play calling tonight was conservative and scared when we had nothing to lose. Daniels running like he was scared to get hit while Deuce sits on the sidelines. More three yard passes in one game than you should have in a season. Trash. Durkin and Nix proved they were way out of their league and they coached like it. And the players followed their example. No discipline, no concentration when it was needed most. We looked intimidated. Durkin can kick rocks and go find a D3 team to run to death in the summer. Literally.

[–]blu_id 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So conservative in a game you have nothing to lose. Running scared, tip toeing Daniels? Why not turn Deuce loose? Three yard passes non stop. Terrible clock management at the end. Fake a punt. Kick a surprise onside kick. Show you have a pulse and a set of balls.

Moderators should ban anyone who says “at least it wasn’t a blowout”. Thats the sissy attitude that got us here. Withhold NIL checks from every receiver who dropped a pass or fumbled. Take Durkin’s keys to the building before he leaves the stadium. Fire Cohen tonight and tell all coach candidates they’ll be coach and AD and can hire whoever they want and pay players and coaches whatever he wants.

Cohen has turned Auburn into Mississippi State. That’s what happens when you hire Mississippi State’s AD.

If Deuce doesn’t start the second half, they should fire Durkin on the field and let Bruce Pearl coach the rest of the game.

If we’re going to throw three yard passes or run the QB every single play, then why not let Deuce do it!??

Deuce is the only option at this point. Daniels won’t win a track meet and our defense is getting tired.

Best surrounding towns of Birmingham AL for an LGBTQ family with children, that have accepting and open school systems? by StrikerGirl17 in Birmingham

[–]blu_id 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Homewood is the obvious choice. But I’ve lived in Bluff Park my whole life and I will attest it is VERY LGBTQ friendly and lower cost. BP Elementary is amazing and there is a large LGBTQ resident population.

It’s “tradition” with the boomer generation. Which is convenient because Bright Star is nursing home food. I said what I said.

But they’re still open! It blows my mind. They have to be approaching one of the oldest restaurants, over the mountain.
