  1. Did anyone like the Jaguars' draft? Seems crazy to give up your 1st next year which could very well be a Top-10 pick. They'd have still gotten a good player where they were. I get it for a QB, but extremely few WRs or CBs have ever been so game-changing to give up that much for. And it's not like Hunter will end up playing all that much of both positions.
  2. We're well beyond any believable "we can compete" excuse. Be the Greatest Buck with at least a two-year rebuild or move on to win a heck of a lot more games but bounce around the last half of your career. Bucks' brass are supposedly going to meet with Giannis in the coming few days.
  3. The fewer prime-time Packers games the better for me. I don't want to stay up super late to watch and if it's a Thursday game, most often I forget that they're even on and miss the game entirely.
  4. My brother had a tour guide in Rome when the Pope was speaking. The tour guide offered that or visit the Sistine Chapel. The brother chose the chapel and there was about nobody there. Apparently normally you're just pushed through the thing from the mass of people.
  5. When I was a little kid I had to go to a sleep doctor because I kept having a recurring nightmare. Still remember the dream, too. Had to stay up 24 hours which was absolute misery. I guess I don't go into the deepest phase of sleep which I think is all that came from the doctor visit.
  6. I haven't been to a commercial gym in a while. Is it overblown the number of e-girls there filming themselves working out in what's basically underwear, or is social media making it a bigger problem than it really is?
  7. I've been presuming the move to C meant he wouldn't be re-signed. I can't figure the Packers would pay a Center what would end up being Guard and fill-in Tackle money, nor would he accept Center money when he could get Guard money elsewhere.
  8. Cripes it's like I can't do anything right. Stuck at the house an extra 30 minutes for lunch because some propane workers were in my driveway blocking it, but I guess I was still being watched and get a sarcastic text asking if I'm gonna stay at home the rest of the day. Can't park right, can't send an email right, can't paint right..... edit: Just the incessant criticism. Today a maintenance guy said he had to pick his kid up early from daycare because they lost power. I said "You'd think a place with little kids would have a generator for backup." A nothing comment, maybe even a stupid one, but the reply was "Why don't you mind your own f'n business."
  9. I've had this same one. A little once/week nothing class on Wednesday that I just totally forgot I had until near the end of the semester. Do I just start showing up now that it's too late to matter? Will they forget about me, too?
  10. We should just eliminate Divisions and every NFC team plays the other NFC teams once per year. With a bye week there would only be one additional game to throw in either for a rivalry team or local AFC team. Far fewer issues with different strength-of-schedules that way plus no more sub-par teams making the playoffs due to being in a bad Division. Plus you add in what used to be a fun element of MLB where the SuperBowl teams are unfamiliar with each other, as well as the potential of differently evolving NFC and AFC playstyles.
  11. Heck, are they even a playoff team next year? Giannis will get quadruple-teamed.
  12. Thank you for that note. That's stuff I try to shy away from.
  13. No worries I didn't take it as anything negative and you're correct on both counts. Although if Sean Connery didn't actually mention Vilnius in the movie don't tell me as it's too late to change plans:) The brother wanted to do Estonia but I somehow made the more convincing argument.
  14. I keep thinking about how the Packers were a good running team last year yet were ranked 23rd in run blocking. And now we're going in with a healthy Morgan and a 2nd Rounder who had a terrific run-blocking grade. Jenkins at C can't hurt, either. Maybe it's a ho-hum thing but it feels like improving the run blocking to even middle of the pack could mean a significant improvement to the offense overall.
  15. I hate that they took out the smoking lounges. Sure they were gross but after 10+ hours on a plane and going through it all it'd sure be nice to have a touch of stress relief.
  16. Thank you, yes.
  17. My folks got back yesterday from a Mediterranean cruise. I hope you have a good time! The wildly different culture and distance from home have me crossing out SE Asia, but the boss is considering a city in the Philippines. I guess it's a popular tourist spot because it's in the mountains and way cooler than the normal temperatures. If money isn't what I was hoping I'm likely looking at back to Wisconsin, like Mazo or Black Earth near Madison. Could potentially pick up some work if I needed a couple hundred bucks more per month. And the brother is there so maybe that balances out the long winters.
  18. I guess once you get to Page 3 the threads get locked in order to get folks to create new threads. The brother and I are heading over to Gdansk, Poland and Vilnius, Lithuania in June. Should be fun. Was originally going to be an initial retirement-destination-exploration trip, and Poland has been a second-tier idea, but it's really more a vacation now unless crypto goes wild again. Weirdly the US is the most expensive, but the less money I have the more staying here makes sense. Lithuania not really on that list because it's pretty similar to Madison weather but without some of the extremes. Should be fun. We only picked Lithuania because we didn't want to use up so much time traveling any farther, and because Sean Connery's hometown in Crimson Tide was Vilnius and he made it sound so cool in the movie that I've always wanted to see it. Haven't seen the movie in forever, but that short little mention has always stuck to me. Sure it's the stupidest reason in the world to go anywhere, but so what?
  19. Was on an Andrew Klavan book called Beauty and Truth about references to God in classical literature. But I listen to his podcast a bunch and his theology has gotten really bad to the point of it being non-Christian, and that's really thrown me off the book. Lee Strobel did something similar lately, though his books are great. Just picked up "Christian Self-Mastery" and "Celebration of Discipline" as it's an area of need for me. I'd been attracted to the Stoics like Marcus Aurelius and Senica and there's a ton of great stuff to it, but ultimately I really hesitate and somewhat-similar stuff which aims in a different direction.
  20. They needed more offense and it was Jrue instead of Middleton because it's tough to trade Giannis' friend when you're in the middle of trying to sign him to an extension. After that it's just trading the long-term for the short-term and it just never worked out. Doesn't seem so different than what a lot of teams have done. Giannis has an interesting decision. Winning pretty well means going somewhere else, but retire with Milwaukee and he could well be regarded as the greatest franchise player (Kareem wasn't here all that long). Go to the Knicks and you're forgotten as soon as you retire, especially if you don't win a Ring.
  21. There's really nothing the Bucks can do at this point beside let it roll and cross your fingers. With Middleton and Lopez gone I guess that'll free up enough cash for a new #3, but that's not enough to drastically change things. And paying a fourth coach isn't going to happen. I'm figuring the Lillard contract might come up before the Giannis one does, and at that point there's no choice but to trade the both of them because you've got seven years before tanking for picks becomes viable. Probably a lesson in not trading your picks and doing swaps so far out. But good news if they do hit the reset that Lillard and especially Giannis will fetch an absolute haul. OKC has probably taught the rest of the NBA that you can't just let your stars walk and you get nothing in return.
  22. The ideal backup. Better to ask yourself "can he harness his huge potential" than "can he overcome his deficits". Worst case is you lose a 5th rounder which isn't a big deal. Most teams do the same with 2nd Round picks.
  23. QB Joe Milton to the Cowboys for a 5th Round pick. Guess he had his choice of teams for that return and his mother grew up a Cowboys fan.
  24. I'm more inclined to be contrary and guess that DE falls lower on Guten's priority list than we think. A NT to replace Clark next season or a CB or WR I think are higher targets and we don't see a DE until Round 4 unless there's a trade down for more picks. Steelers taking Sanders would make sense there and would also be hilarious. I wonder if Rodgers would retire if they do and not risk having too poor games mid-season and getting benched. Unless the Giants actually want him?
  25. We definitely wouldn't have gotten Lillard but I think the 76ers had interest at that point, or maybe he just leaves for pennies and that $40M is just spent elsewhere. Granted, it probably would have been a swap for Ben Simmons.
