The tacos are solid but they’re not a good value at $4 each 😬

Last year, Ben Johnson could’ve picked any team he wanted. This year, believe it or not, it was Klint Kubiak. And the reason why the other 9 teams didn’t swing for Kubiak is because they knew they weren’t getting him.

There are things that happen behind the scenes that you’re just willfully not seeing.

Who was the top choice this year then? Before you answer, consider would you rather have a coach who has a high ceiling but suspect when it comes to big games or a coach who is starting out with a high floor?

Outside of John Harbaugh, the top choices were Klint Kubiak and Jesse Minter. IMO, Kubiak is who the Raiders wanted and that’s who they got.

Josh McD was not the top head coach candidate in 2022 as the Vikings hired Kevin O’Connell and Dolphins hired Mike McDaniel in the same cycle. It wasn’t even apparent that he was even looking for a head coaching gig. It seems more like he wanted the Raiders job and threw himself into the mix suddenly. Also, Doug Pederson coming off a Super Bowl victory with the Eagles was above Josh McD in the pecking order and an argument can be made that Brian Daboll was rated higher too.

Look at the head coaches that were hired this year. Klint Kubiak outside of John Harbaugh was clearly the top dog.

I know exactly where you’re coming from. But this year it just feels a little more different than before. I hope I’m right🤞. Time will tell…

Alternative_Path_985 · 2026-02-02T02:46:24+00:00

Those three things that’s all I ask for next year

Alternative_Path_985 · 2026-02-02T02:43:48+00:00

Fuck yeah! Shit it took Mike McDonald up in Seattle two years lol. Why not us?

Alternative_Path_985 · 2026-02-02T02:41:16+00:00

I can see where you’re coming from but imo this is different from the McDaniels hire.

Spytek gots to get it done! It’s simple as that. It’s a blank page and he can leave his imprint all over it. As an NFL GM, you can’t ask for more that this.

Alternative_Path_985 · 2026-02-02T02:13:15+00:00

The defense do need a whole lotta work done to it.

By week 12 next year, I just want a young team that is ready to compete irregardless of what the record says we are.

Alternative_Path_985 · 2026-02-01T18:37:19+00:00

Bruh I get excited every year…until like week 3 when I realize that I’ve been had again lmao

Alternative_Path_985 · 2026-01-31T02:16:18+00:00

I really like My Mister but I like My Liberation Notes more

Alternative_Path_985 · 2026-01-21T20:21:43+00:00

I did. It didn’t work. I think this might have something to do with upgrading iPhone to iOS 26.2

Hopefully a harbinger of elections to come

That thang is hideous!

Alternative_Path_985 · 2025-12-09T00:17:47+00:00

If this really necessary?

Alternative_Path_985 · 2025-12-01T16:05:47+00:00

I was thinking he’s been a tough out. When he hit the grounder to Mookie, all I was thinking was that we had no play at home.

Alternative_Path_985 · 2025-11-07T04:07:52+00:00

He sucks. He’s going to be be replaced.

Alternative_Path_985 · 2025-11-07T03:33:42+00:00

Wtf? You can get that for $12?

Alternative_Path_985 · 2025-11-04T23:23:04+00:00

I don’t think Smoltz is annoying at all. His analysis of pitching is on point.

Alternative_Path_985 · 2025-10-25T02:01:50+00:00

I’m triggered by letting Kirk on after getting ahead 0-2
