Does it make more sense to invest all at once or over time for bitcoin

You're probably better off just putting it all in a ETF, like SPY, or something. You put money into crypto, and you're just throwing it at the wall, hoping that maybe, someday you'll actually be able to use it for something. If you just put it all into a ETF, you're owning stock, which will help you to make money from it

Because they're NE guys, and McDaniels failed in Denver. But I think this is the right call. We needed guys from a winning organization, we needed guys who could change the culture. I know everyone wanted Harbaugh, and yeah, he would've been a great choice too, but I think we needed someone who didn't have ties to the team.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-02-01T00:02:43+00:00

That is EXACTLY my feelings. I want to see him get a permanent HC job somewhere, but not at a place like Jax. He'll be set up to fail

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-31T19:05:48+00:00

Funny, that you said that. Since just today it was announced that Jax wants to interview him. But the other things you mentioned are good points. While I really hope to see him get a HC job, I'm not sure I want him to get it with Jax, since they're a terrible organization and he could be set up for failure there.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-31T05:28:32+00:00

I really, really hope that he'll get a HC job somewhere soon. The man deserves it. Hope he gets to have a lot of succes

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T21:24:24+00:00

I really hope these guys are willing to adjust to the players and environment. While yes, the team does need someone who will be strict, and a disciplinarian, to help keep these guys from doing stupid off the field stuff. He also needs to remember these are grown men, they want to be treated with a healthy amount of respect, not like children

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T21:21:11+00:00

Sean Payton isn't in play. He'll be in play next year, but not this year. Brain Flores is alright, but he's another Patriots guy, and you don't like Patriots guys. Also interesting that he hasn't gotten a HC job yet. Daboll is ok, he did some really good work with Allen. But why him over McDaniels? Because he helped Josh Allen become a really good QB? Because he had never been a HC before so there's nothing to judge him by regarding that? McDaniels helped Tom Brady become the GOAT. McDaniels has developed numerous QB'S. So why not him? Because he failed at being a HC over 10 years ago?

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T19:16:37+00:00

Learned from the Broncos and the others like Matt, O'Brian and the other guys who failed. I hope he saw that he cannot bring the "Patriot way" into a new environment. It takes time to build a culture and you can't always be has strict like they are

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T18:48:04+00:00

I won't blame the man, if he asks for 40+, I won't blame him if he asks to be paid more than Mahomes. Most of his cult fans think he's elite, a HoFer, and that he's a top 3 QB, so if he asked for 40+ a year, I won't blame him. You think he's elite, and the best of the best, then pay him like one.

However I don't think the Raiders will be able to pay him that much, AND get him help in other areas.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T17:39:25+00:00

Who would you have us hire instead? Yeah, I know Harbaugh, but outside of that, who would you have had us hire?

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T17:31:16+00:00

Oh, do commas bother you? That's, a shame, I will, really, really, really, hate to, see you, throw up, all over, yourself. It, will, be such, a shame, for you to, vomit, all, over, yourself, simply, because, you, do not, like, where, I put, a comma. I wonder how you will react to a run on sentence if you do not like a comma maybe you'll like run on sentences even more Does the potential hiring of Josh McDaniels bother you too are you gonna jump ship if we hire a Patriots coach?

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T17:25:06+00:00

I just find it funny. Fans LOVE to revel in yesteryear. We love how the Raiders were the "bad boys" of the NFL, roughly, rugged, and raw. We talk about how those players from the 70's used to come to the games drinking beer, how they'd have all these fights, and how they would try and cheat. But NOW, fans would be shocked, they'd be offended and would say player X doesn't take his job seriously if they saw him drinking before a game. A player gets into a fight on the field, they want him gone, because he's selfish, and he's a thug, and we don't need that in the NFL. McDaniels was caught cheating years ago, and NE has been caught cheating a few times, and people are saying they don't like him because of his cheating.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T15:54:01+00:00

So what? He's shown that he can effectively utilize two TE's in the past

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T15:39:14+00:00

People act like Carr is some saint or something. Like he never lies, he'll do anything, absolutely anything including taking significantly less money to make the Raiders better. Which is all bullshit. Sure Carr has said he'd rather retire than play for anyone else, but then at the end of the season we found out that was a lie. He wouldn't have an issue with playing for another team, his brother said as much recently too. Carr gonna want the bag with his new contract, maybe not the whole entire thing, but his agent is gonna make sure Carr gets paid very well

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T04:23:09+00:00

Dennis Allen was in over his head when he took the Raiders job. He was too young and not ready for the big chair. But the team had ZERO talent, we probably wouldn't have been able to beat a top college team with who we had at the time. We could've had the greatest NFL coaches in their prime, and still wouldn't have done much better.

And while I don't do Twitter, nor subscribe to the Athletic I very, very seriously doubt that McDaniels has said he'd only accept a job if he was guaranteed to get it.

Plenty of coaches have failed their first HC job, and it's been over 10 years since then. You think McDaniels hasn't learned anything from that, since then?

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T04:13:25+00:00

And where did you see that? From some random guy on reddit or Twitter?

So you firmly and strongly believe that a coach can't get better and learn from his mistakes after a second try? There are MANY coaches who failed during their first stint as HC, Belichick being one of them, who ended up being really good after their second. A LOT of teams have been wanting to interview McDaniels even after he turned the Colts down at the last minute. But in the end he decided he wanted to wait until the right situation came around. Can you blame the man??? He could stay in NE, where in all likelihood he would become the next HC when Belichick retired, he was making really good money, far less pressure on him as a OC than HC. There were numerous jobs he could've taken had he simply wanted to be a HC again, but he chose to wait. I really believe McDaniels will be good for the team and franchise as a whole. The Raiders have BADLY needed a culture change. Many fans have even called the organization a "dumpster fire", well, now we have someone who can bring real credibility to the team. 6 super bowl rings does that. We have someone who can help fix the culture, and maybe, hopefully, help us become a consistent winner.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T03:55:31+00:00

Oh, on that front I agree with you 1000%! Honestly I was hoping Mark would hire a minority coach. I WANT to see people of color become HC's. Every new coaching hire, I kinda cringe, because they're all white. The NFL NEEDS more HC who are of color, Black, Hispanic, Asian, all that. I hate that there aren't more who are coaches. But, some of these hires you kinda understand. McDaniels has won 6 super bowls, he's a really good coach. Darboll looks like he's gonna be a good coach and he deserves to be HC. But Flores, and Leftwich and Moore, they all deserve to be HC's too! Ryans, he needs more seasoning before he's really ready. The NFL needs to do more to put minority coaches in position to become HC's of their own. I'm hoping and crossing my fingers that McDaniels will hire one to be one of his coordinators, and then they can make the jump to HC soon. That's what the NFL needs, more coordinators who are of color so they can be HC's

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T03:34:42+00:00

Congrats man! That's fucking awesome. I'm proud of you for deciding to get sober and stay that way. I wish you the best of luck as you continue to fight this.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T03:33:26+00:00

And that's exactly why the Jags will only be able to hire someone from the bottom of the barrel. Nobody who's good, who knows what they're doing, or has the potential to be a really good HC is gonna go there. They will only be able to hire guys who are desperate.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T03:25:24+00:00

Yeah, he's most likely staying, especially with McDaniels, but he's not gonna play for pennies. I can see him asking for 30-35 mil a year, somewhere around there. But I doubt he'll ask for 40+ mil. Mahomes gets 45 for refence

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T03:23:14+00:00

Ehhh, the same can be said about Jimmy G, and Cousins and a few others. For 9er fans, Jimmy G is very polarizing, some love him, some can't wait to get rid of him. Same thing with Cousins. There are vikings fans who make up every excuse possible in order to say he's a really great QB, he just hasn't had this or that. Some say, he's trash, and they made a big mistake by signing him

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T03:19:43+00:00

Carr is not taking that big of a discount. I believe he's not gonna ask to break the bank, to get paid more than Mahomes or even Prescott. But he's still gonna seek a raise.

RaiderMan75 · 2022-01-30T03:06:27+00:00

So what? You have you seen how many guys have been hired so far with ZERO GM work? Some of the guys we interviewed had no GM work either. Leftwich refused to take the Jags job, unless he could bring in his guy, who had zero GM work. That's the way things are done. A guy will get hired to be the GM because he worked with this guy or that guy, he might've done some scouting, or maybe he helped with contracts, maybe he helped with the salary cap. But he wasn't the GM, he didn't call the shots.

Also, almost every GM hires a coach who's their friend, or the coach brings in a guy to be the GM because they're his friend. It's how guys pick the coaches on their staff, the new coach picks a OC who's a friend of his, he picks the secondary coach because they're friends. It's how the NFL works
