Because they need something push more people to get vaccinated, and this is good bait. (and I mean all that in a very positive way) The issue we're about to face is that the US is not even at 25% vaccinated (barely 1/3 of where we need to end up), and we are already seeing DEMAND for the vaccine dwindling. Herd Immunity, and a safe, full re-opening, kicks in around 70%. If we top out at 30-35%, we're going to have some major problems.

Happy Birthday, Chef. If you need advice on how to celebrate, dont ask us!

LeVar Burton or bust! NONE of these guest hosts are qualified to pick up where Alex Trebek left off.

Delightful

Been on a pretty strict/responsible lockdown since March 2020. Now that my wife and I are fully vaccinated, and the vaccination rate is promising, we're making plans. We have a trip to St Thomas booked for this July. And I am fully expecting to be at some combination of the Home Opener/New Orleans/Tampa Bay games.

Glad to hear you are feeling better. And have you noticed that no matter where you go, your 5G coverage is amazing now?!?

Aw man, definitely didnt mean it to sound harsh. My bad if the brevity made it sound "short" or aimed at you. Anyways, yeah, unless there is a generational DE available, we should be hanging at #30 and going BPA with all positions on the table, except for QB, K, and P.

The reason it was worth KC giving up all those picks was to get a QB. Out of those 3 positions you listed, only DE is worth trading up for. And only if there is a generational-type talent there. Not sure there is even one of those at DE in this draft. Also, kinda funny you want to trade up from #30 to get an impact CB, when according to this post, we got our #1 CB right around #30....

Nah, eff him. He isnt a top-100 WR of all time. Brady made him what he was.

College starts playing their preseason in APRIL with their Spring games, which regularly pack stadiums. And then they practice all summer, and hold kids to strict training regimes throughout the entire time. Hitting in practice is a GOOD thing, because you cant get your body ready for it any other way. No matter how many weights you lift and wind sprints you run, you still need to get into "hitting condition". He was wrong.

If you are seriously comparing voting to what someone can do with a gun, then we arent in the same realities. Plus, I can walk into any Walmart or Dick's near me and walk out with a gun today.

I just keep picturing him out there trying to field punts with little to no athletic ability and taking them right to the face. I wonder how many he had to flub before the rest of the team started questioning whether he should be there. 🤣🤣🤣

This was my thought process as well while I was sick. "At least I know it's working!" Yeah, the ibuprofen helped, for sure. Not sure about the arm soreness. I just kept moving my arm around, and that seemed to help work it out. It would only get sore if I didn't move much. But who knows.

Hmmm, Polynesian from Utah... Where have we seen that before?... And we know Beane loves to stick with his methods... Could be the pick.

Who you like?

I havent done any deeper film study (and probably wouldnt know what to look for even if I tried), but Harry looked like he had his best 1-tech game ever in the playoff game against Baltimore. Fingers crossed that the light finally came on for him there. Even so, we still need to draft another to prepare for Star leaving next year.

You beat me to it. Was just starting a thread titles "Where's the Beef? (Addressing the 1-Tech)" Even if Star shows up in the best shape of his life, we need to draft another true big-body 1-tech to get ready to take over next year. I don't know who that is in the 2021 draft. Is that Christian Barmore at #30? Marvin Wilson at #61? Someone even later?

Someone needs to hit up Jason_OTC and have him re-run the numbers!

It is disingenuous to quote this and provide no link or information as to WHY those votes were tossed. The issue was with the mail-in ballot process, and the cloudy rules that voters needed to follow. The majority of those tossed ballots were not due to some nefarious fraud attempt. Like ineligible people trying to vote, or someone trying to vote twice, etc. Almost ALL of them were tossed due to user error and signature mismatch. The Signature Mismatch is a huge point of debate as well. Here in GA, they threw out ballots if the use of a hyphen did not sync. For example, someone used a hyphen when signing for their drivers license, but didn't use the hyphen on their ballot. EVEN IF everything else about the signature matched. A method that multiple courts have ruled is unconstitutional. https://www.npr.org/2018/11/03/663937578/judge-rules-against-georgia-election-law-calling-it-a-severe-burden-for-voters So yeah, no real fraud, just administrative/user errors because voting by mail was new to so many people last year.

Absolutely zero evidence of that every happening. Yet another false narrative, made-up boogeyman that isnt based in reality.

NOW we're talking! Way easier to come up with Head Coaches and FO guys I've disliked than players. Actually... easier to come up with a short list of HC/FO guys I actually liked!

Yeah, this is a great question by @Royale with Cheese, but one I'm having a hard time answering. I guess Maybin and McGahee were the closest to guys I didnt like while they were here. Most of our other villains, I gave a pass because it wasnt their fault most were 1. over-drafted and 2. to a horribly managed organization.

Almost started a similar thread earlier. It's been a heck of an offseason already for the NFL and its players. Some real bad stuff too. I think you are on the right track with the combination of CTE, addiction, and poor mental heath.
