This post sucks. Hot garbage would be a better read.

The amount of 30 year mortgages that go full term is minuscule. People either sell the house or refi first.

Median home price in 2000: $163k Median home price in 2025: $410k

Are you Lloyd and Trollaholic is Harry or is it the other way around?

“He’s a little chase-prone for my liking” Did this analyst watch any MLB ball this season? Half the league has become a little chase prone. It’s almost more of a plus than a criticism and makes me think that maybe Anderson really is ready for the show.

Wow, I didn’t think you cared about pedos. I actually thought that you liked them based on all of the time you’ve spent protecting them.

This is an article on the Eagles approach to the deadline. These teams are very similar in both talent and current goals. The approach taken at the deadline by their GM was very different. Definitely worth a read to understand the thinking behind a team that took another route than Brad. It also goes into the tactic of being able to acquire players without actually losing any draft capital. Very shrewd way of working the deadline. https://www.forbes.com/sites/howardmegdal/2025/11/06/how-philadelphia-eagles-howie-roseman-won-the-nfl-trade-deadline/

Not a single person in this thread has ever suggested the Lions trade for Cam Robinson.

I really hope this young roster is ready for the all out intensity of something as important as The NBA CUP!!! In addition to the money, the winning team this year gets to have their least favorite beat writer killed.

I disagree with pretty much all of this but that’s ok. It’s your opinion and it’s not wrong but a different way of looking at the same thing. I don’t for one second question Brad’s desire to win and to win now. I have a little different opinion on his decision to roll with what they have as the choice to improve. I don’t think it’s improving. Miles Frazier has not done anything since being drafted. The 3 day Rookie minicamp is all that he’s done. He’s a green as they come. I’m not sure you can count on him to even be on an active gameday 48, much less actually play. That seems like a massive reach. We will see. As I said earlier, it’s very possible they don’t need to improve and what they have is good enough. I think it could be, assuming nobody else gets injured on OL or god forbid #97 is unable to go for any period of time. We will see. Maybe it’s because of the market but he’s left the team without any safety nets and they are very vulnerable at a few key positions. It may turn out to be a calculated risk that turns out perfectly but end of the day it’s his call and his ass on the line. We will see.

I’m not blaming Holmes for not making a move but I don’t think he deserves any praise for not making any. He has his reasons and they very well may be justified but it’s a bottom line job, and the bottom line is that he chose to not improve this team.

Teams rarely made trades during the season. It’s only a recent phenomena where a bevy of trades happen in year. I wouldn’t have traded a first for any interior lineman. Maybe not as much as most of the league, first round picks still have lots of value for the Lions. You don’t just give them away for a player that’s worth a 3rd or 4th. Thats not smart business for the future.

My prediction is the Mets making an offer that Scott can’t refuse this winter. They probably will bicker forever about Nolan McLean. Scott will stand firm. The Mets will stand firm and eventually counter with way more than they should to keep McLean out of it. Mets won’t treat this as a rental deal. Steve Cohen would make the deal knowing that he’ll pay whatever Boras wants in FA. Cohen’s ego is so big that he can’t even imagine losing Skubal in a money deal. He may even make an offer so over the top before FA that Boras has no choice but to sign it and not take Skub to market.

It’s week 10. Not week 17. A few of those teams with question marks will likely have solved them and be playing at a contender level. A few of them will not and will stumble in and then out of the playoffs. Depth on both lines was a lingering problem last year and eventually played a big part in the Lions elimination. They haven’t really solved this problem and I hope it doesn’t bite them again.

All those teams are out of it and sold other players. Not a stretch to assume a good offer gets it done. None of these guys were worth a late first but we had other picks that could’ve got it done. I do think there’s some credence to the point that bad teams are a little less likely to weaken their lines in an attempt to protect their young QB’s.
