re: LA moving toward closed primaries

Posted by bilblues on 1/17/24 at 12:46 pm
As a political independent, I hate this idea. If the parties (which are private political organizations) want to have a process for winnowing down to their preferred candidate, they should do it privately and pay for it privately, and only put their best candidate up. Why should my tax dollars go...
Raiders were a prolific passing offense with Carr and Gruden. Top 10 or close to it every year. He didn’t suddenly forget how to throw a football. Our offensive design is the problem....

[link=(https://www.hessenschau.de/sport/mehr-sport/nfl-in-deutschland-frankfurt-bekommt-wohl-zwei-spiele-v1,football-nfl-100.html)]LINK[/link] The paper's English translation speculates that the Saints could have a return trip to Europe this year to play the Patriots in Frankfurt. The Pats are...
Can someone with a legal background tell us what this might mean for Dominion's suits against Powell and Giuliani?...

I've always love the way the dialogue between Moses and Nefretiri. Nefretiri: Oh, Moses, Moses! Why of all men did I fall in love with the Prince of Fools? Why must you deny me and yourself? Moses: Because I am bound to a God, and to a people, and to a shepherd girl. Nefretiri: A shepherd girl?...
Thanks for this. My takeaway from the article is that Willis has the biggest upside and that if things break right and he continues to develop, he would be really special. That's a big if. The consensus from these insiders on the other top prospects is that they project to be pretty good quarterb...
We don't need to trade for a WR unless we're trying to get a legit #2 to compliment Thomas. Callaway, Harris, and Humphrey are going to be fine as long as they don't have to fully carry the load. We also have Johnson, but I don't know if the Saints are looking at him exclusively as a TE or another b...
Yep. Was stationed in Frankfurt. It was a pretty cool time to be there. All my career, we'd been focused on the cold war military threat and preparing to defend an attack from East Germany, and then it was over just like that. We were all amazed at how fast it happened. Used to have a piece of...
I travelled quite a bit when my son was younger, but had enough flexibility to ensure I didn't miss much. I actually got off the road when he got to high school. I just felt like being home every day as he was beginning to transition to an adult and as he began to navigate social relationships an...

re: I want a Deebo!

Posted by bilblues on 1/17/22 at 11:21 am
Part of what makes Deebo successful is that teams can't only key on him. If you do, you get killed by Kittle, Aiyuk, or Mitchell. This year we had one weapon -- Kamara! Not a fair comparison....

re: USA Today early Mock Draft

Posted by bilblues on 1/13/22 at 12:42 pm
I was never the biggest fan of drafting WR early, but the guys coming out of college are such big time difference makers now that you really need one. It seems like there are 4-5 guys in each draft that are matchup nightmares for defenses right out of the gate, whereas in the past, it took receivers...
It's not a COVID thing. It was bad before. I'm a season ticket holder, and I haven't eaten anything other than popcorn since 2017....
This is an issue. I was at the game yesterday and it was clear that our receivers rarely created any separation. I’m not sure if it’s scheme or route running, but Jones had guys running wide open regularly and we almost never did. What did we have yesterday? Montgomery was I think 3rd or 4th ...
In 2013 or 2014, Tumblr sold for I think around a billion dollars to Verizon and Yahoo. With no porn, they offloaded it a couple of years ago for $3 million....
So, the dude plays through a nasty ankle injury as much as he can last season, gets put on IR and comes back for the playoffs to try to get Drew his second superbowl victory. After the season, it's revealed that he needed at least two offseason ankle surgeries for both high and low ankle issues, and...

re: Saints @ Patriots - Who's going?

Posted by bilblues on 6/10/21 at 4:01 pm
Getting down to the stadium is a pain in the arse. What's fun though is actually going to the Saints bar for the game. Right across from Fenway. Nothing but black and gold. Had a blast there a few years ago. I think it's called Baseball Tavern. Not sure if they found another spot. Check out the New O...

I need to be better about finding out when Saints games are replaying on NFL Network. Working from home because flooding and just flipped to the last few minutes of 1990 Saints vs. Bucs. Saints up 35-7. Steve Walsh, Craig Heyward, Reuben May Artifical turf looks like concrete...
