Where is Deandre Hopkins Going in Free Agency?? I THINK I KNOW WHERE!

5/31/2023

 
hopkins cardinals
As previously reported in USA Today it looks like Deandre Hopkins has narrowed his free agency choices to the Bills, the Ravens and the Patriots. I have also heard the Chiefs are interested BECAUSE OF COURSE THE CHIEFS ARE INTERESTED. 

The Bills really need to add someone like Hopkins to have a shot at winning a Superb Owl / Super Bowl this year. Nuke Hopkins would give Josh Allen a ridiculous set of starting WRs plus an emerging option in Dalton Kincaid. And Gabe Davis is no slouch as a WR 3 but he's clearly not a WR2. Hoping the Bills can pull this off because they just don't have enough to be a real contender right now.

The Ravens and their new more-pass-happy offense under GOAT offensive coordinator Todd Monken could also benefit from adding Hopkins. Lamar Jackson would have easily his best WR of his career and the Ravens would look like a strong contender in a stacked AFC.

The Patriots..... need WRs..... so there's that I guess.

The real dark horse is the Chiefs. Nuke Hopkins wants a ring and the Chiefs are already favored to win the Super Bowl in 2023. Adding Hopkins would be ridiculous and Mahomes would probably win MVP as if he's not already favored. My pick is the Chiefs because they are so well positioned for a title already.

A Denver DUI Attorney With An Awesome Rep Needed Some Help

5/31/2023

above: Ann Toney!
Let me start by saying a guy I know, not me personally, but a guy I know.... he went to Denver one time and got a DUI, this was for alcohol, not pot, and he needed help. He swears Ann Toney is the best DUI attorney in Denver and put me in touch with her a while back for some consulting work. Gotta love referrals. Anyway the first thing I did when I met Ann Toney was to point out that her name sounds like "Anthony" and we had a sensible chuckle. Not really. 

Ann is an expert DUI attorney who has heard and seen it all as a former prosecutor. Now she fights for the good people of Denver and knows all the tricks of the courtroom. Her office can be found at

501 S Cherry St
Suite 1100-2
Denver, CO 80246

and you can contact her for a free DUI consultation here. She also handles traffic tickets and marijuana law consulting for businesses through her two other websites. I look forward to working with Ann for a long time and consulting with her on her website needs.

From her website:

"A Denver DUI/DWI arrest is scary for anyone. The lights, the sounds, and the endless questioning from an army of law enforcement. Your mind races as you replay the event over and over again in your head.

What did I say? How did I act? What’s going to happen next?

Rest assured, these are normal feelings for anyone facing a Colorado DUI arrest. But right now, worrying is not going to do you any good. You need to take swift action to protect yourself and your family. And that means hiring the right Denver DUI attorney to represent you.

In Denver and the surrounding areas, the name you can trust is Ann Toney P.C."

Jahmyr Gibbs to the Lions at #12 is the worst draft pick in a long time

4/29/2023

 
Picture
This was a profoundly stupid pick by a team that I WAS JUST KINDA WARMING UP TO AS THE FAVORITES TO WIN THE NFC NORTH IN 2023 but alas I cannot ride with them any more. The sharp money has moved to the Bears. It ain't gonna be the Packers. Who's winning the NFC South on a side note.

Jahmyr Gibbs is a great player and this is not a knock on his talent. HE'S AN ALABAMA RUNNING BACK WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED TO KNOW? But he's a running back and the Lions / Loins just paid David Montgomery and running back is hella devalued these days and did I mention YOU DON'T SPEND THE #12 PICK IN THE DRAFT ON A 3RD DOWN / BACKUP RB WHEN YOUR DEFENSE IS SWISS CHEESE AND BALLER CORNERBACKS ARE AVAILABLE. 

This was bad. This is not how smart teams draft and it's a bummer because the Lions have made progress lately. I'm personally sick of their annual Thanksgiving game meaning zilch. Gibbs will be an asset for sure but Detroit blew it this year.

A Nationwide Stripper 4 Hire Rental Agency Contacted Me and I am Awkward Now

4/7/2023

 
*voice cracking violently* Some nice people who do stripper rentals across the nation including male stripper rental in Destin Gulf Shores and Orange Beach contacted me about helping them show up better online. So that's what I'm doing. I can't use any pictures as part of this post because it's all somewhat NSFW BUT I WILL SAY THEY ARE ON THE UP AND UP.

They offer easy bookings for bachelor parties and all sorts of other events. Having a birthday party for your grandma and want some spice? Midwest Striptease is your source for some real fun. That's all I know how to say about them.

So check them out if you need some nightlight entertainment, they service 300+ cities with both male and female exotic dancers and their owner is a great dude.

I Rented a Pontoon Boat on Lake Lewisville and You Should Too Because Reasons

12/27/2022

(above: NOT Lake Lewisville)

With a title like that how couldn't this be a serious article? Anyway I met a dude named Michael who owns a pontoon boat rental on Lake Lewisville and he offered to let me try it out for a weekend and then write a review of my experience. So that's what I'm doing. Honestly I had an absolute blast out on Lake Lewisville sitting under the canopy of the pontoon boat, drinking beer and taking in the scenery.

I even went fishing and caught some Lake Lewisville crappie and bass. Fishing on this thing is incredible. While this is mostly a party boat it is also great for fishing....

Michael's pontoon boat is a 25-foot pontoon with a sun deck, afore-mentioned canopy area and rear ladder to easily get in and out of the water. It is equipped with a table, sink & comfortably seats 10 adults    

For your stress-free adventure, his pontoon boat comes complete with an experienced Captain and is equipped with all Coastguard approved safety equipment. How cool is that? If you live in the area you gotta check them out. Boat rental on Lake Lewisville made easy, no doubt.

Home Elevators are Awesome and Here in Texas We Only Use The Best

9/29/2022

 
Home Elevator of Houston
The eponymously named Home Elevator of Texas does great work all over the state of Texas and for my money is the best builder of home elevators Houston could ever ask for. I stayed in an Air BNB recently in the Houston metro area that featured one of their custom installs and was blown away by the craftsmanship and reliability of this stairlift on steroids. It fits three people comfortably and nothing says opulence like having an elevator in your residential property. Very cool. I just had to say something about it.

Not to be outdone, they have a Dallas division that also rules the school

Instead of expanding to the Dallas area using their standard Home Elevator of Texas name, Home Elevator of Texas took a different approach and bought out Elevating Systems, an already established home elevator installer in Dallas that has over 26 years of experience installing elevators. Double nice. So who exactly needs one of these in their house? First, it helps if the house is two story. Or has a basement. Or something. Otherwise not so much.

Home elevators are quite useful if you are needing help getting up or down a flight of stairs. It's a shame to see people have to sell their two or three story homes when they get to an age where mobility is limited. No longer is that an issue. Also, a home elevator can add curb appeal to your property and increase the value of the listing if you do decide to sell. They are low maintenance and run for decades with ease. And it's also fun! This might sound obvious but it's simply a blast riding in a home elevator vs taking the stairs. No matter what you need, these two great co-existing companies can help make your living situation even better. Age in place and don't sell your home because you can no longer reach a second story bedroom!

Rain Means Patio and Deck Waterproofing Season is Here

8/16/2022

 
Sheesh the summer of 2022 has been brutal with a capital B. Brutal. Luckily some rain and cooler weather are on the way. Which means it's time to get excited about waterproofing! Not just any waterproofing mind you, but Dallas Waterproofing. The eponymously named company is located in Plano and services North DFW with patio and deck coatings, epoxy and other fun stuff I know nothing about. I did, however, design their sweet logo for them, see below:
Dallas waterproofing logo
Contact the waterproofing experts today before the rainy season gets here and get a free consultation directly from the owner. They did some work on my balcony and I was very impressed with the quality - hence the shout out. Check them out on Yelp too and YellowPages. Keep doing your thing guys!

There are a ton of doctor's offices in DFW and particularly along I-35 going north from Dallas. Carrollton Texas is no exception. I was recently contacted by the good folks at Highlands Medical and Wellness Primary Care and I can honestly say after visting their office that they are the best primary care Carrollton has to offer - for so many reasons:

1. Affordable prices
2. Extremely qualified local doctors who care
3. Copay that's affordable.
4. Virtual consultations
5. Hundreds of satisfied customers
6. Repeat business

As with all new patients, just be sure to bring your ID for fastest check in. 

Services include:
  • Vaccinations
  • B12 Injections
  • IV Infusion Therapy
  • Joint Pain Injections
  • Minor Surgery
  • Chronic Pain Management

and more. They are also fluent in Spanish and Vietnamese as well as English. Highly recommended primary care that will put your mind at ease as it did mine. Much like Griffith Barbee we are grateful to work with Highland Medical and Wellness Primary Care.

TaylorMade Sim Max 2 Golf Clubs Are Very Nice

7/31/2022

 
I had never played (this is a review of golf clubs btw) with what you might call fancy golf clubs growing up. The notion of swinging a Big Bertha (this is a golf club that may or may not still be popular, not a person) seemed unattainable to me. But I recently decided to get some good clubs - I went with TaylorMade.

If you haven't played with never golf clubs lately, the technology on these things is so absurd. The Sim Max 2's in particular are just ridiculously good for bad golfers like me. A set will run you several hundred dollars but they are the last golf clubs you will ever need. A Sim Max driver will set you back $400 or so.

From the company:
  • Revolutionary asymmetric sole shape to reduce drag at the most critical part of the swing and improve aerodynamics
  • Redesigned Inertia Generator places weight at the extreme low-and-back portion of the club for enhanced forgiveness
  • Speed Injected Twist Face is designed to improve ball speed across the face and increase accuracy on mis-hits
  • Asymmetric Sole Shape & Inertia Generator
  • Designed to provide faster clubhead speed for more ball speed and distance while the rear weight creates high MOI for improved forgiveness

Speed Injected™
Improves ball speed across the face by calibrating each head to the threshold of the legal speed limit

Twist Face®
Uses corrective face angles designed to overcome inherent golfer tendencies on mis-hits and to produce straighter shots

Multi-Material Construction
Creates a head design where weight is positioned precisely in the head for ultra-low CG and high MOI

Thru-Slot Speed Pocket™

Our breakthrough Thru-Slot Speed Pocket technology delivers enhanced sole flexibility to create additional ball speed as well as improved forgiveness on low-face mis-hits

Inverted Cone Technology
This face technology expands the C.O.R. zone of the clubface, resulting in a larger sweet spot and better performance on mis-hits

Let's Get Handy With a Handyman Service Shall We?

8/30/2021

 
handyman example
I am not what you might call a "handyman" when it comes to fixing things around the house. Not even close. Luckily I found a handyman service over in the Bedford / HEB / mid cities area called Fixin' This N' That Handyman Service and they have not disappointed no matter what job I throw at them.

​Phil and his team do expert work across DFW including.... well pretty much anything you can think of:
  • General Handyman Services, such as Small/Large Home or Office Repairs
  • Painting, Drywall repairs
  •  Flooring (tile, vinyl, wood, etc.)
  • Fence Repairs
  • Doors (remove,repair,install)
  • The best roofing Richardson TX has to offer
  • Kitchen/Bathroom Remodels
  • Electrical Services (ceiling fans, switches, plugs, etc)
  • Plumbing (sinks, toilets, showers)
  • Trash/Junk removal
  • House framing and load bearing wall removal
  • Excavation/Grading

and more. It's wild what they can do and they quickly have become my go-to for all my home repair needs. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a local company that stands behind their work. 

From the owner: Family and locally owned handyman business with decades of skilled trades experience. We have been in and around all exchanges for all intents and purposes our entire lives. Our dedicated, proficient, and educated specialists are furnished with the legitimate abilities and tools to take care of business the correct way.
