Define fun...

It's cold so pretty much anything outside is out of the picture.

Are you able to ride to Myrtle or Wilmington? If so, do that.

Fun would be eating good seafood and having local beers. Someone mentioned going to mrytle beach tomorrow, so that might be an option. Walked to the ocean last night buy man was it cold and windy. Kind of sucks because there's a pier right by the condo. Would love to fish if it wasn't so cold.

Know of some decent restaurants?

Can't go wrong with Provision down on the water in Southport.  Not sure if it's open this time of year tho... I don't get down there too much.

 

Stay away from the touristy places at Myrtle like Broadway at the Beach.

 

We usually hit the buffets down there like Bennett's.  It'll cost you $25 each but you can kill some crab legs.

 

 

Sounds like a trip to Wilmington would be better for what you have in mind.  Plenty of bars and restaurants in downtown Wilmington for you.

Go a few miles south to Ocean Isle and hit up Sugar Shack. Amazing Jamaican food, made by a husband (actually Jamaican) and wife. Really nice people and truly the best jerk chicken that I have ever had. Don't stop in Shallotte for anything. Except Bojangles.

 

The Wing and Fish Company in Shallotte has great fish tacos and if you want to take some fresh seafood back to the condo, Doug's Seafood is right up the street from Wing and Fish.

 

Or venture another 5 miles south to Sunset Beach and try Crabby Oddwaters at the foot of the bridge. Good seafood boil for 2.

 

If I asked nicely and gave you directions to my beach house across the bridge on the island at Sunset, think you could check on it for me? Haven't been down in a few weeks...

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
