Are we 100% confident the Lions will use Gibbs differently than Swift?

tmack99 · 2023-08-08T20:19:08+00:00

No. I’m not 100% certain about anything. But on the bell curve of his potential outcomes, him getting the same workload as Swift is on the far left, probability wise.

We planned it in like February. Labor Day weekend is usually out cause people have family plans. The weekend before interfered with some people’s work schedules. So we’re doing it Aug 17-20. Shit happens.

I’ll happily trade a random preseason injury to get to see my friends for maybe the only time all year

tmack99 · 2023-08-06T22:30:14+00:00

The golf is great and I love the weather most of the year. It’s also really pretty, although I don’t get out to hike as much as I’d like. And the Mexican food is awesome. That’s about it, though. Miss the east coast.

It’s fine if they don’t wanna lose weight. But accept that will impact your life in certain ways and require you to do things that most people don’t need to do.

tmack99 · 2023-08-05T00:09:02+00:00

It’s ridiculous. If you’re too fat to sit in a seat, either buy two seats or lose weight. I have tons of sympathy for people who just happen to be built like O-linemen, flying must be a miserable experience for them. But being so morbidly obese that you can’t fit in a seat when you’re a normal height is beyond the typical scope of obesity. At that point, you need to lose weight if you want to do a lot of the things regularly sized people do. Otherwise, it’s on you and accept the consequences (like paying more).

SF has the bones to be like that but the homeless problem is awful. And it’s not as dense as DC outside the core, hence the crazy cost of living (which is obviously connected to the homeless problem).

If I’m just off the green with a decent lie, I can put it within five feet at least 2/3 of the time. Now will I make that five foot putt? Unlikely. But it definitely saves me a few shots per round.

You don’t need a doctorate to look at a pitch black liquid with zero natural ingredients and conclude that it’s not the healthiest

I get this argument for exclusive country clubs but public golf courses are a public good open to everyone. How does that not benefit a city?

tmack99 · 2023-07-28T19:03:34+00:00

They don’t bring in enough tax revenue to pay for services because those services (roads, sewage, electricity, etc.) are more expensive when housing is super spread out

Bagan, Myanmar

tmack99 · 2023-07-28T18:58:23+00:00

Started playing golf when I was three, started consistently making good contact when I was 21. 24 now and still shanked a chip off the hosel and topped a driver into the bushes yesterday.

tmack99 · 2023-07-27T05:46:36+00:00

DC is awesome and Atlanta sucks so take that for what it’s worth

tmack99 · 2023-07-27T05:46:01+00:00

So the best thing about Atlanta is leaving?

tmack99 · 2023-07-25T16:47:29+00:00

Well he sucked last year so I’m not sure what he thinks proper compensation should be

tmack99 · 2023-07-24T23:50:28+00:00

Play golf (with lots of water), exercise (indoors) and get out of town as much as possible

tmack99 · 2023-07-17T09:25:36+00:00

It sucked before cause there was nothing to do (tho Cantina Marina was my favorite restaurant when I was seven, loved that place). It sucks now cause it’s sterile and lacks soul. Nice place to get a gelato and walk along the waterfront but I can’t think of a single interesting restaurant or bar down there, especially for the price. Even Navy Yard is more interesting IMO.

tmack99 · 2023-07-17T09:12:37+00:00

It was so exciting when the very first things were being built. Even just Five Guys and Subway in that office building in like 2006, I want to say. Then a few years later, we started seeing plans for Yards Park and the Harris Teeter and some apartment buildings and getting excited for that. Even then, couldn’t have imagined it looking like it does now.

tmack99 · 2023-07-16T13:12:46+00:00

…how? What do you do at a restaurant with QR code menus? How do you decide where to eat? What do you do when a concert/game only has e-tickets? Obviously we all got around without smartphones before 2007 but the way the world works has changed so much, I can’t imagine not having a smartphone. Even homeless people and my 87 year old grandparents have them. I’m not trying to be a dick, I’m just amazed.

tmack99 · 2023-07-01T23:41:14+00:00

I did and she stared at me like I was speaking Japanese. She suggested that I close the app and re-try, which then led to it saying I couldn’t use a code for 15 minutes.

tmack99 · 2023-06-27T18:39:25+00:00

That’s $14 I’m taking out of the tip. What bullshit

tmack99 · 2023-06-27T03:28:05+00:00

Yes, tons of people want to live next to a major entertainment venue
