    5 years ago the franchise tag for QBs was around 18.51M. If we apply that same multiple to this year's franchise tag it will be 54.29M in 2025. Obviously Dak and Co realize this and are offering 2 proposals which accomplish 2 things. 

    1) they are offering an unpalatable offer in an effort to make their other proposal (4 year deal) more appealing 

    2) they are taking into account an ever appreciating salary cap and attempting to make that 5th year more reflective of future market QB rates. 

    I think Jerry will give in on the 5th year, and he probably should. Wouldn't that be better for the "Dak Sucks" crowd? Since we can move on from him if he really does regress over the next few years?

    More info from Q poll. Bloodbath. 

     

    This poll is bullshit. His cult will never, ever, ever be less than 42%. There's literally nothing he can do to lose these people. He could shoot someone on 5th Avenue, then rape their daughters in front of them, and they'd cheer him on. That's just the fucking truth about the good ol USA these days.

    i added the emphasis. scary black man angry about being harassed seems to justify whatever for cops.

    This picture will be blown up and placed on an easel in front of the jury for closing arguments. No way those guys get convicted in Georgia. At best a series of mistrials. You can't convince me that you can get 12 people in Georgia to agree that it was murder. There will always be at least one asshole who passes the "racist" test in voir dire but will refuse to convict an ex-cop for murdering this guy. I mean, just look at him! He obviously wasn't just a guy jogging years after this photo!

    The more that comes out about this family....there's a whole lot there to unwrap already.  And I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that they didn't love her black boyfriends.

    They may very well have been "one of the good ones" so don't count that out.

    Joe's got a podcast - I forget what it's called.  He gets like minded folks on so they can backslap each other, but you still get the sense that if he were elected he'd have staff meetings with literate participants who engaged in normal conversations about actual issues. 

    If he loses half his brainpower every few months, I figure by around 2026 or so he'd be getting into Trump mental territory.

    Joe will have smart regular people to do the heavy lifting if he gets to that territory. I sincerely think that if he would consider letting his VP take the nomination in 2024 if he ages that much in the first few years of his term. Either way, he will never, ever be in trump territory. Trump is stupid, senile, but started from a position of being a complete piece of shit human being. Senility just made it worse. Joe's senility would be handled properly and would not be an embarrassment to the rest of the world. He won't rage tweet from the shitter like a beta teenager 3/4 of his days and that alone is a needed change.

    Reply with "wow, they are 9th in the nation of all schools?"

    Or "Wow, I just looked it up. Better than Chicago, Northwestern, Penn, Columbia, Duke, and MIT? How incredible!"

  7. So media reports that its down to Tulsa or Austin. Which means Tulsa will offer free land and no taxes in perpetuity and Tesla will use that in bargaining with Austin which won't go quite so far but will still win because we can't compete other than corporate welfare. And the whole thing will end up being a complete scam, because Musk is a scam artist. Another fucking corporate welfare circus. At least the country dumbshits here are having fun shitting on California cause it makes them somehow feel better about their miserable selves.

    You'd still have to deal with the State govt, which I don't think will be blue for a long ass time.

    At least your state republicans are willing to pay teachers a living wage. Our state legislature is literally a bunch of mouthbreathers. And we have 70% trumpers. I found a nice little bubble in the middle of Tulsa where I can associate with several normal people, but the trumper element can't be avoided altogether here.

    March 28: Biden consolidates support, but trails badly in enthusiasm: Poll

    Indeed, strong enthusiasm for Biden among his supporters – at just 24% – is the lowest on record for a Democratic presidential candidate in 20 years of ABC/Post polls. More than twice as many of Trump’s supporters are highly enthusiastic about supporting him, 53%.

    April 29: Joe Biden Has An Enthusiasm Problem

    A new poll from Emerson University released Tuesday found that while Biden leads Trump by 6 points, only 45% of Joe Biden’s supporters said they’re extremely or very excited to vote for him, while 55% said they’re only mildly or not that excited, a –10 point deficit.

    Trump, meanwhile, enjoys much more excitement from his base, with 64% saying they’re extremely or very excited, compared to just 37% saying they’re mildly or not that excited.

    Trump is a fucking cult, of course they love the shit out of him. What a dumbfuck comparison.

    I will jizz in my pants if Biden wins TX. 

    I’ll move back to Texas. Seriously, I’ll quit my job and put the house on the market. Dallas or Austin. I’ll be back. I told my wife the same thing when Hilary looked like a small possibility. Said the same when I though Beto could beat Cruz but was really disappointed with that result.

    It's true that people don't hate Joe, but they also don't love him. So if turnout is the key (which it will be, I think) then we've got a huge problem on our hands. While people hate Donald, they also love him.

    The thing that bodes super well for Joe right now in polling is, in my mind, the massive shift in old people's preference. They vote and they don't even have to be enthusiastic to do so.

     A lot of people love Joe, mostly because he was Obama's VP and Obama is still immensely popular. Bernie lovers don't love Joe. Stop pretending that your feelings are the popular feeling. Joe won the primaries, by a lot. People like him, some love him, a few hate him. 

  12. So he’s supposed to have called the cops? Yeah I dont think so. As soon as bubba tells the cops that the black guy it suspicious and won’t “comply” the cops would be even more dangerous to his safety. I just can’t even imagine what it must be like to face this shit as a black person these days.

  13. The waving song isn't really our fight song, but Ride 'em Cowboys probably wouldn't sound good in 8 bit anyway. The history of our fight song trilogy is actually kind of interesting, to me at least. It's not an all time classic, but I like it well enough.

    Balcones Shiner Bock is interesting, opens up a little, and lands somewhere on the decent scale. It'd be fun to boilmaker it with a Shiner Bock beer.

    I was thinking of driving to Dallas this weekend to hunt for it (like I said earlier even if it’s average I still want it in my cabinet) but I read online that someone found it in OKC so I checked the warehouse store here in Tulsa and there it was! I agree that it had a bite at first then opened up. I’m really enjoying it.  Very different but I can pick up hints of their single malt and hints of the shiner malt. Just enjoyable all around especially for the price.

    Outside of the outrage (which is justified)...why is an EMT hanging with a “no knock warrant” guy? Girl perspective. Hopefully, he was a great guy and good in bed because his dumbass is the reason cops showed up and he is also the fucker that got her killed. Also, fuck the police and their bs training. 

    He wasn't the target of the warrant. They guy they were looking for didn't even live in that complex and it turns out was already in custody. At least that's what the article says. It was a mistake in person and location. Oopsie poopsie!

    I see.
    and the same scheme of rotating TEs isn’t a tad prosaic? 
    At least you don’t get your panties in a wad and get too emotional about it. Troll if you must but honestly as a Cowboys fan my whole life (Danny White took pics with me as a baby) I can honestly say This is a prove it year for all players on this team. All of them.
