All true although Zay's receiver coach from ECU had been hired on staff and they had a link at Temple through a guy who had interned in Carolina. Still the case that the 2017 draft other than Tre does not look the same as their MO ever since.

Yikes. You were soooooo close.

LFG

Have you been under a rock for 15 years? It already is out of reach. College is done. It might be for the best. AI doing the work for them and elitist universities just produce Anti American ***t libs.

The pitch: Keep tariffs high, but extend them 12 months. Give global partners time to lower non-tariff barriers, adjust their economies, and stabilize supply chains without lifting pressure. It’s a reset button with a timer. Uncertainty is a drag on GDP: Sløk cites a VAR model showing that a 1 SD rise in policy uncertainty drops GDP by 0.2 pts. More clarity, even under a tough regime, helps business planning, hiring, and markets. The Play: $400 billion/year in tariff revenue. That’s not nothing. It’s a de facto tax on global trade partners that offsets deficits and boosts U.S. leverage. The idea isn’t to end tariffs. It’s to normalize them and use the certainty to force foreign economies to adapt, not retaliate. Risky? Yes. But shrewd and smart? Absolutely. This isn’t a temporary negotiating bluff. We've written about this several times and agree with Sløk. It’s a paradigm shift in how tariffs are used, as fiscal tools, not just trade weapons. Trump may be playing a longer game than people think.

Are you talking about the new site circa 2001? I bet there are many who were members of the old site, and hence can be considered "founding members".

Yeah, precisely this. Florio? I mean, I don't watch him all that much, but when I do catch something, no, it doesn't seem he hates the NFL at all. Just the opposite, it seems like his love for it is causing him obsession. But yeah, it's clear he doesn't like some things about how the NFL operates and what goes on. Which seems very fair to me.

They don't even know they are the marks.

What the BBB does do (among many other things) is fundamentally reshape the ability of people who can't just write a check to send their kids to college. No idea how old you are or your financial situation, but this bill puts college out of reach for most American families.

How do you know they are police?

Keep posting more highlights please!

Two weeks! Taco gave Putin two weeks how many weeks ago? Imagine being subservient to a country with a gdp scraping the top 50 and a military that has lost over 1,000,000 soldiers in a war vs a small neighbor. That’s who Two Week Taco emulates.

The KKK has got 3 piece suits.

If Bass struggles the first half of the season….

I have good feelings about the Sooners this year Tons of talent

Buffalo716 -- a heartfelt post if there ever was one. I and others appreciate your deep knowledge of the game and your willingness to share it. On this latter topic, I read a piece on how the D could show man but really be in zone. One of the "tells" that its a man D is for the O to put a WR in motion to the opposite side. If a db fallows that motion, it's man. But the piece described how the db could follow the motion, thus showing man but the D was really playing zone. This tricks the QB into thinking it was man coverage. Here's the rub (no pun intended): I cannot find the post and I cannot remember how the D plays zone to the side the db vacated. Do you know the answer? Thanks

That is baseball in a nutshell. It never ceases to amaze me how folks who have watched the game for decades don't grasp the fickle nature of the game when viewed through small time frames. Neither Tampa nor the O's 2025 season is likely to be defined by the games played this and last week, they are just another chapter in a longer book.

I certainly did hype up Gilmore to no end

If I forgot anybody I apologize @BuffaloBill ✌️✌️✌️

Not sure what you are debating. The fact that the Diggs trade came after free agency began only enhances how strapped they were for spending dollars. Apologies for lumping things together (as one offseason) rather than laying out the exact timeline of everything in detail. The team was $41 million over at the start of the NFL year (so before the Diggs trade, which only made things worse when it happened). The team released a number of players and restructured a number of others, so they could "work around the cap" as Beane stated. So they would have some money to spend. [Note: Tre wouldn't be released until April 1st, Diggs traded on April 3rd.] In the end, the Bills were 22nd in free agency spending last year (they were worst in the NFL in being over the cap at the start of the new year). So, are you trying to say that they had plenty of money/cap room in 2024 and chose not to use it or used it poorly? Or that the Diggs trade didn't also affect their offseason (he was $3.2 million more against the cap traded than if he stayed---$31 million against the cap total--- and he had to be replaced with another player and their salary and cap hit)? So, not sure what you mean by "misleading" and "revisionist history." I'm not sure what point you are actually questioning or how Samuel being the 4th highest paid FA WR weighs into it?
