  1. McCarthy is extremely smooth at the mesh point. No other QB in this draft class comes close.
  2. I loved his daily press conferences during his knee rehab to address whatever nonsense resulted from that morning's panel show or to rebut something that was shared on twitter.
  3. I believe last year and the year before, the roster was built to score fast, get leads, and then get after the QB with Von, Groot, and Floyd. Which worked perfectly against Miami before it all went to hell. Allen is a big play guy and this approach made sense. We know defenses are all attempting to force the premier QBs to string together long drives with 2 high safeties and take away the big play. Looks like this year's team will play ball control. It was ugly at times last year. We effectively ran out of time against New England in the first match up since we couldn't score fast enough. KC playoff game we were left in no man's land in terms of clock management but it almost worked. Allen has done it at times but I still question if he has the maturity to take what the defense is giving him all night combined with the clutchness to capitalize when the big play opens up.
  4. Those were remote positions.
  5. Its definitely a top 28 roster.
  6. I don't think its a reach for the past. I think its a sign that no one else with any experience was interested in the job.
  7. Jesse is primed to take a large role once her tennis career is done. Its something she has discussed publicly.
  8. I am biased because I live in Houston but it makes no sense to me that the NHL hasn't pursued a team in Houston. Its the 4th biggest city in the country, we have an arena with ice (Toyota Center), and Houston had an IHL/AHL team that routinely led the league in attendance. There are a lot of Canadian transplants here as well as a massive contingent of Americans who have relocated from traditional hockey markets. Houston has the second most Fortune 500 companies of any city in the country and can easily sell luxury suites/boxes. From what I have read, Bettman doesn't want a hockey team sharing space with the basketball team even though that is a situation in so many other cities. Its such an obvious and natural move and its not going to happen. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-nation/general/article/houston-nhl-shut-out-arena-ownership-issues-19401721.php https://www.houstonpress.com/news/four-reasons-the-nhl-in-houston-is-complicated-15717672 https://thehockeynews.com/news/reaction-nba-rockets-owner-says-hes-talked-to-nhl-about-bringing-a-team-to-houston
  9. It impacted where people live and how they live. It shaped American culture. Outside of the old cities like New York, Boston, Chicago, and to a lesser extent Philadelphia/DC every American city was built for cars. Urban sprawl and suburban mediocrity are simply not possible without the automobile. The number one priority of city designers is "where are all the cars going to park?"
  10. For as much as the players "loved" Donny the cleanout interviews have been pretty damning. "Lack of accountability", "guys should have lost playing time", "lack of structure" is coming from everyone. I wonder how much of it is directed at Skinner given two of his linemates are harping on this theme. The players say they want accountability but we will see how much they like it.
  11. I would argue that the invention of inventions was pretty impactful. The invention came about in 1793 just in time for Eli Whitney to popularize inventions with the cotton gin. Before Eli Whitney there was no true innovation, only recycling of and incremental improvement on existing ideas. The invention would stagnate however, mostly due to the spectacular failure that was the steamboat which sucked most of the joy out of inventing. And for a long time nothing really happened. That is, until, the invention of technology in 1903. Technology was invented by the Swedes and was primarily focused on the design of modular furniture until a string a futuristic movies including Back to the Future, The Terminator, and ET the Extra Terrestrial, captivated imaginations worldwide. For the first time in human history people began wondering "can technology be used to improve my everyday life?"...and the rest is history. Without the invention of inventions, most of this would not have been possible.
  12. I bet Allen feels like a guy who just took a dump the size of a lunchbox that pinched off clean in a one wipe situation, precautionary at that.

  14. the male to male converter
  15. And now hes an offensive quality assistant.
  16. This surprised me. I thought he looked great for is age in all of his latest twitter videos. He looked healthy enough to murder a cabana boy. Cancer is cruel.
  17. Kaiir could definitely get us back up to the top of the 6th round.
  18. I commend your restraint.
  19. Now thats a fun group. I'd totally go to Dave & Busters with those guys.
  20. It just happened in Texas. Mostly cloud coverage here but I got a few glimpses of the edge through the clouds. Pretty uneventful in the 95% coverage zone with how overcast it was.
  21. Hes a great talent but very immature. Every time I hear him speak he's talking about his own greatness and his pass rushing stats.
