Yes.

Stayed at The Signature at MGM Grand. Very nice place.

All I can say is, if you go in summer, it's hot as hell. But then again, you'll be out at night mostly. The strip is very long, but you have to walk it. Check out numerous casinos. There is good food to be found. Great night life. And ... be okay with the fact that you WILL lose money.

It's basically just fun. You really don't need to know much more than that. Go. The fun will be everywhere. You don't need a list of things to do. And again, you will lose money.

I'm out there 5 or 6 times a year. I know all the good places to poop. A good place to preparty is Carnival Court next to Harrah's. Outdoor bar with live music. Then hit the casinos. Obviously with my married-man lack of swag I don't do the club scene anymore so I can't help you there.

Lots of times. Played in the WSOP last year which was the last time I went.

One fun thing to do is hit the pool with your boys - get a Cabana and suck down a few beers while oogling ladies. May sound dumb but if you go to one on the popular day it's a blast. It's not my first choice of things to do but if you are like me you need to get out of the hotel just to stop gambling.

Go to a show. If you are betting enough you can even get comped. My favorite show is O.

Go shoot some machine guns

IF you have cash take a helicopter to the Grand Canyon

Oh and if you need anything (and I mean anything) call the concierge not the front desk. Usually he can get you what you need.

Oh and go eat. There are so many fun restuarants from 5 star to rediculous all you can eat buffets.

And another thing. Head downtown and play $1 craps at the Golden nugget then watch the outdoor laser/music show. Get a fried twinkie.

Just stand at the tables for awhile and watch. You will see these "ego" gamblers walk up and drop $1200 dollars and in ten minutes, be broke. They will walk to the next table and do the same thing. I have always been amazed that when in Vegas, your normal senses do not work, in fact, they become disconnected altogether.

It should be, "the money you take to Vegas, stays in Vegas"

I was at the Rio last year during WSOP.

And you're right, O is great. I want to see the Beetles one next.

I'm there 2 times a year. Will be there in May for my wife's birthday. I've stayed at almost every casino/hotel. I can give you the best places to stay for the right amount of money.

I can also show you an app on Facebook that can help get you comps if interested. So far I'm looking forward to watch Chris Angel for free with the app.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
