I have an opportunity to move to Honolulu, Hawaii. Has anyone ever lived there? Is it one of those places that Visiting on Vacation is great but Living there is a bad idea? I would only be there for four years max, but is that three years and 11 months to much?

One knock on the place I have is that it is SO FAR AWAY form Carolina Panthers Games...good thing for NFL Package on Direct TV :cool:

Lived there for three years. Great weather, great beaches, good nightlife, but very expensive. Gas and food especially will be higher than anything you are use to.

If you can deal with the cost, its a good place to live. But its a 5 hour flight to California, so you will not get to visit the mainland very much. And watching football at 9 AM on Sunday takes some getting use to. Although Monday night games are perfectly timed for Hawaii.

Thanks for the info.....The job is great and the place sounds great almost to good to be true. How big is the island (not literal size) compared to a city on the mainland I was thinking maybe like the size of Atlanta or a Los Angles size are??

researched it if you have pets they will be detained for 30 days. Sell the car unless you are able to get your employer to pay for shipping it. Same goes with furniture.

Good news is one car (hopefully my truck) will get shipped so I can tow my boat. I heard houses are smaller then on the main land, but when looking online they seem the same size....

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      By frankw · Posted

      The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep

      I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
