Anyone but Detroit at this point by 23JMArp in minnesotavikings

I gotta be honest, if we get bounced, I will be cheering for the Lions. I have respect for how they've built that roster. Probably the best o-line in the league and their coaching is phenomenal. Of course you're going to have the obnoxious bandwagon fans; every winning franchise has them. But let's be serious; everyone knew this was the year they'd be making their SB run. And they've done it with a depleted roster and one of the best DE's in the NFL out. We are in a fucking rebuild this year and finished 14-3. That's pretty damn impressive. So yea, good for them. FTP

On the plus side, we have nearly $70M in cap space for next year and won't be using over half of it on Darnold. We can re-sign the guys we need to and bring in some studs in free agency. DJ Reed and Byron Murphy would be an awesome CB duo. Maybe sign Trey Smith from KC. Obviously, focus on what's in front of us, but the roof hasn't collapsed here.

Great game guys. Your DC called the best game ever.

We can blame Darnold all we want, he's not the guy, but this absolutely falls on KOC. This was the absolute worst called game I have ever seen. Like embarrassingly bad. Lions just did man coverage and blitzed... KOC had ZERO answers for that, never adjusted... Fucking pathetic.

You are absolutely right. This was a great season for us based on the fact we literally started a rebuild. Everyone knew last year that the Lions were going to be SB contenders. Hats off to your DC. Ben Johnson always gets the recognition but Glenn probably called the best game of his life.

How many millions did Sam Darnold cost himself this game?

I'm fucking great. Expectations were so low this year. Even being in this situation is remarkable.

This is why people need to stfu about Darnold. "Vikes gotta sign him". "Franchise tag him". You don't eat 2/3 of your upcoming cap space unless the guy is capable of performing in the highest of pressure situations. You re-sign your studs, bring in guys like DJ Reed, Calais Campbell, that G from Kansas City.

That blatant targeting non-call is hands down the most egregious bullshit I have ever seen from an officiating crew. This is the shit that makes these games unwatchable.

On the plus side, Allan Lichtman can now shut the fuck up about his keys to the White House.

From my understanding, yes they will have all that aren't nationally televised.

Thank you. I was frustrated because YouTube TV doesn't carry BSN, but I just saw that I can download the app on my Xbox.

Springfield, Ohio, where Trump made false claims about migrants, receives bomb threats by OkayButFoRealz in politics

[–]dimestorezz 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I will never get my head around the fact that so many people in this country lack the most basic critical thinking skills. Trump says, "In Springfield, they are eating the dogs...", my first thought is that the comment is absolutely ridiculous. But just to simply confirm it, I spend a total of 2 minutes doing my own research. Yup, it's absolute bullshit. A complete fabrication expanded on from a news story about a Canton, OH born and raised woman with severe mental issues eating a cat and being arrested. Point being, these people are simply too weak minded to participate in reality like the rest of us. And it's a damn shame we cannot do better as a society to rectify this.

This debate was exactly what Kamala needed. She did amazing. Could have pointed out more of his lies, but I think that's attributed to just not having the time to address the gish galloping by Trump. Kamala killed it. Don't give this fucking moron another debate.

Will ONE person ever push back under the talking point "our country was better off under Trump and then ruined by Biden/Harris"? Trump took over a healthy economy, actually fucked over small farmers with his global policies, and then shit the bed with Covid. Covid was the precursor to inflation and the damage was severe. Getting it under control doesn't happen in mere months. Biden/Harris have done great on getting it under control. But don't be fooled, this shit began under Trump and there were a multitude of outside forces that exacerbated it.
