  1. I have been to 36 countries and its the safest one I have been to. The year I retired I went to Columbia and Thailand for a month to try to find a warm place to go for the winter. It is literally cheaper to go there than Florida and AZ where I checked out spending the winter. There is petty thievery there but I have never experienced it personally. Im not out at 2 AM stone drunk, so I dont put myself in a position for that. 70% of their GNP is tourism and they go out of there way to protect it. You dont see a police present either , where other places I've been you notice it all the time. Now the airfare has been up the last 4 yrs over previous yrs. 3 yrs in a row I paid 1180 RT from ORD. Last year 985 , so its coming down. Previous to those yrs, I went 14 times for under 740 and twice for under 600. The weather for the whole yr is 69 to 95 every day. During Dec-Jan-Feb its perfect weather. 69 to 85. I am by the Ocean and its always a sea breeze that makes it much better than inline. In 2019 Thailand was the most traveled country in the world, Bangkok was #1 and Pattaya # 15, where I stay. It is one of the most scenic countries in the world and NOT expensive. I could find a place to live for 200 a month but I like big pools with gyms and sauna . Last yr I paid 320 a month. Covid was dirt cheap and since then the rents have been going up as people try to recover from the Covid yrs which was a disaster in Thailand. The same place I have stayed the last 5 yrs is a condo complex , other renters can pay up to 800 a month, where I have paid much less. If anyone wants to travel to Thailand on a vacation, contact me I have 14 yrs experience going there. I will gladly give advice. Its paradise. I suggest a minimal two weeks because of the length of the flight getting there.
  2. I have been in this league since it started and Adam is the only I always notice off this thread. ( he seems to always win all the time)

    I cant really find any updated stories on Josh Jacobs, does anyone know if its a nothing burger or just not legislated yet?
  4. 7 months a year in Northern Ill, MP (61115) and 5 months in Pattaya , Thailand. Literally cheaper to live than going to Florida or AZ for the winter. 300 to 350 for a nice condo- food 20 a day-6 for a 1 hour massage- drinking is a little cheaper- 9 for phone service airfare last yr was 985 69 to 89 everyday while Im there, where I stay has an ocean 10 minutes away. I have a broken body after plumbing for 50 yrs and need the sun..
  5. He is a projected staple on the OL so he will get a top 5 contract probably unless he gives them a loyalty ( a few mil less). Ryan does pay stars that he wants to keep.
  6. I will check with my friends that were in the league, I am pretty that Mike, Chad and me are back but will need a new body for Scott. He didnt pay his money and I paid it to not screw up the league .

    There is tons of Bears content out there and I watch a lot of different pundits. Its kind of a slow period now. I only watched the first 12 minutes of this video, but the first 2 minutes of the opening is the best with Bears content. IMO Anyone have a better one?

    I dont think they are worried about LT but definitely have a need at DE. Mainly because of the health of Turner and Dayo coming off injuries. Is there someone else on the roster they see we dont? Johnathan Garvin, Daniel Hardy, Jamree Kromah, Jerimiah Martin? I dont see it. Also Street has played outside before, listed as a DT.

    We signed another WR and LBer today. Kaden Davis and Tony Fields respectfully. The WR is a little over 6'1". I suspect we need more height in the WR room which may say something about the progression of Walker.(6'3") I would think its pretty full at 10.

    As a team, if they upgrade it is the 80 to 90 group of players. Before we were trying to upgrade every position, but now DE is the main weakness left to address. Came a long way over the last two yrs.

    I have heard that mentioned before about, Dexter isnt really a good fit for DAs defense. He has the size and 6 sacks last year. That's could get us a descent return.

    I know they are not in pads but a lot of people saying Braxton Jones gives off a positive vibe with attitude and body improvement in camp. JJ is moving well after the injury plagued season last year. Lots of people praising Sweat for his work and body improvement.

    That is going to be the 4th TE, and did leave off the RBs , my bad.
  15. Im not trying to say this is what it will actually be , but just saw this and thought it may show a positive example that is going to become a reality in the great state of Indiana
