After this draft so far,  I'm more worried JD will end up in the hospital.   We REALLY needed at least 1 of the top OT's

Just throw Mariota out there until you feel the o-line can protect your franchise QB

Had a post get eaten by the 404 monster, but yeah I'm not toooo worried, with Fautanu, Morgan, Guyton, Barton, Amed and Suat still around, but I think Fautanu and Barton are projecting as interior and I'd prefer not to trade up for Amed and Suat and also think they don't have as much first year starter potential.

 

So I'm concerned Morgan and Guyton get grabbed and we're down a tier in terms of prospects.

 

But if we think Fautanu and Barton are potential future LTs then we're fine.

Barton's arms are too short.  34" is the consensus cut-off, and he's not even 33".

So much for trading up with the Vikings.

I won't believe the Bears hype until I see it on the field.  They were supposed to be dangerous last year, too.

Panthers' GM @Gallen5862 probably smiling at how the ES Mock Draft analysis will judge his draft right about now.

I'm sure Marvin Harrison Jr will be a great receiver, but I just don't know about taking a WR so high.

Here's a hint about trade secrets: If all of your employees know the trade secret, it's not a secret.

Don't rinse.  The toothpaste is still doing work after you're done brushing.

I was on the Rangers board and they were talking about how big and tough he is, hopefully WIlson will put him in his place.

Forget that.  After Panarin's headshot on Oshie, we should skip Rempe and go after their stars.

Are they sure Trump is unindicted coconspirator 1? Former president of the United States could be anybody

Damn Jimmy Carter.

Scenario 1: China has spyware app that everybody downloads.  China obtains information from spyware.  Bad

Scenario 2: American app-maker makes app that everybody downloads.  China buys information from app-maker.  App-maker make money.  Good

Scenario 3: All American companies have strong sense of Patriotism and refuse to sell information to China (haha).  Hundreds of Patriotic companies make spyware apps that  people install on their phones.  Hundres of Patriotic companies get information.  A dozen of them have inadequate cybersecurity for dealing with state-level hackers and information is obtained by China.  But Patriots still made money in the process.  Good  

If the information is out there, it's out there.  If you don't address the root issue and just the immediately visible part, you haven't solved anything at all.

Dan Snyder once said that he would learn from his mistakes. Maybe he finally has..

 

 

I have a family member who has recently decided that they should sell their house to collect like 100 grand and instead pay rent. Problem with this idea is that their home mortgage is about half of the rent for a much smaller place in a worse location. Is anything dumber than that with increasing rents vs a stable mortgage that will end eventually? And no, they won't learn. They've made similar decisions in the past.

Are they dumb enough to get swindled on the home?  Asking for a friend me.

It's why the federal government banned feds like me from putting it on our phones.

But let's give Facebook and Apple and Google and Angry Birds and Candy Crush a direct line to the same data, who can sell it to the highest all sufficiently high bidders.

Bro, that's the next law comin I posted.

 

Boeing isn't spying in the US to help China make better fighter Jets that may fight us over Taiwan...this is different, not your typical Spyware.

 

Comparing the typical American company buying and selling our data to China using every advantage possible to supplement us as dominant superpower in the world is mixing apple and oranges...calling tik to Spyware doesn't do it justice...so yes, getting it out of Chinese control is a big deal. 

 

Not good enough, I agree with you, but it's different and it matters.

 

This is ludicrous...contextualizing isn't justifying...

 

Too deep in the forest to see the woods, Alphabet wouldn't turn Guam to dust to further their interests in Asia if they had to, China would.

 

We aren't in a Cold War with Instagram.

If TikTok is being installed on phones that contain classified information detrimental to national security, that's a whole different problem.

Meh TikTok gets singled out because they refuse to sell all the information they gather to the highest bidder like Murican companies. 

 

Lmfao @  "It's one thing for Americans to be spying on Americans". So yeah its ok as long as we're the ones doing it. Whys that exactly? 

And it's not even "We the American government", but "We the American Corporations who will turn around and sell-out to China as long as the price is right"

Isn't that what they're doing here by forcing the sale? 

 

It's one thing for Americans to be spying on Americans...Tik Tok is different being a competing authoritarian budding superpower doing it.

 

This isn't over, this jus getting started, imo:

Potential American GDPR equivalent...game changer...if they can stop talking **** and get the Tik Tok bill to Bidens desk, trying to pour some realism into my half full cup but this closer then we've ever been.

No, they're not getting rid of the spyware, they're just saying "China spyware bad, all other spyware good!"  Get rid of ALL THE ****ING SPYWARE!

Just now, Renegade7 said:

 

It's Spyware, man, even if I agree with you this was a different threat then navigating accountability of facilitating "free speech" alone...

 

It's not the same fight, different risk and priority.

It is spyware.  As are a million other things from American corporations.  Get rid of all the ****ing spyware.

Instead of banning TikTok for being Chinese-owned, why don't we ban the parts of it that are objectionable... and hold everybody to that standard?

And his own, probably...but whatevs.  

 

Too many men...count much? 

They thought they were allowed to do that, since the last time they did that against us in the playoffs, we went to the box for too many men instead.

Who does the reviews on the penalties? League headquarters? 

Probably people who know the league gets paid more money when big market teams like the Rangers progress.

This the game you want to play, Rangers?  You want Tom Wilson to go end someone's season?

Make it count next time, Dowd.

Atrocious ****ing call.  Panarin picked the head and left his feet before contact, so of course he gets nothing and we go to the box.

Shesterkin's leaving a lot of rebounds, we just need to find 'em.

That's gotta be a major for head-hunting.

Wow, look at that zone entry.  Softly dump the puck into the corner where nobody but the rangers are.

**** me.
