    FU Week 3

    I've never even been to Cleveland, but on behalf of the people who live there, a big FU to the entire Browns organization. Being dominated at home by the New York Giants ? Really!

    That Helps No One Week #3

    Can't argue with that.

    FU Week 3

    An FU to the entire offense. Averaged 45.5 points the first 2 games.

    Desperation WR #3

    (Deebo Samuel Owner) Full PPR Which one do I start ? Christian Kirk @ Buffalo Tank Dell @ Minnesota All the usual WW suspects like Quentin Johnson, Darnell Mooney, Alec Pierce, etc are gone. Kirk is getting up there in age & while he's still listed as WR#1 he's been overshadowed by Thomas the rookie, among others. Brian Thomas Jr.141Yds Gabe Davis 105 Brenton Strange 65 Christian Kirk 29 With the addition of Stefon Diggs, Dell is the odd man out in Houston. Nico Collins 252Yds Stefon Diggs 70 Joe Mixon 44 Dalton Schultz 37 I'm leaning Dell for 3 reasons. He's on a more explosive team, he has 5 carries on the year, & thinking he might have more than normal because of the injuries to Mixon & Pierce. Regards

    So I'm Watching Big Trouble Little China

    Didn't know that. Thanks. I think Rowdy Roddy did a pretty good job though. I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum!

    So I'm Watching Big Trouble Little China

    Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it."

    Ignore performance

    According to WGN Radio, teachers in the city have revealed that “they were instructed by school administrators to give their migrant students a 70 percent in every subject and pass them on to the next grade … even if their migrant students displayed severe academic deficiencies.” https://washingtonstand.com/news/chicago-teachers-instructed-to-pass-migrant-students-despite-severe-academic-deficiencies This is nothing new, and it's been happening in many other states. Minnesota (governed by Tim Walz) has been doing the same thing, albeit in a slightly different way for African-Americans, Hmong, & Somali students for years. What Minnesota does is lower the standards/requirements grade by grade and for graduation.

    I have no choice but to go with Cam Cam Akers Preparing to start against Vikings Joe Mixon Doubtful for Sunday Dameon Pierce Out again Week 3
  11. easilyscan

    Cam Akers, w3 Flex option

    If Joe Mixon sits, definitely. If Dameon Pierce is out as well, even better.
  12. Vote with your pocketbook. Drop Amazon prime. If there's ever a Thursday night game you feel you absolutely need to see, I'm sure there's other ways to view it.

    Mass Deportation

    1: Might as well be an invite, as it also says that if you get caught committing a crime, & officers suspect you're in the country illegally, we'll refuse to contact ICE.

    15 Minute Cities - Coming to a State Near You

    Amazing, in a bad way. Of course it doesn't involve Harris or Trump, so it's not a popular thread.
  15. I'm a capitalist pig, but I'm also a realist. For every true visionary like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, (I assume these are the type of people you were referring to) there's 100 worthless a holes that have an Ivy League business degree collecting huge pay for doing nothing. Bob Iger, who is now in his 2nd stint as Disney CEO is a good example. Warren Buffett is another. He's a great investor, but once you get into the position he's in, you can cut deals that aren't available to anyone else. Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. is now H.J. Heinz Co’s majority shareholder, as Berkshire purchased another 5.4% of outstanding common stock for a 52.5% overall stake. Berkshire exercised a warrant to pay about a penny a share, receiving 46.2 million shares for $462,000. That warrant was a part of Berkshire’s $23 billion acquisition of Heinz in conjunction with Brazilian private equity firm 3G Capital in 2013. Pretty hard to look bad, when you can buy that many shares for about a penny. If that wasn't bad enough, it's not unusual for CEOs who are supposed to be genius, but not only didn't deliver, drove the company into the ground, get huge golden parachutes. Robert Stevenson drove AT&T into the ground. Here's his punishment. This massive sum of money, according to MarketWatch, would provide 60-year-old Stephenson with “a guaranteed income of $274,000 a month for the rest of his days.” This is on top of his total last three years of an average $30 million compensation. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jackkelly/2020/05/12/atts-ceo-steps-down-with-a-64-million-gold-plated-retirement-plan/ Carla Fiorina is another. Jack Welch from GE is another.

    Drafted dissapointments so far 2024

    Not sure if I saw it on TV, or read it, but whatever the source was, it said that in week 1 2024, the number of TD passes was half of the week 1 total from 2023.

    Pick 2, Trade 1. Need TE!

    You're probably right but................. If the Bowers owner happened to be desperate for RB help, it might work. Singletary: Week 1 wasn't great, 10 carries for 37 yards & 4 receptions. The main reason was the Giants getting behind big early to the Vikings and never getting close. Week 2 in a much closer game at Washington, he had 16 carries for 95 yards & a TD. Even on a bad team, he's a 3 down back & that's pretty rare in the NFL. His biggest competition for carries is Daniel Jones. Rushing Player G Rush Yds Y/G Avg Long TD Fum FL Devin Singletary 2 26 132 66.0 5.1 22 1 1 1 Daniel Jones 2 11 47 23.5 4.3 9 0 0 0 Wan'Dale Robinson 2 1 14 7.0 14.0 14 0 0 0 Eric Gray 2 2 6 3.0 3.0 6 0 0 0 Tyrone Tracy Jr. 2 3 4 2.0 1.3 2 0 0 0

    Pacheco Update: Fractured Fibula

    Avoiding it might just be the right move. We don't know if Hunt is in football shape, and if you read the article about CEH, it sounds as if he's pretty messed up.

    I was just about to make that same point. Sucks to think that the video could be fake, but such is life on the Internet.

    what's wrong with mcdonalds?

    I get a 1/4 pounder with cheese value meal about once a month. The burger and fries are always delicious. Might have something to do with the fact that I always order it without onions and pickles so they make it fresh.
