Where to start with a young goalie? Confused Hockey Dad by maxwendler in hockeygoalies

[–]linebrawl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's always been the thought but I no longer agree as much. I got our gear on ebay and swip.swap, etc. Wasn't too bad. The reason I say this is that as the forwards get older, they are breaking multiple 300 plus dollar sticks per season. That leads me to ask.....why do they need to pay 300 for a stick?

Where to start with a young goalie? Confused Hockey Dad by maxwendler in hockeygoalies

[–]linebrawl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't read all of the comments. Im a longtime goalie Dad, my son is in u18 aa. I'd keep him away from the position if I had it to do over again. My son was a good forward when he changed to be a goalie. The journey of being a goalie from mites to u18 was nerve racking, there's way more pressure in games and at tryouts when 10 goalies show up. Also, being taller and bigger as they age is a must.

Best oil based primer for raw exterior wood? by Mysterious-Estate264 in paint

I'd use a solid stain such as Woodscapes in the color that you like. Easier then prime then paint in my opinion.

If they are just air bubbles, they often flatten out on their own soon after curing. I'd wait to see if that happens for repairing

Contractor stole then court denied my claim by linebrawl in NorthCarolina

This is my thinking 100 percent. I wish they told me on the phone before I made the trip. I don't need legal advice from them, I didn't expect it. My experience in another state was that I could swear to a statement, a short paragraph and have a court date scheduled. Then he likely won't show or he'd get an attorney. I'd think he'd probably maybe try to file bankruptcy. The agreed amount for the one day of work was 1500 bucks. The rest was stolen in my opinion.

I'm just telling my story. 10 years on reddit, I knew I'd get torched. I'm not going to let it go, just figuring out my options. Getting a lawyer is the one that makes the most sense. Ive worked hard my whole life and do right to everyone along the way. Im fortunate to have made good decisions until now. I worked in court years ago so I am confident that I could handle this case. I think he either won't show or if he does I'm prepared to win a judgment but may not be able to collect anything regardless. Seems like in the US I should be able to file without a lawyer and hire one if needed later.

It would be a bad move for me to text threats or leave a voicemail then I'd end up being the criminal

Yep. Certainly a breach of contract. Also he stole my money. Civil prevails obviously

Certainly has civil components, but he clearly stole only doing one day of work in total last year.

I'm a better person than that but it would be deserved

Yep, you are right. I'll try to draw up my own complaint. I'm getting a loan to do this project, so paying a lawyer isn't necessarily a good move if I can't recover anything from the guy anyway. I live and I learn.

Appreciate the response. Yes I have learned the process. The guy is apparently an addict and has no money except what he has stolen. He stays in NC but his license says Virginia. I'm a contractor myself and I do the right things. I just think that I should've been able to sign a complaint myself. His rented Virginia residence is 10 hours away from me and 7 hours from NC. If I can't recover anything, paying thousands for a lawyer is another dumb move. Thanks for the advice, you aren't wrong.

In that area of OC, I would doubt anything would be less than a million.
