Is H Diallo turning into something? He has the opportunity and minutes right now... If so: 1) What is he turning into exactly? 2) When do we trade Josh Jackson.? Err... how soon can we get him out of Detroit? That's what I meant... 3) For that matter, same with Cory Joseph? I know we get nothing for either one of those guys... just asking for a friend...

Nobody thinks he's the QB of the future. Find a quote ANYWHERE that says he's the QB of the future. The only quotes you will find, and I'm ready to guarantee this, is that he can "hold the fort" for the next year or two until we find our QB of the future, or similar. "He's a stopgap", "He can hold the fort for another year or two", "We can wait until 2023 to draft a QB since this year's class sucks and Goff can get us by until then...". Find me something different than the above. I don't think you can.

I prefer Kansas City's method of building a team and then drafting Patrick Mahomes rather than the... Cleveland Browns method of drafting: 2005, 3-67 Charlie Frye 2007, 1-22 Brady Quinn 2010, 3-85 Colt McCoy 2012, 1-22 Brandon Weeden 2014, 1-22 Johnny Manziel 2017, 2-52 DeShone Kizer 2018, 1-1 Baker Mayfield I have a better idea: Let's pick the CORRECT QB rather than taking a QB just for the fuck of it.

What he said...

I don't think they see him as such. Just guessing... but I think everyone sees him as a stopgap, and it's not that difficult to see. I think that includes the front office & coaching staff too.

I'd put CB behind: QB WR1 WR2 Pass-Rusher (could be DE or LB'er) Linebacker (2 of them) Safety TE2

Also, Melifonwu. I'm fine with giving the CB's a year before drafting them again to see what shakes out... So many needs in 2022 anyways that CB could easily be an afterthought...

Which is why I'm loading up in this asset class...

Not just the markets are up but, also... Dividends are way, way up almost all across the board...

That'll slow inflation, the economy, and the market down...

I'm an atheist. What should I swear on? I know! How about: Richard Dawkins - The God Delusion?

You're talking about Trump again, where his Tax Cuts ran $1 TRILLION annual DEFICITS his 4 years in office and he added $9 TRILLION TOTAL to U.S Debt? Another Republican as president and this country will have another GREAT RECESSION like the one Bush caused. The usual: Republicans FUCK UP the economy and the Democrats FIX the REPUBLICANS BROKEN Economies... Rinse. Repeat.

Yeah... multiple watches on the horizon... And it's the first "real" look at multi-verse issues which... With the prior two Spiderman series... ended up just being really cool to see, especially the banter, which was hilarious.

I'll get the Blu-Ray when it's cheap and watch it and... Just consider it an extension of the Matrix story... it doesn't even have to be all that related... In accounting we call that "completeness" which is an important aspect so... that's what I'm going with.

Like in Europe.

Wasn't it Archie that had a serious issue with market valuations and his portfolio in relationship to his support, or not, of the current president? Archie, you must be LOVING President Biden by now, right?!?! Gonna vote DEM in 2022 since they're Doing So Well Leading This Country... Right? Highest Stock Market Ever... Unemployment at 4.2% and dropping... Woo Hoo!!!

If Covid affected and killed lots and lots of kids... the anti-vax attitudes flying around in this country would do an immediate 180 degrees turn. That's part of the "doesn't affect me" and "I want my freedoms" hypocrisy.

That wasn't a message to fox, it was a message to everyone else: "If you run into a Lying POS don't forget about the IGNORE option".

Nope... didn't hold... game postponed...

I feel safer having you on IGNORE. That's my freedom of choice. And it increases my mental/ emotional/ physical health exponentially.

My point is a whole lot more Republicans should have stood up and denounced Trump's stream of lies, and at the time of them, not Johnny-come-lately like Rice... And a whole lot more Republicans should have voted to impeach, not just Rice. He should have been impeached after inciting an insurrection against the United States of America. Republican gutlessness at its absolute worst. But... Definitely me... I would have called him out on his lies loudly and clearly, and demanded that he be impeached and imprisoned for sedition, incitement, and overall deuchebaggery. Just in case I wasn't very clear on that before now... 😉

They were raining 3-pointers (didn't watch, just perusing the box score) and hitting them at a 45% rate. Unsustainable... but if this team could improve on those 3-pointers, as a team... It will be a critical component of future success. 3-pointers season-to-date a teamwide 31.3%. Finish the remaining games at a 36% rate and it changes (I don't want to say "everything" but...) almost everything? The Warriors are above 36%, not certain how many other teams are. That is probably a ridiculous ask for these Pistons... But... that's my ask.

Found another gem too:

Let's see if this schedule holds up...
