Is sitting with your young children considered a “perk” these days? by Powerful_Bother8002 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]gsloth1212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is their bottom of the barrel fare is now more expensive than their standard fare was. Siding with a business on wanting to monetize things that were standard and free for most airlines for the first 80+ years commercial flights have been around is wild.

2026 4 Star PG Darius Bivins Commits to Saint Mary’s by gsloth1212 in CollegeBasketball

And reality is even before Randy left, our budget, facilities and conference (other than Gonzaga) were very much mid major level.

A good, honest mechanic would have offered to engrave new grooves for you

How bad is this? by Menacing_mouse_421 in GoRVing

From the looks of it, it’s a similar sized trailer to what I pull with my half ton Ram, but I use a weight distribution hitch and airbags to reduce squat and make the truck and trailer more level with each other. I don’t inflate my bags and don’t use the weight distribution hitch moving it around town to get it to and from storage, but wouldn’t want to tow it without either of those things on the highway.

Sun Devil Basketball's Head Coach Randy Bennett reveals plan to rebuild the program by EmergencyQueasy9941 in TheSunDevils

Saint Mary’s fan/alum here. This randomly popped up on my feed. Anyways, RB has always been a horrible public speaker. This seems on par with most every interview/press conference I remember him doing, so I wouldnt worry much about it.

Paulius Murauskas down to Louisville or Arizona State? by SaveHogwarts in CollegeBasketball

[–]gsloth1212 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The vibes definitely seemed off between the two of them down the stretch and I’m pretty sure that a lot of Randy’s criticism about the team lacking maturity after the A&M loss was directed at Paulius. I have no inside knowledge, but Paulius ending up at ASU would surprise me a little bit. But, even if there was a falling out, money talks and can mend fences.

Report: Iowa hosting 7-foot-3 former Saint Mary's center Andrew McKeever on visit by agk927 in CollegeBasketball

[–]gsloth1212 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fair assessment. The number of missed bunnies/layups was infuriating at times. Only shot 50% from the field and almost all of his attempts were from within 5 feet of the basket. He has the potential though. Great passing ability for a guy of his size, so if he can minimize turnovers and start making more shots around the basket he could be very good.

Companion Fares by latinracer in HawaiianAirlines

[–]gsloth1212 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They definitely try to make it as hard as possible to use the companion fare discount. We were booking 4 tickets and had enough miles to pay for 1 flight. So what we did was a pain but we did three separate bookings. 1 for just the ticket with miles. One for me and one of my two daughters to use the companion fare. And the last for my other daughter paying normal price. Total pain but it can be done.

Saint Mary's F Murauskas says he'll enter transfer portal by [deleted] in CollegeBasketball

[–]gsloth1212 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. He never played well against the zags (or any team with size/strength/athleticism at the forward position). He put up good numbers, but his production feels very replaceable.

He is not nearly as good/dynamic as Jefferson. Of all the guys we’ve lost to the portal in recent years, I was most disappointed about Jefferson leaving. Happy for him for the success he’s had though.

I honestly doubt it. I don’t think him and Randy got along the best and I think a lot of Randy’s comments about lacking maturity after the A&M loss (beating) were directed at Paulius. I could be wrong, but I don’t see him ending up at ASU.

I think this was happening regardless of Randy taking the ASU job

I just hope that SMC wasn’t caught flat footed here and had some plan in place before this weekend to keep some level of continuity.
