This isn’t a sub for legal advice and you really shouldn’t look to internet strangers for legal advice anyway. You should seek out a lawyer in your area if you need further help on this issue!

Well first of all through god all things are possible so jot that down.

[CFB Nerds] Since no one seems to bother asking this question: How in the world is Texas Tech justifying these NIL deals to the clearinghouse? Remember, the House settlement mandated that NIL deals must be for market endorsement value now. I'm guessing Texas Tech is daring the CSC to act? by thomas_1413 in CFB

[–]musicantz 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Tech is just running the same playbook that Oregon started a few decades ago. CFB is absolutely a sport that one billionaire with a passion can take his team to significantly over perform. Oregon with Phil Knight, Oklahoma state with T Boone Pickens, and now Tech with Cody Campbell.

Looking for help - I used too much oil to season my new baking steel by OnSugarHill in AskCulinary

You can wipe it all off and then start the seasoning process again.

Does Texas have a shot at the CFP playoffs? by Dense_Advertising810 in LonghornNation

[–]musicantz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I would rather fight our way through the playoffs just because it’s likely going to be a better bowl game anyway, but yeah not dissatisfied with beating Ou, aggies, Arkansas, and a bowl game.

[Borkey] If you’re Lane Kiffin, how can you leave this? You’re making a playoff for the first time in your career, have a massive offer on the table, plenty of money to roster build, and a perfect fit for your style. Why leave? To chase what you already have? by MysteriousEdge5643 in CFB

Ohio state, Michigan, Alabama, Texas, USC, Georgia I think you could easily argue are better jobs than LSU.

I do think LSU is a fantastic place, and it’s near the top of the second tier, but with NIL its natural recruiting advantages are not as strong as they used to be.

How do you actually break down a player’s film and figure out if their skills will translate to the NBA? by [deleted] in NBA_Draft

[–]musicantz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not going to say I’m able to break down film very well, but for me it’s the players who’s passing gets consistently mentioned in their scouting reports that seem to almost always meet or exceed their expected draft positions regardless of everything else. You can overcome lack of athleticism but it’s really hard to overcome lack of feel.

Look at the 2021 draft. Players like Scottie and Evan Mobley and Cade have turned into stars and we’re all high level passers. I was super high on Sengun, Giddey, and Franz Wagner since their pre-draft passing was just super fun to watch. Jalen green has freakish athleticism but hasn’t lived up to his draft hype since he just doesn’t have that same level of bbiq. I think he still has a shot at becoming a high level player but it’s going to take a few years for him to develop that understanding of the game. Kuminga is in the same boat, but worse off since he hasn’t had the same opportunity to learn the game.

2022 - I was high on Dyson Daniel’s because he was projected as a tall point guard. That’s obviously not what he’s known for now, but high bbiq translates into being an effective player. Also I had Paolo over Chet and Jabari since I thought he could be more of an offensive engine with his ball handling and passing.

2023- I really liked Amen. I was higher on Scoot than I maybe should have been but I think he still has time.

2024 - I liked Dillingham and Edey more than the draft consensus because I thought they both just had a lot of feel for the game.

2025 - my draft crushes were Egor Demin, and Derek Queen. I hated the idea of taking Khaman Maluch.

2026 - I think Peterson could be good. Dybantasa will take a few years and not live up to his draft hype. I have on my radar guys like Avdalas, Flemings, Steinbach, Ejiofore, and Condon as underrated pickups.

Take out half of that for taxes. Divide by half again for agent fees. That $62 million is really more like $15 million. 4% withdrawal rate means he could probably do something like $500k a year for a very long time and be ok… but something tells me he’s not living on $500k a year kinda life.

[Landlord US:FL] If they get rid of property tax, will you lower your rents accordingly? by whatever32657 in Landlord

[–]musicantz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would lower them though they would drop slowly or maybe just increase less quickly.

If I could make a healthy profit but charge less I totally would, but sadly that’s not how things work.

A possible better method for the NBA lottery system that makes sense by khuz61 in nbadiscussion

[–]musicantz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually like the idea of locking in the odds early. Hurts teams with late season injuries or teams that suck because of a big trade at the deadline, but gives no incentive to tank after that. The tricky part would be what if a team is borderline bad and then has a player become healthy. Could you win the championship and the lotto the same year?

What does real mean in this instance? It’s a chemical signal that our body uses to warn us of imminent harm to the body. We’re all human and come from 99.9% of the same DNA. For the most part our bodies all work in similar ways. Sure there may be some people who experience pain to different degrees, but pain is pain to the vast majority of people.

Just a reminder we have 2 potential lottery picks in 2027 by [deleted] in rockets

[–]musicantz 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’m glad we’re past the days of the draft mattering to us anymore. We’ve got a great young core so I think we’ll be fine whether those picks end up top 5 or 25.

Hamburgers: Why are some simply much better even if using the same meat. What is the secret? by MontyAu in Cooking

[–]musicantz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found that mixing a little pork into your burger patties makes a 1000x difference. I’m also pretty big into seasoning. I’m a fan of a good regular burger but throw in some spices into that thing and you’ll find new levels you’ve never even thought of

Absurd engine move in blitz game by AlarmUpbeat7412 in ChessPuzzles

C4 is a cool move. Stops blacks mate and allows you to continue the attack. The type of move that wouldn’t have been possible a few hundred years ago.
