  1. Yeah, I guess their stats aren't so dissimilar. Sneed only had 2INTs to go along with 78 tackles. Newsome could have gotten another 10-12 tackles had injury not kept him out 4 games. So in the end, they would have been statistically close to one another. Newsome had and almost 15 point higher PFF grade than Sutton too. So upon further review, I take back what I said earlier about Newsome and I guess I'd be alright with the Lions acquiring him.
  2. Another potential Lion off the market in Denico Autry.
  3. Is Newsome a guy who is significantly better than Cam Sutton and a CB1 type of player? He's not on PFFs top 32 list either. So they have 32 other starters ranked ahead of him. Maybe I am getting too hung up on this idea of who is and isn't CB1 material and having two good players back there at CB versus a true, #1 lockdown guy is suffice.
  4. Grant Newsome had a 69.7 PFF grade, 49 tackles, 2INTs in 13 games started last year. While I think Newsome is a nice player, he seems like yet another CB2 type of guy. We have two CB2s on our roster already, we don't need to add another one IMO.
  5. I think given the Guard market we are going to be drafting one in the first or second round.
  6. Several Lions potential targets off the board now with Huff, Van Ginkel and Wilkens gone. I hope we're in the market for Hunter and Fuller.
  7. WOW, I didn't even recall this story being a thing. Apparently Armstead accused Skipper of dropping the N-bomb in games. Just looking this up, I don't see any player corroborating what Armstead said about Skipper. It also looks like Armstead has resorted to calling people a f*g himself on Twitter.
  8. I wonder if we would be in on Arik Armstead? He is still a productive player at 30 years old. I could see a 1-2 year deal for Armstead.
  9. That line at the beginning where he talks about cutting entitlements should be in ad after ad. The Republicans want to cut your Social Security and Medicare seems a very effective argument for Democrats.
  10. Th moral majority of America here folks.
  11. I'd rather have to face Russ twice a year than Kirk Cousins as the Vikings starter. Russ looks baked and done.
  12. I would guess the third year is either a team option or a voidable year on the contract.
  13. We can't be Arizona so my confidence in putting away Buffalo is fading. After all the numbers and stats I parsed through the other week, it really amazes me how big of a collapse this team has had without Larkin. They look like a bottom 5 team without him and here I thought they had all this scoring depth on the team.
  14. I guess Chris Jones won't be a Lion.
  15. Maybe Biden can walk out in handcuffs with three pillows under his shirt and a spray on tan to imitate him. What a sick, heartless ****ing human being and if you vote for him you're a sick, heartless **** too.
  16. I wanted Patrick Peterson so bad back in the 2011 draft. But I think the guy is washed now.
  17. I don't agree with the Republican Border Bill that they were trying to pass on policy. However, I thought Biden really had a great moment sticking it to the Republicans saying "that's amazing you all don't even agree with your own bill." This was one of Biden's best and most effective jabs last night.
  18. 4-2 now, I'd say this one is over. These next two weeks workout Larkin are really going to send us tumbling down the standings I fear.
  19. It's one report, about them making a phone call, to inquire about the price. They're doing their due diligence which I very much like. It doesn't mean they'll pay whatever price is asked in a trade, nor does it even mean they've done anything serious beyond inquiring about Snead.
  20. That is fantastic to hear they are potentially in the market for a player of Snead's caliber.
  21. Nothing, I think it is a risk-free move for Florida with Ottawa picking up 50% of the salary. And them really only giving up 4th, or 3rd round picks at worst if they make a Cup, is nothing to them. I think this is a low-risk, high reward move for Florida.
  22. So we should recriminalize drugs and continue having the highest incarceration rate in the industrialized first world? The Nixonian approach to treating drugs as a crime problem does not work. Whether you are dealing with coke, crack rock, fentanyl, heroin, lsd, marijuana/cannabis, meth. We've tried the other way, criminalizing drugs and locking everyone up, for decades in this country. That didn't work. Frankly, if people want to do drugs, that is their choice and they should not be put into prison for making that choice. What we should do, in line with decriminalization, is adequately tax the wealthy, upper middle class, and big corporations to pay for a universal system of healthcare. Through that, we can pay for and send people to mandated drug treatment, rehab, job training, and life skills programs. Furthermore, if you want to get drugs off the streets and out of the hands of violent gangs then not only should you decriminalize the, but let them be sold in retail stores the same way beer and now cannabis is. I'd rather have it sold from licensed and regulated vendors than sold on the streets near children, schools, and neighborhoods.
  23. I disagree here and think most on the right and the Republican Party itself are too far gone. You aren't going to go from believing now that vaccines have built in 5G microchips, Hillary Clinton molested children in a pizza parlor, immigrants are vermin, and that LGBTQ+ people are a moral threat to society to not believing this by 2028. All these people will still hold all those beliefs four years from now and will support candidates who share those beliefs. The Republican Party is gone and it isn't coming back. After Donald Trump in 2028 it will potentially be Don Jr., Eric, or an adjacent MAGA person leading the way in the party. The days on the Gipper, George H.W. Bush, **** Cheney, Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, and company are over and are not returning. This is now firmly the party of MAGA-minded individuals like the Trump family, Steve Bannon, Ben Shapiro, Nick Fuentes, MTG, Matt Gaetz, Loren Bobert, Josh Hawley, and the like.
  24. Wow, Florida gave up nothing of significance to get Tarasenko. And the fact that they got Ottawa to retain 50% of the salary is huge.
