It has taken nearly 10 years, but I have converted my wife into a 49ers fan. Her first jersey (Juice!) has arrived. 

My strategy has been to buy super comfortable 49er hoodies that she will definitely steal and wear in the winter

A+ strategy; can confirm that it works as this was part of mine as well. I also combined her love of travel with attending away games, so she was basically stuck watching them in exchange for the things she wanted to do in the city.

Does anyone know how to tell your crappy vendor, "Of the eight issues I've sent to you, you appear to have fixed exactly none of them" to a ticket they responded to by saying "This is complete! Can you confirm?" without making it sound sarcastic?

I am... I am struggling...

Personally I find being direct is the best way to go about this. Something like "I have looked into this and unfortunately this issue persists. If you would like to discuss this, perhaps I can provide you further detail as to what the issue is or how to validate the fix."

You could include screen shots or outputs in the ticket basically 'proving' to them that the issue has not been fixed as well.

3 championships this year, all 3 times my rooting interest ran into a powerhouse and lost 🤣

Nuggets will stomp the Pacers in the Finals, you heard it here first

I put up with Warriors fans for a decade now, I expect you all to be rooting for the Pacers in the ECF!

they are a really fun team, especially when they defend.   The Celtics are chokers and are beatable.  I'll definitely be rooting for them.  I really love watching TJ McConnell as well.  Pacers gotta defend though, and rebound.

consider yourself lucky you missed it...I guess??  Anyways, your team has a very bright future ahead.  Unfortunately I don't see them coming back from this.

Up 3 with 10 seconds left and they just crapped the bed. Absolutely can not just hand back a game to a team like Boston. Sheesh.

 

I feel like they are so close, but Nesmith is way too boneheaded and streaky. It's too bad they couldn't have just kept Bruce Brown somehow for his defense, 3 FRPs was probably the best deal Toronto was getting, but of course salaries have to match up

I like Nesmith A LOT as a playoff player though. He can defend like hell, he can shoot, and most importantly he knows his role - he doesn't try to do too much.  I think the future of the team will depend on how much Nembhard and Mathurin expand their games.  If Mathurin becomes a legit, dynamic two way wing, then the ceiling of the team goes WAY up.  

You got the main thing which every team covets, which is a franchise type player in Haliburton.  Now it's about getting the right pieces around him.  He's only gonna get better too imo - I see a lot of Curry in him tbh.
