The bars that have been regular for me, it has been the wait staff or owner taking care of me.

My best bar...the barman would have my Carlsberg poured before i sat down. And they let us gamble at the bar. And they would let us stay after hours.

Best restuarant...basically same thing. Always a table no matter what. free food, etc

I tip really well

I am seriously considering buying my own place...it's something I have always wanted to do and I'm getting tired of working for the man. I am also a bit of a chicken poo though too and working for the man is very safe and secure and I can't lie, the money is pretty good, especially with both of us working here!

I think almost every man has thought about it at one point or another. I am at a crossroads of sorts also right now and have seriously started considering it. The security is hard to give up though, especially when you are relied on for the household income.

Maybe I will move the family to Canada and go in on it with you? What language do you guys speak up there so I know which Rosetta Stone program to buy?

well....the proper side of Canada in which I reside, we speak an English which is so close to the English you speak at home that it shouldn't be a problem, save your money for cigarettes.

This isn't something I have just thought of from time to time, it's something I have pretty much wanted to do ever since I drank my highschool marks into the toilet and knew I wasn't going to go to college. My wife has worked many years in the service industry and would do a fantastic job running the place and I have another couple who would be interested as well...and he's a chef and she's a public hospitality major!

Are there enough people up there in the cold north to visit a bar Hawk?

you have that backwards....it's so fuggen cold up here that we sit in the bar all damn day!

If I do this, I will be relocating further west. I have a couple of locations that feature skiing/snowmobiling in the winter and world class golf and lakes in the summer. I intend to get as many tourists and locals as possible!

When I used to go to Wisconsin in the dead of there was NOTHING else to do but go to the corner bar unless you liked hunting and fishing and freezing

When I was really single there was a place I would go to a lot - walked in 5 months after I stopped going regularly and the waitress said hi by name and had my brand poured for me by the time I sat down. And I only went there like once a week before...

    • Sure, there's definitely a chance that a fire sale in 2022 could've paid off but I don't think that's a certainty. It's not just about stockpiling the picks and bettering odds; it's about hitting on those picks, having a stable coaching staff to develop them, and keeping the locker room engaged. We didn't exactly have a model front office nor stable coaching staff in 2022. It's worth noting that part of the reason that DJ had to be included in the trade up for #1 was because the Bears needed an immediate, proven WR1 to help Fields. It was him or another immediate first-round pick, not a future one like what was being offered for Burns (whom teams knew that things were shaky with and that they could afford to wait). As for the Eagles, they recovered because the foundation was already in place. Pederson got flak and was ultimately fired (and was just fired again this offseason from the Jags). Their recovery was quick because the foundation was already in place: Howie Roseman and a solid roster (that included a stacked OL, a second year QB, and a veteran defense). Philly had a margin of error that just wasn't available to Carolina. I'm not against using the draft to rebuild, but a full-on teardown comes with real consequences: fan disengagement, a fractured locker room, poor development, a losing environment... and I don't believe that we had the necessary leadership at the time to cleanly navigate it. That's a gamble that I want no part of.  Now that we do have a staff that seems to be in complete alignment and building for the future rather than fighting for their jobs, I'm more inclined to observe their process and see where it leads rather than backseat driving with "perfect" hindsight. 
    • I see it a bit differently considering there is only 20M in cap space. Given how many of the premium positions are on rookie contracts their cap should not be nearly maxed out. Tillis still has a lot of work to do before these rookies will need a second contract.
