  1. I hope you're right, Heffy... I've not no connection to the Broncos, but I've always liked Russ and it sucks to see him struggle like this....
  2. I'd say that was more of a Mike Milbury kind of deal....
  3. Wow...Denver just looks brutal.... Broncos management must be just sick, thinking about what they paid to get Wilson....
  4. ....and of course...who could forget this classic:
  5. .....Linebackers Ham and Lambert.....DB Mel Blount....and two great wide receivers in Swan and Stallworth. I was a huge Kenny Stabler fan in those days. I'd probably still be cheering for the Raiders, but Al Davis ruined it for me when he moved the team from Oakland....
  6. Jeez.....I almost feel bad for you Lower Mainlanders..... I'm trying.....really....
  7. I was a Raider fan back in those days, so watching that replay always stings.... .....but I have nothing but respect for Franco Harris.....great player...great man....and this, just days before the Steelers were set to honor him. I expect we'll see the entire squad wearing #32 for the warmup, or something like that.
  8. I've been saying this for a while now... IMO, it all started when he decided to move Tesla HQ to Texas....it was about that time that he started battling with Bernie Sanders over the fact that large corporations don't pay their fair share of taxes. Right after he pivots to this mantra of not being able to identify with "woke" people....championing "free speech" (when it suits him) and promoting right wing talking points and conspiracies... I think it's all been a smokescreen to cover up for the fact that he's just another uber-rich asshole, who wants to be even richer and see the Republicans, with their policies of tax cuts and deregulation as more favorable to him.... The problem he has is that his target market, in general, sit on the other side of that fence.....so he has to come up with an excuse for his political shift. The ElonJet / Stalker thing is just the tip of the iceberg, IMHO. I believe he's been lying about everything since well before his Twitter takeover and the shine has completely come off of his "tech genius" persona.....
  9. I'm trying to figure out the timeline here.... Around a year ago, Musk moves Tesla to Texas to take advantage of lower taxes, etc. Not long after (if at all) he starts to do battle with "woke" ideology. (I remember at the time, saying that I believed this was just a smokescreen for his desire to make more money) So he starts battling with Bernie Sanders.....starts tweeting how he can no longer support Democrats....and finally takes the plunge into full-on alt-right . While all of that was happening, he appears to have lost somewhere in the neighborhood of $100 billion in personal wealth.... Do we think these two things are related? (I know I do)
  10. Is that the one where on 4th down they sent everyone out to the flank and left the center and QB by themselves to face 4 pass rushers?
  11. I wish I could be a fly on the wall for when that play comes up in the film session.... I'd also tape his QB rating to his locker room stall, if I was the QB coach....
  12. I'd vote for Snoop.... A lot of people see him as this stoner Hip Hop star, but he's actually smart AF and runs several successful businesses....
  13. It's too bad the Texans couldn't pull off the huge upset of the Chiefs, but being the only team in the AFC East to win this weekend, makes it a lot easier to take....
  14. Gotta say, this whole tournament was a bit of a disappointment for me.... Holland and England bow out in the QFs, but that was expected....I also thought Canada was in tough, but not to get even a single point out the Group Stage matches is very disappointing.... But what what disappoints me more than anything is that I lost all respect for Lio Messi in this tournament. Going in, I would have been right there with everyone else, being happy that he finally won a World Cup.... But the way he and his teammates comported themselves these past two weeks (and especially against the Dutch) has completely ruined it for me. Not to rain on anyone's parade, but that's how I feel. Hopefully 2026 turns out better.... Oh, and BTW, Messi is not the GOAT....that is still Pele....
  15. Does it feel like the Vikes made some kind of deal with the Devil? A month ago, Josh Allen fumbles the snap on his own goal line, handing Minny the victory.....then we see yesterday's result....and then there's the fact that 10 of their 11 victories have been by a single score.....
  16. Was pulling for the Atlas Lions, so it's no surprise that Croatia won.... It likely means that Argentina wins tomorrow, as well....
