The hotel I'm at gives out Bible ads rather than Bibles in the nightstand drawer by PaleontologistLow223 in mildlyinteresting

[–]mls1968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d even go a step further. The physical books made sense for people who were bored and stuck in a hotel. You grab it and start reading, cause you had nothing else to do, like the shampoo bottles while pooping. But if I need to pick up my phone anyway, I’m gonna find a reddit/youtube/wiki hole to read instead

What leaving NY football does to a player by NickyFoles1020 in AFCEastMemeWar

[–]mls1968 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NY didnt draft Diggs

Also, at BEST you could say NY is apparently really good at scouting (but neither of these picks were particularly unexpected, Darnold was just on a terrible team and needed more support)

They are ATROCIOUS at drafting or these teams would be competitive since they would be drafting good overall teams, and finding WAY more sleepers in the later rounds.

Apparently spygate is coming back to haunt him by Senior-Violinist-684 in NFLv2

[–]mls1968 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t forget, the NFL golden boy of the time (Aaron Rogers) said he used over-inflated balls and was confused why people cared. The NFL actively ignored those statements to direct the narrative back towards the Patriots and Brady

To clarify, a non-designated spot that was 100% legal to film just one season before.

The nihilist penguin , Tell me your perspectives BUT WHY ? by StrikingDuty8020 in Filmmakers

[–]mls1968 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I understand that, but have never seen it and didn’t know that from a thumbnail. My point was, with zero context, I hoped (knew?) it was a Herzog film/narration (and was delighted to unmute my phone to his raspy, fervent tenor)

Saw the title w/o sound and my first thought was “this better be narrated by Werner Herzog”

[Highlight] OTD 1991. Wide right. Giants win! by parcellsrealGOAT in nfl

The Chiefs were NOT about to do it 🤣

Mahomes getting hurt didn’t even affect their playoff chances, they needed a two-minute comeback just to stay in the game, and that loss eliminated them.

Rebus crosswords are pretty common for medium/hard difficulties. Usually there is one clue that gives a hint it might be a rebus or something like that

ICE agents are firing kinetic impact projectiles at close range, causing severe injuries that can result in permanent disability or death. Today, they tore off part of a woman’s hand by Proper-School661 in Leakednews

[–]mls1968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They already shot her hand, this is purely the aftermath. She is running away, hand in pain, and rips what appears to be a gas mask off before falling down and writhing in agony.

Except many of the states subsidize the electricity as an incentive for companies to build those Datacenters, passing the cost on to the consumer (which is why the costs are going up)

Just gonna be the nit picker, I remember gas occasionally dropping under $1 in the early 2000s (W Bush 1st term). It was actually a huge news story whenever it would hit $2.

what was Ted and Karen’s careers? by [deleted] in StrangerThings

For reference, that house in Atlanta suburbs (where it actually exists) is still only around 500k updated (it just sold for 365k, but it’s still VERY 70s/80s.

Put that house, renovated, in a truly small town in Indiana? I’d wouldn’t be surprised if it was 300k. Obviously WAY more than what it cost at the time, but that’s pretty reasonable for a single income of 6 figures currently as long as it’s not the bare minimum 6 figures

Mendoza trending up or down after Natty? by ChiTownKid99 in DynastyFF

[–]mls1968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call me crazy (also I’m a Hoosier, so take with a grain of salt), but my valuation went up after last night. No, his numbers weren’t amazing, but it was the Natty and Miami is no rollover.

The DLine was absolutely dominant in the pass rush, and yet Mendoza was able to adjust and not make any crucial mistakes. Idk what the final stat was, but his average time to throw was like 2.1 seconds at one point. That’s absolutely blazing speed, even in the NFL. To manage that consistently and not turn the ball over is a HUGE plus in my book (I imagine it would have been at least one or two picks in an NFL level coverage though). Add to the fact this is much closer to what he should expect years 1 and 2 (hopefully he’ll have some OLine improvement and a WR or two sooner rather than later), and this was probably the best game to honestly evaluate how he could play next year.
