Agreed. That's the 4:25 standalone November sweeps game, probably played the week of or the week before Thanksgiving. (I meant to quote the point about the Chiefs game potentially being on week 17 on MNF.)

Escape from Alcatraz was good, too. I haven't seen the terrorists spring Ramzi Yousef from Florence Supermax. That tells me all I need to know about how effective that place is. No need to sink a fortune into Alcatraz.

Is a failure. Reopen Alcatraz, but not a single thing done about inflation. What a waste.

Jesus was a brown migrant. I doubt He likes your extreme radical positions on immigration. That is a hoax.

The outrage isn't fake. But the B-Man is a Fake Catholic. You're exactly right about Dolan. He yukked it up with Trump before the election. This nonsense is exactly what he wanted.

Sloppy route runner. Will fit in well with Kincaid if Kincaid doesn't clean up his act. He better be. Cooper wasn't that good. Hollins was a lot better than anyone thought he would be. We will miss Mack.

Such is the price of "saving the country," I guess. I'm glad that these likely paycheck to paycheck truck builders agreed to bite the bullet and lose their trailers and go hungry and not go on government assistance (because that's for socialists only) so that we can "save the country" from whatever it is that required "saving." I will admit he's got a point about overconsumption. But I completely agree with you - that's a personal decision. And the overconsumption in no way justifies all of his nonsense BS re: tariffs and debt and destruction of wealth.

Coop was replaced (maybe upgraded) with Palmer. Samuel is healthier now than he was last year. Coleman has experience. Shakir is a stud. Kincaid won’t have two friggin broken kneecaps. It’s not an unreasonable play to run it back.

Let’s make another point in defense of Beane - in the KC playoff loss at home, we spent THE WHOLE GAME setting up the shot play to Diggs that may well have won the thing for us. And what happens? “WR1” drops the ball, which was one of the best throws I have ever seen in that stadium. A veritable dime. So we can pay these guys huge bucks and have someone cancel them, or have them prone to error, at the worst times. Or we can work on enhancing our ability to stop opposing offenses while playing the same cards in the hand that yielded the highest scoring offense in the league last year. It’s a no-brainer to me. I’m with Beane.

This too shall pass. Beane probably could have been a little calmer. But there’s a human point that he has spent tens of thousands of hours on his craft, and has to stand by and take public criticism from guys who are functionally illiterate in that area. And his points are fair ones. I’ll add this (not having seen anything other than the short YouTube clip): how quickly we forget bringing in castoffs like Linval Joseph, Zion Logue, Jordan Phillips, and Quinton Jefferson mid-year to address a failing DT position group. Want to fault Beane for getting stuck with Kincaid and not trading up for Addison? That’s a fair point. But having watched the last two years, I can’t believe that anyone has an issue with rebuilding the DL in this draft, even at the expense of the WR group. Another good point. It’s not like Beane ignored WR altogether. Much like DL, we locked up one of our own (Shakir) and got a B-level FA at the position who fits a need (Palmer, relative to Hoecht). That’s what talk radio and podcasts are all about. And it’s why I don’t listen.

His dad owes us for home run throw forward. I hope this kid makes it right.

It also tells me the staff doesn’t like Ingram all that much.

That's ugly. I knew there was a contested allegation, but I didn't know the depth to it. I don't want that guy around the team, or in my town.

I’m wondering the same thing.

Interestingly enough I saw Rapp yesterday out and about. I think he may have taken the injury point to heart because that guy is swole. He looks huge.

West Virginia is now a red state. FYI.

I always knew that Jesus is not your true king.

He’s also not in town, as far as I know. FWIW.

Probably not, based on my comings and goings in OP and noticing who is not at home. I can say that one high end starter — who I have seen a bit during the off-season — did not appear to be in town as of this morning. (Don’t ask; I’m not outing the person.)

Agreed completely.

Maybe trump should stop taxing the middle class with his stupid tariffs. That’s one way to get the house in order.

Deadlines are magnets! Also, on a serious point, these tariffs and the approach to them are so friggin dumb. If the tariffs are so critical, then why pause them? And why, through the pause, give our competitors time to reorient and direct trade away from us? It's hard to fathom that someone could be so stupid as to approach this issue in this way. MAGA has nothing. There is literally nothing good about this.

Give me a break. They’re birds of the same feather. Both actions contributed to inflation. Pent up demand low supply and free money yields inflation.

But Trump tells the truth. Or Alex jones. Or Lara Loomer. You just believe what you want to believe. That’s it.
