Re: Home Repairs

So... GC and his plumbing supply experts are stumped. Best we/they can figure is that the leaky faucet was due to the bad/old cartridge, but the reduction in water pressure was something else. And whatever that something else is, it got worse during the work to take everything apart and replace the...

Re: Fantasy Football 2023 General Discussion, Advice, etc.

Unless its a 2 QB league, trading Kelce for any QB seems like a bad idea. That is correct. Plus both Burrow and Tua have terrible schedules during the fantasy playoff weeks. At least Tua won't be playing in blizzards. I have Tua and Josh Allen and I've been trying to unload Tua for significantly le...

BTW Rass, I mean the shower itself, not the cartridge. When I screwed the plate thing that covers it all back onto the wall too tightly, I'd have a leak.

Re: NFL Week 9 - Halfway Done

The Chiefs play more press than any team in the NFL, year in and year out. The idea is that they block those guys and it’s a housecall. Otherwise why even call it against them? That’s also a good question. My point remains that Tua won’t become an elite QB until he recognizes the danger in how that...

Re: NFL Week 9 - Halfway Done

That’s also a good question. My point remains that Tua won’t become an elite QB until he recognizes the danger in how that play was evolving before the snap. They had two timeouts and the situation clearly called for a reset. Our point is that it was a great play that rarely happens and that the pl...

Re: NFL Week 9 - Halfway Done

So three (Young, Murray, Mayfield) of the last 5 QBs taken #1 overall haven't been of ideal QB size and the two (Lawrence, Burrow) that were are way ahead, right? If you go back further, the size = franchise QB thing falls apart, but it might be a lesson in not ignoring it. I feel that Young is sep...

The water pressure has been getting steadily worse in our shower/bath (one faucet with a diverter) and I noticed that it’s been starting to drip.

It seems to me that Tua absolutely led Hill into that strip-six TD by the Chiefs.

He looked really good against Michigan in my opinion, despite the result. Michigan was BLANKETING his receivers and he was still fitting the ball into microscopic windows under pressure.

Yeah, Levis looks good, especially when compared to Pickett spraying short outs 10 feet over the WR's heads. I would note though that while he had a lot of great throws, I don't think he hit a single guy who wasn't wide tf open and that kinda showed in the 2nd half. I don't have All-22 to confirm bu...
