@3DownNation 1 mistake by a rookie trying to do too much. Unfortunately he was following the example set by 2 or 3 veteran teammates in this game. Secure the ball, get the first down, go back to the huddle. He’ll learn. He looks good.

@OleTimeHardball YES! 100%. Been a fan since then, Stargell is still one of my favourites. Great 3rd jersey.

@uscfan981 How about Damian Warner or Diane Jones-Konihowski? Multi-event competition is gruelling and by definition requires a broad range of athletic ability. DJK could/would have won gold in 1980 boycotted Olympics, Warner won gold in Tokyo with over 9000 points.
Terry Fox is number 1.

@Hania16836 “I wasn’t leaving it there while I shopped”??
Were you in it while you shopped?
Target lots are huge. There is always a spot. I’m pretty sure they couldn’t get it on the hook & drive in 5 minutes.
Park elsewhere next time or if you qualify, get a tag and you won’t be towed.

To the person who called in my car at the disabled parking spot at Target… I honestly just want to understand why.
I was inside the store for under five minutes. Ran in, grabbed what I needed, and came right back out. By the time I got outside, there was already a tow truck lifting my car.
How does something escalate that fast?
I wasn’t parked there long, I wasn’t leaving it there while I shopped—I was literally just in and out for a quick stop.
But somehow that small window of time was enough for someone to report it and for it to turn into a tow.
Now I’m stuck dealing with the tow yard, fees, and all the stress that comes with it, over something that feels like it got way out of hand.
Less than five minutes.

@MahikRani50377 Generous tip and the cash method can save some money at tax time. Enjoy your life - you did well.

My husband and I went out for dinner last night, and something happened that honestly left me confused.
Our bill came to $70, and we left $20 on the table as a tip. In my mind, that felt reasonable. It was not meant to be disrespectful, and we were not trying to make any kind of statement. We simply paid the bill and left what we thought was a fair tip.
But the waiter refused to take it and told us that if we were not willing to tip at least $35, then we should not be dining out.
I was surprised, because $20 on a $70 bill is still a real amount of money. Maybe it is not what some people expect now, but it also does not feel like nothing.
I understand that servers work hard. I know tips matter, and I respect the people who do that job. But I also think moments like this show how tense tipping culture has become.
What used to feel like a thank-you now sometimes feels like a demand. Customers feel pressured, servers feel underpaid, and everyone ends up frustrated with each other instead of questioning the system that created the problem.
So I am genuinely asking: was $20 on a $70 bill really that bad, or have tipping expectations gotten out of hand..., 🤔🤔🤔?
