  1. This isn't Houston or football.
  2. I think i jinxed him
  3. Zac Gallen for Arizona has no hit the Rangers through six innings. The watch is on.
  4. I've noticed a theme, where when a team breaks out an alternate uniform, the mid-field logo and end zones match the uniform. With the current turf, everything is sewn into the turf, so not easily able to be changed. Wonder if that's a new stupid NFL rule?
  5. It's a glass half empty/half full uniform
  6. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed Mississippi when we were there in 2022. Good food, good golf courses, very nice people.
  7. Now you did it
  8. Only the shadow knows. (How's that for a scary Halloween post?)
  9. From the Athletic. Paywall I'm sure, so I'll copy and paste the important stuff. The Bills acquired cornerback Rasul Douglas and a fifth-round pick from the Packers for a third-round pick. Why they made the move The Bills are thin in the secondary with Tre’Davious White out for the season with a torn Achilles, while 2022 first-round pick Kaiir Elam hasn’t developed according to plan. Douglas is good enough to start immediately. The Packers are shedding salary in the post-Aaron Rodgers era and are gearing up for a roster restart in 2024. They’re 2-5 and in current possession of the No. 6 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Trade grade (Bills): A They’re still in a win-now mode, and they’re going to have to get through a gauntlet of high-powered AFC offenses if they’re going to reach the Super Bowl. Douglas has some versatility and should fit nicely into Sean McDermott’s defense. The 29-year-old is a playmaker who has 10 interceptions and 32 pass breakups over the last three seasons. Again, with the pass-heavy nature of the AFC, the Bills were proactive about adding talent to their secondary rather than standing pat. Trade grade (Packers): B-minus It’s nice to add a third-round pick, but they weakened their secondary and surrendered a fifth-rounder to do it. It’ll help the rebuild, especially once they get Rodgers’ dead money off the books, but the Packers essentially traded Douglas to move up about 60 picks in the draft. The situation in Green Bay has deteriorated this season, but that should be expected. The Packers were realistic in knowing they couldn’t build a contending roster with $60 million in dead cap space. However, the rocky development of quarterback Jordan Love for an offensive-minded head coach in Matt LaFleur is the more troubling aspect of a season that has slipped away quicker than most probably expected. By moving Douglas, the Packers have admitted they recognize the playoffs aren’t LInky: https://theathletic.com/5017781/2023/10/31/nfl-trade-deadline-2023-grades/
