I mean this dude is just blatantly grabbing receivers. It's not ticky tack stuff. It's stuff that would've been called 20 years ago.

Super mega ass defense

Well, that'll do it

Lions' 1st round CB has 8 penalties through the first four games. 5 DPIs. DAMN

Well, I was hoping Seattle would score there just to keep it interesting.

I'm pleased with what I've seen from Legette so far and I didn't want to pick him. He looks like he belongs on an NFL field. That's basically all I'm looking for at this point in their rookie seasons.

Can't be. I was told by many that Bryce was carrying inferior talent at ALA-FUGING-BAMA. Anyone who ever believed that line of bullshit needs to have their damn head examined.

Yeah, feels like a classic Pac-12 game. Basically no D to be seen.

Man, the Seahawks are just getting GASHED. Goff hasn't thrown an incomplete pass yet. LOL

I had a good buddy ride out Irma on Key West. That was idiotic and they got very fortunate.

War profiteering always takes precedent over everything else. That's the one thing DC can always agree on.

People take pride in rebuilding after disasters. Even in obvious flood zones. They rebuild on the coast after every hurricane. They rebuild on the Rockies after every wildfire. They rebuild along the fault lines after every earthquake. People shouldn't be building in flood plains but they do and they will.

Asheville got hit HARD but at least they'll get plenty of aid. 90% of aid efforts will probably focus on Asheville because it's the largest population center a well as being where the money and power in WNC are centered. I feel for the small isolated mountain communities. They're fuged. Nobody is gonna care. They never did.

1916 was legendary. Entire communities got erased from the face of the Earth. Small streams that I trout fish in that are entirely wadeable rarely getting your belt line wet were nearing the 100' mark. One hurricane came through and stalled and dumped a ton of water. Then a week later another hurricane came through and it was just unimaginable. 1940 was the flood I was always told about by my great grandparents. They would've been mid-20s at the time. The whole "bottom" was underwater. "The bottom" being the Catawba valley through Morganton proper. This was basically a 1940s level event for us. Back then all those areas were agriculture fields. All the river bottoms were. It was the only flat land around, it was fertile from the routine flooding, and people knew they had a tendency to flood. These days it's all commercial and retail.

When I saw him in college I always thought he looked like he'd be the bad version of Sam Darnold.

Everyone knew it was going to be bad. I think a lot of people are always going to assume it won't be THAT bad. I knew it wasn't going to be 1916 in terms of water levels bad but I didn't expect it to be this bad myself. I was expecting 2004ish. We got more like 1940ish. It got really bad really fast toward the tail end. Had it not stopped when it did it was gonna get apocalyptic pretty quick. If these new storms forming come through here it's gonna get apocalyptic.

I knew the owner's son. They were reeeeeeeednecks. Like the good fun kind. I have stories I'll decline to share publicly about the fun we had during the development of the course and the early days of the course. Played it many times. IMO new ownership has ruined it. They shrunk all the greens to postage stamp size. The designer was threatening to force them to remove his name from it but not sure he ever followed through.

Ugh. That sucks bad but I'm not surprised.

Did I mention that the helicopter traffic was insane?

The biggest problem is David Tepper, Bryce is just the primary symptom.

This is the parking lot at Western Piedmont Community College. The power companies are using it for a staging area. They're absolutely busting their asses. They deserve a lot of credit. Still expecting to probably be out of power here at the house for several more days at least but we're fine. Generator is humming along.

I'd shop him to contenders with need at the deadline. He's playing well but he's a headcase. That's why the Steelers were happy to ship him off for a 6th. I'd honestly rather have good draft compensation than sink big guaranteed money into a guy who might be a taking time bomb. I'd definitely keep him through the season and take the comp pick afterwards if we were developing a young QB but that's just not the case.

That sucks. Probably a pretty good chance we've seen the last of him on an NFL field. He was already starting to talk retirement and he'll have a grueling rehab ahead of him coming off of two seasons where he was barely able to see the field due to injuries. Bro, your body is telling you it's time.

Just got off the phone with insurance adjuster. They're going to use every bit of fine print to deny coverage of everything. That tree down that is going to take out the fence when the limb holding it up snaps? Well, it hasn't actually hit the fence so that won't be covered. So I just need to wait for it to finish falling? No, you have to mitigate that. I've noted you saying that it hasn't hit the fence yet so that unfortunately will not be covered. You driveway? That was caused by a flood. Not covered. What about the portion of the driveway that wasn't flooded that was just eroded by runoff? Still a flood, not covered. Cool. I'm cancelling every bit of insurance I carry that isn't required by my mortgage company for the house and the state of NC for vehicle liability. I won't pay an additional dime. Gonna be awesome paying these rate hikes on the backend of this for nothing.
