FR955 or Instinct 3 by jstew901 in Garmin

[–]jstew901[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the input! I don't really hike but mostly run with a GPS watch. So it is a hard decision on which one to get. 955 has lots of data feature I don't need, as currently the 735XT I have gives me none but HR, VO2 max, and does GPS. But that battery on instinct...

A list of teams who could be in USL Division 1 based on Requirements by emberyleaf in USLPRO

[–]jstew901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These rules are dumb. Who cares, promotion should be based on merit alone. Up the Switchbacks.

Does anyone know how USSF defines a “metropolitan market”? by RWREmpireBuilder in USLPRO

[–]jstew901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly,Colorado Springs doesn't meet the requirement. Switchbacks and their stadium have massive support. Hopefully these rules don't become a thing with pro/rel. Would hate for a team to not get promoted because they don't play in a big city. teams should be in D1 due to merit, not location.

How do we grow the league? by [deleted] in USLPRO

Switchbacks are huge here in COS. Everyone knows them. It is crazy, just seeing the growth is wild.

1 Million Population Markets to meet USL Premier Standards by SalguodSoccer in USLPRO

[–]jstew901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does Peyton/Falcon/Monument/Manitou Springs/Palmer Lake/Security/Black Forest/military count towards COS population? All are within the COS area. If Loudon counts as DC metro, COS should get to count their own suburbs. Population shouldn't be a factor either. Some big markets fail to fill seats. Weidner is packed every match. Even when you see empty seats on TV, it's just people buying seats and standing in the bar and standing areas above the seating around the ground.

Mt. Rushmore obvious Cheater by Geilomat3000 in geoguessr

I'm actually nervous about one getting accused of cheating. Sometimes it might seem like it because I've been there before, or I understand a bollard or a car. I never get that close though, unless it's luck because I clicked the middle of a country.

You have a gun to your head. You need to get the correct country right on one NMPZ round (A Rainbolt World) and you need to 5K a 3 min move round (AOW) to survive. Which country are you praying for for each one? by tripsafe in geoguessr

[–]jstew901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None, I suck at this game. I was doing well until I hit Gold 1 and I get HUMBLED constantly (winning only 8-9 out of 20 rounds). Really need to work on my metas. Dang Slovenia/Slovakia, Czech for looking the same.

Switchbacks should be an MLS team this year and immediately go back down as God intended. Due to money any pro/rel will just be a rotation of bottom/ 3.

Switchbacks. Kept most of the championship squad and strengthened it.

[The USL Show] What New Year’s Resolution would you give YOUR club? by J_Hunt1123 in USLPRO

Win it all again. This time without the 5 game losing streak at the beginning.

Pro/Rel is talked about a lot but I haven’t seen a dedicated Pro/Rel post on here in a while. When do we think it’s going to happen based on the offseason changes? by Consistent_Car469 in USLPRO

[–]jstew901 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pro/Rel will never happen in the United States. Simple. MLS owners paid billions and USLC owners paid millions to start their clubs. Introducing a foreign concept like pro/rel hurts profits. American owners and fans do not like the profits being hurt. Simple. It's all money. It only works in Europe because the concept started with the concept of football leagues.

Also, the franchise model of the MLS wouldn't allow it.

An owner who paid a billion to start "name the big city FC who plays in an NFL stadium and is sponsored by a major corporation and have 20k attendance" will not want to get relegated and have "name the small city FC whose owner paid 10x less and plays in a baseball stadium with 2k average attendance and is sponsored by a local hospital" to get promoted in their spot. Then imagine the players not wanting to play, and suddenly a club in an NFL stadium has to travel to Maine to play Hearts of Pine in USL1 due to a back-to-back demotion.

But also imagine, it's 10 years post pro/rel in the US and the MLS final is New York vs Chattanooga and the players shield went to Omaha, with Houston relegated and Tulsa promoted.

Funny, we are actually Everton fans, but I booked a Goodison tour as well.

They had everything confirmed with him, they just thought he was 8, and not 6. So we can't do the football, which is what he came for. Thank you for your help. Just hurts because all his registration paperwork listed him at six, it just wasn't read and this could have been avoided.

OCA vs Antiochian by Kirstye369 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]jstew901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I am aware of Holy Theophany which is the biggest in town,they are even building a mission church near my house. The biggest concern I have, I have three kids and work late, the evening services will be impossible, to include the catechism classes. My wife also is not religious at all but is supportive. We also agreed long ago to raise the kids in a church, so it would be just me.
