What tie patterns and colors go well with a charcoal suit and cognac brown shoes? by MrHeavySilencein malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

grey suits are the most versatile for ties. stay away from bright red. black will go better with black shoes. any other color is pretty much good to go.

the only thing i would consider is your dress shirt color with your tie. for a grey suit i would stick to a white, light blue for safe colors or light pink for something with a lil more pop.

my favorite color tie for a grey suit/brown shoes is burgundy.

Black overcoat/topcoat bad option? by DSJ13in malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

black is fine. black can be worn with most colored suits, the only thing i would pay attention to are the shoe color. if your wearing a grey suit, black topcoat, probably should stick with black shoes. i mean you can wear whatever you want but brown shoes and a black coat would just stand out but with the right combo could still look good.

the reason navy/grey is probably popular is because its trendy and more versatile. people like their brown shoes. nothing wrong with a nice traditional black topcoat.

Where do you put your phone/wallet/keys? Wearing any remotely tight pants looks silly by dontdrinktheTin malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so many comments about people putting their wallets in their back pockets. i strongly suggest not to for two reasons, first off its uncomfortable to sit on your wallet and has actually shown long term effects on the back (no source is needed, just google it). second is a bit more being cautious, but back pockets are very easily pick pocketed. growing up in LA and being fortunate enough to go to amusement parks or anywhere there are large cramped crowds, i just dont trust people. having your wallet in your front pocket is not dummy proof but it is much more secure.

Wilson, Lacy, Julio, Gordon, Jeffery, Gronk. Hyde would be a solid pick up as your 7th keeper.

[ROSTER] 12 Team Keeper league where you can keep 4 players. Which ones would you keep?? by raptor1523in DynastyFF

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would only keep mccoy if i felt everyone else in the league was going heavy on keeping RB's.


[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ya cam is a tough player to let go especially in a 2 qb league. i just try to think about relative value to the position, and also consider longevity. thomas vs TE's and Cam vs QB's, i think theres a larger spread for thomas but i dont think you would do wrong if you kept cam over thomas. you have a legitemate 8 players that i could make a case for based on a no penalty keeper league and 2 qb's lol.


[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no penalty for keeper draft position?

tough one, but Dez, Jones, thomas, wilson. evans, cam, mccoy, benjamin are my next closest.

[ROSTER] Drop kicker for??? by underthebridgewaterin DynastyFF

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

taliaferro, turbin, stills, dalton. Already know what dalton can do, hes a decent FF qb just inconsistent. Stills and cooks will be the saints options once colston retires, until then they effect each others value. Turbin looks solid but lynch isnt slowing down like we all thought, plus michael clouds the situation. Taliaferro was solid the beginning of the season when he got some good touches. Forsett and pierce are both near their end.

I think i like taliaferro's situation best but all 4 are pretty even in my opinion.

[Commish] Situation involving replacing owners by soggystamenin DynastyFF

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my league actually just had this exact scenario this yr. the commish said he was going to allow it for only teams who did not make the playoffs. some members griped, others were ok with it (both in and out of the playoffs). we decided to put it to a vote. i suggest the same. voting is the simplest way to alleviate league decisions. because there is always someone who will have issues with anything that impacts the league, positive or negative.

i would also suggest if you do allow it, to not make it a common occurrence to keep league integrity.

Good casual shoes for around $100? by hammanmanin malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

easier to show some example. just scroll down and youll see some good combo's.[]=fall|typed&term_meta[]=fashion|typed&term_meta[]=men|typed&term_meta[]=winter|typed

but basically it depends on how you dress to know what you consider casual. all of those shoes would go well with just a simple pair of jeans (denim, olive) and a simple sweater/button up. i mean there are tons of different ways you could dress and all of them could look good. just depends on your style.

Good casual shoes for around $100? by hammanmanin malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

$100 should give you a pretty good amount of options at DSW. they have a wide variety of shoes for reasonable prices plus you can always get lucky on their clearance rack. Or since you have a nordstroms card, try nordstroms rack.

im a frugal buyer, i tend to get lucky ever once in a while. just dont settle, make sure when you see something you like, grab it.

Edit:Im not 100% a nordstroms card will work at nordstroms rack. Not really sure what your looking for, but assuming you want some nice boots to deal with the rain, i found some decent selections at good prices. as far as the quality/fit, not sure about most of them.,cat20303,cat20303,cat20303

Does my suit look cheap? by smoofin malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes of course but tailors can only do so much. A tailor can do nothing about the shoulders, so it is the first thing to check for a suit. Next is make sure the suit fits ur neck/chest/torso. Tailors can make small adjustments if the fit is a little off. (IE move the coat buttons up, down, left, right to adjust the fit, or take in the back/sides if it was too big) thats why people are saying ur coat is pulling in the middle, i disagree, its not bad, and ur wearing a cardigan which is adding uneccesary bulk. Nothing a tailor couldnt fix pretty easy. Another item a tailor cant fix is coat length. But urs appears fine. Arm/pant length are eaisly adjusted and almost a mandatory tailoring item at the very least. Last thing il mention for trying on ur suit, pay attention to the arm holes. The smaller they are around ur armpit the better. Wide armholes will cause bulking and restricted movement.

Sorry for the long response just wanted to make sure you felt sharp for your wedding. Congrats by the way and good luck.

Does my suit look cheap? by smoofin malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH your suit looks too big imo. its hard to tell since youre taking a picture of yourself, but put your arms down to the your sides and look at your shoulders. it appears you have about an inch of extra fabric hanging over. also the lapel is raising quite a bit off your traps even with a slight raise of one of your hands, which also indicates too big.

the suit itself doesnt look cheap, its a nice color. but the vest/cardigan needs to go. your should try on suits with just a dress shirt to ensure you are getting the right size. MFA sidebar has some sizing guides on suits if you need pictures.

EDIT: This suit guide is quick and easy to read!

Potentially starting a new job, need a lot of new, affordable suits. Any suggestions? by TheAquamanin malefashionadvice

[–]opeyum -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

men's warehouse is probably your best bet at that price range. They typically have sales where you can get a decent selection of suits for about $250 (either on sale or BOGO deals). They start and stop their sales like every other week. so if its not on sale today, go back next week.

Facial reconstruction before modern medicine by iBleeedorangein WTF

if he lost his whole jaw, how did his bottom lip regrow?

Edit: this was a serious question. was curious on how the face recognizing new skin/tissue and forms it into a lip based on its location? or did the doctor create the lip? im just confused on how the body knows to make what use to be a thigh or butt, and reform it into a mouth. human body is crazy.

[Trade] My WR for Tannehill by LUCIFERx88in DynastyFF

[–]opeyum -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

well Patterson and Robinson are worth about the same right now, Each of the them are easily worth Tannehill straight up.

Your offer seems alright, me personally i wouldn't accept it, but you never know what people will go for. I say submit the trade offer and if it goes through, you got a good deal.

[TRADE] Michael Floyd for Marshawn Lynch? by illlilllllillliin DynastyFF


not sure why you are being upvoted when jshrlzwrld02 is 100% correct. RB's are harder to find consistency than WR's. in dynasty, the longevity of a RB compared to WR is ridiculous and THAT is why WR's are ranked higher. good RB's tend to only have 2-4 yrs of good numbers while a good WR can 8-12. so yes, producing RB's are much more valuable because they are not consistent YR to YR. that is exactly why in redraft leagues RB's are so heavily drafted.

edit: typos

[TRADE] Michael Floyd for Marshawn Lynch? by illlilllllillliin DynastyFF

[–]opeyum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest question i have, are you trying to win this yr? If you are, id definitely pull the trigger.

reasons: your in a 8 man league (non ppr).

Floyd is the 43rd WR this yr for points scored (roughly 64), not really doing much and isnt very consistent. In dynasty, hes hes ranked anywhere from 15-20th at the moment.

Lynch is 2nd RB this yr (171), but we all know, theres many questions after this yr.

Lets go back to the point of, your in a 8 man league! That means Michael Floyd isnt even start-able this yr, in a perfect world if all teams had all talent evenly spread out, you'd start the top 20 RB's and top 20 WR's (2 rb's = 16, 2 wr = 16, 8 flex)

yes i understand floyd is young and talented but i dont see him ever breaking the top 10 in scoring in any season is may barely break top 20. meaning in a 8 man league where really only the best are being kept, imo hes a bench player and a bye week filler. lynch is a starter in any size league, at least for this season, and will probably be an RB2-3 at worst next season before exiting the league in 2-3 yrs.

TL:DR - i would definitely do this trade if i was making a run at the championship this year. i would be hesitant if looking for next yr. I wouldnt do this trade if my team is at least 2 yrs out from being a contender.

[DISCUSSION]Position values by Seanay-Bin DynastyFF

[–]opeyum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ya, maybe hes afraid of where cobb goes after this yr or if he stays in place. but i agree he could use a nice WR1, but his WR's arnt bad either. if he only needs to start 3, he definitely has 3 capable WR's and im sure he starts 3 RB's with his flex. just tough luck on your part i guess.

[DISCUSSION]Position values by Seanay-Bin DynastyFF

[–]opeyum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for the most part you are correct, but it also depends on your league size and scoring.

RB's will always be harder to come by then WR's, especially in their prime, because of their short careers and how majority of teams are RBBC's.

Cobb for lacy is a reasonable trade. i wouldnt get down just because someone denied it though. in dynasty you have to play the league owner more then the players. because dynasty is so much more hypothetical and a lil bit of a guessing game, some owners will be higher on some players then their value and vice versa. Figure out peoples weaknesses and expose them. Also pay attention to member's needs and if they are competitive this yr or building for the future. If you know the members mindset, you will be more successful at getting what you want.

[TRADE] McCoy & 1st OVR for Julio & 3rd OVR by Jerm_13in DynastyFF

[–]opeyum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

your WR's are your gold, and in Dynasty... WR's vs RB's longevity is a landslide. Id stick with julio since ATL would be stupid not to franchise him and has a fairly good QB locked for a few yrs.

I dont think McCoy is going to make a difference to be able to win this yr. so look to the future.

your WR's are elite and the depth is great. your RB's are young and could all turn into serviceable RB's 1-2 yrs... Hyde, Oliver, McKinnon, ball. Kelce will be a solid TE for the future and is already starting to produce.

IMO Your real struggle is your QB if you are in a 2 QB league. kaep is reasonable but would be best as an OP, not as your QB.

i think with a decent draft this yr and next yr, you could easily improve your team and be a top contender.

any player who can be suspended 2 games in a season and still be the WR1 of the season with a mediocre QB... thats who i want on my team.
