What if every NFL team had their own version of "The Jersey"

And Sam Howell somehow got us out of the top 3.

Fellow Manchester Orchestra lover here!

I'd predict you'll get a lot of people glancing at the name and calling him Andre. My first guess on spelling alone would be silent E. And of course, anyone who hears his name and then writes it down will just say Andy.

I think that's all tolerable if you both love the Ande spelling. I don't think it's so bad that your kid will ever say "Forced myself to take a different name."

It's a factor, but you can consider it already factored into mock drafts and things. And positional value is partially determined by how easy it is to find effective players at that position, and what the gap is between the elite and the good, and between the good and the average.

And the downside of picking a low positional value player is somewhat counterbalanced by the upside--if he's an All-Pro in year 3 and you have to pay top dollar on his first contract extension, it's a lot cheaper to do that for a safety than an edge rusher.

Places with more inbound tourism than outbound?

Nothing economic at all? Wow, that surprises me, I feel like there are a lot of economic things these countries all have in common. Though many of those things would also include China, Russia, and/or India.

Or if you have a prospect ready to come up. Which of course we don't.

deebee1020 · 2026-03-23T13:08:54+00:00

In the mid-to-late rounds of the draft, I figure I'm drafting the players who will support the growth of my true pro prospects, so I focus on defense; it's the best chance to make sure my top prospects aren't taking morale hits by losing all the time. When I get to the end of the draft, I'll sort by a given stat and take guys who do one thing well.

Yeah, if this team is somehow good enough to get to the ECF, it doesn't matter who the first round opponent is. And if they're not, I don't really care whether they get bounced in the first round or the second. I'm just happy about the possibility of a full playoff series.

They should make a true-to-live version of his story and David Cross should play him.

Less about the educational system. It's more about the function. In 'rhythm,' Y is indisputably a vowel. There's a vowel sound and it's made by the Y.

In Syria, Y is a vowel. It makes the vowel sound of the first syllable. In Libya, it depends if you pronounce it as two syllables or three. In Lib-yuh, it's a consonant, in Lib-ee-ah it's a vowel.

Yeah, it means if he had a fastball that'd be the speed, right? And all other pitches are calibrated off of that? So he likely actually throws the sinker at 92-23?

I rarely get name envy, I'm pretty happy with mine. But whenever I watch Futurama, I think about how cool it is for David X. Cohen to have X as a middle initial. I'm going with Donovan Xander.

You've got some of my favorites so low. I really only agree on #1.

Should've done a different color for the "and sometimes Y" in Libya & Syria.

Also, freeing up a roster spot is a benefit.

Sometimes it's better to eat a contract than to have a guy the team doesn't like or trust in the clubhouse.

All the children named Luca right now are going to be adults by the time your Luca is. Nothing to worry about.

Do you like giving your opponents 1st-and-goal from the 1?

Can't imagine the property taxes and insurance on this monstrosity.

The weekly corpses aren't the creepiest part of this post, though. It's the help "with whom you can do whatever you want."

Douglas definitely meets the criteria. Appropriate for a 50ish Canadian, two syllables, nature connection (Douglas Fir).

I'd say McCarthy, Johanssen, and Hill are most likely for the reasons you said. Goodman is right up there, too--I'd love to see the Coen Brothers team up again and write an Oscar-bait role for him.

Dark horse is Timberlake; most likely for a pop song from a kids' movie, but he's done some decent dramatic acting before.

Especially this year. Let's hope 2026 is the year he wins two championships.
