The Frankish Reich

Exactly what percentage of Americans has any idea who “Ray Epps” is? 10? 5? Oh, yeah, what a COLOSSAL GARLAND MISTAKE! Hint for those who really need one: No. One. Cares.

I would like to see only 2 point conversions. The PAT is the dullest play in football.

He won reelection/beat back a recall with about 60% of the vote. Californians seem to like him! I don't, but I'm not a Californian.

I have no idea what this has to do with funding. If you like this kind of top-down stuff ("we give you the money, we dictate what you can do!") you are presumably all for federal DOE control too. Leave local communities to decide what's best for them. More irrelevance. The standard curriculum is the standard curriculum, it is not what kids read when they check out books from a school library.

I've said it before here. Several times. I believe it is a LOCAL issue to be decided by every LOCAL community. Not by Ron DeSantis. I have no problem with LOCAL school boards and library committees deciding what books are available in their libraries and what age/grade restrictions they place on circulation. Miami Beach is not Sarasota is not Tallahassee.

Can Spencer Brown ever pancake an edge rusher? Can Deonte Harty ever break free beyond the line of scrimmage? Can Dalton Kincaid ever catch a pass beyond the sticks? (Those should help us next week!)

It is kinda risk-free for Newsom. He gets his name out there, gets to take on DeSantis AND Hannity (what a fearless warrior!) and there's really no downside. For DeSantis, it just seems a bit desperate. Trump has sucked out all of the oxygen on the Republican side, leaving him to do whatever he can to get attention.

Depends on what you call "pornographic books," doesn't it?

No, only 91 percent at age 14. There's 9 percent who have to rely on spanking it to library books. https://childmind.org/article/when-should-you-get-your-kid-a-phone/

I have no idea why they are doing this, or why Fox (with Hannity? Really?) is hosting it. My hope is that it is continuously ridiculed and these 2 slip into the obscurity they so richly deserve.

This thread obviously inspired Cook to start breaking tackles. So who's gonna start the "can Gabe Davis ever get yards after a catch" thread?

This is the game CBS is giving me on Sunday instead of Bills-Dolphins. I said I was giving up Sunday Ticket (lots of non-Sunday afternoon Bills games) but this one choice will force me to take out my credit card ...

Exactly my point.

Meanwhile, the leading rushers in those years: 2022 Josh Jacobs 2021 Jonathan Taylor 2020 Derrick Henry 2019 Derrick Henry 2018 Ezekiel Elliott It's possible that McCaffrey will break the pattern this year, leading the league in rushing (or at least combined rushing/receiving by a RB) and actually win something ....

McKenzie, Hines, Harty - someone (Beane? McD? Daboll/Dorsey?) is kind of obsessed with these guys. Other than a couple games where McKenzie excelled (mostly as a more traditional slot receiver) we really haven't gotten much out of any of them on offense.

I only caught the very end of Hadl's career. Loved that guy. The list of freely available veteran QBs is pretty bad. I hear Carson Wentz, but I think he's run out of chances. Nick Foles if he feels like playing again? That would almost certainly be better than Zach Wilson ...

I still have to wonder why the Jets thought going into the season with a 39 year old starter with Zach Wilson as his backup was a good idea. With the talent on defense and some offensive skill positions, they could be a playoff team with some Teddy Bridgewater type at QB. It now seems too late.

I just don't see many classic run-stuffing big MLBs in the NFL anymore. Brandon Spikes is a thing of the past. I would expect Belichick to run heavy sets against us, but that's just as much about them not having a good passing attack and doing the best with what they have.

A lot of it isn't teams "traveling well." It's the population shift. As places like Buffalo depopulated in the 1970s-1990s, the fan base moved to DC, Carolina, Florida, etc. Not a whole lot of Broncos-raised fans who've relocated to WNY. So that drives it more than anything else.

Right. He kept plugging away and seems like he's found a good team/system for his skills. And he avoids jetskis. Good for him.

I can't wait for Brown to catch a TD pass. He's a natural TE/basketballer, and that play is coming.

https://www.dhs.gov/news/2023/09/20/fact-sheet-biden-harris-administration-takes-new-actions-increase-border Now pay attention to what I am about to say. This press release from the Biden Admin starts with total bs. It suggests that Congress shares blame to not passing “comprehensive immigration reform.” The bill the Biden Admin out forward shortly after inauguration was in now way an enforcement bill. It was an amnesty bill. There was really nothing in it to step up enforcement or deter illegal entry. See that? I can believe Biden was the lesser of two evils vs Trump but still call him on his bs. What a remarkable thing.

As in, not a pacifist. I plead guilty. I believe in enforcing the law. And the rule of law.

My team 1,000. Your team 0. A little victory dance is in order.
