Anyone see the local news tonight?

Charlotte and Minneapolis are in the running for the 2012 DNC Presidential Conference. They showed the DNC committee visiting Minneapolis today. They were walking into the convention center with a huge sign that read:

"Minnesota, America's Firsts Line of Defense."

What? Against who? Those crazy Canucks? If Canada is going to invade the US,

there are more people across the river from Detriot (Would we really care if they invaded Detriot?) or even more Canadians live across the border from New York state.

I lived in Minnesota for 5 & 1/2 years, right before I moved to Charlotte. About the only thing coming across the Minnesota/Canada border was a coyote or 2.

I can see those crazy Canucks now. "Give us all your beer and no one gets hurt. Eh!"

Yeah I guess they're thinking back to the cold war days. Maybe we have a lot of B-52's and ICBM's over there.

I really hope Charlotte gets it. Mo' Money is always a good thing. Since I live in the Suburbs I don't have to deal with the horrible traffic, long lines at your favorite eatery, and all the yahoos asking for directions.

I always get nervous about the President coming to town though. I keep thinking about the Sum of All Fears.

I'm not sure that's a good thing to have a prominent Africa-American leader come to the South either. It didn't work out too good for Rev King Jr in 1968! Hopefully the South has progresed since then. But Charlotte always appreciates having 1000's of partying drunks come to town. They get it twice a year for the 600 & the Fall 500!

      Bears fire Matt Eberfus

      His o loaded with swift, dj, Keenan and Rome was inconsistent at best. The d was bad. And the game management was atrocious and lost them games.  He was terrible and made the team worse. I wish they kept him

      That is my point.  I think teams make a huge mistake when they pay their decent to average QBs top QB money because they feel that they have to match the market or lose their investment--There is no way, for example, that Tua or Prescott or Murray should all be making more than Mahomes--I mean, Dak makes $15m per season more than Mahomes. People say, "Well, when its his turn...." But that is not how it should be--so my point was that Bryce can be doing mediocre to good enough in 2 years, but the way it is going, you have to pay him at the starting QB rate--currently $60m.  So even if you think he will continue to improve, at $60 m, he would eliminate any chance for a ring---so my view is, if he is not elite, you cut him.  So you draft QBs now and see what you can make of them.

      With two 4ths and three 5ths I’m hoping we can kill it on adding depth. Take a gamble with the two 7ths.  First 3 picks id love to address the defense. I expect Tuttle, Robinson, and Jewell to all be on the 2025 roster but not after that. Be a good time to add depth and let them develop a year.
