  1. Aaron Glenn is an awful coordinator. Why anyone is interested in him for HC I have no idea.
  2. Aaron Glenn has had three HC interviews for some reason and if someone is dumb enough to hire him, the Lions get two compensatory 3rd round picks because he is a minority.
  3. Lions run defense is good but the secondary is awful and prone to give up big plays. James Houston continues to inch closer as potential pass rush help. He was activated off IR but still not healthy enough to play him yet. See about Ragnow in the second half as he is an important part of the O-Line.

    DESANTIS 2024!!! Ron DeSantis :wub:

    He was a quality candidate but the GOP voters want to stick with Trump.
  5. With Vaitai out, the Lions have exactly 5 O-Linemen that are quality. If Ragnow is seriously hurt that's a big problem.
  6. Trying to grade papers while the Lions are playing is impossible. I shouldn't have focked off so much yesterday evening during the Green Bay game.

    Song/lyric game

    Got there eventually
  8. Our running back had a metal helmet. Yeah. And his dad operated a drone with a really powerful magnet.
  9. This is true and I've seen you post it before. So I was thinking you understood the situation. But then it becomes toothless when the girls/parents on his team and the other teams in the conference are expected to abide by the decision of the student's athletic coordinator with no recourse from their state or federal government.

    That's an interesting observation. Yeah, I don't know.
  11. I'm feeling pretty confident. Earlier this year, Tampa caught Detroit at a great time with seven starters out and still lost 20-6. Stafford is way better than Mayfield and we just beat him. It's mobile QBs who give Detroit grief. Also, James Houston is finally back This'll be at least two scores difference.
  12. That's harsh. I mean fair enough, it rings true in some sense, but this guy's team going in was supposed to get blown out. They took it to the 49ers, gave them hell, to such an extent that it looked they should have won. Thus this comment. To get his team this prepped and game planned was it's own high achievement. Considering the degree of coaching difficulty it took just to get to that point, I'd cut him some slack. I'd as soon criticize Shanahan for his team underperforming.

    Wordle scores

    Wordle 946 4/6 🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Gah, that sucked. I had two consonants and I tried for a longest-of-longshot two and try out what it is that 5 Points deals with every day. Kept picking up an extra letter, couldn't figure out where anything went. After 3, I knew the last four letters but the first one was a 50/50.

    Old country singers had an affinity for singing about being in jail. Johnny especially, Waylon too. This one is Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms and has been covered many times, I don't know who sang it first.
  16. Titans Panthers Cardinals Rangers Angles (formerly)
  17. Interesting for our purposes.... 49ers and 76ers I don't think of that way.
  18. Blackhawks is one word since Black Hawks looks very wrong.
  19. White Sox (pretty much free after red sox) Red Wings I just did the whole NFL division by division. It has none. Closest is Seahawks, don't bother. Canada has two Rough Riders. I think Devil Rays has been shortened to Rays....

    Is The Super Bowl Prearranged ?

    Eric DeCosta, John Harbaugh, John Lynch, and Kyle Shanahan are the ones who arranged it by putting together and coaching rosters better than everyone else.

    I knew a chick that was some form of super vegan, yet would eat dairy/drink dairy products. Not just anything about killing or harming animals was right out but also harming plants as well. So apples and beans were OK, but she wouldn't eat potatoes or beets. Corn plucked from a stalk was OK, but corn harvested by a combine was off limits. You have to be a rich white college chick to get to this level of crazy. Anyone dumb enough to put a ring on that finger would likely want to kill themselves.
  22. Finish your drive this time Green Bay.
  23. Gah... stuffed on 4th down. Looking great though.
  24. Nice first drive by the Pack, although it only ended in three. Then a stop. Keep it up.
