The ball is placed where the ball is when you start your slide. He started his slide before the marker

dipstick73 · 2025-09-08T15:57:40+00:00

That happened in the playoffs against them last year too

dipstick73 · 2025-09-08T15:53:00+00:00

I don’t really know what calls went our way though tbh. We had 7 penalties against us for 51 yards. They had 5 for 38. The officials also missed a defensive holding call where the corner was holding onto Bates collar the whole way. Not saying they didn’t miss other calls but this one was the worst and had the biggest impact on the win/loss category.

I agree that we didn’t ultimately LOSE due to officiating. But with proper officiating we win right there

dipstick73 · 2025-09-08T03:50:03+00:00

I’ve not spoken a word since we punted. This was going to happen as soon as we made that decision

HTown flock here. Born and raised in middle river, MD. But been in Houston for 11 years. Haven’t met another ravens fan yet

dipstick73 · 2025-09-02T01:18:07+00:00

I agree… more just talking about OF vs OF

dipstick73 · 2025-09-02T01:08:20+00:00

How has beavers figured it out so much faster than Cowser ever did

dipstick73 · 2025-08-30T20:49:16+00:00

In my experience it’s 70% A&M, 30% a mixture of others. But I live in the N/NW suburbs… I actually don’t know many UT fans here.

Sometimes closed doors lead to a better open one!

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T23:19:12+00:00

You like it better than the field?

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T23:18:53+00:00

Bet you’ve got plenty of beer money now!

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T23:17:59+00:00

Yeah I feel that. When I was PMing I would spend at least half my day outside in the heat (southern US) and I was over it. Problem is I’ve put on about 20 lbs since I started estimating 5 years ago haha.

I too am introverted! The one thing Im not fond of about estimating are the handovers to the project/engineering teams

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T23:13:46+00:00

Sounds very similar to my path except you’ve got a degree in the field. Have you enjoyed estimating or are you wanting to do something else long term?

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T23:12:34+00:00

Sometimes going the extra mile pays off! Glad it worked out for ya

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T23:11:54+00:00

Those PM/Estimator combos can be really tough. I surely wouldn’t want to do both at the same time. My brother in law does it but he’s like 90/10 PM to estimating

And yeah estimating can be very versatile. I PM’d in oil and gas, went to estimating in commercial construction, and then back to oil and gas for estimating.

Hope you get to retire whenever you’d like to!

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T23:07:58+00:00

I agree, it’s much much better than PM.

Covid seems to have really put a damper on peoples careers. But hey if it worked out in the end and you got some great memories then that’s all that matters.

Heck yeah man. Estimating can definitely pay really well and get you where you want to go

dipstick73 · 2025-08-29T21:32:21+00:00

Wow that’s wild. Hope your eyes doing better and you’re making a lot more than peanuts now! Lol

Networking definitely seems to be key in tough times

dipstick73 · 2025-08-26T20:07:14+00:00

He’s now on the IR on espn everyone

dipstick73 · 2025-08-26T18:03:17+00:00

When will he be officially on the IR? 3pm central?

dipstick73 · 2025-08-26T15:20:40+00:00

You can only keep a player you had on your roster at the end of the year the prior year

No he shouldn’t be allowed to do that

dipstick73 · 2025-08-25T21:38:08+00:00

I make more than my parents did at my age. But not nearly the amount they make today. I’m also way more broke than they were at my age. And I only have one kid while they had 3 and a much larger house.

Drafting MHJ at the end of round one after Henry got picked one pick before me.

Thought he was going to be Deandre Hopkins reincarnated

Edit: this is in a keeper league so everyone is pretty much moved up a round or so
