I enjoy watching these type of shows, btw I have all 20 episodes of Ancient Aliens recorded. One of my favorite theorists is Erich von Däniken, The "father of the ancient astronaut theory". Author of Chariots of the Gods.

That is an awesome book, read it in 3 days.

This theory is more plausible than the various holy books, IMHO...

There is a fine line though... If you get too silly with it, you'll become a Scientologist... If you keep a level head, I believe there is some truth in the ancient astronaut theory...

Eh I don't think the ONLY reason they would come is to exterminate us. If through some chance we developed the technology to get to another planet and that planet had life that WE would exterminate the life on that planet.

For all we know if alien visitors came to Earth they could be just as excited about finding alien life as we are. Hopefully as technology grows and advances cultures (our and alien) will see that there's no real upside in violence.

I think that there are other intelligent beings in the universe. It is hard to say that "it isnt possible" when life in the universe has already happened here on Earth, there is no reason to beleive that it cant happen elsewhere. The right conditions for life are probably pretty hard to come by, but the universe is a big place, and I think it is fair to say that out of the trillions of stars in the universe, there has to be more than one place with perfect conditions.

But, unless Einstein was wrong, it would take thousands of years to travel here, unless they happen to have come from one of the very closest stars in our own galaxy.

If an alien race were to travel hundreds or thousands of years just to get here, I dont think it would just be a quick hello, and then back home. They would probably want to exterminate us, and colonize the earth for themselves after spending that much time and effort just to get here, so that being said, i really doubt that there have ever been any visitors to our planet.

I acually think that although there probably is life out there, intelligent beings are probably rare, and the nearest inhabited star systems are probably very far away. With probably only a handfull of stars in the galaxy that possibly have intelligent life, out of hundreds of billions, the nearest E.T.s are probably way too far away to ever get here.

OK, that was my super-nerd post for the month...haha!

What if the planet that the travelers are coming from spins very slowly?

Perhaps a thousand years in our time is a couple of days in theirs.

there are other intelligent beings in our own galaxy, living as close as our own moon sometimes...

don't ask me how I know because I can't tell you...

it is also entirely possible to travel anywhere in the universe in the blink of an eye... it is just that we humans haven't figured out how yet...

It could be that we are the alien race that you are referring to! Maybe the dinosaurs were exterminated by us (the aliens) so we could live here!! :eek:

      Current Draft Position & Potential Prospects

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Starting to see more prospect discussion and figured to drop in a few lines: DRAFT POSITION The short: We currently stand at #5 and I think this is about where we land.  We are 1 game separated from 1OA (currently JAX) all the way back to pick 11 (currently CHI). https://www.tankathon.com/nfl My Reasoning:   JAX is simply a wildcard - I think their remaining schedule is all winnable, but it's a faltering situation. NYG could very well lose out, tough schedule, terrible team.  They would still be ahead even if we lose out and they win 1 remaining.  They seem like the highly likely Cam Ward destination/Can't see Deion supporting his long time nemesis.     NE is playing AZ, BUF (twice) and LAC to close out the year.  If we both lose out, they're still ahead of us.  Hunter is an easy pick here.   LVR have some winnable games, also play JAX week 16.  You never know what Raiders team you're getting weekly, but Shedeur makes too much sense for them - question is - where do they land?   CLE has a BRUTAL stretch coming up and could easily lose out, moving ahead of us.     With this in mind, I think highest pick here for us is #3 unless Drake Maye or Drew Lock pull off some stunners.  Lowest pick is in that #10/11 range.  If we get just 1+ win (which seems likely), I think we end up at #5.  So, okay, there's my reasoning.     MINI-BIG BOARD And now the big board talent - more/less consensus from what I'm seeing (minus QBs who's value pushes them up): 1. Travis Hunter DB/WR Colorado 2. Will Johnson DB Michigan 3. Tetairoa McMillan WR Arizona 4. Ashton Jeanty RB Boise State (talent is this high, but doubt he goes top-5 in the current climate) After this...it's really hard to sort bc they all start to have warts, the EDGE talent is not good, but names you'll see: Shedeur Sanders QB Colorado Cam Ward QB Miami Mason Graham DT Michigan Malaki Starks DB UGA Abdul Carter OLB PSU   - Where we benefit: Ward & Shedeur will be going to QB needy spots and early. This brings Hunter, McMillan, & Johnson into contention.  With that being said, as mentioned, New England seems a likely landing spot for Travis Hunter.  So long story short: Johnson DB v. McMillan WR v. Graham DT is the debate I foresee having as things escalate.  The EDGE class is simply not worthy in the top-5 (I need a hard sell on those guys) and don't really see the value elsewhere unless we really like Starks.   Many are already talking McMillan and I think it makes a lot of sense. Seems like a situation where staying in that top-5 helps. So maybe yesterday was a blessing in disguise.   If we drop much further, there may be a prospect commonly ranked in the 20s right now that rises into consideration with how this draft class is muddled.  That top-4 is clear and it's just a big field of late 1st/early 2nd rounders IMO.  Put Bowers, heck Amarius Mims in this draft class, they're both going top-5.

      What Exactly Caused Bryces Turnaround?

      By jb2288 · Posted

      Nobody could have succeeded last year, it was an awful offensive roster with even worse coaching I've been screaming that for a year. Watch some of the film of last year playcalling vs this years, it's an insane difference.  but to directly answer your question, I think last year not only slowed Bryce's improvement but made him regress. My opinion is he was worse this year Game 1 at Saints than he would have been if he just took a year off in 2023 from football. The last staff absolutely ruined him. I wrote him off, said after the first play of the Saint's game when he threw the int he was done and no coming back. Sitting seemed to have let him get back to being the dude he was coming out of Alabama, and what we are seeing now I believe is what the 1st overall pick looks like 5 games into their rookie year.

      What Exactly Caused Bryces Turnaround?

      It's impossible to tell without being in the building but the biggest thing for me is confidence in himself, which happened once he finally had confidence in the offensive line which for some reason didn't happen until after his benching. Him being benched was his first football failure of his football life, he's been successful at every level since high school on incredibly talented teams. Biggest difference I've seen with him is staying in the pocket and also keeping his eyes up. He's legitimately eating big hits on the chin like a pro and still delivering darts. He's suddenly unshakeable it's great to see. I thought he always flashed some good throws with some anticipation so that's been there, with his confidence back his accuracy also returned to form. He still has to work on balls to the boundary but those are notoriously difficult.  tl;dr: confidence.
