    Just watched it last night/this morning.  What an incredible 'movie'.  I always thought Tim Blake Nelson was one of the more underappreciated Coen Brothers actors, he was incredible.  I thought each little vignette was mesmorizing and holy crap, the cinematography was mind blowing.  Still trying to make sense of the last part, thought I had it figured out but then i didn't.  The performances by the entire cast was outstanding.  I can't stop with the superlatives.

     

    Did you notice the trapper in the last one sounded and looked exactly like the medicine man in True Grit?

    You might be getting Greedy!  Pun intended ?

    I'd take him!     Now again if there's a LT like the one from Alabama you have to consider him too.   I don't think there is a blue chip WR this year worth looking at in the top 10.  And if someone offered to move up you have to consider that as well.  I just don't see a bunch of guys teams will be clamoring to move up for.  QB class is weak, WR class is deep with #2s and #3s but thin at the top. There are bunch of edge rushers but are we even in the market?  And if it's not Bosa/Oliver really not interested in top 10.

    Even with Taron Johnson in the fold and McBeane's ability to evaluate DB's and draft them in later rounds?  I'm not taking a DB in the first round unless it's the next Jalen Ramsey (without the douchiness).

     

    BPA or trade back.  Definitely making OL and WR a priority.

    I'm just saying what I would do, if given the keys.  I want a pair of lockdown corner to go with our good safeties.   Johnson is good at nickel and we should leave him there.   If we draft a CB top 10, and then in 2020 we extend Tre it will be 8-9 years before we need corners on the outside again.   That sounds nice to me, especially entering Josh Allen's prime where we will need WRs and OL and we'll have to pay them. 

  4. First pick would be a CB in the top 10.  Should be one worth taking that high up and should get us a blue chip corner to pair with Tre and complete a very good secondary.   

     

    My next pick would be BPA but would slant to either OL/WR.   Then OL/WR again.    In the 4th round I would probably use some of my later picks and move up for either a LB or TE.   Still looking for starters at that point.

  5. Best concert probably Ozzfest 98.   SOAD was on the side stage, I had no idea who they were but they were killing it.  Sevendust was there, then Tool opened for Ozzy.    People were passing pinners while you waited in line to get in, it was an all day concert.  Good times.

     

    Worst concert Earth Day Birthday 2008.   Even with the girls finally putting pasties on and painting themselves instead of wearing shirts I don't remember enjoying any of the bands.    Spent the whole day on a blanket waiting to go home.   

     

    Bucket list would be a Jimmy buffet concert on the water in the Keys.   Everyone floating in boats and drinking and having a good time.   

     

    In 2000 I could have gone to see U2 and I think it was the Lemon tour, my cousin went to Tampa and saw it, said it was fantastic.    

     

    Oh and props to the Tans-Siberian orchestra we went 4 years ago in December and had a good time there.    Definitely something to do at least once.

    ...hard to deny that the Pats and Steelers are probably the two best top to bottom football organizations in the league.....non-meddling ownership, managerial and coaching continuity with the ability to replace those who get offers elsewhere, "our way" or adios, players routinely granting "hometown discounts" to stay, opportunities given those players who have had scrapes elsewhere to redeem themselves on a short leash....play and you stay....combined ELEVEN Lombardis may mean they're doing something right........

    I know the owners in Pittsburgh don't meddle, but I do feel like the culture in that organization starts with them.   It's not really even a culture in there it's more than that.

  7. Call it whatever you want it's all about getting the 53 men on the roster to buy into what the HC is selling, and that is almost always the same thing.  Hard work, attention to detail, sacrifice, a positive attitude, and mental toughness.  

     

    You sell your locker room on that, and you have a foundation for winning.  You get talented players to buy in, you can win 8 games a year.   You get a franchise QB, and a talented roster that buys in, you get a dynasty.
