The Frankish Reich

No, I'm going to mention that she had a ghostwriter ("with ..."), apparently an editor, and that this wasn't a graded assignment and that apparently the "plagiarized" sources aren't at all bothered. Oh, and that nobody cares.

Take a look at his numbers last year. When Flacco stepped in, he had some huge games. His catch percentage is horrible this year, which says more about how bad Deshaun Watson is than anything else.

Umm, yeah, it's kind of important that a reporter covering the election is having some manner of affair with one of the candidates. A lot more important than the barrage of "NYT Headline Says Trump Shot in Apparent Assassination Attempt."

Sorry, Babylon Bee still batting .000 If they told you that would kind of negate the ignore function, now wouldn't it? but I guess that's the point. Performative ignorance is thy name, Tarheel.

I wasn't an MVS fan, but I didn't expect him to be below Mack Hollins on the depth chart ...

Looks to be about the same as Bass. So I don't know.

I'm going with: 1. Cooper. Best QB, still a real #1. 2. Adams, for the reasons you said. 3. Diggs. I think his decline isn't steep, but a little more evident than the other two.

I have to agree. Main reason: I could look past the easy misses if he had a big 60 yard leg. He doesn't. At least get me the guy who has a chance of hitting from 58 if we're gonna have to live with missed PATs and 30 yarders.

So who gets the most fantasy points from now to the end of the season? A. Diggs B. Cooper C. Adams D. Jeudy (Browns new #1 haha)

Nice catch!

Diggs' longest catch this season? 28 yards. 10.6 per catch. Still productive, but with a QB who is light years better than Deshaun, not clearly better. I say 110% of Diggs is more like it.

Where he may be expected to immediately catch 11 passes next week.

About the same age, similar size to Diggs. Better than Diggs at this stage of their careers? I say yes. So in the end, Beane wins! (again)

Thank god the Browns are getting rid of Cooper, who has definitely been the problem and is the anchor weighing the team down. Certainly now the QB will get better. - h/t to a commenter on The Athletic. Made me laugh.

That's a huge, huge acquisition. It really changes everything about this offense. It takes us back to the Bills pre vs. post-Diggs. Awesome!!!

True. I've said before that I think he has ADHD, and probably is dyslexic too. I say that here not as an insult, but as an explanation. The documented problems he has with reading anything more than a one-pager support that, not to mention the many comments from former cabinet officials about how he very quickly loses interest in policy presentations/discussions.

Except that the campaign's own spokesman didn't mention the medical emergencies (apparently people fainting in a hot auditorium) as having anything to do with the curious musical interlude. Something went awry here in a semi-programmed event, causing them to prematurely shut down the planned questions.

Well, a little song and dance interlude is the kind of joyful thing I usually go to when someone has a medical emergency. Cue up YMCA!

Oh no! Say it isn't so!! People paid good money for Donald J. Trump's personal investment advice only to discover it was plagiarized from standard sources! I mean, they could've just googled it and got the same advice for free. You mean The Trump Institute was neither Trump nor an Institute? It just republished standard advice? This definitely disqualifies him from the presidency. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/30/us/politics/donald-trump-institute-plagiarism.html

Notice how all the gun rights open/concealed carry types think that there's absolutely nothing threatening or sinister about a guy going around town with a gun suddenly think there's something threatening or sinister when there's a Trump Rally going on nearby?

A rare instance where I agree that they very well might have been non-Trumpie provocateurs. At any rate, the boat parade did the right thing and excluded them from their little party.

Really? You now need a footnote for official government statements in a "popular" (quotes because it was not, in fact, at all popular) campaign book? Maybe the aggrieved "Calfornia government website" should sue her.

Agreed. I've called him a white nationalist (and I don't think he denies that moniker), but one man's white nationalist is another man's white national socialist

And they were soft interviews on Republican Joe's (back then) program, well before our favorite power couple turned on him.

Imagine if Kamala had taken a bizarre 39 minute music/dance break and had a teleprompter at her rally ....
