Interesting but this draft thing happens every year. And the 53 man roster doesn’t affect the 16 man squad team as far as I understand it.

So what’s stopping him from still signing as an undrafted free agent and being the scout QB?

ETA: I bet his NIL deal was more than a practice squad player is paid and he could still do the practice squad thing. Actual sounds like a win win.

Assuming this really happened, it sounds like a kid that made a quick emotional decision he regrets or he just doesn’t enjoy football anymore and is trying to make an excuse for it.

But more likely just sounds like some bs someone on a message board made up.

Worldwide Gross:

The Curse of the Black Pearl.....$654,264,015
Dead Man's Chest.....................$1,066,179,725
At World's End...........................$960,996,492
On Stranger Tides.....................$1,045,713,802
Dead Men Tell No Tales.............$794,881,442


All in all the franchise has $4.5B gross to $1.3B budget. Doubling the budget for advertising and you are still left with over 70% ROI
Ask mom for a divorce and to take it easy on you: keep all assets, no alimony, wave child support, etc.

You get to keep kids and everything and mom gets another 30 years tacked on plus younger self. Sounds like a win win.
Not only that but the videos on their account (linked from their website) show their paid actor shouldering it and using the front “non” vertical grip. :lol:

Not really setting theirselves up for a strong case.

Good on him. A lot of people would at the very least have to think long and hard about that decision and he knows what is most important.
I use to love the idea of having one game a year in the Cow Palace. Have a Louisiana opponent and use retro unis. Thought it would be awesome.

Until I went in there this past year. The place is in absolute shambles. No ac/heat to speak of, stagnant air, ceiling falling apart, seats are in shite shape, no scoreboard, PA system completely obsolete if even working, I could go on.

Just to put a floor in the place, make it comfortable to sit through a game, and scoreboard / PA you are looking at way more money spent than a game would bring in. That isn't to even speak to concessions and logistics of entry / exit and parking. Not to mention the lost of ticket sales. (6,750 seats compared to 13,200 seats in the PMAC)

The thought is awesome and would be a fun idea, but the money is so much better spent elsewhere for improvements and game day experience.

Only a couple rounds are talked about and I doubt we see anything until the military makes their decision.

If they choose the fury it is going to be good for the round and basically guarantee it’s success but will make availability a long way out. They will have to supply the military with their orders before we ever get to see the round. If the military doesn’t choose it we should get ammo way sooner BUT the round will be more likely to die in the vine and never be produced. So who knows.

Not really. The western is loaded with much heavier bullets and because of the case design the fury has much better magazine capacity.

What is actually exciting about the 277 fury is that SAAMI has approved / designated it. They had to make a new process for the higher pressures.

But now that they have other cartridges may be made in it. So you could end up with a 7mm-08 Fury that has the ballistics of the 7 mag or 7 wsm. And so on.

Won’t be in the m4s. It is based on a 308 and is going to be in a purpose built Sig rifle.

OP. I don’t know if / when announcements will be made but supposedly it is on the shortlist / last 2 still being evaluated.

re: 277 Fury

Posted by The Rodfather on 12/26/21 at 5:46 pm
It has a bimadel case to handle higher pressure. So instead of ~<65,000 psi it is handling ~80,000 psi.

Basically has the same ballistics of a 270 win out of a 24” barrel, but it is doing that out of a 16” barrel. Theoretically you would be close to the 270 wsm when using a standard 22-24” barrel.

Hopefully that made sense. Essentially due to the higher pressures it mirrors the 270win but in a much shorter package.

This. Plus you have to have the plans on file and receive a permit. If they have less than 300 acres then they most definitely do not have the permit for a high fence.

There’s so many options, it sucks you can’t try them all out.


And that is my problem. I don’t mind spending the money on a really good quality release. But you can’t get a good feel for it at the pro shop. You have to put sometime behind it and they are cost prohibitive to try a bunch out. I can’t keep buying and selling / giving them away until I find one I like. I have tried probably 7-8 from different friends and family but that isn’t even the tip of the iceberg for what is out there.

One of the ones I’ve been trying out was the choc. addiction 4 finger. I want to try the 3 finger version of it. It is a damn smooth release. Feels awesome. It is just large with the 4 finger when letting it hang from my d-loop.

BR. That would be awesome. Thank you.

Bowhunters, What Release

Posted by The Rodfather on 12/11/21 at 1:55 pm
What release you archery folk shooting? I’m looking for a new release and have always shot index / wrist releases but have been trying some thumb releases as of recent. I really like the shooting experience of the index release but hate wearing it and the cumbersome nature of them.

Leaning towards a Carter thumb release in 3-finger but not completely sold yet.

What you go and how do you like it?
