I got to admit.. I laughed out loud at this one.

Keep dreaming, it is not going to happen, unless Doofus Don decides to join Mitch as part of droolers united…

I'm not the one claiming to have some inside track of how Stefanski conducted training camp and whether he called for accountability behind the scene. You may wish to re-read the thread.

I asked you, "And what is it you base that on?"

... I told you that my opinion was based on "my experience" playing the game. I played for both kinds of coaches.. a HC who believed in blood & guts football and lost every game...and a cerebral HC who knew how to teach the game with an emphasis on football basics such as blocking and tackling.. resulting in winning football.

Thank goodness ole B & G was fired after that season and was replaced by a HC who knew how "to teach" the game with an emphasis on "execution and football basics."

Watching Indiana win the NCAA with a coach who seemed to strike the right balance between discipline and a team that appeared to emphasize execution and football basics.

Watching the Super Bowl, Seattle ran the ball for 141 yds and passed for 202 yds...a balanced attack that resulted in a time of possession of 33:11 compared to the Patriots 26:49 ToP...resulting in a 29-13 Seattle win...old fashion football, ya know..?

In all honesty, Seattle turned the game over to their offensive line and they produced and dominated and it paid off for the Seahawks.

You can claim that football basics are not important in today's game...I say you are wrong about the type of football that was played during Lombardi and Ditka's time. The proper balance between discipline and teaching football basics can be hard to beat..IMO..mac

And this comes from Project 2025's blueprint for executive impoundment power

I don’t think he has cared to this point, but now he’s playing for a contract. My hope is that his arm remains sore, he is limited in training camp and Monken sets him aside.

Let’s get ready for the season with Shedeur and see what happens.

Hegseth Says His Naturally High Testosterone Has Helped Him Apply Makeup

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Wednesday credited his “super-high testosterone level” with his ability to apply “military-grade makeup.”

“In order to be Secretary of War, I have to be Secretary of Warpaint,” he told reporters. “And my warpaint is by Estée Lauder.”

“Being blessed with off-the-charts testosterone has enabled me to perform with extreme lethality,” he said. “Make no mistake: I am lethal with an eyebrow pencil.”

In perhaps his boldest claim, Hegseth said that his makeup technique proved that he had the highest level of testosterone in the Trump administration, with the possible exception of Jeanine Pirro.

Kyle Shanahan injured in car accident: 49ers coach to begin training camp in limited role

Reports say Shanahan suffered a broken nose, three broken ribs, a broken hand, a concussion and required more than 40 stitches to his face after the July 14 crash

The San Francisco 49ers have officially reported to training camp but will begin building the foundation for the 2026 campaign with their head coach limited. The team announced in a statement Saturday that Kyle Shanahan was involved in a car accident last week and suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Shanahan, 46, will still participate in team activities, but on a limited basis. Assistant head coach Chris Foerster and the team coordinators will handle the bulk of the head coach duties while Shanahan recuperates.

Here is the full official statement from the 49ers:

"San Francisco 49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan was involved in a car accident last week where he suffered non-life-threatening injuries. Coach Shanahan will participate in team activities on a limited basis at the start of training camp while he recovers. Coach Shanahan and the 49ers organization would like to sincerely thank all first responders involved for their efforts and care.

Assistant Head Coach Chris Foerster along with team coordinators will handle head coach responsibilities during this period."

The accident occurred July 14 when Shanahan collided with an SUV near his Northern California home, per ESPN. While the injuries weren't life-threatening, they were significant. ESPN reported that Shanahan broke his nose, three ribs and his hand, suffered a severe concussion and needed more than 40 stitches to his face.

Shanahan was taken by paramedics to a local hospital and released later that day. The other driver was not injured, according to Palo Alto Lt. Nicholas Martinez. He also told ESPN that drugs and alcohol were not involved, and both drivers cooperated with law enforcement.

Since the crash, Shanahan has been recovering at home and informed the coaching staff of the incident Tuesday. He has yet to be cleared by doctors for full coaching duties and won't be until his concussion symptoms subside.

Shanahan is entering his 10th season as the 49ers' head coach. Since being hired in 2017, he has become one of the league's top coaches, compiling an 82-67 (.550) regular-season record and a 9-5 playoff mark. Under his leadership, San Francisco has made two Super Bowl appearances and is coming off a 12-5 regular-season campaign in 2025 that ended with a divisional-round loss to the eventual Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks.

Day 41 of McConnell still missing.....................

"But what about that ten days that one time?"

Good riddance then. More of the same games he played before e when he left us. Thanks for the ring. LeBron is Frodo: He keeps disappearing. fan up, y'all.

You are correct. Easing limits on coal plants for emitting mercury and other toxins costs us all.

I prefer to view the glass half full.

However, there is a lot to come together in order to win.

A entire new coaching staff who has no experience with this roster.

A load of rookies who will need to be depended upon.

A quarterback battle that splits reps when the starter needs more reps.

The loss of a good DC and the best defender in the NFL.

A young receiver room who needs to develop chemistry with a single quarterback. A quarterback battle between two guys with very little recent success.

Tall task on the plate to win games.

Monken is the right guy because he is experienced but his first head coaching job in the NFL will be a challenge.

I wish I could be optimistic but there are so many question marks.

Whoever wins the QB battle will need to play at a high level right away or the season could go sour fast.

I have one of those Drivers Licenses that have the star on it. I had to show my Birth Certificate and some other items to Verify who I am.

The Birth Cert I showed had the stamp on it... It was an Original.


Did you know that that is not an acceptable form of ID for the Save Act?

I'm convinced that the Save Act is nothing more than a way to suppress the vote. I thought that was illegal!

If Sanders plays bad that alone may put the Browns in the top five draft picks next year. And that doesn't even account for the additional first round pick or the additional second round pick they got for Myles.

It's being reported that Judkins is officially a "full-go" for Training Camp.

Remembering back to the game where he went down with the knee/leg, this is absolutely phenomenal.

Pentagon lowers official Iran war death toll, omitting four killed this month

The Pentagon lowered its official death toll for the Iran war to 14 from 18 in the space of a day, after the Trump administration removed four service members killed this month from the count, according to the Defense Casualty Analysis System.

The Pentagon’s casualty database showed seven of the 14 total deaths were classified as “hostile.” The New York Times reported the change in count earlier.

Three military officials told the Times that the four service members killed this past weekend — three in Jordan and one in northern Iraq — were struck from the list because their deaths came after President Donald Trump declared a ceasefire in April. All of the deaths listed on Thursday U.S. time on the website, which said it was updated as of Wednesday, occurred in March.

The Pentagon and the State Department did not immediately respond to CNBC’s requests for comment.

Yeah, that's me. I look pretty good for being almost 68 don't I? It's my conditioning cream.

You see, when you're not a homophobe things like your comment are easy to laugh at.

Tate brothers' lawyer calls for Trump to block UK extradition request amid new charges

I believe that eventually you are correct. After all that is the goal and I don't look for them to stop until they achieve that goal. The "some are further out" part is the most likely scenario. That's most likely the best one can do at this point.
