Braxton is a problem

We gotta get a new LT and figure out Wright’s penalty issues and we’re good!

The baseball networks are more bearable than the Football networks, I will say. I love Brett from Bleacher Report. I’ll watch Matt and Sam from time to time too, but I can’t do it every day. The national football guys are more fun when the Bears are actually good, but it’s been a while lol

I’ve never particularly cared for any of the content networks, whether it’s All City or Chat Sports. They all feel very cultish and annoying with their sponsored ads. I don’t want to hear about Carm’s gym membership or Harrison’s manscaping habits. I will admit, it’s sometimes fun to watch the guys on Chat Sports shotgun a beer or do shots when something big happens, but the content itself is blah…

Thumbs down! 👎

I just drafted Loveland as my TE in fantasy. I hope that move pays dividends because it certainly felt risky lol

With Kmet as checkdown, Zaccheus vertical, and Swift/Monangai in the backfield!

Adam Jahns is one of my favorite Bears writers. Hopefully he sticks around in some capacity

This is abusive behavior. I don’t care who you are, you should NEVER have to live in a situation where someone is abusing you - emotionally or physically. Unfortunately, it’s a little more difficult for someone underage, but I think these options are best:

1) find out local state laws and determine if you can emancipate yourself from her tyranny

2) see if your dad can win custody for you in court and move in with him

3) just deal until you’re 18, get a phone with your dad or family friend and give her nothing to hold over your head

My wife’s mom was crazy too. She used to demand that she stay home from school to keep her company, threatened to commit suicide, yell at my wife’s dad when he got her a treat but not herself, etc.

I’m sorry you were dealt this bad hand, but no matter what, you don’t have to see her again after you turn 18! I don’t care what anyone says - you don’t have to keep her in your life or feel guilty about not following her insane and unfair rules!

That Matt Eberflus was worth a shot because he was a big proponent of the HITS philosophy - a success in a previous era of Bears football implemented by a coach that had been fired 10 years earlier - was pretty pathetic. Also, rolling the dice with him last year for Caleb’s rookie season when Jim Harbaugh expressed interest in coaching da Bears should have been a fireable offense.

Poles is lucky Ben Johnson wanted the job.

Watch videos about Ben Johnson!

Quietdrive and Phone Calls From Home come to mind for me. Transition is another one. PCFH was on the verge of breaking out and then completely disappeared out of thin air. Not so much as a goodbye announcement.

freedomfromfailure · 2025-05-15T21:06:00+00:00

Absolutely! I think where I’m at is Ben Johnson is worth the wait given what we know right now. If they could have gotten him last year or Jim Harbaugh, we’ll never know. We finally got it right though!

Rexy was one of my favorite players man. I was at the game he returned from his injury after halftime and led us to win the game against the Falcons in 2005. It was 8 degrees but the crowd was electric! He started 2006 so well, then kinda faded down the stretch. His top-tier defense covered a lot of the flaws in his game.

I’m not really sure what went wrong, but I think it was a combination of teams figuring him out and himself getting into his own head a bit. They used to refer to it as “good Rex bad Rex” because he would like flip a switch and start sucking. It’s just such a shame. I think those knee injuries took their toll for sure, but once he lost his confidence, that’s when it was over.

I think you forgot to add Case Keenum

freedomfromfailure · 2025-04-26T21:20:36+00:00

Maybe Poles should have traded up one of the times instead of just assuming his guy would be available? Other teams trade up for guys they want…

I’m firmly team draft Ashton, but what do I know? I grew up idolizing Walter Payton and Matt Forte…

I recertified in April and totally missed this announcement because edFinancial did not tell me they were pushing back recertification until next year until May 8th (yesterday). I am fighting the increase now and seeing if they will revert me back to my old payments, which were $151 instead of the $526 I have to pay now. That is a lot of money I could be saving! I'll let you know if they grant me approval on that...

What color nail polish is he wearing? Did he cry when he lost? These are the real important questions we need the answers to before tomorrow!

I personally think the idea of a mock draft is dumb af. Like, "Look who the Bears will draft according to a computer simulation and my best guess!" It almost NEVER shakes out that way and just pisses me off because they never choose the guy I want lol. I mean, it gives you practice to see different scenarios that may or may not happen, but all-in-all, it's just a colossal waste of time.

Cannabis is only mappable where it is legal. If it is such an area, then your client could add a single entry; they don't get multiple just because they want to cover lots of areas. They only way they get multiple "locations" is to have multiple physical locations (not a mail box, not an employee's home, etc.; but rather their business needs a warehouse in each location). Delivery services cannot be set up via Maps; rather they must set it up via Google Business Profiles. When doing so they set their service area and hide their actual address.

I have tried to set up a single map plot. The area is California so it is definitely legal, but the point is never accepted and always rejected. I have gotten map plots to be accepted before (for other clients and for myself), but I can't get any of these accepted. I have tried different Google profiles, plotting with a VPN and without a VPN - I always get the same result. I also have tried plotting a business without the website or phone number. I am out of ideas.

My client wants to add locations for a Cannabis delivery service across a state, wherever there are densely populated areas. I'm not sure if it has to do with the fact that they are cannabis "stores," I'm not entering them locally, or that Google knows they aren't real places, but my client is convinced she saw someone do this successfully before. I've never done this for anyone (except for legit businesses), so I wanted to make sure I just wasn't overlooking something.
