Gassing up at BP

I can't gas up at BP or Shell!

Their pumps are all set on a concrete pad about 6-12" thick! On top of that their credit card reader in the pumps are too high!

Why does this make a difference? When you're in a wheelchair it makes a HUGE difference! The only pumps that aren't like that are Texaco, World Gas and some smaller gas stations.

There's a group out of Michigan, Paralyzed Veterans of America that are working and trying to get the bigger conglomerates like BP & Shell to put in a handicapped pump/s. But they BP & Shell won't listen!

So I urge all to boycott those two companies! (Since you brought it up.)

Why would I allow the spill to stop me? They screwed up no doubt about it, but it could just as easily have been one of the other companies. They didn't do it intentionally.

That being said, I buy my gas from a little local place right down the street. Its a few cents higher, but I know the owner and all the profit goes local. But I have no idea where they get their gas from. Could be BP, I don't know.

Plus the girl behind the register is easy on the eyes. :)

if they also opted out of the safety measure that would've prevented it, right? i don't know if other companies have or not.

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
