    I agree mostly with your post, but I think the bigger issue isn't was it a hold or wasn't it (I think it was a very soft call personally). The question is, did they call the entire game the same way. For the other 58 minutes of that game are we to believe that both teams played perfect pass defense with zero PI's or Defensive holds and then this was the only time either team committed a foul? I saw numerous times on both teams thorughout the game that they could have called a penalty but they were "letting them play", which is fine. The bottom line is the refs allowed both teams to play physical all night and swallowed their whistles the entire game until that call. They only called penalties that had to be called like false starts or offsides and let the players do what they wanted except when the game came down to one play and then they inserted themselves. I can't believe you all are making me argue for that piece of shit Eagles team.

    He won’t come close. Not because of Mahomes but the team surrounding him will have to be remade over and over which is pretty impossible. Plus he will have another coach at some point since Reid is already pretty old. He could pull a Lebron and switch teams 2-3 times to other stacked teams but I don’t think that will happen.

    Fixed that for you.

    How many Defensive holding and PI were called the entire game on either team? The refs let them play and both teams played physical like that the entire game but on the one crucial play where they could literally end the game they make that call which is bullshit. By the way, I could care less which of those two shit teams one the game. The ref robbed the fans of a great finish where who knows which team wins the game.

    They told me I want to avoid a jumbo loan as the rates are much higher.

    Thanks. It seems like I have to do a jumbo loan to start with though for a month or two until my house sells but I don't want that long term so hopefully there is a way around that.

    Can you explain this to me like I’m a second grader? I literally just got news that my offer was accepted on a new house. I was planning on putting a bunch down but still had a sizeable loan since I wasn’t taking the equity out of my current house as my offer was not contingent on me selling my current home. I was told I could re finance or do something else a month or two later once my current home sells and dump the equity into this new home as to have a very small mortgage going forward versus a jumbo type loan. Am I now not able to do this? I will hang up and listen.

    It's not rock but if I wanted that 1970s feel for a road trip I would add this song even though it's country. I would also put some Coors light in my trunk to make it feel like I was bootlegging East of the Mississippi.

    He just came back last year to get his wife to leave so he could spend the rest of his life banging other super models.

    sorry but confused on that. You give back the 1 and the 3 to the customer?

    Not sure if this is the correct thread but I needed some help with a realtor quesiton. I am considering putting an offer in on a house in my neighborhood and the realtor that is handling the sale of this house has a big agency with multiple realtors under her. So one of her people is handling the sale of the house and she said if we use another one of her realtors for the sale of our house she would cut the commissions or something form 3% down to 2.5%. Is this a big deal? She made it sound like by using the same realtor brokerage for both ends would help us get the new house possibly since they all work together. She did say one works for the seller and one for us the buyer and they don't talk as that would be illegal. Unfortunately, this agency/agent is the biggest in our neighborhood and controls a lot of the sales/market here for some reason. Any advice would be appreciated.

    This has been a game changer for my putting.

    By far my favorite Dire Straits song and this video is not bad either.

    I was just on a Celebrity cruise in the Caribbean from Xmas to New Years on the Reflection. I was with my entire extended family which we have never done before so it was pretty fun. The big negative was the dining room seemed understaffed due to either covid or cutbacks. The waiters and staff were working their asses off but there just wasn't enough of them so service really sucked. I am looking forward to my July cruise in Iceland/Norway/ Belgium/Netherlands on NCL Primo with the wife and kid. Never done NCL so hopefully it doesn't suck too bad.

    The fact that he can even try to make this argument really shows how downright dumb and ignorant his audience is. Tucker is a world class piece of shit and he knows what he is saying is total horseshit. He also knows how dumb the people watching him are and that they will believe anything he puts out there since they don’t have the ability to think things out for themselves.

    That's my everyday sipper so I was trying to go cheap on this bottle since I don't know most of these people. The guy at Goody Goody convinced me to buy a bottle of Punchers Chance. It's probably shit and I will dump it down the drain but for $30 he said it was a good pour.

    I have to go to a bourbon tasting party tomorrow and was wondering if anyone had a suggestion for a bottle under $50 that would be good to go buy and bring. I don't want to bring the good stuff but I also don't want to poison these people. Was thinking something different (not makers, woodford, wild turkey, etc...) but still decent.

    I feel for you as my Patriots went 8-9 and haven’t won a Super Bowl for like 4 years now. I actually think the Longhorns are on their way back but I usually drink that kool aid all offseason.

    Grabbed these today. Hope they are decent.

    Doc just prescribed 10mg Crestor daily. He said based on family history it looks like genetics may be causing the high LDL as my father and brother have it also. I feel like my life is ending by getting put on cholesterol medicine for some reason. Don't know how to explain that.
  23. Beantown Express 2.0
    Cant wait!

    I hate having to search and bump this thread but after years of being borderline for high cholesterol I just did my annual physical and the labs came back really bad for my lipids. I have to talk with the doctor tomorrow about what the next steps are. I am now at 229 total cholesterol (been 200-210 for the last 20 years) with the LDL at 168 which is the doctor's concern. My LDL has never been that high but spiked on this blood test compared to previous years. Not sure how concerned I should be in him recommending a Statin or if he tells me to go the diet and exercise route.

    Yeah. I had a triple on a par 3 where I got hosed by hitting the ball into a deep bunker right against the lip. Then hit the lip and it wedged on the side of the trap where I had to stand outside the bunker and hit a ball in the bunker below my feet which hit the lip again. Still shot 41 and really didn’t have any crazy long putts drop (none) or any crazy chips that went in or anything like that so if that stuff happens then I could definitely break 40 on 9 holes and 80 on 18 which has been my goal for about 30 years.
