Footwear? LOL Sure, everyone is working on refining their game. Bryce has to rebuild his. There's a difference.

Every team can do this with their picks. We can just do it more than most because we suck. Drafting poorly tends to result in sucking. It took Belichick's years of poor drafting to catch up to the Pats but once Brady was gone and quality vets were no longer willing to come on a ring chasing discount it raised it's ugly head in a major way. Their overall roster is at least as bad as ours. Arguably worse.

I took a look at them for you and the verdict is... unclear. They tout how their product is all natural and how competitors are using harsh solvents, etc. But there's no mention of how they're producing their THC. Can you use CO2 extraction to extract pure natural THC from hemp? Yeah, you can. But at under 3% THC by law, you need a poo ton of hemp to do it and you need very expensive equipment and well trained people to run it. The vast majority of hemp derived THC is used by converting CBD to THC which requires the use of solvents and strong acids. The process can be safely done but of you're doing it while touring your product as being all natural you're not being honest and if you have an all natural product and you're not being specific about your methods I suspect dishonesty.

Then again, if you get into a situation where you need assisted living you're going to chew through a million way faster than you'd think. As long as you can live on your own you can make money go a long way living modestly but assisted living is out-fuging-rageous.

Yeah, "needing" a million plus seems excessive but $50-100k seems low. Somewhere in between is probably the right minimum number for most folks.

They absolutely shouldn't, hence why I keep referring to it as supplementation.

If you have $100k in the bank and you live in a paid for home you can probably make it quite awhile relatively comfortably with SS supplementation as long as you're not being extravagant. Then you hit the first big medical expense and now you're in a financial tailspin.

How deep into retirement were these folks? I just don't see how $50-100k is going to carry you very far even with Social Security supplementation unless you have significant other assets you can also liquidate as needed - which is probably the huge factor missing here.

Cost of living, crippling traffic, total culture change (everything just started to feel forced and fake), having a kid and all our family being on the other side of the country. Basically we were ready to tap out after 14 years and the equity we had in our home was just too much to pass up when COVID hit. Who knew if things were gonna keep skyrocketing or totally tank? Couldn't risk it. Time to go. Honestly, I despise Asheville. It's hillbilly Boulder. The entire vibe is just so forced and fake. If I want to remember why I left Colorado all I have to do is drive 45 minutes to Asheville to see the wish.com version.

It's illegal because of the paper industry. It's remained illegal because of big tobacco then later big pharma. Underlying racism was just part of the sales pitch. I'm honestly surprised that big tobacco hasn't shifted to lobbying hard FOR marijuana legalization. Tobacco use is declining. They need a new cash cow.

I honestly have no idea how you'd get enough for them to even come the transfer fee. Who wants to be obligated to buy a season's worth of Panthers tickets in perpetuity right now?

There's a lot fuged up with our legal system. They're still arresting people for a plant that no one has ever OD'd from while carrying around Narcan. Figure that one out.

100% One of the local county DAs has already been very local about how they plan to prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.

Yep, remember those days well living in CO at the time. I would not recommend heading to Cherokee planning to stock up. Wouldn't be surprising to see checkpoints with dogs. Such a tremendous use of resources.

The offense is going to have to be a lot better because the D is likely to take a step back. Gotta remember we lost two of our top three defenders in Burns and Luvu. Gotta build that side around Brown now.

I just hope Morgan and Canales are the answers and that Tepper has some patience because even if they are the answers this season is likely to be ugly no matter what. Don't knee-jerk fire more people on the meantime. Just let this poo show play out.

The raw physical talent was already there in spades. He still has accuracy issues. He's very similar to Cam in a lot of ways. They both have mechanical flaws that leads to inconsistencies but they both also have the ability to make plays that virtually no one else can with their arm strength and power RB running style.

Agreed. Usually when he missed it was high and it sailed high because he'd drift and throw off his back foot.

Cleaning up his footwork wouldn't have prevented his shoulder injuries.

It's far better than just relying on him to be a super processor. If he has any chance his footwork has to be rebuilt. Snark aside, I'm glad they're admitting it and trying to address it. I'd be lying if I said I expect it to work but you gotta at least try.

It has to happen. Imagine trading up to #1 overall to draft a physically limited QB who has to have his mechanics rebuilt from the ground up. Oh wee mayne.

I've always thought Pepsi honestly just straight up sucks. Coke is way better. RC Cola is Pepsi done right IMO. It tastes like Pepsi would if Pepsi was actually good if that makes sense.

I mean, it's not surprising. We basically have two mid-level FA vets and then a bunch of scraps or guys on rookie contracts vs. arguably the best WR in the league. Our entire QB room makes substantially less than the elite QBs too. Unfortunately, sometimes you get what you paid for and so far that's holding true for the Panthers' offense.

The Panthers going cheap at WR and fielding one of the most anemic offenses in NFL history isn't exactly a ringing endorsement for the concept.

It's why I'm just waiting for them to hit the field. I don't care about the fluff piece stuff. Show me.
