AMERICANS, Report to the fields !! .

I'm left-handed but I play golf right-handed as well. When I was a kid, and just starting playing golf, I was told that it is actually an advantage for a lefty to play right-handed because your strong arm would be your leading arm in the swing. In fact, Phil Mickelson is actually right-handed, but plays left-handed for the same reason.

Privatizing social security is a stupid idea that will benefit only the investor class.

Any of you disc golfers in the Rochester area - we should play sometime

I VOTED SO HARD FOR THIS: Trump killing federal regulations at 10-1 rate, tops first term’s 4-1 cut. Early indications from a key regulation watcher confirm that President Donald Trump is not just making good on a campaign promise to cut 10 regulations for every new one his team proposes, but has also paused issuing new regulations. The change from the Biden approach is so radical that Washington’s regulation watchdog, Clyde Wayne Crews of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, dubbed the new campaign the “Unrule.” He said, “What we’re witnessing is the rise of the ‘Unrule,’ a revolt against the machinery of the administrative state.” In a pending blog post shared with Washington Secrets, he said that many of the rules the Trump administration is imposing are actually targeting those on the books for elimination. “Many of the so-called ‘rules’ that have appeared this year aren’t new mandates at all. They’re reversals, delays, withdrawals — and a government-wide recognition that certain, perhaps most, regulations are not merely unjustified but actively harmful.” Crews added that some deregulatory moves are significant, such as pulling back the Biden Environmental Protection Agency’s demand for clean vehicles, which Detroit said was unrealistic. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/washington-secrets/3487586/trump-cuts-killing-federal-regulations-10-1-rate-tops-first-term-4-1/#google_vignette Much more like this, please.

I only get worried when they hit the hospitality tent

The immigration system is the way it is, because it suited the needs of both parties. Corporate republicans like illegals for cheap labor and Dems thought they were getting new voters. Trump exploited the issue to rise to power. If corporations exploiting labor are the problem, you should support the right to form labor unions so farm workers can get a living wage with decent work conditions and benefits. That will come with a subsequent rise in food prices. America can’t have both cheap food and farm jobs that legal Americans would want to work.

About today's job report that the lefty lemmings here are clinging to. We’re transitioning to a workforce much less dependent on cheap, illegal labor — and the pain is largely borne by illegals leaving the country one way or another. The attendant effects on wages and the domestic labor force participation rate ought to be splendid.

Our passing game has looked pretty putrid ever since we fired Dorsey to be honest. It was at its peak that least half a season under Daboll when we had a prime Stefon Diggs and really leaned into the passing game. Now we've morphed into a run heavy team with a lackluster WR unit and have gone from trying to protect Josh from abusing his body to him basically running the ball every other play. Yeah we scored a lot of points last year, doesn't mean the passing game hasn't looked bad at times and leaves me wondering how many more points we could have scored with a true elite boundary receiver. Right now we're all praying that Coleman evolves into that.

It is called "Pandering" It is the only thing that she is good at. .

Second. Vote?

I'm currently working now but I get to leave soon. Half day Fridays for the remainder of summer! It took every ounce of brainpower you have to post this. You can go back to bed now.

Not One More Number: Say Their Names or Admit You Don’t Care David Manney This column was hard for me to write, but here goes. Every time there are breaking news stories highlighting successful ICE raids, we learn what evil is. Not the notion debated in panels on TV news hours or tweeted from think tank interns, but the real kind. I'm talking about the type walking on two feet, smiling at neighbors, and ruining lives behind closed doors. We're told about the arrests in the cold newspeak spoken by the newsreader providing the voiceover as we watch footage accompanied by numbers, charts, and press statements. We learn so much, but not the most important part: What those men actually did before they were caught. Whom did they hurt? How many homes were shattered? How many childhoods did they end? We count those successful ICE raids like wins on the scoreboard. It's what sits underneath the scoreboard that hits hard: Each raid is also a confession of how a system failed, resulting in a child paying the ultimate price. On top of all this, nobody wants to say their names. https://pjmedia.com/david-manney/2025/07/31/not-one-more-number-say-their-names-or-admit-you-dont-care-n4942294 .

It's hyperinflation. Just be glad you can still afford internet.

A little Meniscus clean up. Miss the rest of TC, preseason and the month of August. Ready for Week #1 Sounds like a solid plan on his part.

The big remaining question for Benford (and all our DBs really) is can he improve in man press alignments. We haven’t really had anyone who could do that since prime Taron (who got smoked last year the few times we tried like vs. Rams). I think McBeane understand this has been a weakness which is why we targeted guys like Hairston, a zone CB but someone with the wheels to in theory play without a cushion, and Dorian Strong who seemed to show man press ability in college.

Is it because he doesn't have a job? or he isn't too important at his job?

That’s a pretty lazy way to have a discussion. Those were your words, not mine. The Bills have thrown TONS of resources in terms of draft picks and money at the defense in this regime. The results have been pretty much exactly the same. They can’t stop KC in the big moments. I don’t want to keep trying the same thing and hoping for different results. I want to turbocharge Josh so that they end up with “plenty” of points. I think building around Josh Allen is a better strategy than trying to have him cover for lesser guys. I don’t think the sky is falling. I do, firmly believe, that WR is one of the worst 2 position groups on the team with S. Do you agree or disagree with that point? If you disagree, which groups are worse? If you agree, do you agree that he would be the best receiver on the Bills tomorrow (that’s rhetorical)? Do you also agree, that he will almost certainly be more impactful over the next 3 years than a WR picked at 28 or later? Instead of throwing a jab and running, go ahead and answer those very specific questions.

You just described your entire life.

Hochulmania!

The early 2010s Seahawks built an excellent defense, but injuries, contract extensions, age, etc. didn't allow it to continue at that level very long. And they had true elite defensive talent unlike the McBeane defensive roster. Still managed to win a SB and appear in another. The model of maintaining a defense with upwards of 15-17 starters/key depth is not and never will be an efficient use of resources when you have a franchise QB. Still, 2025 will provide the verdict on McBeane's strategy of not substantially investing in WRs and therefore Josh while going defense-heavy again. If this strategy doesn't get them to the SB, there's no more doubling to tripling down on that approach. It has to be pivoted from and they embrace a Josh-first team featuring real a real WR1 that emphasizes throwing it. Because if it doesn't and they're 6 straight seasons without a SB appearance there's no room to run.

Unless they like McClaurin's skill set more than Metcalf's. They've already made their investment in Palmer though who's about to turn 26. I just don't see it with this regime who's made it clear how they want their offense built from the inside out giving a lot of guaranteed money to a WR about to turn 30. I thought he was a lot younger than that before he demanded a trade as he was drafted at 23.

Peterman was a training camp star, wasn't he? He might continue to find roster spots, but few teams are kicking down his door to recruit his services.
