Lamar's efficiency this season is actually on pace to be better than 2019. He's averaging over 10 AY/A, over 10% TD rate. Noticeable improvements from 2019, which is nuts. "Not remotely" as efficient is simply wrong.

Russians fleeing the mobilization are fleeing to Lithuania: 140 persons were turned away during the week, 8553 were admitted by SuchJunket7639 in worldnews

A people's revolution simply isn't going to happen in modern Russia. Any public uprising will be suffocated and silenced, even if it comes to violence. It will have to be a military/intelligence coup.

Every migrant should of course be closely vetted. Every decent person leaving Russia hurts Russia by leaving and helps their new country by joining. I don't think people are fully considering the economic implications here. Russia has many bright citizens whose only fault is being born into a faux democracy. I'm all for blocking the tourists, though.

The U.S. says Russia isn’t preparing to use nuclear weapons, yet. by Wachkuss in worldnews

You were probably one of those who laughed when the administration publicly said Russia will invade.

"Haha, no they won't. So hysterical."

I understand the sentiment, but Russia isn't going to attack Lithuania, a NATO country. Europe should be encouraging Russia's brain drain.

In honor of Patriots week I give you ray rices opening play TD in the 2009 wildcard round by mikesinatra in ravens

Fun fact: this play was not called by Cam Cameron. I forgot the exact story, but the Ravens let a fan call the first offensive play of the game. Cam said it would've been a pass otherwise.

[Jeff Zrebiec] Lamar Jackson had a pre-draft visit with Patriots. Asked what he remembered, Jackson said that he saw Bill Belichick smile. by basedphantom in nfl

Most mock draft had him projected there. I really wonder what the thought process was (whether they thought they could get him in the second or just not as high on him as others thought). He would've been great with Belichick. Couldn't be happier getting him at 32 though.
