  1. Florida will always slide into your DMs. Regardless of topic.
  2. As an owner or GM, do you really want to get on the phone with the player and have to calm him down when he gets insulted you don’t want to over pay for him? It’s one thing to tell Irsay to fuck off when he offers an eightball, a voucher for the Landing Strip, and a bottle of Walker blue. It’s another thing if you are Arthur Blank and you’ve put together a guaranteed 175 million plus a side deal to trade for a couple top tier players to fill holes and Lamar starts yelling at you about disrespecting him.
  3. I worked as an intern at TNRCC 25+ years ago. It was pretty pro industry back then, but most of the careers seemed to take their jobs seriously and tried to find balance. I can’t imagine what it’s like now.
  4. I gotta admit, Page 165 is bringing the chuckles pretty well. Quite scrong.
  5. Este The guaranteed price for top tier QBs rn is somewhere between 100 and 150 million. Except for the fucking Browns. The problem isn’t collusion, it’s that Lamar Jackson is asking for 100 million more than the going price, doesn’t have an agent who can at least listen to offers, even if the answer is going to be no, which is part of the reason you have an agent: to screen your calls. It’s pretty much just a pricing dispute between a buyer and a seller with the added complication of no formal business protocols to ease the negotiation.
  6. Cedric Benson would have nodded knowingly.
  7. Honestly, Rodgers is old and Allen turns the ball over a lot.
  8. I think he would make the Falcons a damn good team. But $250 million is a lot of cheddar. The Ravens already offered him more than Russell Wilson got from the Broncos. And now that that deal blew up in the Broncos face, I’m sure everyone is a little wary of big deals for non Patrick Mahomes level players.
  9. I’m not the one holding out for Deshaun Watson’s contract. But feel free to make it personal.
  10. As a Saints fan, it's so fucking frustrating. I'm sure Mickey Loomis will now trade away half his picks to overdraft a swing G/T by two rounds.
  11. There's a lot of players moaning about collusion between the owners, but the truth is Jackson has been good, not great for the last couple of years, is a bit sloppy with the ball, can't stay healthy.....And the Browns were absolute fools with that Watson contract. Nobody is getting that kind of guaranteed money again. At least not for a few years. We are a long way from 2019.
  12. I think cannibalism is literally one of the most deeply held human mores. Across virtually every culture and society. So no, I don’t think humans that consume human flesh by necessity discuss it in direct terms. Also, it would have spoiled the plot. also, they were also talking about actual game as well.
  13. Hence the term “code” there was no other game in that barn. Kinda spoils the episode if in the first 5 minutes they ask how much human flesh they have remaining.
  14. Given the bodies in the barn, I think "Game meat" was code for any meat, including humans.
  15. Este. Starting around Halloween in Maine, the soil can not be dug without earth movers until Mid May, when mud season starts.
  16. From a funding perspective: Scrapping has a cost as well. Often DOD decides to store rather than scrap because it may be cheaper, or their is an environmental reason: Asbestos or other toxic materials, etc. We may be doing a "store it, and we will deal with it later," knowing we probably won't because the money isn't there. If you've ever gone through Philly and seen all those Navy ships in storage, most have been stricken, but some are inactive. The Navy is never going to reactivate them, but it costs a fortune to scrap and clean up those ships, so basically the rot until their about to sink, then the Navy will deal with them.
  17. Hating on Prince is the equivalent of saying you’ve seen hotter than Elizabeth Hurley on campus. No, you haven’t.
  18. That one song they had about religion kinda slaps. It’s got a good bass/rhythm line. But the rest of their stuff is exceptional boring. Here’s mine: Jason Isbell hasn’t been good for awhile. There’s a few good songs on That Nashville Sound. But since then, pretty meh. His cover of Driver 8 is legit bad.
  19. Give it time, we will see an orc wearing a colander at some point.
  20. So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
  21. It was this scene. You’ll see it when you see it. The guy borderline out shown Tom Hanks. RIP to a dude who burned out, rather than fade away. He brought all of us a lot of joy in movies.
  22. I’m going to put this down to died of hard living.
  23. Kinda starting to look like Dan Snyder might be looking at wire or bank fraud. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/35726691/former-partners-say-dan-snyder-used-team-fund-lifestyle-took-improper-loan-their-approval?platform=amp
  24. EH and Hugh Grant are both dirty whores. She had an anchor baby with Steven Bing on a one night stand, and he’s got a couple of baby mommas. They are apparently best friends, I think she’s like a godmother and even helped raise one of his kids.
