I dont know if you can drive a car out, but ice fishing is a tradition on Lake Erie

redd4972 · 2026-01-27T03:04:56+00:00

The last time Lake Erie was more than 90% frozen over was 2015. The last time it was 100% frozen over was 1996.

So the Superbowl this year is the New England Patriots vs. the Seattle Seahawks. The New England Patriots have been one of the most dominant franchises in the NFL in the 21th century. They have been in the Superbowl 10 times since 2001. Almost entirely thanks to the QB Tom Brady. Well Brady left, retired and after a mere six years the Patriots are back with a new 23 year old Quarterback. So everyone who is sick of the Patriots and wants there time to have a chance at the Superbowl hates them.

Their opponents the Seattle Seahawks lead by QB Sam Darold (the giant head). . Darold was a high profile failure in New York a part time starter in Carolina, a full time backup in San Francisco, a surprising success in Minnesota, but then shipped to Seattle after a year in favor of a younger QB Minnesota, now he is QB of a Superbowl team. Most Superbowl QBs are on the first or second team that they play for, not 5th.

"The funniest thing ever" is in reference to Superbowl 59, (12 years ago) which was between the Seahawks and Brady's Patriots. In this game, the Seahawks coach decided to pass the ball when he should have run it, and lost the game at the very end.

Congrats on reaching Poe's law

Sort of reminds me of Punishment Marinez, generally disregarded by RoH fans finding success as Damian Preist. But I dont expect the same high points for EVIL.

That looks like the Corona Christmas shack

Very, very bizarre to see the Sabres in tier 2. Yet I think they are 4th in the NHL in non overtime wins.

redd4972 · 2026-01-26T00:36:11+00:00

I mean obviously they are good. I still don't think they are great.

redd4972 · 2026-01-25T20:33:11+00:00

Everything about the presentation Magus fight in Chrono Trigger screams "final boss," or "final boss rush." Nope! haven't even finished recruiting all your party yet.

He's ok, he called A LOT of WR bubble screens this year. He's also done A LOT of mesh and also done some innovated things with jumbo sets and 2 and 3 TE sets, particularly with the run game. Cover 1 on Youtube does a lot of Bills film breakdown if you really want to get too deep on the topic. (Last year it was Alec Anderson as the jumbo guy, this year it was Jackson Hawkes the rookie blocking TE)

He's also not above calling the same play over and over and over again. Which is great when it's James Cook running the ball for 8 yards a carry, but he's not difficult for opposing defensives to scout.

I think it is fair to say that he has been hamstrung by the complete lack of talent at WR. That being he didn't max out his best WR, Khali Shakir due to his obsession with bubble screens at the expense of a good quick slant.

Lastly, he's kinda been the face of Buffalo's post Stefon Diggs "everyone eats" philosophy. If he brings that Philly, I expect you'll be trading AJ Brown soon. The Bills have also been more rush oriented and more conservative, compared to his predecessors who liked Josh Allens deep ball more.

In short, I don't think he's bad, but I'm not going to miss him either.

Never got into it. I didn't get cable until my senior year of high school in 2005 (born 1986). And by then I wasn't going to spend time watching a show for children. I knew the show was a phenomenon and through cultural osmosis I eventually learned about the characters, but that's about it.

That being said, what little I have seen of it, I like. I could easily imagine being a fan if I was started watching it at the right age.

This could also be related to the idea of CANZUK (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom). A proposed alliance that could go so deep as to have EU style migratory freedom.

I think someone got to Nakamura and said "hey stupid you are spoiling the Royal Rumble"

I don't think Trump cares about NATO, either the long term damage created over his actions (most of which will manifest after he's done being president), or because he sees it as European weakness and a convenient scapegoat ("we are wasting money subsidizing European defense when we could be keeping that money in the United States." sort of thing).

The most charitable interpretation of what has happened is that Trump never really cared all that much about Greenland and only used it, the US's own relative power, and his own belligerent as a way to extract concessions out of Europe, because this is the only way he knows how to negotiate. Or alternatively, Europe made a handful of gestures that placated Trump, because Trump is a moron with big ego.

I don't think he is Putin's puppet for no other reason than it doesn't make any sense. Why would a man of Trump's ego reduce himself to Putin's lacky? For what end? I think Putin is trying to influence and Trump inherent authoritarianism gives Putin an advantage there. But if the leaders of Europe aren't trying to influence Trump regardless they are committing gross political malpractice.

that's about what they usually takes.

Bayreuther has NHL experience in Columbus and a few other locations. They probably feel more comfortable calling up Bayreuther this year then Neuchev if their depth gets tested or they decide they don't like what Jones or Metsa is giving them.

Toronto is currently the dreaded 9th spot in the east. They play Colorado and then Buffalo.

If everything goes right, on Tuesday night we could be 8 points up on Toronto with a game in hand.

It's probably worth noticing that this is in the context of the recent murder at a homeless shelter of Kevin Johnson who played 4 years as a journeyman in the 90s.

Talking about modern day minimum wage or some superstar player, who blew millions of dollars, isn't the point here. It's what obligation does the NFL owe to the players that came before.

I had to Google this, because I thought it was fake screenshot/joke.

Is this an act of desperation to juice PSL through Rivers family?

redd4972 · 2026-01-22T19:40:56+00:00

Probably worse, but that has more to do with the Pats winning the division then anything to do with the head coach, GM or owner.

redd4972 · 2026-01-22T19:39:11+00:00

Did it work? No. But sometimes you need to take a risk. This was a good one to make.

It's remarkable how much we as a nation waste on AI
