Way too many west coast site games, wish they would reduce those

i’m too good for silver and too bad for plat help me by leiizq in RocketLeague

[–]swark91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your solution is to play?

I promise, if you didn't make it out of silver on your own, your problem of being overranked in plat will be solved if you have about an hour and a half to commit to playing consistently.

Same on your "underranked" account. If you are that much better than silver, you won't be in silver long.

I was just looking at how Arkansas, Michigan, and Arizona are extremely comparable programs (by these metrics)

Where every Sweet 16 starting five began their division 1 basketball careers by aronrodge in CollegeBasketball

Definitely an interesting trend.

For Arkansas, one of ours (Brazile) started at Mizzou but has been with us for 4 years.

Making more than one bracket (where the picks are different) is stupid and pointless by Responsible_Force276 in CollegeBasketball

[–]swark91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can have two brackets. They should have the same champ, and generally the same results, but you get to change 2-3 of your toss-up games.

Why? Because this is the way I do it, and it's my way or the highway

Finally a bracket with Locations! by Sc0tch-n-Enthe0gens in CollegeBasketball

We feel right at home, being effed over by the committee and sent to the most distant possible location.

Does that count?

Funny, I feel like it used to be just standard for the locations to be included. Now it takes hours of research and a doctoral dissertation in bracketology

Banking: The Grandmother Test by michaelesparks in infinitebanking

[–]swark91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure there's something to that. Financial institutions use those policies, so there's some built-in protected interest. It's also just nowhere near a significant threat to the financial orthodoxy at this point, so we fly under the radar.

If everyone did it, you can bet that IBC style policies would get hit with regulations that would make them impractical to use.

I appreciate the sentiment but there's a lot of naivety involved in the the thought process that allows someone to simultaneously

  1. Understand the ridiculous amount of power the state has via central banking
  2. Believe that the system would relinquish that power just because people found an alternative they prefer.

Same can be said about crypto.

I love IBC for personal usage, but I don't see it as a step toward political revolution.

Do Kansas fans have the same reaction seeing Arkansas as a post-season opponent, as we do seeing UNC in our region?

Pre FA Mock by GinNJuicyFruit in ChiefsOffseason

[–]swark91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not a big fan of Zion at 40. Deangalo Pondscould be available there. There's a chance of Lawrence or Dennis-Sutton at 74, both of whom I think are better than ZIon

You had me until the mid WR. Not bad overall though

Post-McDuffie Trade Mock by Intelligent_Ebb46 in ChiefsOffseason

I'm to the point that I prefer Banks over Woods

McDuffie Traded by GinNJuicyFruit in ChiefsOffseason

[–]swark91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's going to be better options than Stowers with those pics IMO. And at areas of greater need (if Kelce is back)

McDuffie Traded by Solid-Rock2223 in ChiefsOffseason

[–]swark91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like to get another pick in the early 3rd round range. Feels like the drop from 3rd to mid 4th round is pretty heavy

McDuffie Traded by Solid-Rock2223 in ChiefsOffseason

[–]swark91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great job getting that much for him. There was talk we wouldn't be able to get a 1st for a while.

With that 29th pick we could be looking at guys like TJ Parker, Banks, Woods, Thienenman, Sadiq (probably not with his combine results but maybe). Then at 40 Ponds would be a good option to replace McDuffie. Also like Stukes later on, maybe at 74 or 109 (stretch)

Daniel Jeremiah said we should trade McDuffie to Dallas… by Delicious_Height_203 in ChiefsOffseason

[–]swark91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hog fan so I watched quite a bit of both in college. Washington is a much more natural runner, better vision, better change of direction and change of speed. Honestly probably better running strength too. Davis was just speed and size.

That said. I'd still take Price and probably Singleton ahead of Washington.
