  1. It was obviously a joint operation between the Norwegians, Danes and Poles. They wanted some fireworks for the grand opening of their new pipeline.
  2. They are going to blame the US to sow discord between our allies.
  3. Add to that the number of physically and mentally disabled that will need long term care.
  4. True there are a lot of ISR and tanker assets in the area on a regular basis but it's the first time I've seen helicopters out there. Unlikely it had anything to do with the pipeline but who the fuck knows. My money is on the Poles. Fuck you Russia just because and fuck you Germany stop pussy footing around because you are worried about gas deliveries. I'm only slightly kidding.
  5. There was US ASW helicopters over the baltic near Kallingrad over the weekend Edit for link:
  6. Looks like a grad strike

    Hudson Card

    Really the only thing holding Card back is that he is consistently late on throws. He has to see something develop and then waits a tick to be sure. We can cherry pick plays where he executed well, but the vast majority of his throws are late... even the positive plays. For example, the Whittington catch on the sideline. Was it a toe drag? Maybe. That throw was also a count late. You know the route, you see the coverage throw the damn ball, and that is an NFL catch with zero question. He has plenty of arm, he is obviously a good athlete. He just doesn't have anticipation... that is something that I am not sure can ever be taught. The idea that the offense is not limited with him the game is absurd. With the addition of Worthy going out, that played right in to the strength of Tech's defense. Three and out definitely have an affect on the defense, but at some point somebody has to be the "guy." Somebody has to make a play when no one else will. We stared at the ball on the ground twice yesterday... we gave up 6/7 4th downs, we were awful on 3rd. Several of those instances we had players, even our "best" players sometimes, in position to make a play, and they didn't do it. When they say winning is hard, this is what they mean. At some point, as a player, you have to stop being a fucking loser. Who cares if it wasn't the perfect play call, who cares if you had played 100 snaps? If winning was easy, everyone would be able to do it. Make a play(s), win the game. It is as simple as that.
  8. Clearly someone has been to Franklin's
  9. I was wondering how long until they blamed it on the Ukrainians or MI6
  10. Man setting himself on fire after saying I don't want to go to war.
  11. Allegedly the shooting of the draft officer
  12. More like you are in the middle of raping Sela Ward with your tiny dick 20% of the way in while screaming to the world that it's okay y'all are married and sound the same when you talk. You also stole her washing machine.
  13. Exactly. Additionally, I have a feeling a good chunk of the draftees, maybe 50-100k, are destined to become truck drivers and loading/unloading grunts with the trucks being cannibalized from civilian use.
  14. Yup or ever. Fleet Carriers aren't allowed through the Bosporus period, at any time. In peace time, we could send an LHA or similar but as other have pointed out there is no real point.
  15. 1
  16. This feel different today imo, especially paired with the new mobilization/marital law. I skimmed an English version of the new laws, my take was more in line with being able to keep the troops already in Ukraine there indefinitely via limiting the ability for refusals and forcing extensions on the guys with expiring short term contracts. Additionally, if they annex the occupied territories I guess technically they can send in conscripts. It's going to be interesting how this pays out domestically for Putin. The first part I don't think will be an issue but sending conscripts regardless if it's legal or not seems like a touchy subject.
  17. Very heavily modded t-55s
  18. Yeah... but they're pussies.
  19. Not when the data set is 1.
  20. Imagine that? When the offense is productive the defense gets to rest and the dynamics of the game tilt in their favor.
  21. Which was a total fuck up of a call. The ball was thrown while the guy was still out of bounds. He was maybe in-bounds for half a second before the ball got there… that is not “RE-establishing.”
