The smart thing to do is have at least a couple weeks worth of food, water, and basic supplies in a closet. Doesnt take up that much space, and if you just buy a couple of items of non perishable food every time you grocery shop, maybe a case of water once a month or so, its fairly easy and inexpensive. Just make sure to rotate your stock into your regular meals to keep stuff from sitting for years.

Stuff like dry beans and rice might keep forever, but waste way too much water and fuel to prepare. Canned beans, veggies, fruits, meats and fish are best, imo.

Still no power. 3 days straight now. F*ck man. Like I've been much longer without power, but it seems a lot worse when you're a college student and you can't take showers or use the internet without going to a friend's house.

Pay yo bills mayne!

Finally got power back on around 3 or 4 today.

Greenville looked bad yesterday. Chris went to feed the utility workers, and it was a mess. He was on the cooking truck and a live wire hit him going down the road. It was still during the storm, and he was blown all over the place even in the truck.

He's in Enfield right now feeding the utility workers. He said it's terrible there. His word was "destroyed" for the area he's in right now.

Lots of trees down here. Some roofs gone. Medlin Buick/Mazda, which got hit by the tornado earlier this summer, sustained more damage. My mom's pecan trees dropped large limbs, but none hit the house. We just have limbs down.

      Edge Rushers

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
