No clue why a synapse fired to remember this one

Thanks. I don't wanna hijack the thread, but a few quick thoughts Each combo you picked have at least been to a SB (I also thought of McVay/Snead who went all-in and won it all). A more interesting question might have been what's the realistic GM/HC combo you would want going forward - and would it include either McD or Beane? Topic for another thread. For the record I'm a fence-sitter when it comes to McD. I'm unconvinced we're incapable of winning it all with him - but I can't dismiss the comparisons to Schottenheimer

Interesting perspective. Are there any teams currently that you feel strongly have the GM/HC that are capable?

He's back!!

I wore my Squirrel Winters t-shirt for the first time this season.

Engaged? I didn't even know he was sick!

Has anyone mentioned the timeout the Bears took with 43 seconds left and the clock already stopped after an incompletion? I thought that was nearly as inexcusable.

A bit off topic, but maybe inspired by WKRP: https://nypost.com/2024/11/28/us-news/alaska-pilot-esther-keim-to-toss-frozen-thanksgiving-turkeys-out-of-plane-to-residents-in-rural-areas/

Not gonna lie, I'm having a hard time keeping up. Thread is about Purdy, I replied to your comment comparing Hurts in 2022 to Goff (now) - and now you bring up Josh? What point are/were you trying to make?

@WhoTom smiles from above. Fun fact: I'm a huge fan of Quadrophenia. At one point in my life I upgraded my stereo system - either receiver, turntable or speakers - and I chose to put Quadrophenia on the turntable first - pretty sure it was side 2 (I'm One). Good times.

I don't disagree with your overall point - but "at the end of 2022" isn't a ringing endorsement to me. At the end of 2022 Daniel Jones had a playoff win under his belt which resulted in a 4 year $160 mill extension. In the NFL, the end of 2022 is a long ways away.

The playoff win against the Vikings Daboll's first year as HC set the Giants back two more years. There's been speculation that Mara wanted Jones resigned and Schoen capitulated to a deal they could get out of. No clue if that's true. It'll be interesting to see if Schoen/Daboll get a chance to make their own mark with the Giants instead of trying to make things work with the hand that Gettleman dealt them: Jones and Saquon - both highly questionable picks where they were selected.

Boxing - when it became obvious it was fixed or scripted. Tuned in on Saturday and it was worse than what I turned my back on years ago. Not only a total joke, but boring af. At least back in the day it was entertaining.

Damn, I was going to say the same. I still have and treasure my Marklin's. They only come out at Christmas and setup can be a struggle since the set is so old, but for the most part the track is in good condition and my two locomotives still run. This is from a few years ago.

All my life, I've been searching for something Something never comes, never leads to nothing Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
