Back from Vegas.....

Welcome back Zod. Last time I was at MGM, I won a car. We all met at the Rainforest Cafe with my aunts, uncles, cousins, etc for a quick meal before our flight and on the way out I decided to play one last slot and the second spin came up 5 jackpots. I thought I won a few thousand, but then security showed up and started asking if I was the only one playing, was it my money, etc. They wouldn't tell me anything else until they "finished reviewing the security tape". While I waited I realized a little plastic plaque that said jackpot wins the car. After a few minutes, Security and Ca sino manager came back and took my pic and gave me a paper with a phone number to Chrystler, you don't actually win the car on top, you win a voucher to get one locally. It was only a PT cruiser, but it was kinda fun experience. Then again, you have to pay all the taxes when you get the car which is like $9k, so that was almost half the value right there.

Didn't you know....Fat Pat's birth name was Mr. Papagiorgio

 

Waiting for him to rush out on google to photoshop a picture of a PT Cruiser into a photoshopped picture of his driveway to prove how great a gambler he really is.

Wow, everything has to turn to smack, I would have chosen a nicer car if I was going to make something up, SCP travels to Vegas all the time, ask him to look for my pic on the wall, it was ballpark August 2008. Not sure how putting money in a slot and pressing a button twice proves gambling prowess either.

Oh and I got a PT Cruiser when they first came out, so I could easily produce a pic in my driveway. It was terribly slow and got rid of it a few months later, but mine was black and the one I won was a darker red, I left the car at the dealership when it arrived and they sold it a week later for me and took a small cut.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
