Yeah I hear you, some chopshops are terrible.  Ripped every muscle and tendon in my right should and could move my arm.  Emergency room doctor told me it was just badly brused went to a specialist next morning and just shook his head.  Told me within a week or so I would have been SOL. 


Ouch!  Glad you got that sorted, it makes me sick those hacks are protected by the industry.

With that being said sorry about Mattison but d cook 7 rushes over a hundred with a td.  Boom welcome back my man!

Dam Dalvin cook is playing tonight.  I chucked him back in my starting lineup.  Dude went out 11 days ago with a separated shoulder.  That would knock me out of a dart league for at least a year lol.  Apparently gonna play with a shoulder harness on.  Kind of a gamble but he has played before with a harness and had 31 touches so rolling the dice tonight.

I dislocated my shoulder, put it back in and went to bed at about 7pm ( I usually crashed at midnight at that time) and woke up the next morning yawned and stretched and it fell out of the socket again! I didn't need coffee to wake up that morning I'll tell you! I put it back in and went to work (Marine at the time).

Finally 3 years later of getting sick of it falling out of the socket I had a putty platt done on it. Never missed a day from it except for the surgery recovery time.

Dang you are tougher than me.  And the dude is getting wrecked by linebackers with his shoulder all loose goosy.  Maybe it's not that big of a deal at all. 

As long as the harness keeps the shoulder from moving out of the socket the arm should be fine. Tendons shrink back extremely fast. My socket was damaged and thats why it kept falling out and had to have surgery.

I had a big toes that was dislocated that the doc told me was only fractured and I told him it was dislocated I know exactly what that feels like and he ignored me and splinted it and told me to come back in a month. I walked on a dislocated toe for a month and went back and told him it was still dislocated and that time he  x-rayed it from the side instead off just the top and said "damn your right" and tried to pop it back in but by then the tendons had shrink so much he and 2 other guys could not pull it back into place. I learned the hard way not to trust the VA doctors and that tendons shrink fast in that one episode and have a screw in my big toe to this day because of that.

Either way cook 3 rushes 54 yards and j jefferson with a td my Minnesota combo doing work tonight already!

I benched Matheson. Sad

Was hoping to have him this game without cook. It would have been huge for my team.

He was in crypto since 2017. The police is investigating. They managed to "freeze" part of the coins that were stolen.

If I was in the position where I thought too may people knew I held keys to a large stash I would wear a key to a safety deposit box around my neck and give that up to them after a slight bit of resistance. And in that safety box I would put a key to coins that had already been moved just as a fuck you if they ever did manage to get them or if the box ever got seized.


LOL, that's a smart reply.

Lately, many of my neighbors are asking me about cryptocurrencies. I had made the mistake of mentioning about Bitcoin to them, back in 2015-16, and now that prices have shot up, they changed from laughing, joking and making fun of me, to being serious and wanting to know more. I just tell them I had a boating accident, and kindly ask them to never again mention to me about Bitcoin, because it makes me depressed to be reminded of what I had and what I lost. Funny thing, they accept it, and I can see a hidden smile in their expressions, as if they are happy that I lost my corn. Envious bastards...

Low brows are easily misled like that, kudos!

.... However, what other choice do governments have? ...

They have the same choice El Salvador made.

Oh, if only that were true. The UK (we began this with a post about UK taxation/HMRC) is at the very heart of the legacy financial system. Remember that the Federal Reserve's modus operandi was based on the Bank of England's. I would love to see the UK accept btc as legal tender. In fact, that would be astonishingly good. But that would be akin to a bitcoin phoenix rising from the flames of a rotten corpse. I suspect UK plc will be one of the very last to embrace btc. We can live in hope though.

I'm not sure what you mean by the bolded although I have spent zero time researching the Fed as its all obfuscated and hidden from prying eyes.

Maybe you can explain this?

In 1791, the government granted the First Bank of the United States a charter to operate as the U.S. central bank until 1811.[144] The First Bank of the United States came to an end under President Madison when Congress refused to renew its charter. The Second Bank of the United States was established in 1816, and lost its authority to be the central bank of the U.S. twenty years later under President Jackson when its charter expired. Both banks were based upon the Bank of England.[145] Ultimately, a third national bank, known as the Federal Reserve, was established in 1913 and still exists to this day.

The Fed’s reputation for policy competence and independence
owes much more to the role of strong Chairmen in recent years than to any statutory design.  By contrast, the Bank of England was founded as a private bank. Concerns about
independence played no part in its early history and only came to the fore after it had acquired,
step by step, the responsibilities of a central bank.

so, just to boil this down to the essentials:

For anyone who missed the dip, now is the time to try again. If you pussy out you'll regret it in a few months I reckon.


I swear I can predict the dip by when I am fiat broke!

Never Fails.


The danger for us, who know what Bitcoin means, is similar - to be tempted to sell at the "top" of the cycle and rebuy at the "bottom" of the bear market. It sound so tempting, for example if we sold at 20K in Dec 2017 and rebought in 2018 at 3100, we would have had >6x more coins! And this thought was so depressing for me during the 3 year bear market. But there is nothing to be done about it. On the chart it looks so easy, but how many succeeded selling and rebuying with such a huge profit? The odds are much smaller than betting on a single number of a roulette in a casino. They are higher if we aim for a smaller profit like 10-20%, but does it look fine betting 100% of our stash for, say a 25% chance of winning? This is only a rough estimation.

This is soo true, even if you do catch the top which I did the chances of getting back in with the original amount or more is slim for a myriad of reasons.

Mine were mostly partying and gambling.

I think percentage wise he knew he had a better chance to score on the ground then to kick it.  Probably was playing any extra point like that knowing if he hit 1 out of 2 basically would equal hitting both extra points.  That wind was serious. 

I just figured it was the universe fucking me as folk was my kicker on my team fighting for a playoff spot. Grin

Even the field goals they hit them things were kick it and cross fingers no big gust came through that second.  Bill is old school so he probably loved that win more than any other one so far this year.

Yeah he started with the Browns smashmouth IIRC!

They missed their first FG attempt from extra point range after getting goaline stopped.

You're right, I just edited my post a few seconds ago. Still a good strategy with that two-point play.

Yeah it was pretty cool, I was a little surprised at the time but thats why bill is a great coach I guess.
1915  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The American Football Discussion Thread 🏈🏈 on: December 07, 2021, 08:47:00 PM
On a football note last night's game was awesome to watch, Pats ran it down their throats with the Bills knowing it and still couldn't stop it, fun times.  Mac Jones 2-3 19 yards and they won lol.

Patriots tricked them with that 2-point conversion. Bills could have won it if they didn't chase TDs, twice - two FGs would have done it. Yeah, I know wind etc but still.

If there is a vote to be had on this I would vote that only those in the playoffs have a vote. Smiley

There shouldn't be discussions about changing rules/settings this deep into the season, let alone voting, regardless of who makes the playoffs and who does not.

It's two weeks per playoff matchup, you play the same team twice and add the score. Week 14 end of the reg season and a double week per playoffs round is the default setting for all public FF leagues on ESPN.

For future leagues, we can invite more people, expand from 8 to 12 man, add more IR spots, change the schedule/playoffs etc....all this is done before the draft, not mid-December.



I vote for 25 IR spots!

Oh, I think I see what you're getting at.  If I lose and Taco wins, I'll have to play you in the first round.  If I beat Wheelz this week I'll have to play him again in the first round.  Hmmm, tough call.  Damned if do damned if I don't.  Not that it matters, I never dreamed of winning this league anyway.  Besides, any time you and I match up you seem to have the luck of the gods on your side.

Yes, that's what I was thinking. The other part of it is the playoff schedule, which I'm mildly confused about. It says "week 15-16" and "week 17-18". Do we play the finals in week 17? Some teams might be resting their top players by then. Might not apply to Colts though.
Yes that is the way the league is structured, however taking a look at my LM tools I can see I can change how long each round lasts, and the semifinals could take place on week 15 while the finals take place on week 16, leaving week 17 and 18 unused, if the members of the league want to change this then we need to vote as soon as possible about this as I do not know if I could change this once the playoffs are about to start.

I don't think changing the settings one week before the regular season ends is a good idea, plus 9ers won't be resting Deebo, they need every win they can get.  Grin

If there is a vote to be had on this I would vote that only those in the playoffs have a vote. Smiley


Also guys I just want to say that this is the most fun I've had getting my ass handed to me in as long as I can remember!!!

Great league and great time, I can't wait for next year and look forward to ChiBitCTy joining us.
1920  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The American Football Discussion Thread 🏈🏈 on: December 07, 2021, 06:58:35 PM
Despite the low score it was actually a fun game to watch.  The talent of the individual players really didn't play much into the result, it was all about strategy.

the talent of the Pats Line won that game.

Harris and Stevenson looked really good as well.

I don't think I've ever seen a game with so many runs up the gut. Smiley


Just as there is a competition for the last playoff spot do not forget about the race to the bottom Hueristic and myself are having, after all no one wants the ‘honor’ of being the worst team of the league, due to the tie breakers I have an advantage over Hueristic due to the points scored and it seems large enough so the Psychotics will need a win and a tie or a loss from the Cows, or the Psychotics could get a tie and with a loss of the Cows they could avoid the last position on the standings, so there is a lot at stake during the final game of the regular season.

Well all I can say is you better win cause I'm taking those Doggies down! Cheesy

Its an interesting thought experiment on whether we should have considered this pre draft and made our picks with this in mind. Smiley
