Can we just say it out loud; if you post something that might grab the attention of a troll, it probably will. You got to know that when you’re typing. Don’t be so shocked or offended when it happens.

Consider it the “seven sin rule”. Break it and you’ll get trolled.

why limit a good thing to morning time?

btw, did you catch the replay of "last days in vietnam," on pbs a couple of days ago? i'm sure you've seen the movie before but if you haven't, i'd highly recommend it.

Not sure if it’s been posted yet, but apparently Boeser is looking for a 4 year, 7 million per contract

According to Ben Kuzma of the Vancouver Province, Brock Boeser's agent Ben Hankinson "has an appetite for a four-year extension at $7 million annually" for his client this summer.

I did. very good.

Funny you mention it I am on a war documentary kick again and am watching the Ken Burns Vietnam War 10 episode series on Netflix. I personally think it's the best one ever done. My GF is like haven't you watched that 3 times now?? lol

Vietnam in HD on blu ray also very good 6 episodes I think.

Yeah I see these short term numbers as well it seems to be the common RFA theme this summer wanting long term AAV for short term contracts. Explains the non movement by most RFA's who have some star leverage.

i know you've seen most war docs but 2 i can't recommend highly enough (you've probably seen them) are:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Act_of_Killing
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Look_of_Silence

powerful is the word that comes to mind about these 2.

anywhooo, gfy.

I think I'd try and push for 5 years if I'm Benning. If 4 years, it would expire the same time as Bo's contract.

that would be terrible


basically paying him a premium for his RFA years when he has little leverage and then he can bend the team over when the contract is up and he's about to be a UFA.

Cook beef separately in a pan. Cook vegetables and sauces in a wok. Boil chow mein noodles first, then strain and put on a baking sheet in the oven to crisp half of the noodles on the outside, sesame oil and sesame seeds are great if you like them!
