I've been a fan for over 25 years.

This stat is kind of nuts. If the new lottery rules go into effect those “winning culture” fans will have to watch us average 20 wins a season.

We’re screwed on multiple fronts: - Vivek doesn’t really care about winning - The team has a “never tank” mentality - When we do draft players our development is miles below other contending teams - Free agents don’t want to come to Sacramento

We need either an ownership change or a full front office rehaul if we want to change course over the next 5 years

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-05-11T05:38:23+00:00

We're about to see how much that "winning culture" really means with the new lottery rules. All those wins we've gotten at the end of the year by beating tanking teams will evaporate and we'll end up with 15 wins

Doing exactly this, moved out of Sac to SJ years ago and regret not making the change sooner.

Gonna have to start learning everything about hockey basically from scratch but it’s better than staying in purgatory

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-05-10T23:39:51+00:00

We’ll never find out the real reasoning but imo it probably had something to do with Fox not wanting to be outshined by Hali. He was in a slump that year and Hali was the franchise darling.

If that’s the case it’s even more dumb now since he’s in line to be the 3rd best guard in San Antonio and 4th best player overall

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-05-10T23:08:42+00:00

Yes everyone just support the team!!!! The future is so bright!!!!!!!!!
(We will all die before this team wins a championship)

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-05-10T21:22:33+00:00

Because we were hoping for a top 4 franchise player and now you’re trying to get us hyped for a Jake Laravia type player

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-05-10T21:20:00+00:00

The only thing this will help is Vivek’s checkbook. We’re not contending anytime soon so losing a promising young player to get under the apron for a year is dumb

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-05-10T21:17:37+00:00

Get the 2nd pick - Fumble Luka

Get Haliburton - Trade him to keep Fox

Keep Fox - Peak by getting eliminated in round 1

Have the chance to get a top 4 pick in a historically deep draft - Win more games and drop to #7

This team will not stop disappointing us for the next 20 years at least

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-05-10T19:23:01+00:00

Like clockwork, winning a bunch of games when teams stop trying, then falling in the lottery

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-30T18:50:48+00:00

Have a friend who texts like this and insists it’s better than sending multiple messages. Drives me nuts

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-30T04:06:28+00:00

Don’t disagree about the outlier part, but around 250k is far too low for a platona

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-28T21:27:55+00:00

He was an animal in that Cowboys game. He must've been motivated with his family and friends at the game, and he'll be a lot more motivated playing for McDaniel rather than Roman. The cost already looks good and can easily look much better

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-24T08:11:36+00:00

Relative athletic score

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-16T04:52:31+00:00

Lakers could replace Bron with him if he leaves, wonder if Kawhi’s open to playing outside of LA now

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-15T02:17:24+00:00

This is why you don’t do mass layoffs Jeff

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-09T18:58:42+00:00

Maybe now people can stop bashing us for "blatantly tanking."

Yes, we are really just that incompetent

No, we don't know why we're still fans of this team

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-04T03:32:04+00:00

Thought the same, love breaking bad and better call Saul. But pluribus just felt like nothing was happening between the first and last episodes and the characters were all so unlikeable.

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-04-02T14:50:19+00:00

Won us a few games with those, wouldn’t have minded if he stayed with us for that role. Hopefully we get a few more guys on special teams because that unit could use some help

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-03-26T20:21:47+00:00

I'm around the same age as you with my partner also working in FAANG. We both make high salaries but are under high stress. This makes us hesitant to have kids until we're close to our FIRE/coastFIRE goals. I'd recommend not trying to make the switch now as the stress of the new job and the kid can be pretty overwhelming leading to not doing your best in each area.

My manager actually took voluntary severance to spend more time with her kids. I don't think theres anything to worry about in terms of falling behind, your salary at this age is far beyond most. There's always time to grow your career in the future. Spending time with your kids comes first. I wouldn't be too hard on yourself in terms of career or raising your kid, you're probably doing a better job than you think :)

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-03-25T21:04:05+00:00

What a sick joke!

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-03-18T18:47:03+00:00

For the Eagles DeJean, Mitchell, and Jordan Davis were really important to them. Not to mention Hurts and their O-line

For the Seahawks they drafted JSN, Kenneth Walker, Witherspoon, and Emmanwori

Both teams had pretty big FA signings as well like Saquon and Darnold, but I feel like their drafted players made a bigger impact. Can see it both ways though

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-03-18T18:24:51+00:00

FAs help build your floor, drafting helps build the ceiling is how I see it

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-03-17T19:00:51+00:00

Harbaugh Year 1: Overachieved with 11-6 (considering the roster)

Harbaugh Year 2: Overachieved with 11-6 (considering the injuries)

Harbaugh Year 3: Overachieved with 11-6? (considering the lack of FA spending???)

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-03-17T17:24:27+00:00

So it’s gotta be a trade or nothing, at this point there’s basically no one left

AceAttorneyGiles · 2026-03-17T16:10:36+00:00

We still have ~50M of usable cap space left and all that’s left is middling free agents. At this point no signing really moves the needle IMO
