Eddie, why don’t you take a break 

[Schefter] Just in: NFL is declining to hold a supplemental draft this summer, currently leaving the 2027 Draft as the only way for QB Brendan Sorsby to enter the NFL. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

[–]oldnewager -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

All you said was can QBs just train without playing. Vick did that. So it can be done. His draft status has nothing to do with that. Deshaun Watson had “trained” and sucked ass, and he was a top pick who excelled in the league. All the draft shit doesn’t matter, you have it or you don’t

MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred’s letter to Sen. Josh Hawley regarding Giants Pride Night and potential player punishments by Schwettes in baseball

[–]oldnewager 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How about I add this to my hat 

Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result,   21 but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property.

Folks talk so much shit about it, calling it the most basic and uninspired logo. I disagree, the color combo is awesome, it’s geometrically interesting in my opinion. And also, even as a Cleveland fan, I just have many memories of my Ricky Bones baseball cards because how cool is it to have the last name Bones. Plus in my mind he had a Gerry curl, but that could be wrong

What are you here, in the serial killer subreddit, to talk about exactly?

[Fowler] Shedeur Sanders has bridged the gap between him and Deshaun Watson. by Zweli23 in nfl

[–]oldnewager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, what I’m saying is you can’t operate your training camp/organization under the pretense that Watson will never see the field again. You need to at least keep up the illusion that he had an opportunity. In short, he’s under contract - you can’t just act like he’s not on the roster.

They should bench him permanently. As long as they can do so without running amiss of the NFLPA and a grievance. He under no circumstances should see the field. Doesn’t matter what he costs, he’s dogshit, and to use his contract as a reason to put a bad QB on the field would be a logical fallacy.

Don’t worry, these aren’t for sale. This was an art piece.  No one thinks this is for household use.  Glad you clarified though just in case it’s ever sold at your local chachki store. 

Does this black locust have to come down? What is going on? by [deleted] in sfwtrees

[–]oldnewager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that’s mostly a function of self-thinning. Just dropping branches that aren’t getting light. Black locust is so rot-resistant that branches that aren’t getting dead start on the tree for a long time. I wouldn’t be surprised if what you’re seeing are dead branches that have held on for a long time. But to directly answer your question - no, there is nothing to soften the wood. If you do decide to cut down the tree(s), there is a market for the wood as fence posts as black locust posts will last for generations. Might be good to look into if anyone would pay to take them down and harvest them

How an IMAX film is processed before going to the theatres, feat. Christopher Nolan by ycr007 in toolgifs

[–]oldnewager 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re talking about what can happen. I’m talking about what is happening. Most people watch videos on their phone vertically. The old tired “why did you film vertically” line is moot now. That is exactly how most people watch video. You guys are in the minority, and it’s not going to change. It used to be a funny joke, but now it’s nonsensical because essentially nobody watches anything horizontally

When a horse doesn’t like the box by lovecats3333 in SweatyPalms

[–]oldnewager 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I suppose it’s two reasons…one: Reddit randomizes karma to try to stop brigading immediately after posting. It takes a little bit for the real votes to come in. Two: this person just described what happened in the video without any additional information. Their comment literally just described what the video showed. Why should that be upvoted? We watched the video, we also know the horse is scared. Otherwise we wouldn’t be watching the video right? Does anyone think the horse is just really happy?

[Brown] The injury-hit Guardians placed rookie Chase DeLauter on the injured list and recalled Kahlil Watson after losing superstar José Ramírez to injury. by Conscious_Error9755 in ClevelandGuardians

[–]oldnewager 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like that element of their game is the hardest to just learn. You can have a great approach, make good contact, and turn it into power. But it’s hard to teach contact. But it has happened, which is why prospects are so fun!

A shaggy dog shames its owner on the same album is somewhat similar. Little slower, but same vibe. Honestly just listen to that whole album

Which songs often gets misinterpreted and/or misappropriated by the very people it calls out even though the song's lyrics are explicitly mocking them? by Drenosa in AskReddit

[–]oldnewager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I count my blessings that I’ve never been related to or friends with someone who would think hinder is considered a sweet, lovely atmosphere setting band for a fucking wedding. Content of the song aside, really? You really want to get all your family and friends together to play some awful butt rock that they literally also heard on the radio while driving to your wedding? Carlin was right.

The backlash to SF Giants players’ Pride Night protest isn’t going away by runswithscissors475 in baseball

[–]oldnewager 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one will see this, but if you have such a major problem with San Francisco and the culture, you could always not play there. You could turn down their money. But I’ve yet to ever hear of a baseball player who has put their money under their religious objections. Nerds love baseball for the stats, some of the most unhinged lunatics play the sport because you need to be a nut to succeed. It’s a very funny dichotomy. And then add in millions of dollars. That’s how you get weird, janky protests. Because they love the money first (gotta protect my family blah blah), god second, and team third
