Israel attacks Iran UPDATE: Trump claims a cease fire among all countries
GobbleDog replied to Frozenbeernuts's topic in The Geek Club
Trump does have a history have discrediting US intelligence... "Mr. President, your own intelligence agencies and even our allies agencies have concluded Russia meddled in the election, what do you have to say?" "I just spoke with this man (Putin) and he said they didn't do it." -

US stock futures rise after Trump says ceasefire reached between Israel and Iran 🏆
GobbleDog replied to Maximum Overkill's topic in The Geek Club
Regardless of anything... I found it interesting that Israel who's in the middle of Gaza and fighting Hamas, dealing with Huthi rebels in Yemen, along with Hezbollah forces in Lebanon - thought "what the hell - let's blow up some Iranian nuclear facilities." Might think that might be biting off more than they can chew. But obviously Israel's military can chew a lot. And they know it. -

I knew Iran had done that years back (warning before a strike - save face, but not escalate)... but Trump shouldn't publicly Td dance on it. We want them to give warnings. They sure as hell won't get any from us. -

In my defense, I said educated and cultured. Iranians tend to have higher morals/values compared with their Middle Eastern counterparts. Can't quantify it, but that's my general understanding and experience. Though, that is shocking Palestine has such high literacy rate. Wouldn't have thunk it. -

I don't think that's your average Iranian. Most Iranians are cultured and educated. Unlike Palestinians, Afganistans, Iraqi's, etc. If the current Iran regime collapsed and average/moderate Iranians took power, I think they'd impress. I'm not saying we should or shouldn't get involved... complex issue. But, they aren't Middle Eastern scum like you'd assume. I imagine many would love to see their authoritarian government removed. -
Jacobs had just over 300 touches.... 301 car and 36 rec to be exact. So if he'd finished with 299, people would be cool? The 300+ touch is slightly concerning, but moreso superstition. He won't get 301 carries again with Lloyd healthy and Wilson playing so well last yr. But he's gonna own the goal line... Led league with 22 last year converting 11. Love ain't gonna do that work. In standard league, ya could argue Jacobs being top 5 Rb.
-
Being STANDARD ... it's Hawkeye for 1st place. Henry & Jacobs in standard is money. Mahomes later, Bigsby future stud, Jennings - nice. I do think McConkey and Adams are being drafted at their ceilings, but meh... they'll be close even if they don't quite get there. 2nd place Matt's Eagles. Jeanty & Irving for the standard stuff works. London, Prescott ... good stuff. Even snagged Downs late and Kraft in standard should be good. 3rd place place Fumble though didn't love Higgins that early, or Dobbins later... and in standard Kincaid at Te? Dude never scores - Allen and Cook eat all the short stuff. Initially liked Polecat's early picks, but it went off the rails fast. Waddle - meh. Jav Williams - ugh. Murray ? Jeesh... surely somebody better in the 8th, hell I'd rather have Goff/McCarthy/name a Qb. Kyle Pitts in the 9th? Surprised he's even drafted.

Actually the Bucs insanely decided to move Godwin out of slot that year. Put him directly back after that disaster.

When gun violence happens to gun-right supporters, it's sad, but ironic. When gun violence happens to everyone else, it's just sad.

Interesting. Here's the cliff notes: Pilot told co-pilot to lift landing gear, but dot-head raised the flaps instead. Never fly with Apu.

Derek Carr earned $205 mil over an 11-year career. 1 playoff appearance. And lost.

GobbleDog replied to Frozenbeernuts's topic in The Geek Club
The Iranian regime only cares about staying in power. A full blown war would jeopardize that. They'll send drones and saber-rattle just to save face, but they'll never go to war until the regime's very existence is threatened. -
How does a guy with 116 targets and 8 Tds possibly finish Wr 42 ppg? Harrison caught just 53% of those targets, and only 62% were even charted as catchable. Murray's passer rating when targeting Harrison... 87.0. "I'm not one of those guys that's going to sit there and kill myself watching film. I don't sit there for 24 hours and break down this team and that team and watch every game because, in my head, I see so much.”- Kyler Murray

1) Jefferson 2) Lamb 3) Any elite Wr 4) Gibbs I only invest early draft capital into a position less likely to get injured or under-perform. Thus elite Wrs. I'll take my Rb chances with slightly less valuable picks.
-
Not sure how I feel about that quite yet. I'm still in the grieving process.
-
They can't even afford Cook unless they make some drastic roster moves... currently $1.7 mil cap space. Sadly... Curtis Samuel is the 8th highest paid player on the team with a cap hit of $9.1 mil. Dude had 31 rec last year. I'd forgotten they even signed him.
-
Chubb is cooked. Among Rbs with 100+ carries... Dead last in yds-after-contact; 2nd worst in ypc; 3rd worst in missed tackles/attempt; 4th worst in explosive run rate ... among many other ugly metrics.
-
Might be the wise move. I already thought Mixon's adp was inflated just based on the age, mileage, and declining metrics down the stretch. Now ya have to worry about Chubb vulturing Tds too. Many are gonna over-draft Mixon just based on last year's total stats and pure name recognition. Won't be me.
-
Don't know if adding Chubb means the Texans are concerned about Mixon, their backups, or both. Chubb will get some goal lines, but his metrics last year .... oof. Surprised he even got signed. Mixon slumped badly down the stretch. Ypc, yac, broken tackles all declined. Lot of millage on him.
-
I didn't know what to make of the Jags backfield and was sorta leaning toward Tuten like everyone else ... just being the huge fast rookie (everyone loves a hyped rookie). But after I took an unbiased look at the film and metrics, I realized how good Tank actually was. The ypc, yac, broken tackle rate, and homerun ability. Last year, he lived up to the 2nd rd draft equity the Jags invested. Etienne is still there (man he stunk), and now they have the rookie - but Tank is the best Rb on the roster and I think he'll prove it in training camp. Rb 40.!. Feel like I've found hidden gold that nobody sees because Etienne and the rookie are clouding up the situation. Watch some film - look at the stats/metrics... ya might come to the same conclusion.

After some research... I'm warming up to Tank Bigsby. Youtube "Tank Bigsby 2024" and just pick a few random weeks.... gritty runner. Head first gaining tough yards. Also apparent how bad the Jags run-block was, rarely creating holes - Tank's horrible 1.8 yds-before-contact / attempt is a testament. Made the most of what was given - impressive he finished with 4.6 ypc. The few times he did get a hole, he popped through and shook tackles. Interestingly, Tank tied Derrick Henry with the best yds-AFTER-contact / attempt at 2.8. Playerprofiler ranked his juke rate at #6 in the league. His broken tackle / attempt tied for 12th best in the league. Solid runner. Only had 16 targets, catching 12... two drops (16.7%). His scouting report out of college even mentioned his 11.6% drop rate. Be nice if he could fix that part of his game, but currently doesn't seem like he'll get too many targets - probably more than last year, but not much. The former 2nd rounder out of Auburn (good stock) was solid and likely continues improving into his 3rd season. Jags invested some in that o-line so they should have better run-blocking (who knows). Many are hoping Tuten with his size and speed has a huge impact, but he's a rookie - don't know yet if he can match Tank's skill. As for Etienne... 3.7 ypc. Unsurprisingly 1.9 yds-before-contact (again o-line), but after contact... 1.8 (oof). Bet Jags regret picking up that 5th yr option now. He'll get a few receptions, but I wouldn't expect much else. Tank's adp ... Rb 40. Won't take much to meet that adp. Based on where things stand now, I'd ballpark him to finish around Rb 25. Though we'll see where things stand in pre-season. Have a feeling his adp is gonna shoot up once it's apparent he's the lead dog.

Reddit doesn't tolerate much. Had to start a new account last year after getting a few warnings from some rough jokes. Then I posted in some news headline ... can't remember exactly - something about an extremist nut who was calling for gays to be exterminated. "I don't agree... but I don't disagree either." BANNED Ok, bad joke. But banned for simply not agreeing with the side I was supposed to? Jeesh. I no longer visit news headlines. Can't help myself from making stupid comments.

Apparently the drones were packed into the roof trailers of 18-wheelers which drove near the air bases... and out they flew. No word if the truck drivers were Russians who thought they were making ordinary deliveries - or Ukraine agents (as suspected). After all the drones left, the trucks self-destructed. There's video of police examining the interior of one truck when it goes kaboom. Incredible operation.
