  1. Current pricing may be higher but most existing customers (like Bieber) paid $250k. I believe they have sold around 200 tickets? They are refundable though I believe.
  2. Looks to me like pilot completely unweighted their inside peg and you don't want to do that as it drops the bike into the corner (kind of counter-intuitively). edit: imo my explanation is just a more concise version of NYTransplant's
  3. Should have saved that gif for this one
  4. Buy/sell Majors at center all season.
  5. yep
  6. We inherently recognize how debilitating some drug addictions can be but for some reason don't recognize that eating has to be the strongest compulsion of all. I don't like to dunk on the fatties because I'm predisposed to be skinny genetically or whatever (an aside is I'm not addicted to other things, quit smoking one time only etc.). There but for the grace of God go I. If we can sympathize with an oxy addict why can't we understand that some folks can't stop eating? All that said the fact that everybody everywhere seems to be getting fatter points to a larger problem than self control. We can rage against that but we'll still be fat.
  7. Well "traditionally" that type and amount of calories was never widely available at today's prices. That dude just sounds like a crazy person. edit: not that I've ever turned down BBQ, burgers, or Tex-Mex. Traditionally.
  8. From Five Guys, a particular burger establishment. Yes. Yes I do.
  9. Five Guys
  10. I'm about to order a 1,100 calorie cheeseburger (five guys bacon cheeseburger). But I'm on a diet so no fries!! /csb Their fries are listed at 530 calories which has to be a lie. According to the Google a lb of fries is 1,415 calories. If you've eaten at FG you know they pile on the fries, I bet 1,000 calories. edit: one thing you notice when you cut carbs is you lose your appetite for them. No way in hell I would want to eat an entire serving of FG fries these days. Also I changed my mind and ordered the little cheeseburger. Only 700 calories!
  11. I'd rather read how the Olineman kicked whoever's ass in an unprecedentedly vicious fashion. Offseason.
  12. 1. I'm 6'1" and 195, and about 10 lbs overweight IMO 2. Brisket thinks we don't read the Hey Steel Shank! thread? 3. Sugar is not price-subsidized, we pay about 50% more than the world price. As a result there is no sugar in anything I can find outside of Mexican Coke. As Celery pointed out like on page 2 it is corn. Something like 50% of your avg. grocery store by weight is corn. May be a semantic point as I'm not sure if anybody thinks swapping the HFCS or whatever w/ sugar would do any good. 4. Societal pressure, my most recent job we ate lunch as a group 3 times a week, 95% of the time at a Mexican food place (915). If you leave, say, more than 25% of your food on the plate the waiter person will ask about it. Also during this time that was my only meal of the day. And I'm still fat 5. Shout out to San Antonio peeps for being the fattest. edit, forgot about 6. Federal food policies that resulted in subbing carbs for fat is a big culprit IMO but not the only one. That said I don't trust the govt. to fix this problem, at least not without creating another, possibly worse one.
  13. Conservative-shaming is def effective tho.
  14. ? The only difference I can think of is the withholding % is higher to make up the diff.
  15. Why do you need the exact moment?
  16. I guess the follow up is how does that square w/ anti-trust laws? The schools, through the NCAA, are still colluding to not compensate the players (as opposed to setting/fixing the price paid). Either way everybody gets an F250 via various NIL agreements I guess? Will that (loaded F250) be like the rookie contract for P5? How various boosters & etc. in different college towns make use of this will be interesting. Instead of networking to fund a coaches buyout they can put together a lucrative NIL deal to recruit a hot QB (portal or HS). Does anybody have to legit use the NIL? What if I want like a Fathead of Q. Ewers in my man cave, and I'll pay $1m? eta provided he enrolls at Texas of course. Can I do that (I mean I cannot, because I don't have $1M, but hypothetically)?
  17. Race to the bottom. Already posited upthread I think but what's to stop schools from paying players directly? They currently are using the players' NIL w/out any compensation, this fixes that glitch so they can just pay them. Did I miss where the brain trust addressed that in this thread? ianafl
  18. When I was in the ohl fill my crew (125% Mexican) was obsessed with cartel snuff videos, and were always texting and otherwise trying to get me to watch them. wtf
  19. Don't know about you but I have time to be angry with both. ymmv
  20. LeBron James is only to be discussed in CR.
  21. I mean, if we can run it well enough to call play action 80% of the time then we're going to win 9 games. Yeah. edit restated: you have to be able to run the ball for play action to work. If we can run block like Bama, well...
