  1. Trump can no longer handle 4 syllable words? HAHAHAHAHA!!! https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-apparently-having-trouble-pronouncing-230259903.html Trump Is Apparently Having Trouble Pronouncing 4-Syllable Words David Moye Wed, May 1, 2024 at 7:02 PM EDT
  2. PS: Also... that's obviously one of the things where Holmes was so excited to draft him as a RB.... I think he will be a MAJOR special teams guy this year... And will only see a few scraps here and there as an actual RB. Maybe a few more snaps at WR. I think in year two or three... just guessing... he'll be all over the place: Special teams, RB, WR, Safety...
  3. He was a RB in high school... So... I guess it's like riding a bike? 😁😉
  4. I think this is the crux of the matter, right here.
  5. That... And game plans change week-to-week based on matchups... and even in-game as well. I would rather not go into the season with "Khalif Raymond is our #3 receiver? AWESOME!" And would rather go into the season with "Tyler Boyd is our #3 receiver? (or DJ Chark) I feel MUCH better now. Thank you very much."
  6. I created a laugh off the idea but... I'm. Not. Actually. Laughing. Just decided to add a little levity...
  7. I think the NFL formula for sustainability at a very high level is a great GM who can identify NFL talent in later rounds. That's the pipeline to move a backup into a starter position without losing talent level and... not succumbing to Salary Cap Hell. Also, depth players on a high level team are critical so, even if a later round guy never becomes a starter and is nothing more than a depth guy... that ALSO plays a role in the above... This is the most encouraging thing I see in Holmes, and why he was hired: The ability to identify NFL talent in any round. Whether that's a depth guy, special teamer, or sneaky future starter... We'll see how good he is at this, or not, over the longer term 4-5-6+ years...
  8. Florida's after 6-week ban on abortion is now official law in the state as of today.
  9. I think he expects a "popular uprising" by his supporters upon the theatrics of his "pretend" tough guy incarceration. That would lead to an insurrection demanding he become King again, errr, President that is... Whereby he could ride on the shoulders of his white trash fascist troops, errr, freedom fighters... to his throne.
  10. You could almost put anybody out there at this point (not really... just sayin') but I think Hinch should turn to Wentz and have him go 2 innings...
  11. Homer for Greene. Ya' know... I would just love to see Greene put this team on his back, offensively, and go on a 1.200+ OPS tear for about 6 weeks or so... I thought he might have been a guy who could do that...
  12. I think I'm going to have to nickname this year's version of the Tigers... The Kardiac Kitties.
  13. I don't think that's a problem for Ben Johnson to find ways to move him around, inside or outside, and get him open... And he's an easy enough target that I'm pretty certain Goff could find him without any issues... Boyd's career catch % is 68.1% I'm going to guess that the Lions could find a way to work with that.
  14. https://www.yahoo.com/news/us-drug-control-agency-move-170458916.html US poised to ease restrictions on marijuana in historic shift, but it'll remain controlled substance ZEKE MILLER, JOSHUA GOODMAN, JIM MUSTIAN and LINDSAY WHITEHURST Updated Tue, April 30, 2024 at 7:51 PM EDT
  15. I thought I saw where he was asking for $9 mill per... I don't think that's too much on an annual basis... But I didn't see what kind of term he was looking for. 2 or 3 years I could say yes, more than that might be too much to commit to... We'll see when it gets closer to Training Camp if that changes... If it ends up a 1-year I think that's a bargain. It'd be a "culture fit" 1-year, IMO, and if he fits into our "Lions Locker room culture" and Ben Johnson/ Jared Goff have him on the right page on the field... I'd be happy to go back to that 2 or 3 years deal...
  16. Can we chain that ankle bracelet (with TFG in it of course...) To a Jet Airliner...? Just to see what happens? Steve Miller would approve this message.
  17. I am INFAMOUSLY defensive. I resemble that remark. But NOT the avatar... sorry... but... no. Just, no.
