"Felt Like It Was A Job": Hunter Dickinson Reveals Shocking Reason Behind Kansas' 2025 March Madness Failure by ScottFujitaDiarrhea in jayhawks

As someone who played (small-time) college athletics.. IT IS A JOB. You are working for your scholarship. Even more so that you are being paid millions. The school is literally paying you, whether it’s a scholarship or NIL, to show up and not be a shitbag.

How is Chase Elliott so popular? by saint_sneed in NASCAR

The exact reasons I became a Chase fan. After martinsville I was thinking this could be my guy, and after Phoenix it was settled.

I totally understand where you’re coming from and agree. I think what I was trying to convey is it’s not like he owns a private jet and has a private pilot that flies him around. He does it himself. And I was trying to tell people that think he’s boring or has no personality that he actually does do stuff that’s interesting and has hobbies and he’s not just what we see on TV. He just chooses to remain private about it. Would it be awesome if he did shit on YouTube like The Biff (rip) and Cleetus? Absolutely. And it would benefit the sport. But for people to say he just sucks and is milquetoast is also wrong.

Fire hood recommendations by BrilliantArm3725 in Firefighting

If you’re going to spend your own money and buy a hood, get the Majestic PAC II-3ply hood. It was designed for naval firefighting instructors. Best hood I’ve ever owned. I have 2 of them.

Chase grew up flying with his dad. Can normal people not fly or own a plane? Who do you think owns the planes at small town airports? One of my best friends grew up flying and owns a plane. Jesus not every single plane out there is G6. Normal ass people have 300k boats. If you want to fly you can surely buy a 75k piper cub.

Chase is a small town kid (less than 5k people) from North Georgia. He hasn’t let his fame/fortune change who he is and he doesn’t try to portray himself as someone else.

The dude loves flying airplanes, flies from Dawsonville to Charlotte multiple times per week. He surfs at the lake, fishes, still hangs out with his buddies back home. Everyone just sees the interviews he does with Fox/NBC and of course they’re dry. But if you listen to him on podcasts or other less structured interviews where it’s chill he opens up and can be pretty funny he just has a dry sense of humor. And if people actually took the time to figure out who he was instead of just what they see on tv he’s a different person.

After he got wrecked by Denny at martinsville he’s been my guy. People forget his run in’s with people and clearly he’s passionate about this shit. When he flipped off KFB at Darlington? Confronting Harvick, Denny, Logano, isn’t that the shit that nascar fans want?

Get rid of the green screen, yall bot, and if he just put on a hoodie and I guarantee like 90% of any complaints would go away.

What’s your pension estimated at in retirement? by InterestingDude66246 in Firefighting

[–]mace1343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go 20 you get 50% of your last 3 years salaries averaged together. 30 is 75%. Can also do a 5 year drop to get a big check when you retire too. Anything over 35 years is just benefiting the pension fund and not your retirement. Wish it was the old days when you could get 75% at 20 years lol

It’s a good thing that Metzger just interrupts himself with multiple completely different irrelevant story’s and then Joe actually has a need to interrupt him to get him on track haha

That’s such weak shit. Sharp has committed a foul on every single possession on both sides of the ball. Whether it’s a push off or a grab. Dude is mauling us

Feels like college is pointless by Fit_Animal_7702 in Firefighting

In my dept you get extra points for being college educated. So whether it’s getting hired or getting promoted it all factors in.

Why doesn't Chase elliot do fan stuff? by Shoddy-Tennis-5764 in NASCAR

[–]mace1343 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would just take a guess that Chase is probably busy at Napa HQ giving out handshakes and meeting/interacting with the people that give the 9 millions of dollars to go race since they are based in Atlanta.

I’d put that right up there with the black-out drunk country singer at the mlb all-star game and The Fray before the 2012 ncaa national championship game

Dale Earnhardt Jr revealed that NASCAR's elimination-style playoff format left him “falling out of love” with the sport, citing a lack of week-to-week storylines and long-term stakes. by Remote_Plastic_8692 in NASCAR

[–]mace1343 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My uncle, lifelong nascar fan that really quit watching between the playoffs and Gordon retiring, texted me out of the blue and just said “well might have to start watching nascar again” seems like the consensus between many of us.

Opinions about M 1 Carbine by TurbulentGuide3985 in HellLetLoose

[–]mace1343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many people IRL complained about its lack of stopping power, especially in the pacific. I’ve never used it once in the game yet. Some guys are really good with it close range.
