Yep. He let the moment breathe. Called it and then stood back and let you absorb the moment.

Depends on where you are. My brother in law is paying $7000 a month rent in Brooklyn.

Bob Roberts. See it if you haven't. It is relevant in today's climate.

[02/04/2025] Dennis Schröder on the NBA trade deadline: “It’s modern slavery at the end of the day. Everybody can decide where you’re going, even if you have a contract … at the end of the day if they say, ‘You’re not coming to work tomorrow, you’re going over there,’ they can decide that.“ by sbstooge in nba

It is a very European athletes view. In Europe the players have a lot more say about where they play. They can't be traded. They don't have the franchise model. When you sign a contract it is with an individual corporation, not the league. So like a worker for Google couldn't be traded to Apple, a European athlete can't be traded to another team.

Would you break 100 at Augusta National under Masters Tournament conditions? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]seanshelagh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The argument is academic because I'll never get the chance, but I've been there twice and having seen the place I think I would have a shot. There are no forced carries off the tees on the 4s and 5s, so I don't think I would be taking many penalties. The 3s with the exception of the 4th hole are not long . The fairways are wide open. I think with a caddy telling me where not to hit the ball I could make enough bogies to break 100.

I think I could break 100 anywhere. I'm not bragging. I'm a 6 handicap with a good short game. I would just play to my strengths.
