  1. Having a WR 2 that can be WR 1 if he’s hurt has been an issue going on 2 plus years now. Yes. Yes it is. When they get that guy I don’t particularly care. My preference today after the top 3 are gone: 1. Legette 2. Worthy 3. Franklin 4. Mitchell 5. Polk - he needs reevaluating. This will change weekly lol.
  2. Don’t tell me the bureaucracy isn’t trying to rig this to “improve” SAI in order to get more aid - especially those they think “don’t need it.” These forms were supposed to come out in October. They were delayed 3 times into MARCH. They’ll tell you it’s because the changes they made - that they had 3 years to figure out. This number tells students what they can pay and thus help decide which least over priced college to pick. Yesterday - of course Friday - another colossal F up - families got numbers that were likely to low - whoops our bad: Hundreds of thousands of financial aid applications need to be fixed after latest calculation error WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Education Department said it has discovered a calculation error in hundreds of thousands of student financial aid applications sent to colleges this month and will need to reprocess them — a blunder that follows a series of others and threatens further delays to this year’s college applications. A vendor working for the federal government incorrectly calculated a financial aid formula for more than 200,000 students, the department said Friday. The information was sent to colleges to help them prepare financial aid packages but now needs to be recalculated — even as the department works through a backlog of more than 4 million other financial aid applications. A statement from the Education Department says the problem won’t affect 1.3 million applications that were processed correctly and distributed to colleges this month. Officials said they have fixed the error and it “will not affect future records.” “This is another unforced error that will likely cause more processing delays for students,” said Justin Draeger, president and CEO of the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators. After so many delays, he added, “Every error adds up and will be felt acutely by every student who is counting on need-based financial aid to make their postsecondary dreams a reality.” The latest misstep has to do with the Student Aid Index, a new formula used to determine students’ level of financial need after they submit the FAFSA application. For some students, the department forgot to factor in certain financial assets including investments, savings and total cash, according to an agency memo sent to colleges on Friday. It resulted in a lower Student Aid Index for those students — indicating they have more financial need than they do in reality. While the department fixes those students’ records, it’s encouraging colleges to make their own calculations and craft “a tentative aid package.” Draeger pushed against that idea, saying colleges can only work with “valid and correct data.” “It is not feasible or realistic to send out incorrect FAFSA data and ask thousands of schools to make real-time calculations and adjustments to the federal formula,” he said. https://apnews.com/article/fafsa-aid-college-admissions-miscalculation-delay-6edb28219068fd19428b786635f09282 The changes of course continue to punish parents that made good decisions and stayed married. If you had more than 3 kids oh you’re no longer getting help for multiple kids in school. This will collapse soon as college becomes unaffordable for the kids that can actually make it thru college.

  3. That’s fair. But Chris Jones is the reason Allen didn’t complete that pass to Shakir. When Watt is off the field the Steelers never win. Aaron Donald is why Burrow missed Chase on that last play of the SB. Pass rushers are the WR of the defense. They are game changers.
  4. I can see Washington really wanting like say Worthy and trading us their 2 seconds for something like 28 and a 4th. The Eagles have 2 second round picks I think.
  5. Chiefs budgeting to make Humphrey highest paid Center in the league and Smith the highest paid Guard. Karlaftis will get paid. But what do they know….
  6. Hahahahaha “Starter home.” He thinks this is 2003.
  7. I actually think it’s CB.
  8. These are all fine points. I don’t necessarily disagree. Just showing a lot of confidence in 2 new interior guys when the rest of the league didn’t think too too highly of them. I guess if Edwards can be Feliciano and McGovern can be say on par with C like the one Dallas had that will work to. And of course he’s to the continued development of Brown.
  9. IOL outside of Torrence I have questions I’m sorry I just don’t get it. Fine with cutting Morse - ridiculous tho to think he is easily replaced. Then trade the backup. And my gosh we just happen to have a quality Center playing LG. Incredible depth! This regime hates Guards. I still think the Torrence pick was just “we absolutely have to take him he fell this far.” I thought the O line was awesome last year would rather only have to hope 1 position change works out let alone 2 - and who knew! We have another starting LG already on the team! Just skeptical. Want my franchise QB to have an elite interior in front of him like Mahomes does. It makes everything easier.
  10. I’m saying nothing I swear when Edwards looks like Quinton Spain. Zero I told you sos will be coming from me.
  11. My C train
  12. So what is the catch with this series? How did Leftflix - why did Leftflix green light this? Are they so far gone it’s actually a celebration of Maoism and the cultural revolution? Are they going to draw some parallels to Trump - claim it’s actually the Trumpists that are the Maoists? Because that’s my bet. They know that we know this is the ***t their propagandists have been taught for 40 years. So they’re going to just re write history and claim Mao = MAGA
  13. Google is a hostile foreign nation. “He allowed the protest to continue despite warnings it would spark a bloodbath.” Just say it Google. Not “He.” Man up and change He to “Trump.” Thats what you wanted to do here. Amazing.
  14. Dad Bod is the key to NFL QB success
  15. Nope. It’s not even up for discussion. The government and its media lackeys are full blown fascist thugs. Culture and the pillars that made up the greatest civilization to ever exist are under assault. Collapsing. Maybe already gone. No. No one is better off. Unless you’re a DEI hire or illegal.
  16. Democrats are complete ***t I know ZERO Democrats anywhere online or in real life that are mentally sound and normal. None.
