I can relate. First time I sold something I made the mistake of driving out to the buyer's location. Then it's "I only have x can you still sell it?" Just in gas and hassle it is not worth it to go through the process again, so I accepted knowing I had been screwed

Now when I sell anything I make the location close to me.
That's messed up. People using the fact that you drove somewhere far away to gain leverage in negotiations.

that's how kaepernick got his tattoos

he woke up with them on his body after getting drugged during fresno back alley orgies. no one actually chooses to look like that

What are the chances he was just looking for someone to kiss up his biceps?

They're only really in the Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Delaware area.

I think they are putting some in Florida because retirees from the area like Wawa.

the store locator on their site only lets you search within 20 miles and I can't find a list of stores on their site

I already hate the place

Wolf of Wall Street was good times. edit: I also watched Hot Rod earlier today, good laughs. Isla Fisher is gorgeous. She needs to be in more films.

Excited as hell for tomorrow. Everytime I've thought it would be a close game for the Seahawks, they end up winning a blow out. So I'm keeping with that trend, fuck it! It's gonna be a close game!!!
Seahawks win 27-10

Trading people is legal in Florida?

I'm still wondering how the Superbowl loser's curse is going to rear its ugly head for the Niners.

Maybe they'll get to experience that extra special kind of hell only reserved for Buffalo fans like losing four straight....

A. Kaep uses Backpage.
B. Your best player trolls Twitter for C class porn stars. Are we really pretending all of Gronk's "injuries" aren't just a cover for his contracting that antibiotic resistant gonorrhea going around? That shit fucks you up apparently. Hope he pulls through.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced today that they have named George Warhop offensive line coach.

Warhop joins the Buccaneers after five seasons with Cleveland (2009-13) as the offensive line coach. While with the Browns, Warhop coached tackle Joe Thomas to the Pro Bowl and All-Pro team each season. Warhop also helped center Alex Mack to an all-rookie selection in 2009, while also earning a 2010 Pro Bowl berth.

I would get it if tattoos in General weren't trashy

Pray to the Old Gods and the New that Belly's stash of private Tammy spy footage is never unearthed. Anything with Gisele got deleted immediately, i'm guessing, unless she was on the bottom.

Drove from Denver to Southern Colorado today buying legal weed and such. Everyone and their grandma is wearing Broncos gear. So cool!

I doubt I will post much too busy with family and friends. Everyone watching the mutha fucken Broncos!!!!!!!
 
I normally wouldn't do this, but there is a poster on one of the forums I lurk that breaks down prospects very well. Here's what he said about Mike Evans that worries me:

The film shows he runs a select group of routes and is exceptionally limited in what he can do. He makes Mike Wallace look like a great all-around prospect. Again, Evans does not run crossing routes. He does not run many in routes. He does not run many out routes. As stated in the article, 44% of his catches are on routes where he is coming back to the football. To quote the guy that watched the film and charted what he did; "that high number of comebacks takes away from his experience running sharp-breaking routes like square outs. Although we must consider Evans’ high YAC as a positive sign despite catching so many comebacks."

Is his YAC a positive sign? Sure, it shows he will turn it up the field and use that big body to press past smaller cornerbacks. My issue is not if he can grind out a couple yards after the catch, the issue is, will he get open and make the catch? No catch, no YAC. Again, 44% of the routes are comebacks (or stops where he pushes off), 15% are him going straight down the field, and 28% are "post/corner" but Evans gives a weak break or fades into the route, meaning he really is not getting across the field and is running more of a go than any type of breaking route. Why? Because he does not want to scrub off his speed in an effort to separate. That leaves the rest of the route tree with a paltry 13%.

Does he need to run a spotless route tree? No. But, he does need to show more versatility than a route tree shaped like a pencil someone has chewed on, and that is where he is. He is a straighline guy who will give a post or corner that looks like a crooked go route. He will stop and turn. That about sums it up. And, throw him a ball below his waist. Count how many of those he catches. You won't need more than one hand. NFL corners will play off, give him a little cushion, and break on any stop route. They will have the speed and size to stay with him. The push off won't work. He is not subtle enough with it.

And, I have no inside information on him. I can see on tape when he runs any type of hard breaking route how he rounds them to maintain speed. In fact, he will round them and often fade deeper, which is even worse because the DB or LB can read the rounded route, break underneath, and then he fades away while they make the catch. Seen it. It is on the film.

He is a one-trick pony. Very good trick in college. Probably won't be much of a trick in the pros. Usually those guys fail to pan out. They need more. The problem with Evans, on film, he just does not have it to give and appears to lack the raw tools to develop in those areas. Burst out of a break just does not happen because you want it.

I've read varying reports about A&M's WRs not creating much separation. And that they didn't really run a very complicated offense as far as route trees this past year. I really have no idea. They did demote the offensive coordinator right before their bowl game

Gil Brandt had him as one of the underclassmen he thought needed to stay in school

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap20...ke-evans-would-have-benefited-from-extra-year

Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M: It's hard to make a case for Evans on this list, because he's a good-sized player who posted 1,394 receiving yards, including 200-yard games vs. Alabama and Auburn. But a big issue I have with Evans is that he's not a good route runner. He often pushes off on his defender and gains a big advantage with offensive pass interference. I can see why he didn't want to stay -- for one thing, he's losing a great quarterback to the draft --but I really believe that staying and improving his route-running and understanding of the passing game would've made him an even better player than he already is.

College receivers on a whole won't run all 9 routes - why would they, it's wasted time to teach a 5'9 guy a 7 or a 6'6" guy a 1. I mean, hell, it's not like all NFL receivers can run all those routes well.

I have to imagine the hurry up teams run pretty limited passing schemes anyhow. I can't recall Jeff Maehl up at Oregon running anything that wasn't a 5-9.

Anyways, put me in the "Mike Williams red flags" camp for Evans. Everything about the way he plays reminds me of big old Mike. To me, raw receivers are the most difficult guys to coach and bring up to speed. Defensive lineman, backers, and corners are used to being pulled on and off the field based on the package. A guy that can only play the flanker spot like Evans, well that requires continuity.
 
I don't know what happened to the world.

At what point did music become terrible.

The early 90s were dabes and then we had boy bands and 9/11 and Obama and androgynous boys swinging on construction equipment.

What the fuck, man.
