    I think the Krafts made a promise to Mayo that if he stuck around when Bill was gone the job was his. Vrabel being available was unexpected and I think just happened to far along into the process to pull the trigger on him without doing Mayo wrong. Mayo is just unknown as a head coach. He could be the best ever, or the worst ever but will probably be somewhere in between, more towards the good end I hope. But I sure wish it was Vrabel.

    I'm thinking the same as well. Though especially re Vrabel. Him using one of Bill's tricks against him in that playoff game shows he learned well.

    I think I had a convo with @CttAznRanger about that. I’ll bet there’s a zip tie fix out there.

    I’ve actually just left it broke, lol. The other one works fine as is… just not aligned straight in the hole, but no issues otherwise.

    Oof. I forgot about the chasm of a "pothole". The fact that it didn't cause any real damage is surprising.

    We need to figure out how fast we need to go to just blast right over it. I think about 90.

    Matt the obvious solution is obvious. Flat bed.

    I second this motion. You’d also save money on taillights.

    These would make a good fab bench. The seller has 5 of them.

    They would work outside too! I just thought of that.

    We had a smaller version in our old apartment that we took with us. We use it outside for plants now.

    They're pretty flimsy in terms of beating the piss out of metal to bend it or get a stuck bolt out.
