Couldn't help myself

Bass kicks everything on an angle. It makes no sense, because the effective distance between the goalposts shrinks as the approach angle of the ball increases. But that seems to be the way he likes to kick them. I find it terrifying to watch. You can never tell if it's good, even sometimes when it is.

Why Don't We Know What Caused the L.A. Fires? Victoria Taft It's been eight months since the California wildfires incinerated hundreds of homes and left charred scars stretching for miles in Pacific Palisades, Malibu, and Altadena. The natives are getting restless, however. Angelenos want to know what officially caused these fires, which led to homelessness and despair and contributed to a corrosive and abiding distrust of local and state government competence. What's the holdup? We're getting closer to finding out the cause, ironically, not from the state's congressional delegation and its two troubled senators, but rather because a Florida senator is demanding answers. Senator Rick Scott, at the bidding of desperate Palisades fire victims, answered their pleas to get answers from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The ATF took command of the investigation less than a week after the Palisades fire sparked at 10:30 a.m on Tuesday, January 7. Scott met with Palisades fire victims, including Spencer Pratt, a cast member from the MTV show "The Hills," who lost his home in the fire. Pratt has become a leading spokesman for fire victims. He arranged a meeting with Scott in the Palisades, where the senator promised to get a briefing from the ATF for fire victims. Scott says he's also introduced a bill seeking tax relief for victims required to pay taxes on houses that were incinerated. Earlier this week, Mayor Karen Bass told the Los Angeles Times that Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli asked her to wait to release her after-action, woulda—coulda—shoulda report until after the feds announce the cause of the Palisades fire. Since Bass has done nothing but fight the Trump Administration, this cooperation is amusing and must serve her purposes to forestall, for as long as possible, the report that exposes her nitwittery. There are three leading possibilities for the actual cause of the biggest firestorm in California history, The Witchy Winds—aka Santa Ana winds— sparking up a fire that had been put out in Topanga Canyon a week before. A hiker or homeless encampment sparking the fire. Or—as the left is fond of blaming everything on—the old standby "climate change" magicked up the fire. https://pjmedia.com/victoria-taft/2025/08/24/what-caused-the-la-fires-and-why-dont-we-know-n4942972

Del should be part of the selection committee. Tim Russert and Chris Berman would be my first two picks.

Terry's cheap. I'm sure he went with flex duct instead of spiral. flex is cheaper but attenuates more sound 👎

Just look at these idiots choking themselves to defend a pedophile - whitewashing Trump’s collusion with Russia while he never stops ball-washing Putin. What a deranged little world they live in...

"Wash this"

On the 'Bussin with the boys' podcast, Josh was asked what gave him hope that the team could get better. He said "the new guys we have acquired like Palmer and Moore". I reckon he makes the 53.

All because they may bring Jordan Phillips back? Wow.

Today is "try to trade your future castoffs for a 7th" day. Tomorrow is cutdown day.

Since Beane took over, the number of leaks we see on TBD from supposed insiders has dwindled down to almost nothing.

I like Shavers because we don't have a bunch of big targets for Josh and he seems like a good kid. And his one-handed grab was fantastic. But he's never been good enough to crack an opening day roster, and I wonder - at the ripe NFL age of 26 - if he's any better this year than last. It seems to me he's still slow (4.64 40) and has trouble gaining separation. We've seen a little of him in preseason games, but I wonder who he's been outperforming in camp.

Reminder:

What kind of balloon was it?

Bruised hand. Hahahahahahahahahaa.

Ok, so not the RB, no surprise. But apparently its a waste of time to dick around your DEs and WRs. Just pay em. But that's kinda my point too. There are so many ways to look at these deals, and its so easy to craft them so it gives the agent/player their bragging rights while still being reasonable for the team. I get you have to do the whole song and dance because if the team just jumped to it then the agent asks for even more... but jeez louise.

Where yall at with the insider scoop on Tre's injury. Back in the good ol days one of yalls cousins worked at OBD and heard magic through the ductwork...

I’d like for Moore to make the team. He smoked DB’s a few times in preseason and Mitch/White just couldn’t get it to him. Didn’t love the drops and some other stuff, but he has a high ceiling as a WR4/5 and gives us an actual slot backup to Shakir, which we didn’t have last year.

I'm sure they'll trade him to a bottom feeder team for a 5th or 6th or if he does get waived I doubt he'd fall to us in the pecking order.

I think it really all depends on what kind of connection and chemistry he's had with Josh during camp. Josh hasn't played in the preseason so Moore has only received throws from Mitch and White for the most part. IMO, he gets cut. He'll be this years OJ Howard

Liberals are prepping to OWN Trump by burning flags. They are well within their rights and it should work out really well for them. Should be fun.

They have GOT TO STOP doing this stuff.

Teams do it all the time, most rookies are not NFL ready from day one.
