  1. I’ve been trying to upgrade QB since I made the terrible mistake of drafting Fields. Early last week I asked a coworker if he wanted RStevenson. He never got back to me, then texted an hour before kickoff to talk about it. We agreed on Mondre and Geno Smith for Tua, and approved the trade. Our Yahoo league has a “review period” for trades and we learned it wouldn’t be processed til tomorrow / Weds. I told him if someone got hurt on Sunday I’d gladly undo this completed (I thought) trade and he said the same. Obviously Tua went off and Mondre was Mondre. My buddy texted today to say he doesn’t feel great about the trade and may vote against it. Apparently Yahoo has a setting where at least us 2 and presumably the rest of the league can vote against trades. He tried to invoke our gentleman’s agreement about injuries. I told him that’s a different story than buyer’s remorse. If Mondre went off for 100 yards and 2 scores and Tua shiit the bed no way I’m backing out of that deal. I mostly blame the commish for not resetting Yahoo’s lame rules. Wtf is with a 3-4 day review period or allowing other owners to vote against trades? But I think it’s a biich move to try to shoot down a deal you already made because of buyer’s remorse. I should add that this is a low stakes work league, this guy is a friend and yes I robbed him blind. Even in a casual work league he is a taco. Who’s right here?

    2nd GOP Debate thread

    Is anyone watching it? Now that they’re all hopelessly out of it do any of the candidates get a spine and actually criticize Trump?
  3. Striking auto workers are greedy but a billionaire committing business fraud to get more favorable lending rates is a-okay. MAGA

    Damian Lillard to Bucks

    Blazers got an unprotected first in 2029, swap rights and a pile of shiit. Grand larceny.
  5. I texted my buddy last night and said if he wanted to vote against the trade I wouldn’t hold it against him. I did that after finding out that under Yahoo rules, a third of league owners need to vote against a trade for it to be vetoed. I figured that only him and maybe the commish would even notice it. I figured this would make him feel better about it. Trade was processed today. He sent me a sad text saying it went through and I said “That sucks” and put Tua in my starting lineup. He’ll probably blow this week. The exciting conclusion.
  6. I was once in Upper Darby and this fat bald guy came running down the street, turned around and yelled “Chink! Chink!” up the street. And a bunch of Asians chased him down and beat the shiit out of him. This would have been 97-98. Was that you?
  7. She should be fine. I work a block away if you’d like me to take care of her.
  8. I’d mix it up with some tough guy talk and gay slurs but you have that covered.
  9. I like when he tells people what to do.
  10. Nobody cares what you think about anything. You’re a yipping dog. Most of the time I ignore it, every few months on a slow day I toss a bone and you fetch it. Understand now?

    There’s no need to make that deal. Fields may have a higher ceiling than Goff but he has a much lower floor. I’d say he’s more likely to get benched by week 11-12 than to put produce Goff for the ROS.
  12. How about I post what I want and you sit there making puckered ass face? That’s worked for us for 20 years now.
  13. I’ve lived in Philly for 20 years and never once was mugged or assaulted. I did witness a bum fight that devolved into a knifing once though. You’d have crapped your pants.

    Lifters/Gym Rats

    Unless you want to brag it doesn’t matter. You can get a fine workout on the Smith machine and it’s closer to a typical weight or squat bench than general nautilus equipment/machines. You can also mix in free weight dumbbells for chest press and lunges every once in a while.

    Lifters/Gym Rats

    You don’t need to stabilize / balance the weight on the Smith machine so it’s easier than lifting free weights. It’s also safer and will give you more or less the same workout, but serious lifters will tell you it isn’t working your stabilizing muscles.
