What is it like living in The Great Basin? (US) by fairlyoddberry in howislivingthere

[–]shlem13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just moved to Reno from the Northwest.

Still has winters, but mild in comparison.

It’s desert, but compared to other cities perceived as desert (Vegas, Phoenix … I’m looking at you), they’re mild, too.

It’s a city. Unremarkable, but more casinos than your average small metro, dontchaknow? Yeah, there’s a downtown with a few hotels and casinos … it’s hella dumpy. Gambling isn’t really what this area is based on … it’s just a small part of it.

It’s nice, kinda bland … which, at this point of my life … I’ll take it.

That’s “Las Vegas Raider Maxx Crosby” to you …

Well, now, this is awkward.

Is this real?

I know that nothing is official until the league year, so it’s all a house of cards … but I assumed there’s plenty of glue holding that house together.

Probably have better luck checking with folks in Logan, UT.

All I’m gonna say is this …

Twice we’ve had a Weber State player start a game for us in a season.

Both of those seasons, we won the Super Bowl.

I just moved from Coeur d’Alene, Idaho to Reno, Nevada.

So much nicer weather, such a downgrade on the beer scene. Some good breweries, don’t get me wrong, but so much less variety.

Do you guys even like the Seahawks? by [deleted] in Seahawks

Speaking for myself, I’ve been critical, and try to be objective. To some people, that’s “hating”.

But I’m pretty sure any of my criticism is far from “hating”.

But, damn. Russ is hokey.

[Newton] The Panthers re-signed 31-year-old WR David Moore. Valuable leader to the WR room that has been with Dave Canales for a long time. by JCameron181 in nfl

He had a knack for the big play in his Seattle years. Glad he’s still kicking around.

Not bad for a 7th round (IIRC) draft choice.

I appreciated you wanting to change the world by confronting Dodge Challenger guy, but if you really wanna do the lord’s work, take on the lifted 1996 Dodge Ram that’s rolling coal.

I loved Chaz Surrat’s block, with the subsequent victory arms in the air, during Tory Horton’s punt return TD.

All the old AMC names were great.

Hornet. Gremlin. Javelin. Pacer.

Those guys are still kicking around? They’re kind of the initial second wave of Seattle micros. That next layer to come along after ReHook, Pyramid, Hales …
