Any of y'all been to Costa Rica? Going with my girlfriend next week. Flying into Liberia on Southwest, got a great deal on flights - so easy to go to the Caribbean and Central America from Texas. We're staying near Tamarindo in an Air BnB. Got a whole house to ourselves for a week with a washer and dryer and full kitchen - only $500 for a week! I think we spent less than $1000 on the whole lodging and flights. We're renting a car for the week for about $350 though, and that's expensive because of the insurance they make you buy with it. Going on some excursions and catamaran cruises and etc. Anyone been out here? Seems amazing from everything I've researched!

You will have a blast! Been a few years, and we stayed up in the "mountains" and the roads were pretty sketchy getting up there, but it was incredibly relaxing and serene. We were closer to the east coast and, much like other Latin American countries, there are the nuances, customs and cultural differences from one geographic area to the next.

Tamarindo is one of the best surfing spots in Central/Latin America with a very consistent break- you should take advantage of that.

Heading home today, great trip! Highly recommend Costa Rica. 

You’re so right about the roads being sketchy! We did some exploring to an adventure park and to some of the beaches around Las Catalinas. Luckily we had a little Daihatsu 4x4 that handled driving on dirt, rocks, sand, rivers...it was an adventure driving on those back roads, but I’m excited to get home just so I can drive on paved roads again!

      Panthers HC Dave Canales hints at adding more weapons for QB Bryce Young

      By strato · Posted

      I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner.

      2025 Draft Re-Grades (Or, One Idiot Doubles Down)

      By Raskle · Posted

      How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.

      Who was the better HC - Rivera or McDermott?

      By Basbear · Posted

      I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
