  1. It’s not a hard question to answer, at all.
  2. Agreed - Seeing the Chiefs and Bengals play bully ball on the outside against our WR’s, Diggs very much included, in recent playoff games has me ready for some more physically imposing guys out there.
  3. Coleman definitely seems like a late round fantasy flyer. Dude could have a ton of TD’s. I’m just not sure of his usage between the 20’s. Glad to see MVS getting more involved. Nothing against the feel good stories, but I’ve seen MVS in the playoffs and want that on our team, regardless of a down year with the drops. I really want Elam to start. He has elite physical talent. If his technique and mind are right, he’ll make this incredibly difficult for Babich/McDermott. I just don’t know how you bench Benford as he’s too good. Maybe they go with a 3 man CB rotation dependent upon schemes? I know he’ll likely play a bunch regardless, but I’d like to see our most physically gifted CB actually starting at some point.
  4. Why “yikes”.. she identifies as Indian when it’s politically expedient and then identifies as black when it’s politically expedient. If she’s going to make her entire campaign based on being a cultural black icon, it’s worth pointing out (not to the extent the Trump campaign is though). Jamaicans don’t, as a culture, view themselves as black. Some do. Some don’t. Same with Bahamians. To say, oh, of course, she’s black.. she’s part Jamaican doesn’t register as oh, well obviously, for everyone. (Including many in the black community) If she wants to lean into it, fine.. but she very clearly does this for political expedience. Im Polish and Italian. If I spent my life reppin my Polish side running for office in Chicago, and then started quoting The Godfather, adopting a Long Island accent and campaigning with actors from the Sopranos because im trying to win over Italians in NY/NJ, people should freely question my sincerity.
  5. We could have had this.. instead we have Trump royal rumbles with black journalists because he needs the attention put back on him.
  6. You cool with this?
  7. She’s Indian and Jamaican. If she wants to identify culturally as black, so be it. But her entire candidacy is based around her identity, so people are going to attack it. Do we consider all Caribbean descent as black? They’re not African-American, it would have to be broader black category. Dominicans are as black as Jamaicans and don’t identify as black.. why? Haitians are blacker. Puerto Ricans would rather die than be labeled black & typically identify as white/hispanic. Same with Cubans.
  8. Look at this guy.. straight out 2004 with his talking points. Most of us are completely fine with people living their truth as adults. Leave the kids alone and keep men out of women’s spaces. Most of America actually does agree with that statement, despite your copy and paste diatribe from the Bush era.
  9. Ok man.. I don't care enough to debate this random topic with you. Nobody is going to trash someone who just passed away like that. We have no idea why they listed character concerns for him, but just because he passed away doesn't reflect positively or negatively on the Giants e v a l process.
  10. You seem to have me confused for an NFL scout
  11. Why is it a knock on the Giants that they listed a player as a character concern who happened to pass away? Seems to align quite a bit with how we viewed guys like Bishop/Carter.. Would you be upset with Beane for listing him as a character concern?
  12. The strange thing is, Trump is hitting 50%+ in some of the new polling, which prior to this past week was a moonshot. He was around 46-47% to a cratering Biden in the 30’s. However, as you point out, generic Dem is now Kamala Harris and what remains to be seen is does she have a higher ceiling than some polling showing her +2 in Trump or is that a high water mark… because that probably won’t be enough to beat him, unless she pulls a Trump 2016 and narrowly wins in the swing states.
  13. The cross tabs in this polling all seem believable, aside from Trump getting 27% of the black vote. He wins in a landslide if that’s the case.
  14. I honestly could see Beasley saying that. Cole loves Josh, but is also brutally honest in his opinions online.. let alone in private to someone like Edelman. There's more to accuracy then just hitting the target. There's also leading a player, which shoulder to put it on etc.., and I wouldn't be shocked if Jones was more accurate in the short/intermediate on those throws. Now, the Allen we've seen highlights of in camp.. it looks like he's laser focused on that part of his game.
  15. We can complain about this all we want.. they win elections. This isn’t 1960. Get yourself a Grade A candidate who can rally the people and put in the work. This is 2024. Use your allies in media and celeb culture to manufacture a glam campaign bereft of policy or vision. Then organize a ballot harvesting campaign to take advantage of the low info voters you’ve mesmerized. Off the heels of the same strategy in 2020, only substitute glam/glitz with hiding/basement. R’s better figure out how to deal with this.. and fast.
  16. I feel like every single position group on this team has gone heavy Arrow Up since the start of training camp, except Safety... which is now legitimately concerning.
  17. Most NFL pundits that aren't hot take artists are starting to admit it's Mahomes.. Allen.. and everyone else. And the reason there's a gap between Mahomes and Allen is due to the Super Bowl rings. While I think Allen has gotten such a raw deal from his teammates and coaches, in comparison to Mahomes.. there are certain things Allen can, and should, take ownership of. The main one, for me, is consistency. Mahomes, prior to last year, is always good, usually great. That baseline can be the difference between then 1 seed, a bye, easier path and the 2,3,4 seed etc. Two years ago, KC had a bye, Jax, then played the winner of Buf/Cin. Both Buffalo and Cinci came into that Divisional Game beat up and in the AFC CG, those injuries for CIN began to show. That 1 seed mattered a whole lot.
  18. So, this is you saying the past few years were “sanity”?
  19. If Kromer wants McGovern at Center, then I want McGovern at Center. I'm pretty much cool with anything he wants to do at this point. One of the best in the game.
  20. Daboll was completely sold on Nabers after talking to Nick Saban. That was on the second to last episode, I think.
  21. Do you think things happen organically in politics? The media is firmly behind her and tonight was just the start… Meg Thee Stallion, Beyoncé and most like Taylor Swift. They are going to try to create a movement out of nothing and carry it all the way to the White House.
  22. The only person who could’ve ran against Kamala would be Michelle Obama. Anyone else, specifically the numerous white male candidates, would have committed political suicide in the Democrat Party and, even if the party didn’t punish them, the black female voters (THE base of the party) would never let them forget it.
  23. There’s no denying Harris has momentum. Its completely manufactured, but last time they were able to elect a literal dementia patient to office over Trump. For as loved as Trump is, he has serious vulnerabilities & doubled down on them by selecting a protege, rather than someone like Youngkin, who could offset them. Hollywood and the mainstream media are about to find out if they’re able to get anyone they want elected. Im personally not betting against them. They know she’s empty. A hollow candidate. So expect to see more celeb led zoom calls, celeb led campaign events and glowing media coverage painting her as a cultural icon. So far, I’ve seen nothing that indicates Trump/Vance know how to combat a manufactured propaganda campaign.
