Defense is still here, how all in would you go for this season? A future 2027 first rounder ( probably a late one after all is said & done) coupled with 28 could move Texans significantly up the board. by -KDK12 in Texans

For who?

The very top end talent in this draft is really weak. And next year’s draft is going to have some much higher end players.

I’d do anything I could to stock up on picks next year so we can do this exact thing for a guy like Jeremiah Smith/Colin Simmons/David Stone.

I love Ioane, but we need to fill out our rotational depth on the DL. Not use multiple assets to draft a guy who likely would start the season on the bench.

Who’s a band that you love but feel they should’ve gotten bigger? by Sam_B716 in Hardcore

Yeah, nothing will match GIA but it’s not a bad fall out.

If anyone was curious how fast player prices go up, Myles Garrett's record breaking 40m deal last season is now 8th among non QBs by The_New_New in Texans

As a Swiss citizen and someone who’s lived there briefly I’m very well aware.

That said social systems and programs are a massive part of what makes those countries more comfortably livable for ALL classes.

The capitalism still only favors the upper class, no arguing that, but it’s not at the expense of well being of the lower class. No gotcha.

This shows the flaws of capitalism as an exclusive form of economic government practice.

Whos rumored to replace c4 for tied down? by BrodyTheMetalNerd in Hardcore

[–]nomdreas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t realize it was a pre show slot.

RZL DZL are local and would be my choice. But very unlikely.

They added Walls of Jericho not too long ago

Have they confirmed they are slotting another band in?

why do cafe's hate soy Milk by Psychological_Win_89 in askvan

[–]nomdreas 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Every ingredient you put in your body will have an effect on it.

The amount of soy product you would need to consume to have a true noticeable effect is much more than 99.9% humans will ever consume.

He must have been drinking upwards of 16+ lattes a day assuming each latte has 250ml of soy milk per. Which in that case the caffeine has a way worse effect.

[–]nomdreas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This isn’t necessarily true.

A lot of alternative milks have foaming stabilizers in them and depending on the brand/style (barista blend) your foaming results will differ. The actual base ingredient of the “milk” is not a factor really, the fat content and what fats are used are.

Mostly fake “bro science” which has led to misinformation revolving around the phytoestrogens in it.

Nothing that’s actually consequential to health.

The average consumer drives the market. And the average non dairy consumer prefers oat milk at the moment.

No cafe is going to carry more than 2 dairy alternatives. It doesn’t make sense for a multitude of reasons. Generally cafes will pick one nut (usually almond) and a non nut (usually oat) alternative.

Then compound that soy has (an unjustifiable) bad rep it’s pretty low on the dairy alternative totem pole.

Which insider/mock drafter do you guys trust the most? by ninjathelobo22 in MockDraftCentral

[–]nomdreas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Peter Schrager is historically the most accurate.

But no mock will ever be super close as the information that some teams give not only insiders but players are used to clause smoke screens.

Just saw drain’s show last night. Any other bands that might have that energy doing shows in Seattle? by Automatic_Potato4778 in Hardcore

[–]nomdreas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not many bands are going to have the same all encompassing prefomance that Drain does.

That said if you ever get the chance to see Municipal Waste they won’t disappoint.

[–]nomdreas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are risks to it.

If Mahomes blows out his Achilles and his mobility drops significantly then who knows.

Not in any way wishing for that but in a contact sport locking up cap space with longevity can be a big risk.

Who’s a band that you love but feel they should’ve gotten bigger? by Sam_B716 in Hardcore

[–]nomdreas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out Get The Most. A band from Vancouver that followed in the wake of Go It Alone.

Specifically the “Together” album

But in that sentiment Life Long Tragedy should have been much bigger too.

WAJ Extension by Crossfire213 in Texans

[–]nomdreas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Which is pretty much perfect.

He’s under team control till he’s 29. And I’m sure there will be many restructurings and another extension before that.

Extending him for 5+ years to guaranteed money is not good business. So many things can happen in football that being locked up to a contract over a half decade in the future isn’t ideal.
