I’ve heard of this happening but I’ve never actually seen it.

What pressure did you think he had it at for that to blow? He must’ve gotten close to like, I don’t know, 100 pounds or something like that. How can anybody be that stupid?

Also...if the tire was filled with Nitrogen before and now adding hot air can have this happen...that is the white stuff you see flying

Do your own research, bro. Don't listen to Big Tire in cahoots with the petroleum industry. You get MUCH better gas mileage and longer wear on your tire treads if you inflate them to 105psi.

More cushion. Less resistance. It's simple science.

but ne's Nicaraguan. Not the same, not remotely the same, as Cuban so he's nixed just because of that.

My brother in law is nicoya but he has lived in Miami so long (and been around my Cuban family) he has a strong Cuban accent now. Ponce just needs to commute from Hialeah to Coral Gables and he'll be able to pass as Cuban in a month or so, meng.

Bruh......I can't even imagine how loud that must have been. I did this with a bike tire as a kid, my ears are still ringing. A ******* car tire?? That could have went WAY worse for this dude.

Had to have caused damage. Possible ruptured eardrum? I’m don’t know exactly how loud that was, but it must’ve been just incredibly ear splitting loud. I wonder if something like that loud can rupture an ear drum.
 
Ponce wouldn't be a very exciting hire but this has to be considered encouraging

I think analytics are extremely valuable and need to be prioritized in our team's approach to the game and our program's approach to team construction.

I also think many in here are conflating "analytics" to be some sort of catch-all to defer to and making it seem as if all analytics should be taken equal.

Any mention comparing the value of F+ for our coaching hires to a baseball team's approach to playing the game or a football coach's in-game decisions based on down/distance/score/etc. seems like a silly conflation to me. Firstly, baseball is the most analytic driven sport by a mile because the data is the least noisy--every player is essentially functioning in a clearly isolated manner in most of their actions on the field.

I think F+ is a really strong analytic stat and we should reference it to assess how our team is doing, how other teams are doing, how good coaches are, etc. But, without a full understanding of the methodology of it and how it may skew results to favor the highest-end programs (more explosive players, more talented players, more games played against competition that doesn't stack up to them), then I think it could be used recklessly as the end-all be-all.

Off the bat, as we look at offensive coaches coming from a G5 level, I can't help but notice how few and far between the presence of G5 teams in the top 25 of F+ ranking is. I would be interested in better understanding why that is. For my understanding of a future OC/DC, I want to be able to reference a multitude of numbers, analytic rankings, raw data rankings, context (schedule, personnel), etc. to be able to form an opinion.

As one who has watched baseball for sixty years, analytics has turned the game into a mindless, idiotic pile of dog**** that is unwatchable and robbed players and managers of their creativity and skills. The point that pencilheaded, mindless nitwits, masquerading as experts forget is that uncertainty is exciting and entertaining.

Yup App State played a weaker schedule, but those metrics don’t take into consideration talent level. They played teams with similar talent and averaged 34 ppg, which was 2nd best in the Sun Belt and also 3.4 ppg better than Almighty Billy Napier.

Although when they played Napier twice Ponce couldn't score more than 16

I know incredibly loud noises can absolutely rupture your eardrum.

Like I said, when I did this as a dumbass kid, I swear it felt like my heart stopped for a second. Like I got a tingle or whatever in my chest, I couldn't hear a **** thing, I stumbled back from the bike like "WTF". It was so **** loud that I still think about it every single time I get air in my car tires, and I'm pushing 40. This had to be 30+ years ago. And this was a bicycle. Having your head that close to a car tire when it blows like that....****. He's lucky he walked away from that.

It's not doing much for head football coaches on 4th down in the red zone either. Let's throw when to go for 2 point conversions in there as well.

i liked this post not because of the linguistic and cultural transformation of your cousin and the suggested course of action for Ponce if Ponce were (subjunctive so therefore not "was") to come here, but because you properly spelled "meng".

Less Cushion - 105 pounds and it will ride like a rock! Now I personally like to have about 95 to 98 psi - It is like cooking with peanut oil.

kidding aside - what's weird about that is it is actually pretty hard to get that much air pressure in a tire from a standard air pump. I think he must have already had a weakened/damaged sidewall.

Exactly. Bicycle tires get popped like that all the time though. I can imagine what a bicycle tire popping sounds like, but I’m having a hard time thinking about how loud that car tire must’ve been. You’re right about him walking away, just any little object would’ve hit him with penetrating force if it came from that explosion. Just thinking out loud about it, just the pressure wave alone could’ve ruptured an eardrum depending on how it was oriented

So I fit hearing aids for a living in this case it isnt the loudness of the tire explosion that would burst the ear drum it would be the pressure coming from the explosion, ole dude is lucky he didnt get a split open face from that blast.

Why would the tires be filled with nitrogen in a stock Toyota sedan or whatever piddling normal car it was
Click to expand...

The guy clearly doesn't know a **** thing about cars, so when he took his car in to get a $230 oil change at the dealership, I will guarantee you they also recommended that he fill the tires with nitrogen "which is "superior to air" for the low, low price of only $20 per tire.
