  1. That’s exactly what Rex would say!
  2. I once knew the number two guy in Scientology. I’ve got a pretty cynical view of church money. I automatically assumed there were/are misappropriation of funds all the time through murky channels. But it get that those who don’t believe those types of things happen might think some of that money couldn’t make its way to famous athletes, people who might represent their religion well, and give those involved with the church a chance to hobnob with famous people. Ya, I’m sure that would never happen.
  3. I don’t get all the thread policing. If you don’t like the thread, don’t read it. If no one is interested, the thread will either die or become a blog for Derka.
  4. The LDS church has over $250 billion dollars. If they want, they can just buy a title.
  5. That’s what I mean. The running back room was limited. Baxter wasn’t really getting it done. I’m unclear why they didn’t just burn his redshirt and have him spell Wisner.
  6. That’s exactly the conversation we were having. Are the people recommending gold and commodities the same people that have been recommending them for decades, or did Merrill Lunch and Morgan Stanley look at the inflation outlook last year and advise only their $100M+ clients this wisdom?
  7. It’s obviously early. His roster management and recruiting thus far has been below expectations. Thank goodness Goosby has a brother at Texas. His coaching isn’t bad so far, but they really lack talent. I just quit watching the last few games. Either they are terrible teams they’re playing, or I don’t have any confidence they can win. Maybe the outlook changes, but it’s a long road.
  8. So I have an informal survey question for anyone who has a high dollar financial advisor. Did your advisor move you strongly into gold, silver and/or commodities before the beginning of 2025. We are having a debate about how some people seemed to know this year’s performance was coming, while most did not.
  9. Clark so far has shown nothing. But he does need more time to rehab. So maybe he eventually shows something. Simon immediately showed a little something on the field but got yanked off and buried on the depth chart. I wonder why.
  10. You might be reading the whole situation wrong. They are firmly out of the playoffs and they need to figure out what the future holds for Ewers. This is a chance to find out. If this is what they are doing, they probably also told Tua this as well.
  11. Since Steve Jobs died and Tim Cook took over, Apple has not produced ONE significant new product that derives significant revenue. Everything is a derivative of things Jobs initiated. And the quality and usability of Apple products have slowly and consistently declined since that same day. This shit would never have happened under Jobs. Jobs was an asshole and a flawed human being. But he was also one of the greatest businessmen, if not the greatest, in the history of the world. Tim Cook is a fraud. Apple rant over.
  12. Of course production per $ has to be considered. Did he deliver the required ROI? Without knowing the numbers I’d guess no. BUT, it wasn’t all his fault. The OL and QB was also an issue. And he should get better. And he’s still a highly highly talented receiver who did have moments of excellence. You don’t run that off, UNLESS the NIL demands are out in left field.
  13. this post is really good.
  14. Come on guys. You look like regards right now.
  15. As an enthusiastic participant in the 2023 initiative, who made it three days before injuring myself on a burpee, I look forward to monitoring everyone’s progress this year.
