    Well, I can think of one more way the Packers can disappoint me tomorrow.

    So much worse to expect to get destroyed but dominate the first half and then manage to give it away.
  3. GAME05
    Another season, another collapse.

    I hope they didn't even consider Trey Young. Giannis himself even noted the team is better when he's a PG. They need offensive rebounds, rebounds in general and just a couple workhorses to do all the dirty work, not another Damien Lillard type to chuck up more shots. >If I was the GM here is my proposal to Giannis on how I would attempt to fix this team Yeah, unfortunately the only real turnaround if Giannis stays isn't finding that one special FA to magically change everything, but two or three years of just crashing the team. Lotta those traded picks are Top-4 protected, aren't they?

    The Falcons just hired Matt Ryan as team president with the special role of leading the search for a new HC and GM. The latest gossip is that Ryan has some slight ties to LaFleur and was hired in no small part to try and pry MLF away from the Packers if we lose to the Bears tonight. Granted, rumors are worthless.

    I'd managed to get out of the 7am shift to stay on 8am. Just an hour but it makes a big difference to me, as I can get eight hours of sleep but still feel awful all day from getting up extra-early. But boss now implementing mandatory office hours and believes that if I can get out of 7am shift, a different co-worker can demand not to be put on office hours at all. So I'm about to be put back on 7am. I really really really hate 7am. 7am vs. 8am also doesn't effect our operations whatsoever. I don't see how the two things are at all related.

    They're putting in fiber optic lines near me. Don't know if they'll eventually get to my house or not, though. It's very little to be optimistic about, but my internet speed stinks and it would be awesome if that could change.

    Thanks. I think when it was $100 I kinda forgot about it. But $15/mo suddenly seems like a lot. Google is saying free shipping for non-Prime people if the product says "free shipping" and that it has to be fulfilled by Amazon. My co-worker says she'll get stuff from Amazon the next day, but I guess Amazon treats my little area as if I'm AKCheesehead and it takes 7-10 days, regardless.

    I'd take the Bears if it's a pick'em as well as the under, though I was only ever a break-even sports gambler. Does Twitch show the video of the game or is it more like the Tom Grossi stream where he calls the game but you don't see anything? And Amazon Prime is $15/mo??? I really should check what I'm paying for that. I only have it for two-day shipping (which still takes 7-10 days) and I thought you got free two-day as long as you ordered more than $35 of stuff at once, which is easy enough to do.

    What if Tune gets hurt? Does Bo Melton play QB, too?
  11. GAME05
    Maybe that'd be for the best. Some way to divide the kids who want to get an education and maybe play some football, too, and the ones who just want to play football. CBS had an article up the other day about how much each position cost to buy a player from the portal. "Oh, if you want a good offensive lineman, that'll cost you $600,000" said so casually by the agents.
  12. GAME05
    It does seem like winning in the playoffs has a lot more to do with coach preparation and proper strategy than merely having the better group of players. Maybe Ben Johnson is that kind of coach.
  13. GAME05
    Dog-off-leash people are far and away the worst people to deal with.

    Forgot to watch the game on Saturday because it was Saturday. Having to keep account of what day they play feels like a chore. It's sad we're already in offseason mode. You're probably right about Willis being a backup yet. If teams thought he were more, he'd probably have been traded last offseason. And a one-year deal makes a lot of sense for him. Land at the best offense he can get and maybe he gets middling-starter money the following year. If the Packers cut Gary it seems they've got no real replacement. Wouldn't it end up being a decision to cut Gary and try to re-sign Enegbare, or just keep Gary for another year? And in that case wouldn't it be way cheaper to just keep Gary? I don't get the impression they're eager to give LVN a lot of snaps. Maybe a little out of the box but would McKinney be a trade candidate in the offseason? His replacement is already here. Maybe a good way to shore up CB or OL? But would teams really have an interest in giving up much for a safety?
  15. GAME05
    He makes sense for a lot of teams. Shallow QB class out there, too. Plus Daniel Jones only increased the market for second-chance QBs. Add in the newer strategy of "Let's first build the team, then get a QB" and I suspect Willis can find a team where he gets 2-3 seasons to start as a bridge or I guess that tiny chance he turns out to be Sam Darnold. Willis' deep ball ability makes sense for the Bengals, too, if they trade Burrow. But he'll be competing with Kyler Murray, who I presume will get cut and not traded (with a bigger cap hit than even Russel Wilson). And I think Carolina has to decide on Bryce Young's 5th year option this offseason, too.
  16. GAME05
    From what I hear, they don't focus much on it. Your tiny schools still will, but the bigger schools will focus most of their efforts on transfer-pool scouting and poaching players from those smaller schools. High school is like your AA league and the Middle Tennessee States of the world the AAA. You know, kinda like the Brewers are the AAA team of the Dodgers and the Yankees.
  17. GAME05
    Packers have an uncanny ability to never really be better than any team they play.
  18. GAME05
    Holmgren, too. The new president doesn't change this, it's established Packers philosophy and not unique to the team. Go until it's painfully obvious. Ideally your GM has the security to make long-term moves instead of just win-now ones, and it's a desirable place for top HC candidates when you finally do have an opening. Ben Johnson didn't go to the Jets for good reason and it wasn't the quarterback. Maybe I'm wrong, but my guess is MlF gets his extension and sees more than just one more year. Granted, I was typing "I think Daboll stays" right as he was walking out the door, too. No reason 9 or 10 wins is some automatic job security. That's kinda baseline for the talent the team has had most of the season. There's "make bad teams good" coaches and there's "Win the big game" coaches, and MlF is in that first camp. Not a bad coach in the slightest, but a bad coach for this particular team.

    The Giannis "will he or won't he" drama is quickly feeling like late-career Brett Favre. At some point I'll start hoping he gets traded just to be over it. Nor can any team play Finals-or-burst every season for 15 years without eventually losing all your draft picks and trading away every ounce of depth you have....oh wait. I would think the offseason would be a better time to finally bite the bullet with more teams seemingly in contention, draft orders getting flushed out and teams probably better able to navigate the luxury tax. Agreed it wouldn't be a worry about being lowballed. Not like other teams are unaware of what's going on, nor do you lowball for a clearcut HOF player still in his prime. Sadly the best trade for the Bucks would be to try and get some of their picks back. Interesting the "tear it all down" strategy isn't some sure thing. OKC does it and they get maybe the best single-season team to have ever played. Utah does it and they're 10-16. But hopefully you all hid some nuts away because we're bound for a loooooong dry spell.
  20. GAME05
    Yeah, you have to say it as if you have a mouthful of food.
  21. GAME05
    Hafley is probably a HC somewhere next year. Do you boot MLF just for the sake of promoting Hafley and being able to keep him?
  22. GAME05
    I got Hulu mostly to finally see the last couple seasons of What We Do In The Shadows. The last season probably didn't need to happen but the movie and the show were both great. Really terrific concept: Well what do vampires do when they're not killing people but just hanging out? Guess I'll see if Hulu carries DMV or just continue with the ___That Built America series.

    Great recommendation. I'm now addicted to this guy's channel. It's great. I love learning the most efficient/effective way of cleaning stuff. I've since picked up one of those drill brushes to do the shower with (haven't tried it out yet) and may also try to clean my oven for the first time. Plus he doesn't really use bleach much at all, and that stuff makes me nervous now that I've seen how little of it you need to ruin clothes.

    Hoping for a little rally with this QE (probably) starting soon, but am probably out shortly after that and will just have to eat my losses. This whole cycle has been just awful.
  25. GAME05
    And wasn't Gary double-teamed about 22% of the time last year? Safe to figure he's not this year, so "as good as last year" doesn't cut it.
