znModeratorProFootballTalk@ProFootballTalkDeals are in place. Packers allowed it. It has all happened quietly and behind the scenes. Rodgers simply has to make his decision.As we understand it, the Aaron Rodgers options are: Green Bay, Denver, Tennessee, or Pittsburgh. Stay tuned. https://t.co/qcIR91vXAG

znModeratorRandy FloodI was asked, who is better? Bruce Smith or Aaron Donald? Smith was a worthy HoFer, Donald is in the discussion for best defensive player ever. Give me the undersized tackle over the second best defensive end from that era.Smith was a two time DPOY and an All Pro 10 times (8 first team, two second teams). The 8 first teams are simply ridiculous accomplishments and mark Smith as one of the best defensive players ever.However, Donald has three DPOYs and has been a first team All Pro six of his seven years in the league (He was DROY the year he wasn’t an All Pro). He’ll probably add a few more All Pros and maybe a couple DPOYS before he’s done.He also plays DT which is not as stat driven as DE but still has a 20+ sack season.Donald is one of the best defensive player I’ve ever seen and I go back to Mean Joe Greene, Alan Page, and Randy White.znModeratorGod, and Aaron Donald, and Von Miller blessed him.
All true, all true. He is a great coach though. The first time Donald ever met with him, Henderson went over tape showing AD technique flaws he wanted him to correct.
znModeratorJourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigue Sean McVay confirms that Thomas Brown will move to coach tight ends this season, and will continue his role as asst. head coach. Brown had HC, OC interviews this offseason. Brown will also hire a new RBs coach.
One of the major changes happening internally for L.A. will be on the offensive side of the ball, where running backs coach Thomas Brown is being promoted, and given “more responsibility within the offense and team“. As a result, the Rams have reportedly begun to search for a replacement for Brown, and are expected to interview TCU running backs coach, run-game coordinator and assistant head coach, Ra’Shaad Samples.
You know what it looks like to me. Brown is being positioned to ascend to coordinator. Either with the Rams eventually (given how often their coordinators get hired away), or maybe he gets hired somewhere else before being promoted with the Rams. And of course being positioned to be a coordinator means being positioned to eventually become a head coach.

It is completely unclear what that means.
from https://ramblinfan.com/2022/02/23/la-rams-odell-beckham-jr-surgery-a-success/
OBJ suffered an ACL injury before halftime of Super Bowl LVI. Due to the timing of the injury, he may not be ready to play football until December 2022 at the earliest. The good news is that his surgery went well. And on top of that, he is the proud father of a newborn, Zydn.
znModeratorCooper Kupp activated “GodMode” in the post season. Carving his way through division foes, previous champions, and in the Super Bowl itself.
Kupp set a single post season record of 33 receptions, to pair with his 478 yards and 6 TDs. Numerous clutch plays and an MVP! #Cooooop pic.twitter.com/mStDoHn0qf

znModeratorNATO exists only to defend western Europe against an imperial and expansionist Russian right-wing autocrat who assassinates his critics. The deal Russia make with Ukraine when the latter dismantled the nukes wasn’t upheld either. NATO is nothing but a defensive arrangement against an aggressive Putinized Russia. Eliminate Putin and a more benign Russia could easily de-escalate the entire NATO situation since under those conditions NATO would have no reason to exist.
You are making the distinction that NATO is strictly a military alliance. I’m using it as a concrete representation of Euro-American hegemony. Yeah, NATO isn’t going to invade. It doesn’t have to. Euro-American business interests are consuming Ukraine without NATO having to do anything beyond military exercises. And I think it’s very doubtful that NATO would go away without the threat of Putin. It didn’t go away after the threat of the USSR disappeared.
Sry Z, don’t buy it. The only hegemony NATO has is over the territories of allied NATO countries, and the only reason for its existence is mutual defense against the world’s 2nd largest nuclear power. The only thing it denies Russia is re-expansion to the old USSR borders. That would be true no matter who was in charge of Russia. Certainly having a grade-A level psychopath in charge of Russia at the present does not help.
Again. What was NATO wearing that caused Putin to react so aggressively?
At least when the USA invaded Iraq we knew Hussein was a murderous despot, though that didn’t stop us from criticizing the action (which I was wholeheartedly a part of). Ukraine? It’s just land grabbing.
