need real advice here, so stop thumping your chests for a minute

i'm getting married in a month from tomorrow and need to figure out a bridal gift to get my fiance. really trying to stay away from jewelry as she's not big on it and that's too simple.

if you got your wife a bridal gift, what did you get? looking for some good ideas

try and think of something she has said she wanted in the last 3-6 months. Any time she has said "oh, I want one of these" or "I wish I had one of those", these always make the best gifts.

bonus points if it's something random or if it's lingerie or something she wouldn't expect to be getting from you.

this is what i've been trying to do, and the two things that i can think of are a wii and an ipod. every time i go up to another chick and run that idea past them they look at me like "are you fuging kidding me" and then say to get jewelry :mad:

i know she wants a wii for the wii fit/yoga crap, but am afraid to get that because i don't want her to look at that as a gift for me as well (cause i'd sure as hell enjoy it too). at least with the ipod, i could get it engraved for free from apple and add something a little personal/romantic to it. but everyone's telling me that's something that i can get her for a birthday/christmas/etc present, which is true

when we've talked about it, all she tells me is "something i'll have forever or something that i'll always look back and remember." :rolleyes:

seriously...with all the money people spend on weddings these days...not sure it's the best time for gifting. If you do though, it will have to be something deeply personal, so that it stands out from the rest of the toasters and cutlery you're going to get from Zod, the huddle and the rest of your family. Lingerie is a gift that keeps on giving, as is breast enhancement. But like someone else said, you hopefully have been listening for the last while and have heard some things she really wants. If not, go away on a weekend getaway together...no necessarily a honeymoon, but just a mini break.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
