fattlipp Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) Not even sure what that stones song is sayin. You endorse this type of long deal making him the #1 QB right now, but probably #12 in 10 years…. or you saying I’m dreaming..

You endorse this type of long deal making him the #1 QB right now, but probably #12 in 10 years…. or you saying I’m dreaming.. The song is the Stones response to being hassled for the next hit, soon after the single 'Satisfaction' was big, when they wanted to chill for a while (as stated by Keith Richards). Not sure if @Old Guy was commenting on songs aging well, or Packers QBs, or hinting we should all chill over Love - I'll let him give his own answer. PS I often link to songs myself if I think the theme is appropriate, as I love my music, but I'm a creature of my time and some will surely hate my links to music from between the 60s and 80s.

OneTwoSixFive Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 (edited) Disco - naah, not so much. Rock, (hard, prog, and the misnamed Krautrock which was more German experimental music than anything else) , Blues and stuff hard to categorise at all. Among those I liked were Yes, pre-Phil Collins Genesis, Hendrix, Dylan, Camel, Jeff Beck, Hawkwind, Deep Purple, Zappa, Police, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Cream, Zeppelin, Aphrodites Child, Gentle Giant, If, Neil Young, Stranglers............. though I didn't hate some 80s synth stuff like the Pet Shop Boys and the Human League. From about 1965 onwards music really played a very big part in the lives of teenagers and early twenty-somethings. Watch a group like, say, the Groundhogs at the Rainbow in Central London and then walk 15 miles back home at 3am (no buses or trains in the wee hours, back then), then go to work that day with no sleep, yeah, we did that. Anyway, back to Love Edited June 18 by OneTwoSixFive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTwoSixFive Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Assuming The Packers aren't decimated by injury this year, particularly Jordan Love, it appears that if you bet $100 now you stand to win $1600 if they win the Superbowl (16 to 1 odds) I'd say this is the best chance to get a great return on a bet for a long time. I can't see the odds being this favourable for the next several years. In January you could apparently have got 25/1 odds, which is crazy. PS. I'm not much of a betting man myself, I just see the potential, so take this for what it's worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

incognito_man Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Well, one caveat: I might bet the money line on a SB opponent if I were to go. I'd pay double to watch a SB win and then nothing for a loss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll throw a bet or two on the Packers each season with the understanding that it's likely a punt. Didn't shoot the Super Bowl shot last year, just to make the playoffs. Would have been even better if DeMeco Ryans would have been COTY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{Family Ghost} Posted Thursday at 04:15 PM Share Posted Thursday at 04:15 PM Are we really going to pay JLove 60 large? I have a hard time seeing him getting more than Burrow and Lawrence's 55 .. both were former overall #1 picks. I know the market is a bit nuts, but it seems crazy to make JLove the highest paid guy in football at this point in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Vegas for the Jerry Rice fumble game and had money on the Packers, almost threw my bet away when they lost, but lucky a friend I was with made sure I didn’t — I had pushed as Packers were dogs. Just was so pissed at everything at that point couldn’t think straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, he doesn't become a narcissistic ******* like the two before him did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{Family Ghost} Posted Monday at 03:20 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:20 PM I saw this proposal coming a few days ago when the news started tricking out about this vacation. I came across one of the threads about the trip on Facebook, and posted something like .. he's going to put a ring on her finger. This is the kind of romantic setting where that kind of stuff happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
