One of our local sheriff’s deputy was shot in the face

It happened this past Thursday. You probably heard it on the news. It has shocked our community. We knew of him, his niece works with Dan & I'm pretty sure they were customers of Dan's workplace too. He was a real likeable guy. I saw the funeral procession yesterday, it was one of the more amazing things I've seen in my life. Fire trucks blocked off some 35 intersections along Hwy US 1 for the funeral procession. Hundreds of people lined the streets to pay their respects, including myself. He was the 1st Moore County Deputy ever to be killed in the line of duty. My heart goes out to all who knew him, I hear he was a really wonderful man.

Sorry to hear that. He sounds like a decent guy.

A few months ago, one of our city cops got killed in the line of duty at a bojangles that I sometimes stop at on the way to work. One of the employees had a violent boyfriend, and he showed up waving a gun around. Police were called, a shootout went down behind the building, and the perp along with one cop were dead, while another was wounded.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
