Saw ‘Oppenheimer’ today and would highly recommend seeing it. Superb in every sense of the word. Just a marvelously crafted movie with great performances by every actor in it, especially Murphy and Downey Jr. who turns in his best work in years, perhaps ever. As @sherpamentioned, it helped to have read The Making of the Atomic Bomb, by Richard Rhodes a couple times previously as the fast pacing and time jumps in the movie might be a little confusing to those not acquainted with the history.

She was an early victim of “cancel culture” but she had a very successful career nonetheless. She had been sounding the alarm about sexual abuse by catholic clergy long before the world became aware and I admired her courage in her stand against racism, sexual abuse, women’s rights, and other causes she felt strongly about. Her battle against mental illness, especially after her 17 year old son committed suicide, was very sad and I hope she’s finally at peace.

Even if you went back to 1994 when the cap was first imposed, I think you’d find that the percentage spent on QBs is relatively the same.

This should answer that question: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/positional/quarterback/

A player is “worth” whatever someone is willing to pay him. It’s really that simple.

Individual teams must spend a minimum of 89% of the cap on players over a four year period. The league as a whole must spend at least 95% over that period.

I believe he meant 12 personnel instead of 21 personnel when mentioning the the Knox and Kincaid sets.

I can see the tag line now: Josh’s Nuts: Never Blue

Yep. Let the stream of consciousness reporting begin!

Just wait until he and his dad harvest their almonds and pistachios and start selling Josh’s Nuts.

Seeing as how it’s been a phenomenon since it was first introduced nearly 65 years ago, I’d say that list of adults who grew up with Barbie would include grandmothers, mothers, daughters, and granddaughters. The sheer size of that market makes it a can’t miss money maker for the studios.

My post was a tongue in cheek comment, but good on you for doing the research.

The USPS recorded a $56 billion profit for fiscal 2022.

As I said, smarter is desirable but the key is knowledge. Too many people nowadays conflate the two concepts.

Great point about Shanny blowing the big lead in the SB. That extended brain fart makes McD’s 13 seconds look like genius. While smarter is desirable, I don’t care if a football coach has a high IQ or not as it’s just football and it’s really not so complicated that it requires super high intelligence to scheme it up and succeed. On either side of the ball.

Being a pocket passer so he can be “safer” is the last reason I’d want Allan to become one because it is from being hit in the pocket that most QB injuries occur, including the one that ruined Newton’s career, ironically. The best reason for Allen to stay in the pocket is simply because it’s from there that most of the field is available for him to attack.

No need to insult shite like that.

This is gonna slow down his search for the real killers.

Benson has edge work like Skinner.

Thelma and Louise?

In a 17 game season, all games have ramifications. Some bigger than others to be sure, but they’re all important. That said, while the games with KC and Cincy might cost a home field advantage in the playoffs, division games are more important because they can potentially cost a trip the playoffs in the first place.

Cameron has conducted more deep sea expeditions than anyone else on the planet. 33 trips to the Titanic and is one of only a few to visit Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench. I’d say his opinion on deep sea exploration is as well qualified as anyone else in the world.

I disagree. Last year they were playing under the weight of high expectations as they were everyone’s pick to get to the big dance. This year, not so much.

Outstanding. Kind of touches upon the idea of making statistics say anything you want them to say. But there is honest research and then there is the type of research posited by the resident genius who needs to support his agenda.

This is an easy concept that the resident “genius” can’t seem to grasp.
