    Wonder what happened with Aubrey Pleasant? He didnt keep a job with McVay and he didnt get a job anywhere else.

    It does seem strange Ty would be turning down 5 million dollars to stay in college, unless someone assured him he would go in the first round.

    I’m not sure there’s ever been a first round where only one QB was picked. With all the great college teams across this great-dying-land of ours, its hard to fathom the fact that there is only one great-QB-prospect. Did they all become figure-skaters?

    I dont want a ‘developmental’ QB in the first round. I either want 2 high-impact players in the first round or trade down and get some more picks.

    One of the biggest calls/plays in NFL history. And they got it right. (unless the whistle blew, and i didnt hear a whistle)

    Fans will remember it forever, like the Tuck-rule-play, and the Holy Roller and the non-call PI against the Saints.

    Adolph Reed is in a long podcast on this site. Here’s a snippet of that. He basically sez, Jesse was all about Jesse. He contrasts that with Bernie. Fwiw:

    Seahawks purchased by Allen in 1997 for 195 million.

    Valued at about 7 Billion as of now.

    It is not lost on NFL-watchers that Nate Scheelhaase is black,
    and that the owners lean toward hiring white whiz-kid Offensive Coordinators and
    that McV has had a bunch of white OCs in the past
    and this is his first black OC…

    AI Overview

    After passing the boundary of the heliosphere, a spacecraft or object enters the
    interstellar medium (ISM). The specific region immediately outside the heliosphere is often referred to as the Very Local Interstellar Medium (VLISM).
    Here are the specific names and regions associated with the boundary and beyond the heliosphere:

    Heliopause: This is the specific boundary itself, where the solar wind is completely stopped by the interstellar medium and pressure balances. Voyager 1 and 2 crossed this point to enter interstellar space.
    Very Local Interstellar Medium (VLISM): The region of space immediately outside the heliopause. It consists of the plasma and dust that fills the Milky Way.
    Local Bubble: The low-density region of the interstellar medium in which the Sun and the heliosphere are currently traveling.
    Interstellar Space: The broader, general term for the space between stars.
    Oort Cloud: While not technically “after” the heliosphere (it is partially within it), this massive, distant spherical shell of icy objects surrounds the Solar System and is considered part of the Sun’s gravitational, if not magnetic, domain.

    Key Boundaries Surrounding the Heliosphere:

    Termination Shock: The inner edge of the heliosheath where solar wind slows to subsonic speeds.
    Heliosheath: The turbulent, outermost region of the heliosphere.
    Heliopause: The final, definitive boundary separating the Sun’s plasma from interstellar plasma.
    Heliotail: The rear part of the heliosphere, which is stretched into a tail-like structure

    Never heard of Whitney Webb.

    Seems like a candidate for her car mysteriously exploding in the middle of a street in Malta.

    Yeah, I’ve been listening to her for a couple of years. She is possibly the last living American journalist 🙂

    I noticed this right off, because it was so predictable — The coverage of Epstein is always about the Pedophile stuff — its rarely about the money-power stuff. The legendary-Whitney-Webb touches on that here:

    If i really boil the 2025 season down to its essence, for ‘me’ it was — Stafford and Puka.

    Lots of other stuff goin on, but that is what i will remember.

    And like the Martz team, this one was a play or two away from a Ring.

    Some amount of resentment/hurt-feelings is unavoidable in some of these football divorces, and i do find it interesting that Kupp doesnt seem to have any animosity toward McVay. I mean, if its not McVay he’s mad at, who then?

    At any rate, my wild-speculation is that Kupp is right, and the Rams owed him better communication and a better ‘send-off’. A recognition of what he did for them. No Kupp, no Super Bowl Ring. Triple-Crown. All-time year.

    For teams like the Rams this free-agency-class is plenty-good. Cause the top teams only need a little tinkering. A player here, a player there.

    …Fleury was George Kittle’s second TEs coach in the NFL. Started out as a QC and now is an OC in Seattle.

    How come nobody ever blames the QC for anything?

    …I hope this retrospectively clarifies and explains Noam Chomsky’s interactions with Epstein. Noam and I recognize the gravity of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes and the profound suffering of his victims. Nothing in this statement is intended to minimize that suffering, and we express our unrestricted solidarity with the victims.

    Valéria Chomsky

    Yeah, ive been following the story.

    I have many feelings about it. One particular feeling is in ‘infuriates’ me that Noam and Valeria did this shit — palld around with billionaires — because it has allowed the CIA and Mossad and the usual propagandists to have some wonderful dirt on Chomsky and thereby steer untold numbers of young people away from his writings. His writings, of course, are solid — but this shit has and will tarnish him so badly that a lot of youngsters wont read him now. He’s cancelled, so his IDEAS get cancelled.

    The older folks, who were influenced by him long ago, still find his writings as important as ever.

    I thought he was kinda changing a bit as he got himself a new wife and moved into old age.

    I have a book laying around here on Epstein. I aim to read it this year. Just curious about the guy.

    Ive asked many real-life humans who they wanted to win the Super Bowl, and the answer was overwhelmingly the same. No matter what team they were fans of.

    “I just didn’t want the Patriots to win it.”

    Ok, that is my last word on the super bowl.

    I shall move on to blaming the Rams OC for this years unjust debacle.
