The only way is up from last year in terms of talent and coaching. But there are way too many new parts that have to come together, plus some key missing pieces (OT, possibly CB) for me to think we have a real shot at a division title this year. 

Right. Peters literally referenced San Fran's 1st year when they got there. Said something like it was tough days, but they saw their work starting to pay off in the development of guys throughout the season. It didn't equal a lot of wins right away, but hard play and installing the way they did things was clearly the goal for that year 1. Could Washington overachieve? Yeah. But this is a building the foundation year. Including a rookie QB taking his lumps.

Convince me that she's not a deepstate plant to destroy the House GOP from the inside out.

They clearly aren't rushing him since with the few changes they'd had, they kept him in AAA.

Still...... Got Wood yet?

after seeing what happened to Holliday yes keep crews down as much as possible. no rush 

Crews isn't even being considered soon. Its James Wood who will be next and well before Crews.

Nice sweep of a terrible team. Taking that step forward means doing what they did against Miami.

so, how soon are we hoping to see the Commanders back to signing vets?

Wave 3 of free agency is already happening. Eagles signed that OL. They are talking to agents again. Also looking at team who might be about to release some players in positions we want because they drafted his replacement and he's making too much for them.

US university with a website dedicated to it, which is current, saying the same things. 
 

no this isn’t from 60 years ago in another country. 🤷‍♂️ 

And it doesn't mention dogs. This is about dairy cattle. You're terrible at this. Now go fetch us some opinion piece from Alabama where they talk about how it's cool to shoot dogs who they don't like. 

We know you googled "Euthanize a dog with a gun" and came up with that article, but didn't see https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/local/virginia/man-shoots-and-kills-dog/65-18c39d36-386c-4415-87ed-e33eaac8206c.

nih has a publication on humane euthanasia 

That's from a Canadian Vet Society from over 30 years ago that references other sources going back to the 60s. There are also still books sitting in libraries that are bound with human skin. 

We all get it. Some cultures or groups have different beliefs when it comes to pets, farm animals, or animals in the wild. 

It also doesn't sound like she was particularly "humane". Not saying she tortured those animals like Michael Vick, who is a piece of **** too. 

Still, **** her and like many have said, there are other options like trying to rehome or taking the dog to a shelter. She sucks and I hope every night she has nightmares of being chased by dogs for the rest of her life...... and her fancy teeth that she just got done, fall out of her head tonight.

Desantis was going to fold faster thar Superman on laundry day. He's unnecessary to fatso and it's not like he's going to go campaign for him in Pennsylvania for people who need to be convinced. ****, he needs Nikki Haley for that. 

Phew. Felt like Finnegan was super shaky there. I didn't realize this is a 4 game series. 

Well, this has been interesting.

I mean… I have no tangible way to grade this draft. 
 

I have no idea how it’s going to pan out.

 

But just based on optics and how I felt during it (which is NOT a fair way to grade and nor is it the correct way to grade):

 

Daniels: 100% (Maye would have been a 100% as well)

 

Newton: 90% - BPA pick, but at a position of strength so not weighted for need at all. KA Mc or Dejean here would have been a 100%. The player is phenomenal, though, and I’m excited. 
 

Sinnot: 100%. Agree completely. 
 

Sainristil: 75%. Love the player. But again we’re loaded at slot corner. We can move some guys around and make this better. I don’t think he was the BPA here. But love the player. Doesn’t agree with my strategy and since that’s the only way to bull**** grade here…

 

Campbell: 70%. Needed tackle. Got tackle. Probably a decent value selection. Eh.

 

Magee: 80%. Fits a profile of an athletic LB that gets after it. 
 

Robinson or whatever the safety’s name is: 50%. Don’t understand that pick personally. 
 

McCaffrey: 75%. Good value pick. Probably going to be a decent contributor. 
 

Jean Baptiste: 80% for the value selection of when we got him.

 

-2.5% because I ****ing hated trading with the Eagles and passing on a need/BPA convo that made sense. 
 

80% - 2.5% = 77.5%
 

Which is a C+.
 

Which for a pre see any of these guys draft grade is probably pretty good. 
 

I don’t think I’d have anyone over an 84 or so based on a quick run through of teams drafts and quick math in my obviously well thought out scoring scheme.

Personally, I think grading a draft before at least 2 full seasons is more for fun and otherwise, basically bull****. 

But, I will ask. You weigh a pick in each round the same and then just average the grade? I could see a bunch of different ways to do it. Nailing the first rounder being worth more. Or hitting on a day 3 guy earning you extra credit. Maybe taking a guy who was a projected first rounder in the 2nd?

All I gleamed from this is that after an audit of what Rivera left the roster as, they saw needs everywhere. On top of that, I don't think they looked at this as a draft that is about the upcoming season, but more about 25, 26, 27 with a whole other offseason and draft needed in their minds. 

I'll give them the grade of 🎱 (8 ball emoji) because I don't know **** but when I listened to them talk about their guys. They explained all of their picks better than Ron ever did. 

I'd love to write a question for Dave's postgame. I don't hate Corbin. But how can he feel like he's being the leader of this team when and play guys who simply aren't performing anymore.....in this case, for years. 

Something like "why do you expect different results now? Is there something new being tried in between games?" 

Don't care the people said she was on Cheeto Jesus' shortlist. I don't believe it. She brings nothing extra to helping him win. A State he doesn't even need to campaign in. She has her own legal issues that most people don't really know about. The GOPers that would consider themselves moderate probably still have PTSD from Palin. 

All these suckups aren't going to bring him PA or AZ or VA or Mich. For being a huge suckup, Pence was never MTG level nuts in public. He just had no spine and is a total coward and liar. Donny needs another one of those, who looks like an adult right now in the GOP. The MAGA folks will vote for whoever is the VP pick. They need this person to convince some Conservatives and Indies that they will keep Trump in check "This time". 

Also, I hope this lady is mauled by her farm animals, but she lives to be disfigured and in pain forever. 

Good to beat up on a terrible team. Rosario's average is low enough that if you remove the zero, he can wear that number now. .094? He can wear 94. Or..... DFA'd. That sounds better. 

Rainey under zero pressure didn't look that good. That's a shame. Need him to be much better. 

Good for Winky. That was a big hit.

How long before we give Sainristil the nickname "The Professor?" Love this pick so much.

I heard Doc Walker is calling him the Mean Gopher, because Doc can't remember his name and mixed up Michigan and Minnesota. 

What a joke. He's not injured. He doesn't have it anymore.

Joey Gallo: now 40 Ks. 1 single.

 

3 more Ks. Down to .123. Rosario is almost sub .100. Davey hasn't had enough.

He’s corny in a way that his teammates may resent, because he hasn’t earned anything in the league. Won a championship on a stacked college team and buys his own hype as a winner as he enters the NFL? Yikes. 

I got a good laugh from this. If the stuff about his competitiveness and clutchness show up early in the year, they'll all be buying.

President Joe Biden sat down for a surprise interview in New York with iconic radio host Howard Stern on SiriusXM on Friday. The interview was announced just minutes before the two went on the air.

 

he interview comes one day after a report from POLITICO was published about tension between Biden's White House and The New York Times stemming from Biden's refusal to sit with the paper of record for an interview. The Times pushed back on the report, but condemned the president for not sitting for interviews with traditional media outlets, calling it "troubling that President Biden has so actively and effectively avoided questions from independent journalists during his term."

 

"It is true that The Times has sought an on-the-record interview with Mr. Biden, as it has done with all presidents going back more than a century," the New York Times said in a statement. "If the president chooses not to sit down with The Times because he dislikes our independent coverage, that is his right, and we will continue to cover him fully and fairly either way."

Left out from. The NYT statement....."yeah, we aren't much better than a tabloid and haven't been in a long time. But we continue to be upset with Biden while we also help prop up our Cheeto Jesus, and attack the current President for the dumbest **** we can fit into print."
