Reply to comment by sgtcarrot in Ravens designate QB Lamar Jackson with non-exclusive franchise tag by Cody_in_Baltimore

> Seems really immature

I don't think it's fair to say he's being immature. Football is a business and he's trying to get as much money as he can. Totally reasonable. There are dumb franchises out there that will give absolutely awful contracts to players and he gambled that something like that would benefit him. Unfortunately for Lamar the disaster of the Deshaun Watson contract in Cleveland appears to have knocked some sense into idiots like Dan Snyder.

I do agree that he misjudged his value on the market and would be better off with an agent.

>he is directly going against the voters and the city council to sell our conduits to BGE and we have no recourse.

Wait, do I not understand the conduit deal? My understanding is that it wasn't a sale, just a change in who provides maintenance, which is currently leased out to a different company.

Reply to Charles Theatre Dog Promo by platypusbear8

I enjoy that promo. "Hey, nice to see you!" He gets some popcorn. It bothers me how much left over there is on his collar.

I love the Johns Waters smoking one. I don't think they play it any more, or I've just missed it on rotation.

The one of all the people sitting in the row with the drumming and the clown bothers me. It doesn't make sense. I think they should have just had a row with people making tons of noise, then the movie starts and they all go instantly silent. Then the text comes up, "please no 'blah blah blah' during the movie". Instead, they have the "normal" guy say "quiet down" and then they all shush him. It doesn't make sense. Why are they shushing him? Are we supposed to understand that they're comfortable with general noise, as long as it's not speaking? Are they all together (a clown AND a drummer?) and ganging up on him? If he's not with them, why are they all sitting in the same row? He's like one guy against 6. He'd be better off getting an usher. I think this one is from Stevenson and makes me lose respect for their film school.

Just a few more things to add to it, I made a lot of friends through it and met a lot of really cool people. You also can get access to some of the events they host if you sign up to volunteer for them which is pretty awesome. And then you can get to see a lot of behind the scenes stuff.

Reply to Charles Theatre Dog Promo by platypusbear8

I’ll preface this by saying I’ve never seen that promo before, but I just watched it on Vimeo and I gotta say… my dog is a near identical match to it. Insanely close. He’s super friendly too and even has a red collar. Idk if this is weird or not but if you want to meet up at a coffee shop and stage a picture you’re more than welcome to (admittedly I’d be cooler if you could find the real dog)
