- WTF kind of machine would be out on a counter like that - and that they serve ice cream from??? - JaxSean Mar 22, 14:10 2
  - My guess is a soft serve machine but I don't know the inner workings to say if it can sever digits like that. Poor girl. :-( -- nm - Krusty Mar 22, 14:25
  - I look forward to these opening up in Arkansas, where the workers will be even younger than 16. -- nm - Jovian Mar 22, 14:19
- "managers seemed more concerned with reopening the store than the well-being of their injured employee." ... stone cold creamery. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 22, 14:05
- (did Stephen King write that one up?) - hollywood big shot Mar 22, 14:05
NFL WR's: Mecole to the Jets. Jets then trade Elijah Moore to the Browns. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 22, 13:54 21
- Well, that's strange for the Jets and not that great for Elijah Moore. -- nm - David Mar 22, 13:59 20
  - nmb David -- (link) - Strongbad Mar 22, 14:46
  - They traded a 3rd and EM for a 2nd. More draft capital to package for Aaron. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 22, 14:02 3
    - I'm so sick of Rodgers and this whole trade at this point. They should have signed Carr weeks ago. - Krusty Mar 22, 14:10 2
      - Its just been so ridiculous. -- nm - Jovian Mar 22, 14:31 1
        
        Both teams are stuck. The Jets need him and they can't keep him. Neither is in a good place to bargain and yet here we are. -- nm - Krusty Mar 22, 14:42
  - I really like him as a WR but I guess his demand to be traded last year put him in the dog house with the team. - Krusty Mar 22, 14:02 14
    - Yeah, I feel the same way, which is why I'm frustrated he's going to the Browns. Watson looked terrible last year. - David Mar 22, 14:06
    - And Hardman is garbage based on what I'm seeing from his career stats. 693 yds. and 2 TDs in 2021. I'm assuming he was injured last -- (edited) - Krusty Mar 22, 14:06 12
      - FWIW, he's from Georgia, and I was worried we'd pay a lot for him. - David Mar 22, 14:07 11
        
        So, we gave up a WR2/3 for a WR4/5 and a move up a round in the draft that we're likely giving to GB. - Krusty Mar 22, 14:11 7
        
        Sadly, this whole thing reminds me of what the Nets did with Durant. They had a strong young core they destroyed for stars. -- nm - David Mar 22, 14:12 6
        
        Yup. I'm so tired of the Jets making the wrong moves. I trusted our GM but I get the feeling he's being overridden by our owner who will do - Krusty Mar 22, 14:20 5
        
        Yeah, it's a lot like the Colts, only I think Irsay means well. -- nm - David Mar 22, 14:23 4
        
        I don't think our owner means well. I think he wants a big name he can market and that will sell tickets and merch. I think he wants a winning team - Krusty Mar 22, 14:40 2
        
        the guy who ran off to play Mr Ambassador for four years? - Jovian Mar 22, 14:45 1
        
        Yes he does. -- nm - Krusty Mar 22, 15:21
        
        and he has the excuse of occasionally waking up from a pharmaceutical induced coma. -- nm - Reagen Mar 22, 14:26
        
        He's garbage. Look at his numbers with freaking Pat Mahomes throwing the ball. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 22, 14:08 2
        
        PFF grades him as a 65.8 as a WR. So, that's about WR3/WR4 territory. -- nm - David Mar 22, 14:09 1
        
        That sounds right to me. He's fast as sh*t but never had to be The Man in KC, and wasn't likely to be anytime soon -- nm - St. Louis BaronHawks Mar 22, 15:40
okay Mother Nature fun is fun but this is staring to feel like some Seattle shit now -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 22, 13:52 3
- Indeed!! See the middle of those three ficus trees outside the wall? Today it is a former tree :-( - Meg Mar 22, 15:05 2
  - A victim of the rains? Or the landlord was worried it would fall and damage something? -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 22, 16:12 1
    - Rain followed by wind. Guess it came down sometime yesterday afternoon. Wasn't really big enough to damage anything - but it was *my* tree :( -- nm - Meg Mar 22, 16:17

  - Kendra Lust? I shouldn't stereotype crypto bros, but -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 13:58
- I'd believe that, and I'm sure the SEC acts only on solid legal footing. However, anyone who takes investment advice from someone named 'Lil Yachty'.. -- nm - crash davis Mar 22, 13:47 1
  - Right? I'll only take advice from Big Yachty -- nm - Beryllium Mar 22, 13:52
