  1. On the other had, the Lions could have won at the end of the season like they did and drafted Cam Jordan instead of Fairley and had an even better player than Peterson. Imagine a defensive line of Suh-Jordan-Avril.
  2. Elon doesn't actually say the reporting is inaccurate.
  3. I'm not sure many people thought drafting Mike Williams was a good idea at the time. I seem to recall the Lions being widely panned for that move.
  4. It's not like their offense doesn't have needs. They currently have only one proven receiver. They have a RB that can never play a full season. They do have a good offensive line and a Pro Bowl QB but the offense certainly has needs.
  5. I liked McCarver earlier in his career but he seemed to lose it later in his career.
  6. Trey Lance is another workout warrior who got way over drafted.
  7. I also haven't heard anyone mention the Colts getting compensation for the Lions hiring Montgomery even though his title with the Lions is an upgrade over the Colts. If they aren't getting comp for Montgomery, the Lions certainly aren't for Staley.
  8. I take it as being a lateral move with the HC or GM. Take Brad Holmes for example. Holmes being the minority employee and the executive of the employer club (Lions) decides to leave the Lions for say the Titans and is hired into the same position. The spirit of he rule is to promote minority candidates so Ray Agnew accepting the Titans GM position would warrant compensation. Another example would be if say Pittsburgh allows Tomlin to seek a different head coaching position and he accepts a job from Denver. That was a lateral move so no compensation. That's how I interpret it. I'm not sure there is an example of a minority head coach leaving one position for the same position with another team. I also do think this would apply to Staley only if he were given a head coaching job.
  9. He's not a woman who committed a violent crime but I digress. The difference between Tesla and Theranos is you can still buy a Tesla. The product does exist where the Theranos machine never existed. Musk sells vaporware like FSD, Roadster, trips to Mars etc but you can still buy a Tesla. Musk is really bilking the consumer and not as much the investor like Holmes.
  10. This is why I quit watching McAfee's show. He's basically Rodger's PR guy. Rodgers is a snowflake and knows McAfee will never challenge him. Rodgers has gone on his show before and spewed nonsense and conspiracy theories.
  11. I was thinking the Bears should trade Fields and the #1 pick for additional picks this year and next year and go all in for Caleb Williams. Knowing the Bears they'll try to sign Derek Carr.
  12. My Twitter feed is bombarded with Bears fans and they are going to have a meltdown. They think Fields is the best QB in the division already.
  13. I never got much into looking into Musk himself, but when I was looking into buying a Tesla I was like I just want an EV, not join a cult. I ended up buying a Ford Mach E. The Ford forums were what you expect. People who like their Mach E, people who have had issues with them and how Ford responded. Nobody talked about the stock price, nobody mentioned the CEO, or how Ford was going to save humanity. Ford also did not charge $10k for an option that is still not available 7 years later. BTW Ford's Blue Cruise is better than Autopilot. Autopilot is nothing more than adaptive cruise control and lane centering. It's dangerous and yet Elon continues to be able to sell it as autonomous.
  14. I do think his base was left but we're talking the extreme left like people who support people like Nina Turner. Tesla is literally a cult. I went on some forums and they talk about Elon Musk being the best thing to humanity and he is saving humanity. I am not being hyperbolic. Those are actual words from Tesla supporters. Another thing that was so odd was when people would bring up Tesla's abysmal build quality, it would always turn into a flex about their stock. They just keep believing the lie. They're convinced the Cybertruck is going to put Ford out of business even though the Cybertruck doesn't exist and keeps getting delayed until next year. Tesla's are just junk. They have the worst reliability rating, are poorly engineered, have massive body gaps, and colors don't even match and yet Tesla owners give him a pass. No way GM or Ford gets away with that. This was all before Elon Musk bought Twitter and showed his true self.
  15. I muted Elon a long time ago. When I was researching EVs to buy, I naturally started with Tesla and it only took 10 minutes to figure out Tesla is a fraud and Elon is a charlatan. He's basically the equivalent of Elizabeth Holmes.
