1. Unconditional condemnation of the assassination attempt. Political violence is always wrong, full stop. It's tragic and should be universally condemned by ev everyone. Period.
2. Defending free speech means defending it for views we disagree with or hate. Period.
3. The "precipice of civil war" rhetoric - or the counrtry is about to collapse that we see spamming SM is fear-mongering hyperbole that intentionally insites fear and divides us. It's the same thing that much of the main stream media does on both left and right.
4. Genuiinely concerned that this along with all the other over blown sensationalism of 'crime and violence' will be used to justify undermining the upcoming election. As a betting man, I'd wager that Trump and the right wing media with all their over the top rhetoric about the state of the country, may well be positioning himself to cancel/delay the midterms.

I have a feeling they told the Browns they were waiting for him to officially be a player in the NFL. They’ve had precedent to do it with rookies pre-contract, but it’s happening pretty fast now that they made it official. Maybe something that was written into the last CBA prevented it??

I’m really glad that they were able to preserve jobs. That’s is something I always want for every American.
One thing about the nuance of the situation I wonder, though: if their higher cost items are now being purchased, will it be indicative of higher consumer cost end items? Not sure I understand your question. Will prices rise? I'm sure. Look at ANYTHING today. But, apparently, it's putting this 1 company, in a better position. And the employees are happy. Obviously, not those that got let go. It's the age old "pay me more for what I do", and "Then I can go buy cheaper stuff, made overseas." Tariff's raise the end price. In this case, for this particular company, small as it may be, that's good. Tariff's raise the price. So does raising business taxes. Problem is, some are anti the first, but all in on the second. It all raises prices. Heck, I've raised my prices. And I still can't keep up.

It may be prudent to do research before making comments you are unable to prove. At the Senior Bowl practice DG threw a ball 74.9 mph. The record held before Gabriel was Josh Allen at 62. https://www.si.com/college/oregon/f...s-prospects-quarterback-preview-practiceIn addition he is second in total yards in the history of college football. And is the most experienced college qb to enter the NFL. Everything stated can be verified.
Conclusions drawn from personal opinion are not based in fact. Ok so he is as good as or better than Josh Allan. Great. Let's Go!!! Yet again nobody said that.  You're really going to be embarrassed tomorrow when you read that crap sober. I'm sober. I read that he broke a Josh Allan record, and he threw for more yards than all other QB's except 1 in the history of college football, and he is the most experienced college QB ever. Sounds like a can't miss project. He is going to be so great!!!!! What am I missing oh he is waaaayyyy under sized!!! Can't forget that TINY detail. He's played at that size his whole career. Physical specimens can and do fail. Can the guy play or not? We'll see. If the team is so bad that he has to play and if he is terrible then Stefanski needs to go and so does Berry. He's going to play because we need to see what he can do. Flacco is not the future.

I always thought the game looked cool but wasn't practical. I had the MNF version that came out Christmas 1970 featuring the Browns and Jets, Nearly impossible to complete a forward pass.

Re: The origin of Superman.

09/11/25 12:38 AM
I am reading a book titled "Eliot Ness and the Mad Butcher."
It is a true story and it takes place in Cleveland back in the 30's.
It so happens that Cleveland in the 20's was noted as a Dark city. Run by racketeers, mobsters, a corrupt police force, and bought politicians.
A tailor shop was owned by Mitchell Siegel. The shop was robbed and Mr. Siegel died of a heart attack while trying to stop the robbery.
His young son Jerry Siegel was devastated. He dreamt of a hero who would be invulnerable to bullets and would fight crime.
He met an artist named Joe Shuster and they created Superman.
The book is really interesting the Mad Butcher was one of the first recognized "serial killers." Cool story. Cleveland is a dark city. They have these sepia streetlights. It is dark.

Re: Poland shoots down Russian drones in its airspace for the first time

I came from a couple mile walk with my dog last night about 9pm and a notification came up about this-I went to drudge and CNN and there was nothing.
Went to Twitter and it was like WW3 was coming-so something came up on Tik Tok with a "group" that seems to like to track military flights and things going on- They sounded somewhat like preppers to me but some of the info was actually really good-
at one point when the drones were coming into Poland-They stated there were aircraft over Poland from 5 NATO countries
Also about 11pm last night we had (2) bombers leaving Barksdale AFB and they were going over the Atlantic towards Europe.
They also showed a couple military craft going up and down the east cost-Virginia Beach area and up and down from Jacksonville area. They also showed a military craft doing circles in south central midwest.
There was other stuff going on-

Re: On the Plus Side ...

I think the question at the end of the season will be... is Judkins better than Chubb?
Chubb gaining 60 yards on 13 carries with a long of 13 isn't special. It's very normal. I think that was the FO's fear since Chubb is 2 years removed from injury. I disagree that is still 4.6 yards per carry. If he had 20 carries he is over 90 yards and pushing a 100 yard game. 2nd and 6 or 3rd and 2 are downs a distance that keeps offenses on track. The fact Judkins was not under center week 1 and no Chubb is on Andrew Berry. Chubb would have provided value for Judkins to learn behind and provide a running back that could keep the offense on track down and distance that the Browns did not have Sunday. 4.6 would be Chubb's worst average of his career outside of last year when he clearly wasn't fully healthy and the OL played rather poorly. If Chubb had 20 carries, there's a chance that number goes down. He had plenty of carries for 3 yards or less. 13 isn't really a big sample size. Sampson did just fine keeping the offense on track. He was PFFs 5th best rated RB in week 1. (Chubb in the 20s) Admittedly, it was more through the air, but whatever works. The Texans scored even fewer points than we did, and that's with their kicker making his FGs (all 45+ yards.) RB was not our problem. 6 bad plays, none of which involved the RB, were why we lost. 2 WRs popping up passes perfectly for DBs, 2 missed kicks, Diabate biting on a play fake on Fant's TD, and Cam Thomas losing backside contain borderline horrifically on Chase Brown's cutback TD. 4.6 by Chubb would have been a lot better than the putrid 3.0 that our nonexistent running game put up. Samson had a high rating for his great job in catching so many dink and dunk passes and turning them into something better. Samson did not run well at all at 2.42 ypc and he was given plenty of chances. IMHO he is just too small and weak to break through nfl tackles. He has some nice hands though. Would be nice if Judkins is ready to play against the Ravens but no way he will know enough of the playbook since the Browns took forever to sign him.

You are entitled to as much tinfoil as you want. Which doesn’t make your position true, it makes it a belief and that’s fine for some things but not others.
As for RFK, Jr.? He is a brain damaged idiot. Eating better? Great idea. Michelle Obama suggests it and the Reich Wing goes apeshit. RFK, Jr., plans one of the larger intrusions into the sacrosanct, holy of holies (non-existent) free market and everything is groovy.
The wholesale destruction Kennedy has created is psychotic. His old man should have worn a raincoat or pulled out.

Re: Haslam Brook Park Stadium Proposal
FATE
09/10/25 02:52 PM
That's by far the richest ownership group in the history of the NFL. Jimmy got Pilot money, not Wal-Mart money. But yeah, that won't change the narrative. There's always some tricky math involved, here's the trade-off... Tax Abatements and Subsidies
While the Walton-Penner group has pledged to privately fund stadium construction and land purchase, the City of Denver could provide indirect support via infrastructure improvements and TIF.
TIF works by diverting some or all of the future increased property taxes generated by the new stadium and surrounding development to pay for development costs, rather than into general city funds.
This means that, although residents are told "zero taxpayer dollars" will build the stadium, part of the new tax revenue generated by the development could be redirected back to the project, benefiting the Broncos' ownership rather than supporting city services

Re: Joe Flacco Named the Starter

I think you have it backwards in this offense. The run game is supposed to be the one that opens things up for the long ball. If we can't establish the run, then dink and dunk it must be.

I didn’t think Stefanski handcuffed Flacco much at all. If anything, I thought he gave him too much…but the run game wasn’t really getting much. We have to figure out the run. We can't have Flacco throwing it 50 times a game. Judkins might help obviously
