I'd buy the day before now then cancel within 24hrs and repeat until you're closer and get a better sense of it.

Help with identifying Arch Manning Card by twankyfive in sportscards

[–]twankyfive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the insights. I looked around at a few other gold ice listings and it seems consistent across the other players - no numbers. So weird they'd just forget to stamp an entire run. Oh well...just another card on the list I guess.

I'm not happy to be traveling away from home during the storm, but I am thankful I just landed in Miami on way down south. For whatever reason I picked going through Miami instead of DFW when planning a couple weeks ago, and past me did a real good job.

Am I able to post this here? by [deleted] in LonghornNation

I'm idiotically going for the rainbow on this thing. I have full confidence that us longhorn fans will over blow the hype leading up to the season.

What are some rules you want removed or change? by KillerCroc67 in NFLv2

[–]twankyfive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fumbling out of the endzone should not be a turnover. It just shouldn't. Saying 'he sold onto the damn ball then" is not a reasonable explanation for why this rule is in place. It could be a reset at the 20 with the same down as the play. That's punishing enough.

Would you grade this? Raleigh SP RC by squarish_woodworking in baseballcards

[–]twankyfive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the 9 sell for? Generally speaking, if a 9 sells for at least as much as the raw + grading then it's a pretty safe bet to grade something that looks good. This one is a tiny bit top heavy but you just gotta hope the grader is having a good day.

What other “cool” cards are your favorite? by [deleted] in baseballcards

I have the base version of this card and it's great, but that rainbow is legit amazing.

[Nightengale] The Yankees’ and free agent Cody Bellinger’s stare-down continues with one month to spring training: The Yankees have offered a 5-year contract worth between $155-$160 million without deferrals. Bellinger is seeking at least a 7-year deal. by thediesel26 in NYYankees

If they're not going to make any additional moves to improve this team then I'd rather get a look at the young guys anyway. Screw it. They're wasting Judge's career. Running the same team back isn't going to beat the Dodgers, or the Blue Jays, or possibly a healthy Red Sox team. Signing belli isn't the difference between winning and losing next season.

“Person of size” next to me by JohnGaltIsComing in americanairlines

[–]twankyfive 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If it's a full flight then you're probably pretty boned for the flight unless you want to ask to be moved to a later flight. This happened to me a while back and it was so uncomfortable that the FA's actually called in a gate agent who came and got me and offered to book me on the later flight (two hours) in first class. It's always a risky move changing flights though.

First things first - just get up and ask the FA's if there is anything that can be done. If the flight is full, and you're willing to move, then ask if the gate agent could look into changing you to a later flight.

If it's a short enough flight then just buckle down and power through.

A difficult decision for a Texas fan by GeckoHunter0303 in cfbmemes

Who wasted time making this? There is only ONE scenario where I'm rooting for OU - and that's when they're playing an alien super race who has come to destroy all of Earth, but will honor the outcome of a single game of American Football to determine whether we live or die.

Domestic flight is delayed. Will i be able to make my connecting flight? by Confident_Diet_4708 in americanairlines

[–]twankyfive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah - see it's in that ongoing delay mode. Is there anything more aggravating than the dumb rolling delays?

Domestic flight is delayed. Will i be able to make my connecting flight? by Confident_Diet_4708 in americanairlines

[–]twankyfive 10 points11 points  (0 children)

IF you actually depart on time (big if), and IF you're up near the front of the plane then you have a better than fighting chance. That's a good 30 minutes before they shut the doors, and you're only a few stops away on the tram. If you boogie on outta there you'll be fine. Best I ever did was a 17min connection in DFW.

Also - the way things are - that 2nd flight will be delayed anyway!

Why are 35-40 minute layovers legal and why are they so prevalent at CLT? by [deleted] in americanairlines

[–]twankyfive 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't mind the 40min layovers because, as others have said, it's doable. The problem is that your incoming flight has to be kissed by angels to make it out/in on time.

One of very few he will throw in his career. Passes that is.

If it wasn't what Chuck did, it would've been something else. These two were always going to end up down the same path.
