Its expensive, no doubt. And a big concern. But I think you are exaggerating a little. My wife works at one of the high end retirement homes and the cost is about 8000 per month and is all inclusive (food, most medicine, in house medical care). Of course, the cost may be higher in other areas. If you start out with a million when you move in, it would last about 10 years for one person, or 5 years for two. A more average facility in the area we live is around 5 grand a month.

I don't think the Jets owner has a ring. Or does it count if the team won the SB when you were 8 years old.

That would depend on the law/requirements in the state of conviction. At that point, I would think that mandatory sentencing should kick in.

The person that hit them was traveling at a high rate of speed, and might have been drinking.

Ok

Even if all true, doesn't mean he is washed. Just means we had an inept offense. Him and Hubbard are both decent NFL players. And fwiw, it's an offensive league if Mahomes is your QB. Otherwise, it's still a league that needs some balance (run, pass, defense, special teams) to win

I strongly disagree. Not every receiver needs to get yards after catch or catch a lot of deep throws. Sometimes you need guys that get open and make clutch catches. Thielen isn't a deep threat , but that doesn't mean he is washed. He could and should play a role similar to that of Jericho Cotchery or Ricky Proehl during their time here. The issue last year was we didn't have a Steve Smith or even a Ted Ginn to pair him with, and didn't have a passing game that could get it to those guys if they were open for longer passes.

Your comment is ludicrous.

If Thomas does have a breakout year, it says more about our past teams/staffs than about Canales.

Thanks. Maybe, but it could just be that they agreed to agree in public but had private disagreements. We will never know for certain. But if its true, maybe we should have kept Suleiman.

Says who? All I have seen is rumors and innuendo. We don't know what was discussed behind closed doors.

Maybe he should go and I don't mind going with the new kid, but his only clutch miss last year was a single 60 yarder. And if memory serves, he only had three situations that would be defined as clutch kicks, and he made two of them. And he was actually 5 of 7 from 50 plus with a 54 and a 56 yarder. He was definitely in the top half of the NFL in terms of long range kicks. His kicking was probably one of the few decent spots on the team last year.

It's interesting how these threads go. There is not a single word from the team or tepper about moving the team. It's just an assumption by the author, and yet Tepper is getting blasted for something he actually hasn't said. Unless something more concrete comes out, this isjust the authors opinion with no basis in fact.

If you don't have Medicare part b (the one that cost $170 per month, Medicare won't cover things like ambulance service, wheel chairs, some prescription medication, diabetes supplies, therapy and counseling etc.... One trip in an ambulance could cost as much as $1200 If you believe that Medicare and indeed all health and health insurance should be redesigned, I agree with you. But as far as what is available right now, at this point in time, in my opinion, (based on working with my mom for 15 years now dealing with straight Medicare, Medicare part b, part d, and medicare advantage plans), Medicare advantage is far and away the easiest and cheapest to deal with.

Probably the best all around baseball player ever. Great fielder, great hitter who could hit for power and average, and a real threat to steal.

I strongly disagree and I have direct and recent experience with it. I help my mom manage her finances, and the Medicare advantage plan has been a huge benefit and a great thing for her. The $170 a month you are referring to (Medicare part b) was already being taken out of her account well before she switched to the Medicare advantage plan. It is something Medicare does for additional coverage of prescription medicine and other services. And no, Medicare wouldn't pay for everything, if you only have part a (when you don't have the $170 taken out of your social security). The 20% copay you referred to is only if you have Medicare part b and have the additional money take out of your social security. In addition to the 50 a month, she gets 2000 a year in dental coverage which Medicare doesn't provide. They also have other benefits, such as life alert (which would cost 40 a month if she had to pay for it herself). Not saying it doesn't have drawbacks, but the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.

When I was stationed in Norfolk, the redskins were probably the team of the area. Aside of course from the miitary people who were stationed there and kept there favorite teams. In truth, even in the area I grew up (triad) there were more Redskins fans than any other team, simply because they were on TV every week.

San Antonio is not a larger market. San Antonio itself is bigger than Charlotte, but the Charlotte Metro area and combined statistical area are both larger. Austin is as far away from San Antonio as Greensboro/WS/High Point or Spartanburg/Greenville are from Charlotte. And if you drive that trip (I have) unlike NC, there is almost nothing in between the two. Also, San Antonio would have to compete with Houston and Dallas. Charlotte's closest competition is Atlanta.

I read the article. The only threat of relocation was a rumor they might move to Kannapolis. That would actually be better for me. The discussion about moving to another state was purely conjecture on the part of the reporter. While its certainly not outside the realm of possibility, there hasn't been any actual mention of it.

It goes great with a side of calcium carbonate.

Wasn't talking about Medicare exactly. Medicare advantage is different. The one my mom uses is thru blue cross and blue shield. Medicare Advantage (Part C) | Blue Cross Blue Shield (bcbs.com) My mom has been using it for about six months now. Before she was using a medigap program run by United Health Care and it paid almost everything, but was costing her 400 a month. The Medicare advantage plan doesn't cost anything (the premiums are actually paid by Medicare). Now she does have copayments, some of them for for medicine, but so far, they aren't bad. Hers also covers dental, which medicare normally doesn't cover. I will state though that my Mom has Medicare part b (she pays for it, but gets reimbursed by the employer my stepdad retired from).

Nfl leaders don't look at the population of just the city itself. Charlotte has three of the top fifty combined statistical areas within a 1 to 1.5 hour drive. Charlotte, Greensboro/WS/High Point, and Greenville Spartanburg. Those three statistical areas include nearly 7 million people. Other than Raleigh, the only one in the top fifty within an hour and half of raleigh is Greensboro. So only about 4-5 million people. Charlotte has many more people to draw from. Also, many of the surrounding communities for Raleigh are not native born. If memory serves, many still refer to Cary as Containment area for relocated Yankees. One of the reasons the Canes do so well is a significant portion of the population are people who moved from Northern Areas. Would that population translate into support for a NFL team? Hard to say, but I see a tremendous amount of Giants/Jets jerseys in the triangle when I forced to endure the crazy traffic on 40/85.

Raleigh would struggle to support an NFL team. Lower population than Charlotte and surrounding areas and too much competition from college programs.

Its social media, people like to whine, especially when its someone they don't like at the time. I don't see the point in complaining about something like this (its a good thing overall) but then I generally just scroll past the whining.
