We are up 6-4 against Houston with 3 to play. It’s entirely conceivable that we secure that tiebreaker.
If they sweep us to take the tiebreaker, we're probably fucked anyway in that scenario.

I looked into it but it put me in some sort of virtual queue. AFAIK, there's no rush.
Is it one entry per Visa card? Like can I get my mom to sign up and buy tickets for me if she wins the lottery?

From the "even a dumbass piece of shit grifter broken clock is right twice a day" department, I'm totally on board with banning prescription drug advertising.

We have 5 unpaid, I just sent a reminder out. @Zepol87 giving it another week before I come calling for Hurts
I paid (and got your reminder email). Somehow I'm on the list twice though.

Just saw that we fell to 48th in the latest Elo ratings, which is the lowest we've been since 1997. So it's going great less than a year out.

RIP to whatever chump drafted Pacheco. 5 fucking carries, even split with Hunt.

T Boone ain’t walking through that door, but surely they have plenty of oil guys that could chip in for NIL. Maybe not Cody Campbell level, but you’d think they’d be better positioned than the average program.

Gut reaction through 2 games….
- Arch will be just fine. He looks like…a talented but young and inexperienced QB. The offseason hype was always way, way too much.
- RB group is adequate but lacks a true home run threat. Basically a Jaydon Blue type.
- WR easily the most disappointing group so far. Wingo and Moore playing like they don’t even want to be here. I guess the transfer dude’s leg fell off or something.
- TE group is excellent.
- OL kind of a mixed bag for me. IOL better than expected, but tackles worse. I don’t think Goosby looks like the same guy as last year so far. Baker obviously having some growing pains. Reasonable to expect improvement here IMO.

as a trial lawyer, i was simultaneously stunned and damn near pissed my pants laughing at any trial lawyer who would specifically state the actual brand name “Tylenol” as being the cause of autism; in doing so he opened a giant Pandora’s Box of litigation against him and the administration. yet I’m not shocked he did because he’s a regarded village idiot.
Simply, add it to the massive pile of evidence that the dickwad is quite a few fries short of a Happy Meal and doesn’t know shit about fuck.
fucking bring it, J & J. file that motherfucker toDAY, and the first Tuesday after 20 days subpoena his insane ass for depo…with an attached duces tecum (thank you very much)’ordering him to produce at depo ALL the shit they have.
let’s roll, bitches. get this party started post haste!
C'mon dude. You KNOW that J&J is going to cave and bribe their way out of this just like every other spineless corporation in this country. Their CEO will be in the oval office presenting Trump with a solid gold child-proof bottle this week.

I assume RFK believes that it's sunscreen and not the sun that causes cancer.
100%. I'd bet my fucking house on that.

I don’t want to judge Eberflus too much because there’s just no high level talent on this defense. Not accounting at all for the fact that Hurts can run seems pretty dumb though

Elam showing why Buffalo gave up on him

This may be the worst OL in the league. They are going to get Dak killed this year.

The esteemed senator from Louisiana just asked RFKjr if he thought Trump should be given the Nobel Peace Prize for Operation Warp Speed. lol
Oh so they're taking this pretty seriously then, huh?

But obviously somebody somewhere decided killing or at the very least making Americans sick was profitable enough to warrant putting the quacks in charge and casting doubt on science. Heritage Foundation, project2025 folks, someone or some group with big money. I'm not smart enough or dedicated enough to reading about all this to understand where the grift is.
Like fantastically I could say they want more of us sick and broke so they could put us in debtor's prisons and force us into indentured servitude. But my experience is most CEO's are psychos who don't think beyond this week's stock profits, or at maximum this quarter's earnings. So perhaps they don't even see that killing of their workers (either literally or figuratively) won't help their bottom line? Do they really think AI will automagically replace us all so therefore fuck vaccines? Is it that simple?I think the goal is just the general delegitimization of science and expertise. We are the only authority you should listen to. We are the sole source of truth and everyone else is out to fool you. Everything you hear otherwise is just a big coverup. They aren't telling you the whole truth. RFK and his anti-vax crowd are just useful idiots to that end. The Project 2025 types you mention don't give a fuck if anyone gets vaccinated or doesn't get vaccinated. As always, they'll be personally fine. But the more voters they can push into fearful, ignorant, and conspiratorial mindset, the more that they can spoon feed those voters "the truth".
It's the same thing that started happening with the media decades ago. Fox comes along and starts screaming 24/7 that everyone that's not Fox is woefully biased. You don't necessarily need everyone to believe that 100% (although plenty will, and do). You just need to get people to start thinking in terms of "two sides" to every story. If Fox implies "we're one half of the story", then people naturally start to believe that their local newspaper, the evening network news, the AP, etc is "the other half". So, boom, there's no referee any more. There's no common set of facts or common worldview that everyone is starting from. Now it just becomes a matter of can you tell a better story than the other guy? If you can, the details of that story don't even matter, because again, everything is two-sided, and if my story is crazy, then so is the other side's. I just need to present mine more persuasively.
But why stop with the media? That's only one piece of the wider culture. Now they've moved on to higher education, K-12 education, entertainment, science and medicine, and on and on. Politicize everything. Present two sides to every story. Confuse people as to what the facts are, and you've prepared their minds to hear whatever narrative you want to tell. Facts be damned.

N95 masks as opposed to fishing and hunting gaiters work. I religiously wear an N95 when traveling and it’s money. Proper face masks reduce the transmissibility of COVID to an uninfected person by 99.99% if I recall correctly the stats. Not a surgical mask, not a KN95, anyway, social distancing, proper masks and vaccines were 100% on the money the correct course to take. To be blunt there’s not much the CDC did wrong. CDC didn’t pass the mandates - GREG ABBOTT closed Texas down, not the CDC. TRUMP passed the first of two major bailouts that spun up inflation (partly) not the CDC. To be fucking blunt, the CDC trains for this shit and they fucking hit a grand slam here. How we can sit here and criticize the pillars of public health and the recommendations that in hindsight actually saved millions of lives is beyond me.
and what’s worse is we need to keep the research, the monitoring rolling not just Covid which still presents a major health risk (albeit much less) but for future pandemics as our planet is getting really crowded with viral hosts.
Yep. When you see even well meaning people start to stay stuff like "well, maybe the CDC overstepped in hindsight, but....", you know that propaganda works.

Yeah I hate this, last thing I wanted because of optics. I'm in another league with a buddy where the commissioner has given himself the #1 pick 3 years in a row (without a recording of drawing the order). I told my buddy I've been playing FF for 25 years and never once gotten the top overall pick. Now I'm the commissioner with a bunch of randoms who don't know me, and of course I get it. I think pick 4/5 is the sweet spot, but I will be taking Chase at 1.1.
I’m just yanking your chain. I couldn’t care less.
