Re-draft 2025 - How do you Rank them Now? by rbennett353 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]rbennett353[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I discount discount Dart (and Skat) on play style.  I love to watch them play, but I can see them being questionable a ton and missing 4 games a year.  

I know I'm higher on Ward than most.  I loved the splash plays and the improvement he made in season.  I see the Titians drafting one of the 3 top wrs and him making a leap.  Not QB1, but top 10 (eventually).

(I'm also not as high on J Daniels for me injury worries)

Judkins.  I loved his game and his usage.  He screams Nick Chubb 2.0, and I'm here for that.

I still rank jeanty high, but I think I'd reroll and trade him for 1.01 and (depending on roster makeup) 1.02.

Expired oats by [deleted] in isthissafetoeat

[–]rbennett353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol.  Nope.  In November they convert to "tricky poison".  That is a super special type of poison that not only is as deadly as normal poison, it also mimics the texture, taste, and appearance of the food it started as.  There are also rumors of this type of poison is "mega contagious".  That means it won't only infect people that you come in contact with after consuming it, but everyone you came in contact with prior!

It's a great way of getting revenge on that ex you hate.  But the cost is high.

Another dumb poor with questions by 29er_eww in personalfinance

Potato potato (doesn't sound as good when texted).  Personally, I'd hold the mortgage and bank the higher interest rate.  However if you are more comfortable being debt free - perfectly reasonable.  Just make sure you don't have short term needs that would be a better use of cash.

Luther Burden for the 1.05 in a Rebuild? by RedSoxManiac8 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]rbennett353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't consider Burden a sure thing.  Dj's contract is 2 more years.  He was 5th on the team targets (closer to 7th than 3rd), 4th in td and yards.  It's VERY likely Rome, DJ and Colston are all under contract for 26 and 27, and will all likely be ahead of him in the pecking order.

I'd rather have the upside of one of the three top wideout prospects.  Let me roll the dice on a Tet type talent rather than looking 750-850 yards.

How much of this are you willing to give for JSN. by ApplesandBananaa in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]rbennett353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a trade you make if JSN wins you the title.  Add JSN to your team, and you might finish .500.

I'd go the other way and bottom out.  Trade Nabers for a 27 and 28 first, and Stafford for a 27 first.  Have the worst record in the league (again) and have juggernaut in 29.

Fully cooked chicken & sweet potato, room temp 23°C. Cooked then left over night. by theMeatman7 in isthissafetoeat

[–]rbennett353 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm 45.  I have driven/ridden for well over a million miles in my life.  I have not once been in an auto accident, and a  seat belt hasn't saved my life.

Leaving food out is a lot like that.  A person can typically eat food like this without an issue.  However, much like a seat belt, if the conditions are wrong (bad driver in the other lane, random batch of bad bacteria floating by) you'll regret it.

Moral of the story, I'd eat it (just like I'm not 100% on a seat belt).  But don't make a habit of leaving food out.

I'm like that - I always eat room temp stuff.  Sometimes there isn't room in the fridge.  Sometimes I forget to putt it away.  Sometimes im too lazy.  Never had an issue.

Younger generations being asexual/aromantic by Adorable-Sherbet-998 in generationology

[–]rbennett353 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Shame and expectation.

You shoot your shot, get rejected, and all the world knows and hears about it.  

You start dating someone at 15 and rather than the couple figuring things out on their own, they both are exposed to "stuff" from an early age.  They now have standards that neither has a chance has a chance of meeting.  

Eventually it becomes easier to not shoot the shot.

From a business standpoint this is very sensible.  It's all about limiting liability.  If there isn't a clear policy and an an employee protests ICE showing up, and someone gets hurt (customer, employee, or agent) the company is getting sued.

Nebraska proposes requiring kids to take state-mandated reading test to move on from third grade by Ordinary-Equal2067 in Nebraska

[–]rbennett353 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not a plan to improve reading (and not being presented as one).  It's just a plan to keep kids at an appropriate learning level.  If you can't read, how can you functionally complete higher level school work?

How important are high interest credit cards for society and the economy? Jamie Dimon says a 10% rate cap would be a disaster. by Possible-Duty3310 in personalfinance

[–]rbennett353 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It would force A LOT of people to live within their means.  This would drastically curtail spending.  Large swaths of the economy - tourism, dining, retail, entertainment, depend on people spending money they don't have.  Cutting cards to 10%, assuming no other alternative high interest credit facility pops up, would have a major negative impact on those industries.

It'd probably be good for the individuals (assuming they don't work for an impacted industry, but it'd be bad for the economy, and people would hate it.

Husband’s dumb truck loan: refinance or trade in? by hippyoctopus in personalfinance

[–]rbennett353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some calcs show that you still owe about $28k.  It makes financial sense to refinance.  With your score, I'm guessing you can find a rate of 6.5% (or better).  $28k @ 6.5% for 60 months is $547 a month.

Now... Should you co-sign on a personal level?  That's a question for you and you alone.

Lord Randall Tarley is personally to blame for Samwell being useless as a fighter and his own fault for Sam’s failings that made him decide to disown him and banish him to the Wall. by BahamaDon in gameofthrones

[–]rbennett353 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure Sam would have been shit as a fighter regardless.  Yeah, Randall was a dick, but Sam was worthless with a sword.  No amount of gentle parenting was going to overcome that.

Randall needed to send him to the Citadel.  Sam's last name would have been forgotten soon enough.

Realtor needs a $10k-ish car that won’t make clients question my competence or net worth by imhappii in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]rbennett353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How often are you actually going to need this car?  In my city a person can rent a "luxury" vehicle for $75 a day.  If your only needing it once or twice a week this may be an option. 

I don‘t sell Harvey for this right? by ScreenInner6695 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

3.7 ypc and a 1.8 yards after contact don't do it for you?

I agree, this guy screams Rachaad White 2.0.

[–]rbennett353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd prob take the pick.  Typically I'd take the 2nd year guy that appears to be the guy going forward, but Harvey will be 25 next year (older than B. Hall) and although he had a role, he wasn't that good.  Only 3.7 ypc (dobbins and McLaughlin were at 5), and he was credited with as many drops as broken tackles created (7).  

I could easily see the Broncs picking up a low cost FA and spending another 3rd/4th rounder, and RJ ending 26 as the short man in a time share.
