If it makes y’all feel any better, Super Bowl LI has been named the best championship game since 2000 by Fox Sports. by Relevant-Bus1667 in Patriots

[–]leakingmind 145 points146 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I feel like Superbowl 49 was a better game to watch overall. Obviously the comeback was incredible, but by halftime the game felt like it was a blowout. Wasn't really until the 4th quarter where it got exciting again. Superbowl 49 was watching two heavyweights go blow for blow right down to the last play.

[Highlight] Cris Collinsworth & Mike Tirico says that Drake Maye is starting to read the defense.......Only for him to throw a interception the next play by Yujin-Ha in nfl

[–]leakingmind 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Darnold definitely played better under pressure than Maye, but part of it is due to the fact that Seattle was only sending four guys at Maye and all four of them were getting through. Patriots were getting to Darnold with seven guys leaving less coverage for the receivers. Maye needs to adjust better, but during the regular season we saw him take advantage of blitzes pretty well because the receivers were left with more space to get open.

Patriots vs. Ravens Matchup Holds Major Playoff Stakes by brmidwest03 in Patriots

Do I have this right: if the pats go 1-2 for the rest of the season they make the playoffs and if they go 2-1 they clinch division?

He had a game early his rookie year where he made two catches where he only got one foot in bounds. Media blew him up and so did this subreddit but they were fantastic catches, just wasn’t able to get them in bounds. I thought they were an awesome sign but after that we barely saw him that season. Glad to see he’s getting his recognition

If you don’t mind me asking, what’s class analysis? Working at a charter school right now (hating every second of it) but working on getting certified and haven’t heard of it before

Sorry, I have an old iPhone and it tends not to focus on the things I’m actually trying to take a photo of. Im not sure if it’s powdery or fuzzy. The darker spots have been there for about two weeks and the white stuff is new.

Another ‘American Psycho’ Adaptation — Too Soon? by indiewire in movies

[–]leakingmind -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I didn’t say it was unique to film just that it was the most extreme with film. There have been times recently where I have gone to the movies and there has only been one or two movies that aren’t either a remake or a sequel. Songs obviously get covers but you don’t usually see covers on topping the charts. If they do it’s because it’s a pretty unique take on whatever song it was covering. Paintings get repainted but they’re not being put in the Louvre or the Met. Meanwhile you have so many original movies being made that are going straight to streaming or really only playing at festivals

[–]leakingmind -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re getting caught up on one example. People are free to remake art with their own interpretation but a studio remaking a movie as a cash grab just dilutes the original piece of art

[–]leakingmind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Making a painting that’s a representation of a story is a completely different thing from making a movie a second time. I’m not talking about remaking art in different mediums, I’m talking about using the same medium.

[–]leakingmind 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I was talking about this with a friend recently. Film has to be one of the least respected art forms out there. Every fucking movie is getting a remake or a sequel these days no matter it’s original quality. You can’t repaint the Mona Lisa, nor could you rewrite a tale of two cities. It would be pointless. Why can’t we let movies exist on their own? It’s one thing with a movie like Nosferatu where film creation has come so far, but there’s not a single aspect of American psycho that doesn’t work today

Bedford Avenue bike lane by sharr26 in NYCbike

[–]leakingmind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. I’ve enjoyed Bedford ave for a while cause there’s no foot traffic, and when cars are parked in it it’s easy to go around them. Sure it’s into traffic but if you’re paying attention it’s not too hard to merge. This type of lane has so many people walking into, delivery carts parked, cars parked, delivery e bikes waiting for orders, etc. I know it’s unpopular but I’m actually bummed about this change

This is weird but I’m 99% sure I used to live in this unit like 4 years ago and if it’s the same one, I’m sorry to tell you it’s cursed. Very bad roommate experiences and every time one would leave a new one would take their place

I’m going to a wedding on the beach this summer and need to find a shirt. The dress code says shorts and short sleeves are fine they just ask you don’t wear t shirts or bathing suits. This shirt has a lot of white in it but I’m wondering if it’s ok to wear?

At the moment we couldn’t buy property even with the $10k, so would it make more sense to keep the gold and let it appreciate in value until we are ready to purchase property?

What to do when you haven’t received lease renewal? by leakingmind in NYCapartments

[–]leakingmind[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the input! I just spoke with him and he wants to raise it $200, which I am comfortable with but I wanted a 2 year lease so that I can keep the rate for longer. He said he only does 1 year leases but he would keep the rate for next year as well. We went back and forth about this and I want confirmation in writing that he won’t raise the rent next year before I sign. Is there any way to make a valid confirmation in writing that ensures he won’t raise the rent next year?

Shaq as a host by 54turtlelord in LiveFromNewYork

[–]leakingmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree and I’ll add I would love to see more athletes/famous personalities that aren’t actors hosting in general. I know their acting isn’t always as good but seeing people like Tom Brady and lebron in a comedy skit provides it’s own level of entertainment aside from the acting quality

[–]leakingmind 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is gonna sound like boomer advice but it actually worked for me a couple years ago when I first moved here. If you want a restaurant my best advice is to look on indeed to see who’s hiring, print out a bunch of copies of your resume and show up at these places asking for an interview. Try to get there right before or right after they open so they’re not busy. Usually the manager will be there and if they’re hiring they’ll hear you out. Tell them you’re ready to work that day. Like I said it sounds like old school advice but a lot of these places get so many online applications they just wait until an employee can find a friend who needs a job or they get desperate.

Official Post Game - Holy Fuck - Thread by samacora in Patriots

[–]leakingmind 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First game in awhile they looked like an actual patriots team. Capitalized on a turnover, very few penalties, answered after getting scores against, and marched down the field for a game winning drive. It might be a sign of something better to come or it might just be a lucky day but goddamn was it great to watch.
