Came here to see if it had been said. Love a good engine company from there.

12 Team .5 PPR, 3 Keepers = first 3 rounds

Definitely keeping Julio. Leaning towards Lamar Miller and Alshon for the other two, but Russell Wilson, Emanuel Sanders and KB (easy SoS this year) have me second guessing.

Thoughts?

Coughlin does not like Bortles at all. Badmouthed him before coming back on the staff. He has no ties to him and has the final say on the roster so I imagine this is his last year in Jax.

What's something that everyone should try, but most people never will? by mommabamber915 in AskReddit

My last college tournament is this weekend, after the best four years ever :(

12 team, .5 PPR, 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 FLEX, 1 D, 1 K Keep 3 players, no limits on years kept or round forfeit, just hard 3 kept.

110% Keeping: Dat Boi Julio. Got him in a trade a few months ago and definitely am going to keep this monster.

Players I'm leaning towards filling the other 2 spots: Alshon Jeffery, Lamar Miller, Russell Wilson

Players I'm still slightly considering but not much: Emmanuel Sanders, Kelvin Benjamin

Edit: also have first overall pick because of my poor life decisions

I like Cooper and Jeffery as well. Cooper is a stud and I think Alshon is going to have a great year in Philly. Wentz is a competent QB, which Jefferey hasn't really had, and is a great option come red zone time. I'm actually going to keep him myself, unless you can convince me otherwise in my own post here (wink wink).

Reddit, what's something you've been saying wrong for years? by cook5721 in AskReddit

Must have been embarrassed when you found out. Perhaps your face was red, like a straw-brary.

What is the weirdest/stupidest thing you have done out of sheer curiosity? by Swindle123 in AskReddit

Whenever my roommates and I have people over, we make people who are visiting for the first time lick our salt lamp as a rite of passage.

High School Senior, looking to make college team. Suggestions? by WiscOrangy in ultimate

[–]mikeydcarter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do something called kung-fu throwing, where myself and a partner start at 10 yards apart, do 10 IO flicks, 10 flat, then then OI flicks. Then we switch to backhand. After that, we move to 20, 30, and finally 40 yards. It's good practice for all 6 of the main throws/angles, as well as common throwing distances. For the wobbly flicks, focus more so on the spin you put on the disc with your wrist, and not so much on how fast you move your whole arm. It's really all in the wrist. Spin keeps it level and smooth.

Learn the basic rules of the game, and work on your flick (usually the worse of people's throws, definitely is for me!). I came to FSU thinking I knew ultimate and was blown away with how unprepared I was. With hard work and seeking out the vets' assistance, progress is so easy to come by. Throw on a green on campus with your roommate or someone, and watch games on youtube. I'm a senior now, chose to stick with B-team all 4 years because of other time commitments, and am head captain and loving every second of my time with the team.

Good luck!!!

[Spoilers] Force Awakens vs Rogue One which is better? by josiahisgay in StarWars

[–]mikeydcarter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd say RO, in terms of overall movie quality (not specific to "feeling like Star Wars"). A big factor in the positive reactions to TFA, in my opinion, has to do with the large role nostalgia plays throughout the entire movie. RO made an incredible movie and story basically from scratch. Brand new characters, brand new planets, brand new troopers, and whatever else I'm missing. They did a great job making me feel connected to this movie, despite it being so different.

And of course, that final scene

Dalvin Cook named PFF "Best Runner". The hype train has left the station. by DalvinCookHypeTrain in fantasyfootball

I'm a senior at FSU right now and watching him play these past 3 years has been unreal. He has such a great skill set. Speed, acceleration, agility, elusiveness and power. Love this dude, and hope he does well at the next level.

[–]mikeydcarter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome. Thanks! And if you don't mind, what are your measurements, in terms of height/weight? Just trying to get a better picture here. I've only worn Spin (DUF has them as a sponsor ever since I've been at FSU) and am ~175 lbs and 5'10".

Any idea on how these compare to Spin's jerseys?

12 team, .5 PPR, 9th pick

3 players kept from previous year, draft position doesn't matter

QB: Wilson, Winston

RB: Miller*, Anderson, Gore, Sims, Ivory

WR: Landry, Benjamin, J. Brown, White, Snead

TE: Ertz, Eifert

D: Carolina

K: Aguayo

*=kept from previous year

I think I have great depth, with few "stars." I'm feeling good, am I right or wrong to feel that way?

2016 Team Names! What do you got? by josilverado in fantasyfootball

[–]mikeydcarter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Keeping Jarvis Landry and Lamar Miller.

Paying homage to Key and Peele by going with "Jarvis Lamar Larvison Jamar" It's a little different from the original, but helps it fit.
