  1. The mens 100 meter was interesting. Incredibly close finish.
  2. You ask if anyone was watching. I just answered your question. A lot of people are watching. I watched a couple of events, mainly because the wife likes them
  3. 2024 Olympics Ratings Are Way Up: 5 Reasons Why (frontofficesports.com)
  4. Given how much money we spent on the oline, there should be improvement. If we get even adequate play out of center and left tackle, it should be fairly dramatic improvement.
  5. I don't necessarily agree with it, but the reality is that in the long run of the season, it won't make much of a difference. The reality is that he will get more repos in the first half of the first game than he would in the first and second preseason game.
  6. I didn't really say struggled for two years. I said struggled this year. He should start showing something at a minimum by next year. That being said, two of our own. Moose didn't do much his first or second year. 24 catches with an injury his first season and only 27 catches his second season even though he played 13 games. He exploded in his third season. Our fan base now would have labeled him a bust after the second season. And Steve Smith who was mostly a special teamer his first season (albeit a very good one), came on in his second season and exploded in the third (SB) season. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Kelvin Benjamin has the best rookie season of any receiver we have ever had and fell apart.
  7. Right now, the projected track has it moving up the middle of the state, although the heaviest rain might be on the eastern side. I know in the Triad the weather guessers are calling for about a 95% chance of rain on Friday.
  8. I have seen several pundits say that starters shouldn't play in preseason. Eventually, more teams may buy into it. IMO, if your starter is Patrick Mahomes, no point at all in playing him. But if its Bryce Young, well he probably should be playing.
  9. Why? If he struggles this year, but becomes a pro bowl all-star by season three, is anyone going to care that he struggled in year one?
  10. If Brooks doesn't becomes a good player by his second season, then he is worth the pick. If not, then he is probably not worth the pick. Same with Leggett.
  11. Not surprised. In fact, I hope they take their time and ensure he is 100% before he sees the field. IMO, his selection was always about what he might do for us next season and for a few years after that.
  12. That is true with probably 90% of players regardless of position. The number of them that look great their first year are exceedingly rare.
  13. There was a restaurant years ago that advertised boundless wings for a set price. They didn't last long.
  14. Given how much money we spent upgrading the offensive line, I would think that the oline should be significantly improved. And if it improves, so should the running game. And our receiver group should be improved, although showing that improvement depends a lot on Bryce.
  15. It doesn't matter what I would give him. I do think that unless he just looks awful, throwing a lot of picks with most completions being dumpoffs, the coach will give him the full season.
  16. I don't really care if we sign someone like him as a Camp Body, but a domestic abuse allegation is a little more problematic.
  17. We use facebook to communicate with distant family. I found something called social fixer which allows me to filter out political and religious nonsense.
  18. Brady (and fwiw, most great qb's) was at his best under pressure. He didn't get rattled, and was probably more accurate than earlier in the game. IMO, that is what separates the adequate guys from the all time greats. In that regard, he was a Superman. Same with Mahomes and Montana.
  19. Imo, it depends on how many kids you have. If two or less, I don't think Minivan vs SUV matters. Best to get the safest with an eye on price. 3 or more, and a Minivan might be best.
  20. I was responding to the individual who said a million wouldn't last very long.
  21. Also, having Dental insurance is NOT a "little perk".
  22. Those things that they don't cover, Medicare doesn't cover either. So I am not sure what your point is. Like I said, if you are saying the Medicare program itself needs to be overhauled, I might agree. But Medicare advantage is better than plain Medicare.
  23. I think this impacts a lot of people these days. What Is Money Dysmorphia and Who Does It Affect? | Bankrate
