The average homeowner is going to get a much better job done a lot quicker with a lot less headaches and might even save money when all is said and done by hiring a pro to do any type of significant project. It's just the truth.

Yep. Did a large renovation of an old biker bar that was being turned into an vacation rental for someone. We did all the demo and structural repair, interior framing, plumbing and electrical, deck builds and siding but he wanted to do the interior finishes (T&G, doors, painting, etc) and trim himself. It's been like 6 months and he's still there working every day that I drive past and if he had just hired us to finish the job completely it would have been finished within a month of additional time.

Also, it looks like pure poo, I swung in to say hello and saw that he had all pre-hung split jamb doors and obviously had no clue how to make extension jambs amongst a myriad of other awful things, I just kind of walked about shaking my head.

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      By TD alt · Posted

      After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...

      Canes vs Leafs 7pm

      Canes are so fascinating. Despite inconsistent defense and poor goalie play they keep winning.

      The team store should re-release Dan Morgan's jersey.

      I like Morgan's approach but I'll wait for a few winning seasons before giving too much praise.
