That is weird... I was just posting in that Philly thread wondering where Johnny Rockets was at...

 

 

I thought Zod took care of your "plumbing"...?

I'm trying to stay out of those discussions.....it's not worth my effort. I was actually on a two week vacation from pretty much everything including this place. Some R & R and a trip up to see the family in Philly/South Jersey around the holidays.

Coincidentally, I went on Angies List today and am going to use Rapid Rooter to cleans some pipes as they have great reviews :)

I was just looking at Angie's list and was wondering if it was worth it. Guess I can't go wrong for $14 and give it a try for a month.

 

I seem to have connections in about every service field except for one....plumbing.

I would highly recommend NOT using Angie's list. Before I elaborate, allow me to make my qualifying statements:

  • I interviewed and hired subcontractors for two major home improvement companies
  • I was a licensed home inspector and conducted real estate home inspections for prospective buyers and energy efficiency audits 
  • I was a hired consultant for major renovation and home improvement projects
  • I spent the last 17 years in the home improvement industry

Anyone who uses Angie's List has to pay a subscription rate, including contractors. Therefore, the only contractors you have any access to on Angie's List are those that paid for the site to carry them. This immediately eliminates at least 80% of the contractors available to you.

 

Here is my recommendation: go to your local Lowe's, Home Depot and Ferguson's Plumbing and ask them who they would recommend. Here's the reason- all of those places I mentioned who use subcontractors to do installation work require them to carry a ridiculous amount of insurance including liability, criminal background checks on all of the employees, a legitimate state contractor's license, etc.

 

Look and see if there's a Re-Bath franchise in your area. Among everything else, get at least 3 estimates in your home and spend some time talking to these people. Nothing is a better judge than your meeting these people face to face.

Just wait for those guys that drive around with some wood in a pickup and stop at your house asking if you need some work done. They do real good work. Make sure to pay them up front in full. They work faster that way.

 

Or the guys who will tell you they have leftover driveway sealer and will give you a great deal to coat your asphalt....

You have to pay to use Angies List? And anybody can pay to be listed?

 

My kids used to bring that "Who's Who" crap home from school that said, basically, that you had to pay to be in there. I told them that was some stupid poo. This appears to be along the same lines.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
