Scamp have a orvis 7 weight Clearwater fly rod
Don’t use it nearly as often as I should
Mostly use the baitcasters for bass
I’m about to buy an Orvis 8 weight for Saltwater…
7 weight seems too big for anything other than Salmon or Steelhead in freshwater
Heck… I used a 6 weight for that 24 lb rainbow I caught
Good for lm bass
Seems like it would be too big to me… but hey, if it works nothing wrong with it
Any mock that has us taking neither a DL nor an OL with the first two picks is lazy
Everything I’ve heard they will be looking at defense first in the draft
doesn’t mean that if some player they have high on their board like a Nelson or Barkley fall to us at #13 they would not jump on that
I would be absolutely giddy if Barkely is there at 13… would seem an impossibility
if something strange happens like a lot of QBs come off the board first with trades and such, we might have a shot at a player we did not think would be there
Hi
-Jonathan Allen
if they thought the CB was BPA then I could see it, but two WRs back to back after that? after taking a 1st round WR two years ago?
The difference between Soviet era missile technology and Russian current missile technology
the Soviets did not have the access to the precision manufacturing technology that the West used.
A lot of the Soviet missiles were for shit. The would have either exploded when trying to take off, disintegrated in flight or missed their target by 15-50 miles. That is why they built big warheads for their missiles.
I’m sure since the fall of the Soviet Empire the Russia have gotten their hands on a lot better manufacturing technology.
Also, the Russians have been working on hyperspeed missiles and torpedoes for 40 years
Peeps don’t like the way Doug Williams talks, because he doesn’t sound like a fantasy football fruit, makes me like the way he talks even more.
It was a good interview. Enjoyed it. No double speak, straight and to the point.
Gosh though, I just couldn’t understand what he was saying… it’s like, so hard to feel inspired when I’m struggling to understand, you know, everyday american english, like, spoken by a (cuts eyes and dips head) commoner.
Agreed
Doesn’t matter where Steve buys ammunition. That is, now that Trump’s coming for his guns.

“It’s weird seeing a 340-pounder running with a 200-pound linebacker and getting to the ball at the same time. Something’s wrong here.” The rise of Vita Vea.
So what were your thoughts on Doug’s presser? Other than his lack of annunciation skills….he pretty much said we need to improve the D interior line and running game and WRs…..said they won’t tag Kirk,…I actually thought he was generally pretty informative..
without listening to it
I’m guessing he said words that are non-committal but somewhat informative if you want to know general direction. But all of that might be smoke.
He gave credence to things that would be obvious to most people but that will baffle conspiracy theorists
I thought his candor was refreshing. Not sure if it was smart … but it was refreshing.
So here’s what Chad Reuter (NFL.com) has the QBs mocked:
1. Allen to Cleveland
2. Darnold to NYG
5. (trade) Mayfield to Buffalo
6. Rosen to Jets
8. (trade) Jackson to Cards
and for FWIW, he has the Skins taking CB Denziel Ward (Vea #9, Edmunds #10, Davenport #12)
2nd round: Skins Courtland Sutton (WR, SMU)
4th round: Skins Michael Gallup (WR, CSU)
No DL help…No thanks.
my first reaction: you’d think they would have enough money to pay people at NFL.com because this is the quality of work that people who sit around and talk football for free do, not professionals.
so Russia claiming they have nuclear missiles we can’t shoot down? Our guys are confirming this. How do you say, “The Arms race is officially on again in Russian?”
Gonna be like Fallout 4 the video game soon.
putin might be the one person i believe less than trump. well… ok, it’s a tie.
Putin has nuclear missiles that we cannot shoot down – Hillary Rodhammer Clinton
Happy?
tbf, I saw it reported on Fox News this morning
i’ll believe it if our intelligence community says so, NOT because putin says so.

Oh whatever Vlad. We beat you to ramjet missiles. Not only do we have them, we’ve got more than you. Bitch.

Steve, yesterday you said you weren’t going to shop at Dick’s for sporting goods any more because of they were going to stop selling “assault style weapons.” You also stated that you purchased your ammunition at Walmart anyway because it is cheaper.
Did you know that Walmart stopped selling “assault style weapons” in 2015?
http://www.businessinsider.com/walmart-stopped-selling-assault-guns-2018-2
Still gonna buy your ammunition at Walmart?
Obvious solution: Target
I think Target stopped selling firearms by the time I was working there (in the mid 1990s) and they at that time only sold ammunition. And then, they clearanced that all out too.
Yeah, I haven’t seen any.
About the time they started pronouncing it, TARJAY.
If true, that’s funny. Kinda like a vegetarian wearing leather shoes.
Walmart usually has shit ammo. They actually sell shit guns also, fwiw.

Will murder off coverage on some routes, but:
WEAKNESSES Thin build with tight skin. Frame needs more strength, but may not be able to get there. Long, press corners cause hesitation in his release. Hasn’t learned to use hands as press counter. Too easily impeded by contact. Routes can be redirected by quality bump and run talent. Inconsistent using body positioning to leverage target area along deep sideline. Despite natural hands, struggles with focus drops when he senses a hitter nearby. Had 20 drops over three seasons. Scouts question toughness to catch in NFL traffic. Dances after catch on hitches rather than getting it upfield. Runs after catch can be thwarted immediately by first contact. (Nfl.com; http://www.nfl.com/draft/2018/profiles/calvin-ridley?id=2560011)
Not what I’m looking for at #13.
‘Tight skin’? Scouts are really getting carried away these days.
yeah, I’m not sure what that means, maybe you have to watch tape to get it? maybe it means he’s lean? or, that he’s NOT lean for his size? but that wouldn’t make sense
Like an overstuffed sausage.
Oh hell no!!
That would do it. Drafting that wr at 13. I’d have to officially turn in my Redksins fan card and embrace my adopted “hoemtown” team, the Panthers. lol

Not bad, really. I think most teams consider 9″ the cut off.
knowing the issues with Wentz’s recovery, would you trade Foles for the #4 overall pick?
it would save the Browns from having to make what would certainly be a tragic choice
and then they could ransom that #1 overall

Hand 9 1/2
did he put on weight?
I think that’s about 5 lbs heavier than he was listed.
I would have guessed 11 lbs, but google says 4
here’s to hoping someone wants him at 13
but let’s be honest, if someone really wants him, they’ll going to trade up higher than that, as we saw last year
Cravens for M. Bryant rumor actually made sense.
eventhough that rumor was denied, you’re not sure what to believe this time of year either way
this WR corps needs a leader, and I’m not sure Bryant is that guy. that would not necessarily kill the deal, but for me, it would mean that I’d not be done pursuing WRs after that deal.
We’ll trade you our headcase for your pain in the butt.
Trade you a hemorrhoid for a migraine.
Griddlecakes!
Old fashioned sourdough griddle cakes can not be beat.
mix in some hemp protein at a 3 or 4:1 ratio with the base “flour”
it adds a further detail of texture and “wholesomeness”
and the protein and fiber addition makes sure they stick to those ribs
I’d trade him to recoup that 3rd rounder. Denver has 2 each of 3rd, 4th, and 5th or some combo like that. They had Cravens high on their board in 2016. So it may happen.
why would denver, or anybody, give us a 3rd for him?
because they have a FA at his position and they had a 1st round grade on him. But if it is a 3rd rounder, it’s going to be a 2019 3rd rounder based on some metric(s) that Cravens hits in 2018 (like, he starts or plays in X number of games)
i’ll bet you an imaginary blog dollar no one gives us a 3rd for him, this year or next.
Bitcoin bet.
If the Redskins feel like he can contribute in some packages he has some value not worth trading him, but at some point the trade value is enough to move him. And teams like certainty. Broncos will feel like they’ve shored up a position they might lose in FA. Who knows. And remember, to the rubes that follow the table like it’s a religious book, a 3rd round pick next year is as good as a hamburger on Tuesda… wait… a 4th round pick this year, according to trade value.
it’s on!
shh… but I agree. I think it is a bit optimistic to get a 3rd round pick. if they get that, it would prob be because he played in all 16 games at some other Y performance level.
he appears to be lacking a Y.
I don’t think I’d bet a blog dollar on any of the deals proposed NOR the idea that cravens will be here. I don’t know. I’d bet a blog dollar that if he is traded, it is not for a 1st or 2nd round pick this year or next year.
and a condition that a 3rd next year might include something like him making the pro bowl
I’m going to guess the pick would be a conditional 2019 pick if it goes down, not a 3rd rounder in 2018
I think we all would. I doubt Denver would though.

Packers hope to extend Rodgers before Cousins, Brees sign
I bet they do lol
ceiling would be set
in theory
but the fact is, Cousins is going to hit FA
and the thing I think that could hurt Cousins more than Rodgers signing first would be AJ McCarron and/or Foles moving teams before he did.
Did we trade Cravens yet? And dang…Doug doesn’t pull punches….he tells you whats up…when you can actually understand what he’s saying LOL.
English major he is not
I’ll believe it when I see it. Who’s calling about a guy who quit before he’s even taken to the practice field yet?
For me, it’s just Rapport making clicks.
yes, I learned up here that he quit in college too so it’s not his first time giving up on his team. Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me!
did you guys see/hear that video someone posted with will compton talking to cravens? cravens just sees it all as drudgery and something he just has to get through. was talking about counting the days til camp would be over. did not at all sound like he like football.
he’s back for the money. doesn’t sound like he likes playing football.

Nice!
Hooked a 600lb hammerhead on that trip. No chance landing it
I caught one that was about 4′ long in FL. Cut him loose. They’re cool looking sharks. Mostly hooked up on black tips.
I hear they taste like a shoe
Hammerheads?
Yep
My Dominican friend’s wife used to cook the black tips up with beans and rice, it was tasty. You should skin them out quickly after you kill them, from what I was shown.
Like tuna… or any southern california ocean fish… bleed ’em quick
Yeah
Throwing a heavy buzzbait for Musky will wear your ass out.
So will reeling on a 100 lb. tuna
Yeah, or grouper.
or shark
I used to catch them off the sunshine skyway (shark).
This dude had a pickup truck he rigged you with a jib off the back that had an electric winch. If you managed to get a big one tired out before it got under the bridge and broke you off, he’d haul it over the side. You wouldn’t have to walk the bastard down to the shore. Thing was a beater.
I did some Mako fishing on a fly rod… craziest shit ever.
I bet it was. Those guys are nasty.
Jump like you wouldn’t believe. 300 yards away from the boat in a half a second
You ever watch that dude “Spanish Fly”? He was badass.

Jose… sure have. I’m looking for that shark picture I have,..
When the bluefish are running off Hatteras, you just fish until your arms give out.
Yup! Then drink beer.
Weird how the tiniest little slice on a finger tip feels worse than one down to the bone.
Spray some Windex on it, you’ll be fine.
Pour some salt on it then soak it in vinegar . helps the healing process
True that, nice pull there, Buck
Picked up some more Gulp 1″ minnows and some mealworms today.
Knock ’em dead
Hopefully Saturday
Where you going and what for?
Hopefully Upper Pedlar, for trout.
Gonna have to teach you to buggy whip the air
Maybe someday. We fill the freezer though, so that’d just be “for the fun of it”.
Yea, it’s the natural progression of the sport part… not the food collecting portion. It’s like going from gun hunting to bow hunting. Just more challenging. It’s really like hunting fish with a feather
We do the same thing with the jigs, just underwater. We’re not just casting and reeling. Many times I’m casting at a fish I can see layin’. You have to know where they’ll be and how to present to them.
Much the same thing, yes.
The fly rod, to me, is a result of trying to mimic a bug touching on the surface. You don’t have the current to deal with until you’ve committed to the last one, from what I’ve seen. With the jigs, you have to work it too, just a different process. I used to have an old piece of shit fly rod that I’d play around with. Maybe someday. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not knocking it at all. The tarpon fly fishing in the mangroves looks like a blast.
I know you have streamers that resemble crayfish, ect. Probably more just placement with those, then it’s like jigging.
Not quite… you have to strip those things like nobodies business
Well yeah, after you drop it in, that’s where your action comes from. I’m sure you vary the retrieve for the desired effect. Slowing as you drop off a ledge, ect.
…and depending on what you’re trying to mimic with your streamer. Mice, minnow, snake, etc
Yeah, I understand exactly what you’re saying.
Of course it’s not for everyone… I get that. It’s certainly not always a high volume fish catcher… just a different kind of challenge
Well, we’re technically only allowed six per day, per person.
Yea, but you can CATCH as many as you want… just have to release them
It’s probably the one sport where my super aggressive nature is a curse more than anything. I guess I love it because I have to almost create a new persona just to be successful. Really relaxing
Crayfish, frogs
You don’t think there’s current on the surface that’s trying to drag your line and fly under?
Also, there’s dry flies (surface), wet flies (in the film) and nymphs and midges (under water sometime with weight)
Streamers you have to use a sinking line.
But trying to cast such a light piece of lure it’s what’s difficult… and not to smash it into the water thus scaring the fish off or looking unnatural
Also San Juan worms and egg patterns…
There’s also scuds which you have to roll along the bottom
It seems to be timing, with your wrist and elbow.
NO wrist action… that’ll jack up your whole back cast and create a tailing loop. Put a BUNCH of little knots in your line
It’s almost all shoulder with some elbow
See, with a baitcaster, you whip with your wrist at the back.
I use a really limber ultralite (with a light spinning reel), also, so I can sing it up under trees and whatnot without a lot of headroom or a long arc, if that makes sense.
I never could get the hang of a baitcaster… of course I’ve only tried it 3-4 times and never had anyone show me how. I always used a spincaster
I love throwing a heavy spoon at OBX, on a 8′ or 9′ rod, a ambassador 7000. It feels good, man. You can cast a fuckin’ mile.
I use smaller baitcasters for bass, with like 12lb line. You can really get behind it with two hands.
You don’t roll it forward at the beginning of your “front” cast?
No… you treat the rod as an extension of your arm. When you first learn a lot of instructors will tie the butt of the rod to your forearm so you can bend your wrist at all
A trout magnet jig head balances out with the body so the lure stays horizontal. You could tie one on your fly rod and catch fish. Many times you’re fishing with one hand on slack line and flippin’ at spots.
Of course, casting a fly is as much of a challenge as is getting the fish to bite. Not easy… like golf or chess… you may never perfect it.
Go see a vet. They’ll have you dewormed in no time.
I’ll just take a shot of Happy Jack’s, shit them out tomorrow.

Good straight shooting stuff from Doug today. Wish they’d end up w Guice.
Walmart has followed Dicks Sporting Goods age limit policy. Going to have to be 21 to purchase firearms and ammunition.
Walmart also quit selling AR-15s quite some time ago. Maybe after Sandy Hook.
I’ve not even seen a wal mart that sells any guns period , other than black powder , in a long time .
haven’t even seen a shotgun in a wal mart for years . not around here . you go to a gun shop or bass pro,
We had ARs, they still sell your average cheap Savage, low-end Remington, and Weatherby centerfire bolt guns, Marlin 336s and rimfire, various shotguns.
Must be a regional thing . I would never go to a Wal Mart to start with for a gun.
You have to look at them, they’re usually rejects.
Don’t know how they stayed in business after that.
wal mart ? they stay in business because they are cheaper than everywhere else and have most everything under one roof .
Sandy Hook was 2012. Walmart took the ARs off the shelf in 2015.
Thanks for googling it for me.
Maybe less Sandy Hook and more to do with people of Walmart

When’s the last time you were in a Walmart?
This afternoon
Me too, lol
I live near two super Walmarts (one is fancy) and have a Neighborhood Market up the street that I stop at for produce and whatever a bunch of times every week.
We have 4, and a Sam’s club, within 40 miles. All of them are Supercenters. The “fancy” one is down in the nicer area of Lynchburg. I like the one in Lexington.
Sam’s and Walmart in the same parking lot?
At the one by Liberty University, yes.
Apparently Walmart was the largest seller of guns in the US in 2015.
They sell guns with slight defects, well below MSRP. If you’re just a guy trying to hunt, but don’t really care about what you’re investing in, that’s their niche, IMO.
Considering you need to be 21 to by a beer I don;t think it’s a big deal to have to be 21 to buy a gun.
Most of us don’t think it’s a big deal either, flounder.
Good
I’ve seen kids turn 18 and go crazy buying different hunting rifles, then end up selling them because they’re broke, and these are “responsible” gun owners, not antisocial wack jobs like Cruz.
If you want to know who Mike McCartney is , the post has a very good article on him. Not what I had envisioned . Had a completely different idea of him than who he is . worth a read .
Me either. Still dont like his methods…

Heard on local TV that Cruz was trying to shoot at students fleeing the building, but the rounds he was firing wouldn’t penetrate the school’s impact windows.
Yup
Peeps are overrating a .223/5.56 here, as of late. You also should consider bullet design before condemning a particular caliber.
Yes. Most folks are clueless and just accept as fact that the “AR-15”, loosely defined as any semi-automatic rifle with a black stock, is some evil death machine that can bring down a building with a single shot.
I think perhaps the horse y’all are sitting on is a bit high.
I could say the same thing about those who hold the opposite belief.
Not our fault you rode in on a donkey….;)
No one thinks that. But…high marks for excellent hyperbole!
Clearly, the “building with a single shot” is hyperbole, captain obvious.
And I gave you high marks for it.
Glorifled .22
What bullet did you use for hunting, if you can remember?
223 is all I remember. Had to be super accurate to actually take anything down
It’s not really a powerful enough shell for hunting unless you’re talking something like rabbits.
If you can kill a human you can kill a deer. That and turkeys
Sure, it’ll kill a deer, but is it the best option?
For a small 12 year old it was
Also had an old Savage 30/30 that I used. Was a small rifle, fairly light, but way inaccurate. Probably due to the age and quality of the rifle. When you’re 12 you want an accurate weapon.
Right, and of course they were designed to kill humans.
Newsflash: All bullets are designed to kill things. That’s the nature of it.
Probably larger than a 55gr, with controlled expansion.

A Florida middle school teacher is accused of having a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old male student and sending him nude photos.
Stephanie Peterson, 26, was arrested Wednesday and charged with two counts of lewd or lascivious battery and one count of transmission of harmful materials to a minor, the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office reported.

Zataran’s with smoked sausage .
I use Zatarans in gumbo and jambalaya
Its pretty good . That’s what I fixed the jambalaya mix with sausage and kielbasa . Its easy and not time consuming .
Got to! Goes great in a crawfish boil, too.
Man.. I had them once. They had been frozen and IDK , they were not good . Tasted like dirt or mud . What I imagined mud tastes like anyway .
I picked all the corn out and whatever else was in there and ate that .
Oh no … you gotta get them live. Propane burner, gigantic pot, 50 lbs sack of crawfish, corn, potatoes, onions, sack of Zataran’s, couple handfulls of cayenne pepper….
That’s why then. A guy I know brought back a big frozen box of them from Louisiana. He worked on tug boats and had been down there . They weren’t good like I said .
I’ve had some frozen tails that weren’t too bad, but sometimes they are. A lot of them come from China now.
Go figure . A Chinese craw fish . You know that can’t be good .
Zataran’s is good stuff. It’s like the Old Bay of Louisiana.
So…..a .50 BMG is like a two liter?
it’s like a sword, take your arm clean off
It’s like a Wahoo

that’s not real. or has to be parody. “shot somebody with a coke can”? what?!?!
I’m assuming it’s parody
…and apparently we are wrong:

“A handgun [wound] is simply a stabbing with a bullet. It goes in like a nail.” With the high-velocity rounds of the AR-15, “it’s as if you shot somebody with a Coke can.” rol.st/2Esd8Hp #BanAssaultWeapons
2 days ago · Twitter Web Client · en
…but apparently it’s a quote from some so called “expert” or medical person
i don’t even…. i don’t know what to do with that. again, what? shot by a coke can?
maybe s/he is talking about how the bullet fragments into shards after entering the body? the remark seems comical (w/o context).
See the article in the link below
i still don;t get the “coke can” reference. yes, the article talked about light, high-velocity rounds. i guess a coke can is less dense than a nail?
I’m sure he’s referring to the size of the wound it creates
Dianne Feinstein said that? That’s very ignorant, even for her. Talk about clueless.
She is on her way out when her term ends .
She isn’t far enough to the left anymore for her peeps . That and she’s 84
She’ll win again
She’s badly trying explain how a 5.56mm round will tumble or bounce around inside a body doing greater damage than say 9mm fired from a handgun
the tumble is by design to create greater damage to enemy combatants to compensate for the smaller round than the 7.62mm rounds
…actually, if you read the article the quote was written by some “expert” that hadn’t even fired the weapon until a couple of months ago. What he was saying was the kinetic energy is transferred to the surrounding tissue causing it to expand and then slam back together.
that is true also
the higher the velocity of the round the greater the kinetic energy that can be transferred to the object it strikes
Obviously but this is a stretch.
NICE PUN!
.556
G’damn trauma surgeon. WTF does he know anyway.
I know right?
…and if you fire a hollow point from a 9mm into a body… you be fucked.
hollow point in any size is not good to be shot with
I want to know why zero people seem to care that far more people are getting shot and killed via inner city gang violence than in school shootings.
I think you know the answer to that
for the same reason you blame cops for people dying
like the dude was just “handling his business” with his ex-wife and the police had no right to get involved
that’s why the dude shot the policeman
so it’s okay to shoot a LEO when he intervenes when you are committing domestic violence
or all the guys in jail who applauded the killer of the Chicago police commander
Circle the wagons, Dianne……..you do know what a circle is, right?
I’m not saying that Lamar Jackson or any other QB should change positions, but why is it that they always talk about them switching to WR? The dude RAN for over 4,000 yards and scored 50 RUSHING TDs in his college career. He never caught a pass. If he was going to switch, wouldn’t you want him to be a RB?
Why can’t he be a long snapper?
He’s a quarterback, get over yourself.
He’s going to be a good pro QB, IMO.
Yep

Noone what are you hearing about the possible trade of Cravens
I’m setting the over/under on a Su’a trade at 1 pick, 5th round. We’re taking bets here at The Hog Sty. We’ll email you about where to send you money.
That sounds more likely. If we get the 2nd or 3rd discussed below? Damn that’d be awesome but probably wishful thinking.
it would be . I’ve already written the whole situation off as a failure . Love to wrong and get some return.
Well at least his issue isn’t how he plays. He’s got talent. The question is how much other teams downgrade his quitting episode and are willing to take a chance on him.
I’d say D_C has a pretty good deal in mind. Not SURE we’d get it but I’d take it… Maybe we switch 2nd round and get a 4th this year.
Fifth is probably all you can get for a guy who walked out on his previous team. If you get more, you’ve done some fine negotiating.
Conditional 6th or 7th based on number of snaps
All of this seems too low to me.
The word is out – he squats when he pees.
His name is Suzy… the word HAS been out
I don’t think we have any leverage to get something decent back for him. Teams know we don’t want him and the dude quit on his team. His value is in the crapper
That’s why I doubt we trade him for that. We’d keep him before letting him go for a 5th… mind you I may be of a different mind than Bruce
You’re probably right but if we keep him I have a hard time seeing him being accepted by his coaches and teammates. Might be worth trading him for a ham sammich just to get rid of the distraction
It sounds like my over/under was just about right.
i hope the redskins draft a d-lineman early.
Dilly Dilly!
and then, i hope they draft another football player with their next pick.
Instead of a curler. BRILLIANT!
NYT reporting that Hope Hicks is fixin’ to resign from the Trump administration. Big if true.

Look at you Doug Williams, asking for a 2nd rounder for a guy who didn’t play.
Trying to get back the third rounder.
I give them credit.
Him
You go Doug !!
Who are we talking about?
Suzy
That was my guess… we are asking for a second round pick for him? Or that’s a rumor?
We are talks with Denver according to Rapsheet.
Ahhh…CrapReport
Yeah… JP Finley re-tweeted it, it kinda looked like a confirmation.
Word is Denver really liked him coming out of college had a 1st round grade on him.
Whelp… now he has experience so 2 firsts and it’s a deal!
WHAT A BARGAIN!
Sorry you were gone
The update is that the Broncos and Skins are in talks for Su’a
Well wouldn’t that be something
let’s trade su’a for elway, straight-up.
Bruce would ruin Elway 😉
in this fantasy scenario,, bruce would be GONE, gone, gone.
Hence the little winky face
Lammey’s a tool but if he’s right on this and I’m the skins I’d jump at it. Cravens would probably be better off elsewhere too.
Broncos 2nd rounder is 4 picks before ours, too.
My guess: we swap 2nd rounders and get their 3rd rounder.
I’d take that.
Indeed
I’d take that in a heartbeat
For the record, Crappaport is Bruce Allen’s leak bitch.
He’s a douchebag – Dukes
How do they know that we’re coming for the all guns?
Don’t tell me that that tin foil crap actually works!
Do you ever talk about football or just grind on and on about liberal garbage?

I’m not allowed to comment on that 😉
I don’t want Talib in a trade from the broncos
Get a third and move on
Now Talib AND a third… hmmm….
The rumor is they may cut him anyway for cap reasons. Try and sign him for less then. If he goes elsewhere so be it. He’s good but 32 is getting old for a corner.
Yea… he’d be nothing more than a deal sweetener… should not be the main bargaining chip.
So I guess now the Dems and the GOP are gonna swap positions on gun’s. That’s cool.
whatever the gop is talking, they will not do it. there will never be any sensible gun laws enacted by a majority-republican anything. they’ve been tricked into seeing it as a slippery slope towards confiscation. aaaaahhhhn noooo!
bet you a blog dollar.
seeing it as a slippery slope towards confiscation.
________________
…and they’d be correct, because that is 100% the goal.
^^^^ see?
that’s perfect, steve. thanks.
It is 100% the goal, you’ve just been lied to about who’s goal it really is.
It’s not the Dems goal, it’s Wall Streets.
Or maybe, just maybe, taking practical steps on both sides is better than both sides digging theior heels in the sand and nothing ever getting done.
Look, your crappy parties are gonna have to do a mix up eventually on something, since the current alliances aren’t really working for either of ya.
Swapping positions on the 2nd amendment would actually make a heck of a lot of sense in the bigger picture.
the further question would be just what law would hold up to SC scrutiny.
As I’ve been saying, all that shit about tagging Cousins was a load of shit made-up by those seeking clicks, like Borio.
Yep something for the media to talk about and make a stink about.
Broncos now offer 1st for S’ua plus a F-Taged Kirk. (we’ed all do it in a minute)
those guys have to talk redskins for hours and hours every day. they’re gonna spout some ridiculous ish.
How do you know ? It could have been discussed .
agree it was probably blown way out of proportion but it nay have actually come from a legitimate place
Buck, you are missing the main point. I fucking know everything – about time you fucking accept that.
Well ok . That’s all you had to say .
it all required another team that wanted to get the deal done before Free Agency, and want it enough to prob give up a decent draft pick for it
or Kirk would want it. but that requires they don’t know what the other teams are offering and waiting on. it would help if he thought Denver was after AJ and the Jets were interested in trading for Foles, as examples; then he’s want to get this done with the Vikings before FA.
So your saying no?
No meaning yes.
Yes, No
Maybe.
Here you go, Buck. Better go buy all the wooden dowel you can.

IDK , wondering that myself .
My God, Trump sounds like a clueless moron when he pontificates.
this just now came to you?
No, but I’m listening to his Congressional gun debate right now, and it’s painful.
I thought it was an honest debate . Not painful for me .
Things you never expected to hear from a republican “I like taking the guns early.”
well i’m not hearing thoughts and prayers so you should be ecstatic. The fact there is a discussion and measures will be taken should please you unless you’re entire motivation is political .
If something useful comes out of it, great.
yes. Bump stocks will be banned , so there’s a start .
Maybe, but it wouldn’t stop shit in terms of shootings.
I agree . Its a starting point is the positive thing .
Of course not. The way to stop shootings in this country is (1) crack down hard on inner city gangs, most importantly, (2) identify the sickos like Cruz early and do something about them, (3) put defensive measures in place in schools – they don’t have to become Fort Knox, just a few common sense things like metal detectors, an armed security guard, and letting teachers arm themselves if they want pursuant to a training program, and (4) enforce existing crime laws to the maximum.
Big Brother Is Watching
Plus, raise the age to buy guns, ban AR-15s and all similar weapons designed to kill lots of people fast, ban high capacity magazines, and deport anyone who disagrees.
I keep telling you…an AR-15 isn’t anything special. It just looks like it. Having a black stock and a few neato styling cues are totally meaningless.
Newflash: all guns can kill people.
But these ones kill lots of people fast.
I thank God every day that he’s president right now instead of Hillary Clinton.
I would have probably voted for Kasich, but this guy is a clown.
He has great ideas for the country; he hurts himself quite a bit when he talks off script and when he tweets.
He’s got a lot of stupid ideas to, like the Border Wall.
Nearly every idea he has is stupid and dangerous.
The Border Wall was just low-hanging fruit.
On the contrary…he’s basically correct about all of his major programs.
No, he absolutely is NOT. Name one major program that you think he’s right on — and I mean something where he has talked in specifics. Other than increasing military spending.
He’s wrong on trade.
He’s wrong on climate change.
He’s wrong on Russia
He’s wrong on immigration
He’s wrong on taxes
He’s wrong on international relations generally
He’s wrong on health care
Etc.
Don’t worry as soon as he changes his position on anything his party will agree. That’s what they do.
I hope they build the wall. It’s a fabulous idea if only it could be funded (which is difficult, obviously).
You need a seawall in Houston more than a Border Wall that nobody in the Rio Grande Valley wants.
Sure . The guy that told us Hillary Clinton was the greatest thing since sliced bread everyday for a year , would have voted for Kasich . Right .
That was just to get under your skin.

depends on what assignment you have
generally traffic duty has the most sitting around
patrol guys are getting to be non-stop a lot of places because of the call volume
people on CAT or Warrant Teams are non-stop
Investigate guys have more sitting around thinking time try to solve cases
Warrant duty is the worst according to my relatives, everyone that has been shot at has been either serving warrants or going to a domestic violence calls
that’s why warrant serves they bring the force and DV calls lots of backup if available
a about a week ago we had one armed robber commit 3 robberies in a 5 mile stretch along SR54 in Pasco inside of 2 hours
it was like someone was filming a TV cop show with all the action going on
One dumb crook.
they did not catch him, he’s up to something like 7 armed robberies now
Okay, then I take it back.
He’s a smart crook.
may not be that dumb, you run a stretch of robberies boom boom boom and then you’re out. otherwise, you get all locals looking out for your M.O. and people looking out for it. instead, you get the Fuzz all swarming around the [7-eleven, bank, etc.] you were just at when you strike again. it’s actually prob not dumb at all, whether or not he (OR SHE) thought it out…
he even robbed the Subway next to where I live

No, but you probably can, though I think it would suck, probably.
You can make a suppressor out of a oil cooler…. sorry, off topic.
you can make a cannon out of a log, you can prob make a gun out of wood. but it might be a disposable.
I think it would suck too but I heard you can rig up a piece of wood somehow or other and give it the automatic effect . Not sure how that works . Not familiar with those guns at all
In other words you use the guns recoil action to make it fire faster than you could squeeze your finger . …I think . If that makes sense at all.
Yes.
I would think it would crack.
I looked it up and there were videos of it . Evidently it can be done.

President Trump to ban bump stocks via executive order .
The NYSE is ****ed!
No, that’s when you do a bump while trading stocks, different thing.
I don’t know what that means regarding all the ones already in circulation . It’s also my understanding you can make one out of a piece of wood.
Bump stocks are dangerous to use. Anyone who would try to make one on their own has a screw loose.
*turns off bandsaw, tip toes back to desk*
psssst, Mike…(simulates wiping sawdust off of shoulder)
Give us a few minutes to think up some bullshit.
It’s a start to some common sense things that can be done without infringing on anybody , the way I see it . Eighteen is too young to lawfully purchase one of these weapons in my opinion . That’s another popular thing that is being discussed . Came out of Trumps mouth , and I agree with it .
I think we should raise the voting age to 25. the exception being, if you’re about to be deployed to a war zone, you get to vote as a perk of serving your country.
It’d also be wise to raise the drinking age, too, while we’re at it.
See, that’s how it starts. Libs complain, Conservatives pass laws to restrict, Libs complain.
Make sure to legalize weed while you’re at it.
Terrible idea.
It’s a great idea and you know it.
to 25? hahahahahaa. that’s funny, accidentally.
NANANANANANANANANANANANA!
I’m okay with raising the age to lawfully purchase a firearm to 21, but if that’s the case, it should be for all firearms, because, contrary to what the gun lobby thinks, there’s no such thing as a civilian “assault weapon”, as I’ve said here many times. It should be an all or nothing thing.
It should be “all”. Kid turns 18, starts wasting his insurance, college, gas, light bill money on guns… I’ve seen it a hundred times.

Said that he was happy with Doc, sees some upside in his future. Crowder had a down year in their estimation, and they need someone else on the outside to scare defenses.
Said less specifics on RB’s, but indicated a love of Chris Thompson and his skill set.

eventually, one of them will land the killer blow. i just know it.
Locally a lot of sheriff and police depts have no pursuit policies due to the huge risk to the public (i.e. huge insurance liability for the government) so if you take off at a high rate of speed they discontinue pursuit
so this week guy runs stop sign, police turn on their lights, guy takes off, police stop pursuit after one block
guy crashes his car about a mile away and dies
family all upset at police for “making him flee” and “killing him”
really WTF?
in part they also do it, because if you get in a high speed chase, there’s a high probably you’re going to beat the **** out of whomever you are chasing when you are done (at least treat them super rough). it’s human nature.
Which is weird because, let’s be honest…a pursuit is the highlight of an otherwise boring year.

If he took off and was going 85 when he crashed, then it could have been less than 60 seconds and boom.
they got a car crash call only a couple of minutes later which fits your timeline
fleeing from cops for running a stop sign…
…how much weed/meth/illegal firearms/illegal animals were in the car?
Animals……a fuck ton of animals.
Florida so it was full of Cobras Which will just add to the greatness of Florida.
As if it needed any MORE help…………*smirk
they should make the family pay for the damaged stop sign.
his did not run over stop sign, just did not stop for it
he crashed into a tree and died
Bill the family for the tree doctor that had to come out to the scene.
put a roll of electrical tape on it, and it’ll heal.
That’s a $175 service call.

I think I would fire off a shot of scotch a couple of times a day if I was a teacher.
Scotch?
You must be teaching college
I’d most likely be a chemistry/physics teacher (I interviewed at a couple of teaching colleges after my frosh year to transfer to their STEM Teacher programs… one was private, and I would have had to teach at a private school in their system for X years afterward to have my tuition paid for… the upshot was that, to get the STEM accrediation?… 168 credit hours… for a BS… not an MS… a BS) Point being, it’d prob make my own small batch scotch, heck, maybe have it be Sr. capstone laboratory.
One of my college history professors was pushing me to change from a media degree to one in history & go into teaching. Another professor at one point tried to urge me to go into law that same year.

If the skins get back Brown, and sing a big name DT like Poe, you assume no more DT in 1st round right?
I think they still go Edmunds if he is there, but less probable than if not sign Brown, then maybe WR becomes more probable, but it certainly helps BPA; but I don’t think Poe is the kind of FA they sign here.
I’m thinking we sign 2-3 dudes in FA not on the team already. My guess is a WR, DT, and maybe a RB.

I hate to say this but we got a lot of dumb fucking fans of this team

And I guess “fans” is used loosely, as you could have fans of any team vote.
one does not need to be informed to be fanatic.
generally the dumber a person is the more fanatic there are
poignant observation. i’ll just leave it there.
I would argue the dumber they are the more prone they are to certain facets of fanaticism, but certain obsessive components of it, I don’t think, are absent in smart people, cognitive errors are pretty prevalent through out society, even in academia. focus and fanaticism are there, and there’s a pretty big problem with peer review. lots of fake, faulty, and biased reviews as you might expect if you really think about the incentives involved. it’s just so much more nuanced that the masses rarely get to get behind a Team unless it gets politically publicized.
exactly, noon. Just look at all our blogger friends! 🙂
DPoe is still only 27

Dalton High School was evacuated after a report of gunfire inside the building, which is about 91 miles northwest of downtown Atlanta.
A teacher who was barricaded inside a North Georgia high school Wednesday has been taken into custody, police said.
Armed teacher… I’m just saying
Never happens in the cities.
arm them with bear spray
so… let’s just imagine we arm all (or 20% of) teachers. are the chances of this teacher thwarting a school mass murder greater or less than the chances of a student stealing that gun and killing someone?
… or the teacher just losing his or her shit and shooting one or more students?
I’d say it’s more likely (than thwarting a mass shooting) that the teacher kills someone accidentally or in a mental breakdown; and that’s partly due to just how many teachers there are across the country and playing the population-level statistics for error. and… how low the % chances are for a mass shooting incident, on a national level.
Had a serious discussion about this subject the other day amongst a group of 20 or so other retired or separated military officers, including a couple whose bios would contain mostly blacked-out lines. The general opinions of the group were that (1) forcing teachers to be armed is dumb, (2) most teachers would want no part of it, (3) the few that do should be allowed to do it pending a background check and attending a training program, (4) the threat alone would serve as a deterrent even if only a few were actually armed, and (5) it might just save a few lives.
so…. for or against arming teachers?
The group was “for”, with the proviso that they can pass a background check and a real training program similar to what airline pilots have to go through.
I mean, if you are going to arm teachers, it almost has to be with (generally) sub-lethal stuff like sprays, tasers, and bean bag guns or whatever.
“Rev. Billy Graham is having a memorial viewing at the U.S. Capitol. Is that appropriate for a religious leader?”
———————
NO!
Lighten up Francis . Its not hurting anybody .
Not any more.
Constitution schmonstitution
I don’t see it as a constitutional issue. It’s just the corpse of a closet anti-Semite.
core…. corps …. corpse.
well, it would be a constitutional issue if he rises up out of that coffin and declares himself the Sovereign
that honor is reserved, until now, for presidents, generals, top fbi guys, etc…. not preachers.
And Rosa Parks, a couple of capitol police officers, and Pierre L’Enfant.
all entirely appropriate.
would you have liked to have seen L Ron Hubbard so honored? why not? reverend moon?
Those two guys are quacks; Graham isn’t.
steve,
that is a PERFECT response.
those crazy guys are quacks, but your crazy guy isn’t? just step back for a moment and realize how silly your comment is.
He’s not my guy; I’ve literally never listened to him preach, ever. But comparing a nationally respected Christian preacher to a science fiction writer who had to fight with the IRS for 20 years to get his church called an official non-profit church, and the guy behind the moonies – that’s silly. Billy Graham has advised and prayed with a string of presidents. That’s the opposite of Hubbard and/or Moon.
“moonies”?! how insulting!
it all looks like EXACTLY the same amount of ridiculous to a proud american like me. remember, non-christians are americans, too.
It’s totally different in every way. Moon even went to jail, and many people thought his church was a cult. Many more think Scientology is a cult. Billy Graham is a mainstream Christian – who, again, has advised most of the recent presidents except Obama (I think).
i don;t give a shit who he advised. a religious figure should not be offered the same national memorial reverence as important american figures.
what about pat robertson or jesse jackson? how about reverend sharpton? david koresh?
just don’t go there.
there is is a reason jefferson insisted on that whole separation of church and state thing. some americans don’t like your church. but, we’re still americans.
Koresh was a murderer and a serial rapist, at a minimum, and probably a bunch of other crimes, too. Not sure how you think he’s an appropriate name to throw out there.
Pat Robertson doesn’t have the stature as does Graham. Graham has been a White House fixture for decades. Robertson isn’t; he’s just on TV. Jesse is a civil rights leader, to me, as is Al; that’s a different discussion. If you call them preachers, though, a democratic president with an interest in civil rights would absolutely do it, and I’d be okay with that even though I don’t like either one of them.
As far as the founding fathers go: it’s just a fact that this country was founded on judeo-christian values. Not sure why anyone tries to run from that. Let’s just get rid of the reference to God on the dollar bill, too, for goodness’ sake.
steve,
you are completely (intentionally?) missing the point.
i do not want ANY religious figure honored in the same way we, america, have honored past presidents and so forth.
If you can name any other American religious leader with the standing, profile, or influence of Graham, I’m all ears. I doubt there are any, of any faith.
I’m 100% fine with honoring Graham in this way. The country will survive.
And Davis Koresh isn’t a religious leader.
steve,
are you being obtuse? is it intentional. i do not want any religious figure honored in this way.
and,, OF COURSE david koresh is a religious leader. just because you think his religion is dumb, does not make it any less valid than yours.
Surprised that MLK didn’t get such an honor. Considering.
Had he died recently, he probably would, but back then, pretty controversial, a more racist society, and it would’ve caused some people to do bad things.
if you listen to MLK, he’s got the same cadence while preaching that Graham had;
I’ve listened to most of MLK’s speeches, at least the ones that are recorded.
reverend. reverend martin luther king. preachers can be, should be, excellent speakers.
For the record, there’s a difference between the honor presidents and generals get, which is called “lying in state”, and what Rosa Parks and Billy Graham got, which is just an honorary viewing. There’s a name for it; can’t remember.
steve,
i did not appreciate the difference. thanks.
still, i do not like the idea of a preacher of this or that religion being so honored.
Graham is the first religious leader to have a viewing at the Capitol, but I’m fine with it. He was sort of the unofficial national preacher, if you will, for many years. The first amendment isn’t being harmed by this – he’s not lying in state, as would a president and it’s just a one day viewing so the public can pay their respect.

BREAKING: Jets Expected To Release DE Muhammad Wilkerson http://bit.ly/2sZxgzm
Dang beaten to the post.
@AdamSchefter
Jets expected to release Mo Wilkerson today, per league source. Another veteran hits the market.
He’s 28. Does he have 3+ years left in him?
Maybe not 3+ but I bet he has at least 2.
No thanks. Head case.
Headed out early. Too many hotties walking around with their girls floppin.
Peas.
For everybody local , treat yourself this summer . Go to Tangier island and get some crab cakes / soft crabs . You will never eat a better one anywhere . Its a fun day as well. Unique .
That’s the island that’s about to fall into the bay in the next 20 years right?
Yeah , I think . It could be Smith island that they are predicting that to happen , but it’s not far from Tangier . I think for northern Va , there is a boat out of Crisfield Md that takes you to Tangier . For people south its out of Reedville Va. Very cool day trip.
I think it was both that I heard about Smith Island has that cake they are known for.
Could be . I was under the impression nobody lived on Smith island anymore . Its history , nobody there . I would have to look that up , I could be wrong . Tangier is known for their crabbing industry and their crab cakes . They are out of this world delicious .
Smith Island, population in 2010, 276. Granted I was once driving through a small town in Wyoming and was told the town population sign was no longer correct because the guy who’s job was to change the sign had died.
Ha . I think Smith island is about gone .
those islands have three distinct geological problems. subsidence, erosion and sea-level rise.
Always wanted to go there. Don’t they speak in some old English almost mixed with some North Carolina accent?
Yeah , its kind a neat to listen too. The whole place is unique . Its on you tube like everything else .
Thought that was Smith Island? In the Chesapeake Bay.

From below..you can go into any pizza place and buy a ball of dough for like 2-3 bucks. I’ve done it a lot of times.
I asked for dough, they called the cops…..
I’ve never once heard of someone doing that. Baller move.
Yeah….they look at you funny…then they come out with a ball of dough… a lot of times they don’t know how to ring it up….just say ” it’s like 2 or 3 bucks” then they ring it up. No mess at home….works great. I like the Don Pepino’s sauce…..mmmmmmmmmmm
totally baller, broh

@JosinaAnderson
I’m told the #Redskins have interest in re-signing LB Zach Brown and CB Bashaud Breeland. One team source told me, “obviously it has to be at the right price.” My understanding is that Brown wants to be compensated “like a top 3 ILB.” Brown led the league in tackles through Wk14.
Well they should lock those dudes up before FA if they can.
If they can, yes. I’d love to have both back if neither gets a big deal. But if both want 10 + a year, then you wait it out.
He did lead the league in tackles but he did it sometimes by running past slower redskin defenders and LBers . Plays that should have been made by a closer defender . I don’t know , its a catch 22, he still made the plays .
I thought he exposed our lack of speed and athleticism , when he showed up. He is fast on game day . IDK why he struggles in coverage .
i think it’s “see ball. tackle player with ball.” it’s probably hard to make a guy like that think about covering a receiver.
Could be . He made a pile of tackles that’s all I know . No need to overthink the situation . try to work out a fair deal to both sides .
buck,
did you ever watch “dexter”? wonderful, awful, horrible, fun show…. anyway, his sister had a really foul mouth. when there was a lot of something, she’d call it a “shit ton”. when there was a really, really, really lot of something, she’d call it a “fuck ton”. zach made a fuck ton of tackles last year.
He played hurt too . I don’t question his toughness or desire .
jeez, i’d hope we’d have interest in zach “tackle-machine” brown. the guy was awesome last year.
this isn’t the perfect metric, but the avg cap hits in 2018 of the top 3 would be $12.7 mil
total cash: $10 million avg
He’s not even close to being a top 3 ILB.
Well tickets for Hamilton went on sale today…. it broke the phone system at Kennedy Center I’m told.
They went fast in Denver as well.
didn’t realize Alexander was still that popular
I’ve always been a Burr man myself.
I generally make my own pizza these days
Publix has a really good pre-made thin pizza crust (forget the Brand name)
just put my pizza stone in the oven on 450 and after it heats up
8 minutes later pizza is done
have done red pizzas, white pizzas
I do a mean white pizza with olive oil, caramelized onion, garlic, bacon, clams and a blend of mozzarella, parm and Romano cheeses
I do a lot of home made pizza’s as well. What I really like adding on is just globs of ricotta cheese as well as your normal cheeses.
Trader Joes has a pretty good whole wheat pizza dough
I like TJ’s dough, but my wife can’t stand it.
that’s the other reason for Ledo’s for me: it’s literally the closest pizza joint to my home (including the PJs, Dom, PH, etc) but my wife doesn’t care for it, and they don’t have fake cheese. so when we do “splurge” for pizza it’s zPizza. Pizza the Hut is experimenting with the fake cheese in the UK, I believe.
Fake cheese?
Yuck
probably a cheese like product made from pea protein
I’ve had tastes of it a few times, not my thing. I usually get the American at zPizza. The Berkeley is the hippie fake cheese one, though I think you can get it on any of their Pizzas.
remember bertucci’s? they used to (and maybe still do) sell a glob of pizza dough for $4 or $5. bring it home, shape it, doctor it it up any way you like….
damn…. i have a weird craving for pizza all of a sudden.
DiGiorno trolling Papa John’s about losing its NFL sponsorship
Their product has become shit, they deserve it.
awful. it was pretty good at one time for a chain store
Yes, early on, like 15 years back they were easily the best.
Yeah
Gives me a gnarly stomach within a few hours
It’s like they started putting extra salt in the dough and sauce.
They came out with the pan style pizza and its not good . Crust is not good.
100% of my pizza business has gone to Papa John’s since the anthem convtroversy.
You must have a better store than we do.
I’m sure it’s roughly the same as their other stores. That wasn’t why I did it.
That’s dedication right there. What I hear at home is “Dad, this pizza is nasty” “Honey, they screwed up the order again”, ect.
When I heard, “can we order pizza tongiht”, Papa John’s was the answer. Take it or leave it. They’ve never messed up my order.
Lol, “the works” used to be a good pizza.
sorry about that, steve.
Ledo has been mocking them for months. Which is fine, Ledo is damn good pizza.
I miss Ledo’s. Pizza options aren’t as good in Denver. At least near where I live.
so…. you report your location when discussing pizza, but not when discussing weather!?
???
He thinks you’re RumpledSkinFan, throw a cookie at him and pay him no mind.
there were some people up here recently discussing the weather they were having – w/o saying where they lived. sorry, i thought you were among them. i guess that’s a generic avatar. ok, so, let me enter “denver” for skinswest into my spreadsheet.
No worries. Sunny and 50’s.
how much snow do you get at your house a year?
Depends on the year. Not much so far – maybe a foot spread out over 3-4 storms. We do get some big ones on occasion. Shortly after we moved here in 2002 we got hit with over 3ft from one storm. That was nuts.
The key to any good pizza is finding a way to do some kind of local spin, nothing crazy but little things here and there.
I have to believe that if someone in Denver made a pizza where the dough was made using water from the melted snow off the rockies and topped with bull testicles, it would be amazing.
Grizzly testicles for the not-faint of heart. Paired with a good local microbrew of course.
And just pounds of weed baked into a stuffed crust
Not if you don’t want to be hungry again soon after.
It is good pizza, but IMO they are not the same price points.
It’s like a guy looking at new entry level Honda Accord LX and saying, you know… I’ve got a brand new Acura TLX in the back lot… it’s a great car. Not sure then who serves the NSX pizza, but hopefully this makes sense.
…saw one (TLX) at the dealer in a really cool blue, with red interior (you’d think that wouldn’t work… but…). But I like being married, so… stuck with the oil change and rolled out. (because it’s free, I wouldn’t take the car to a dealer for an oil change unless it was a perk)
But do you REALLY like it……
I prefer my Acuras with extra sauce, yes.
Lol, you totally changed what you were going to say.
Oh no question Papa Johns a medium is $6, Ledo is I think $10.
If you could have a PJs pizza for $14 or a similar $7-8 DiGiorno from Amazon Fresh within 2 hours but still frozen, which is the better deal? if you have guests, would you feel uncomfortable providing the DiGiorno rather than one of the moderately priced delivery places?
Draft Day Dream Scenario
Bills trade us #20, #21 for #13
an we take De’Ron Payne and Marcell Ateman
the way that happens is if the QB they want is still there AND Arizona might want that same QB. but even then if I am Buffalo, I would offer one of those picks and a 2019 instead of both #1s this year. And I think I’d still take that. especially if there were 4-5 guys on the board I could live with.
If we could still get Payne there plus additional picks then I’m all for it.
Ateman will be available later. We might be able to get Payne and Denzel Ward.
Roquan Smith would do well to come in 10-15 lbs heavier and still rock the metrics
If he comes in somewhere in the low 220s, prob can still find a place for him (Shazier/T Smith), but it would be nice if he could maintain quickness at about 235-240. Or, he’d just be the nickel LB?
https://twitter.com/dlolley_pgh/status/968890169414815744
So the “trade Cravens for Bryant” crowd can give up the dream.
Probably get more out of Craven’s anyway. I don’t know the hype for Bryant. His stats aren’t that impressive. He’s not reliable in deep routes. A year of suspension. Cancer in the locker room. I mean, what am I missing here?

I’d just get it 50% cheaper on Amazon. They have everything.
Do they sell guns on Amazon?
No
I mean I know they sell bows and some other arms.
Probably the closest thing you could do is have it on Amazon Marketplace but it would be delivered to a (local) licensed dealer who would work with you on the permit whatnot, and you’d have to pick it up from that dealer. I believe that’s how it would work also on eBay. It has to go “through” a licensed dealer first. But I’ve not ever done it, obviously.
It’d be like how TireRack works.
His 120mm turned out to be a cardboard tube, painted olive drab.
I got a 120mm mortar on Amazon but the S&H was outlandish
Thank God I have Prime!
…and I THINK the FedEx guys GIVE ME the evil eye when they hoof bags of fertilizer up my driveway from Amazon… what’s THAT got to be like?
Given the story about how FedEx has some kind of under the table deal with gun manufactures for shipping?
Never cared for Tom Brokaw save for once, maybe around ’87 (?) when Ted Bundy was executed via the electric chair. It was a closing comment as Brokaw cited the execution and some local DJ who asked all of his listening audience to turn off all household appliances at the time of the execution – as Brokaw cracked a smile – so the prison could, “…have a little more juice.”
But all in all he’s a douche.
But a easy person to do an impression of.
Yeah, swallow your tongue while talking.
and extend any “a” “oh” or “ah” sounds and garble them a bit at the end.
The thing that I hated most about Jon Steward was how he seemed to think he was an actual journalist delivering real news as opposed to being some hack comic.
there was this hilarious poll a few years ago illustrating how people who watched jon stewart’s show were more informed about politics than people who watched fox news.
Because we all know polls are always right.
– POTUS
Technically in this case it would be more of a test, then a poll.
In any case, Mo Raca who started out on the daily show did end up going into being a real news reporter after.
Rocca never did anything for me.
Lotta personalities emerged out of the Daily Show to go on and end being all over the damn place.
One might say, there’s a Jon Stewart coaching tree.
No question about it. Stweart’s comedy tree is probably only rivaled with Sid Caesar. But you can also throw James L Brooks into the conversation.
We’re going to see Trevor Noah on Saturday. Looking forward to it.
I’m not as big of a Noah fan, I feel like he’s still trying to figure himself out a bit when I watch Daily Show clips.
I agree actually. The Daily Show used to be must watch for me – but no more. I still watch occasionally though. I like Noah but it’s not the same. My GF and mother have both read his autobiography and raved about it.
Aasif Mandvi, dude straight cracked me up.
He was clear about that he was not a journalist. He did though, come from a place of an informed opinion and certainly had an impact on journalists, journalism and providing an audience information where the news was not.
What place is that ?
William and Marry?
A couple friends I still have that I went to HS with graduated from W and M . They hate Stewart because of it and his politics . Kind of funny when they start in on it . Usually after a few beers . Its not far from me.

Two-round mock has us taking Roquan and Harrison Phillips (Vea went at #9). That would be a pretty nice start.

I’d be fine with that.
I kinda think we need 1 guy on defense 1 on offense in the first 2 picks we have.
I can see doing that, but in this case value probably trumps.
I’m going to be bitterly disappointed if the Redskins don’t figure out a way to get one of Barkley/Guice/Jones/Michael/Penny.
I don’t think the Skins take Roquan over Edmunds, but maybe Edmunds and Vea go top 10
In this mock he went #8.

Jon Stewart was awful in every way.
your declaration of his awfulness is actually an endorsement.
No, it shows I’m smart enough to see through his crap.
you are accidentally great at being ironic!
I’m great at alot of things; calling Jon Stewart awful and crap isn’t irony. It’s the truth. I rank him behind only Stephen Colbert on the list of terrible late night hosts.
Late night TV used to be great back in the Leno – Conan – Letterman days. Now, it’s a sad shell of itself.
Stewart was the Leno-Conan-Letterman days.
But he’s awful.
Letterman, for example, is another flaming hollywood liberal, but he was hilarious and he didn’t beat you over the head with it.
Letterman’s from the midwest, and I think moved back to Indiana.
well, like i said, it was accidental. you don’t even know you’re doing it. that’s the funny part.
I get it, walter, believe me. I’m not welcome to watch Colbert / Stewart / Noah, and if people like me despise them, it makes the smarmy liberal crowd giggle.
He was funny in “Big Daddy” with Adam Sandler.

the interesting things will be to see what the Giants, Colts, Dolphins and Bengals do with respect to QB
Gut tells me Phins and Bengals don’t do anything.
Browns, Gints, Jets, area all going QB (if they don’t get Kirk or someone real good in FA)
Ginas will be interesting.
Hopefully they all go QB and push other position players down to 13.

There are so many of these Hollywood types to me that are so personally repulsive that I have a hard time watching movies anymore.
As long as Dunkirk wins for Sound Editing and Film Score and Blade Runner 2049 wins for cinematography, I am happy.

Amen, and the Oscars are the worst of the bunch. A bunch of hoty-toty art movies nobody watches or cares about made by political justice crusaders who generally have no ability to relate to society.

Exactly. When I think of Dick’s I think of outdoor sportsmen. Mainly camping, hunting, fishing. So in that regard I would think it would hurt more than help… but that’s just a personal perception. Again… their stock is down significantly over the last 1-5 years.
–
personal perception is funny like that, because I look at Dicks as the opposite, to me it’s definitively sub-urban where you send a mom to get a kid soccer shin pads, if I needed the kind of gear you are talking I’d probably go to something more like an REI or a Bass Pro Shop.
Yea, never really had a Bass Pro Shops or REI nearby… maybe that’s the reason for the perception.
The one near me has a Field & Stream store attached to Dick’s, and it’s really one massive connected building, so you go to the Dick’s side for baseball gloves and to the Field & Stream side for camping and hunting equipment.
I’ve still not gone into the one in D.C., So no clue what their sales are geared towards. I’d be willing to guess they don’t sell any firearms.
I’ve never even been in the Field & Stream side, because I normally buy ammo at Walmart since it’s cheaper, and I go to the local gun shop for gun purchases (which I don’t buy very often) and for gun repairs, etc, and I’m not much of a camper.

Malls and physical stores are shuttering quickly due to young people not going to them
we have three malls near us which are thriving
key traits
open air, not enclosed (which for FL I find crazy)
lots of places to eat
entertainment places like movie, gaming
fewer stores but trendy ones for younger crowd
free wi-fi and charging stations
My local mall is one of the most successful malls in the country as measured by sales per square foot, and it just underwent a massive expansion.
That shopping plaza/town hall trend is highly dependent on people having cars. A thing the latest generation of age legal drivers appear to not be all that into.
Malls though, might be seeing a comeback a developers move to redefine what a mall is. Which looks to be less centered on shopping choices and more about services and things to experience.
I’d have to dig it up, read something a while ago about a European outfit moving into the US market to invest in malls.
Most of what I read points that way too, saw something a few years back that suggested that if more than 1 traditional mall in each metro area survives the next generation it will be an anomaly, that only the super high end, major ones like Tyson’s or something of that ilk will remain.
that was my obtuse point, the mall is more of an entertainment and services place now versus shopping
unless you live where Steve lives where the average age of everyone must be around 60
The reason that mall is so successful is actually because it has such a large number of of young people supporting it.
if young people are there then the focus is on more than shopping
That isn’t correct in this case. It happens to be in a primo location.

Lets see what he runs
Yeah, we are chock-full of 4.6 dudes.
I think there are other qualities more important than 40 time for RBs. The NFL is littered with RBs who can go faster than that, but aren’t good, whereas there are HOF RBs who weren’t fast. If I were a team looking for a RB in the draft, 40 time wouldn’t be a huge consideration as long as it wasn’t a hugely slow number.
That’s all well and good and I agree there are a lot of factors to being successful but I want that speed. I want a RB who can take one to the hizzy from our own goal line. I want the whole package but I want that blazing speed.
Yeah, speed is a bonus but I’d put it behind vision, agility, power, and pass catching ability.
RB 40 times don’t me a ton, IMO.
Disagree
We have a bunch of plodding slower guys
Le’veon Bell ran a 4.6. Just sayin’.

If Dick’s wants to harm their business, that’s their right. I’ll stop shopping there as a result of this, for sure.
They’ve already been shutting down stores at a pretty good rate.
…at least the few that I know of anyway
The one near me has to be hurting, because there are hardly ever a significant number of cars in the parking lot.
The one here sells a shit ton of Golf apparel and gear
Saw that one… was surprised to see it.
My grandfather sold golf clubs at Dick’s part time after he retired from owning his own pawn shot / jewelry shop / sporting goods store.
Also my grandfathers name was Dick.
The 3 I know of have closed in the last 3 years.
So Dick’s is shrinking?
Millennials don’t go to physical stores
It’s not going to harm their business.
Those weapons, and things like, t-ball gear…do not belong under the same roof.
Of course it will harm their business. That’s obvious. They no longer sell a product that people want and will now go somewhere else to buy. And yes, it’s perfectly fine to sell firearms in a sporting goods store.
I disagree.
And foresee putting safety ahead of rifle sales as being good for their bottom line.
I’m going to boycott them now because of their silliness and lack of understanding of the situation. The only safety issue is the one created by the anti-gun lobby.
I’m sure there will folks like Steve who stop shopping there, and others who will shop there when they might have gone somewhere else because of it.
I doubt that.
I can’t see people STARTING to shop at Dicks because they raised the gun age. Maybe a handful… but I can’t see anything meaningful.
I don’t think it will help with gun owners, obviously they will mostly be against the move. But that’s only 25% of the country.
Exactly. When I think of Dick’s I think of outdoor sportsmen. Mainly camping, hunting, fishing. So in that regard I would think it would hurt more than help… but that’s just a personal perception. Again… their stock is down significantly over the last 1-5 years.
how many people are buying their guns from dick’s, anyway?
I’d bet it’s a large portion of their business.
Don’t look at me. Who’s got the price I’m willing to pay and not drive all that far to get it.
My spending isn’t moved by these things. Really all my dollars care about is buying American when and wherever I can.
Their share price is rising.
Their business seems to be hurting.
Is anyone competing with Amazon?
The Nile?
The other local sporting goods place, Academy Sports, appears to be trouncing Dick’s.
Really? It’s down about 20 points over the last year.
So clearly they were not doing something right over the last year even though they were selling whatever guns they are now not going to sell. btw I’ve got no clue what they are actually taking on/off the market, haven’t been into a Dick’s in years.
anytime i go to dick’s for anything – balls, shoes, clothes, tape, anything…. i seem to leave disappointed.
That would probably contribute to their abysmal performance over the last 5 years
Not sure where Scamp gets this we never trade back in the first bit. 2x in the last 7 drafts we’ve done it and a 3rd time we traded back in the 2nd when we didn’t have a 1st round pick.
2016 Skins traded back 1 spot from 21 to 22.
2014 Skins had no 1st round pick traded No. 34 pick to Dallas. in exchange for Dallas’ second and third round selections
2011 Skins traded pick #10 to Jags for #16 Jags picked Blaine we got Ryan Kerrigan.
Now, you could look at those trades and say we may have lost each of them.
We certainly won the 2011 one. Guess I wouldn’t remember trading back one spot. 2014 doesn’t fit my explanation does it?
I only mention it because it was our top pick.
Sure… no biggie… guess I mistakenly thought we didn’t trade back in the high rounds a lot.
They were real busy in 2011:
10 for 16 & 49
49 for 53& 152
53 for 62 & 127
62 for 79, 146, 217
Then traded for 105 & 178 for 127 144 and 152
So, basically off the 1st trade back from 10-16 they ended up with,
16- Kerrigan
79- Hankerson
105- Helu
146- Gomes
155- Paul
178- Robinson
217- Hurt
I wish they’d stop trading back in round 1.

One of these qbs will be there
Late teens would be as far as I’d want to move back. Heard a draft guy say there are only like 13-15 guys who have a “first round grade”. Lot of good football players but only that many sure things. The 4 QBs being the most risky, so yeah….we have a shot at a plug and play guy if we move back a little bit.
We rarely, if ever, move back in the first. I would suspect this year to be no different

Packers & Aaron Rodgers Making Progress On Contract Extension http://bit.ly/2FbEghm #Packers
Not yet!!!

they’ll cleverly tag him, and tag him, then eventually be forced to cut him…
in that scenario he’d be 38 when they cut him (he’s under contract for 2018 and 19)
BRILLIANT!
There is a reasonable possibility that some team could fall in love with Lamar Jackson and try to move up to 13 to get him. Some guys really like him. Worry about his size-durability, but not about his accuracy. Other guys pan him. But nonetheless, what matters is what GMs think.
If you’re in a situation where you are desperate for offense, I could see making the move, he’s boom or bust.
…or if you’re a team that is better than average and see your window opening in the next year or 2 but need a QB you move up

Under the radar good frozen pizza, the “circle” store brand from Shoppers.
their supreme ultra thin crust is my go-to, but it’s merely “good” in relative terms… frozen thin crust pizza
It’s kinda like my diet Coke. I pretend that it’s helping, but it probably isn’t.
now… they have these bistro/bar… forget what the name is, pizzas that are LOADED with cheese and meat and those will put you on your ace. now… it says something when I SAY TO MY WIFE after eating one of those … “I can’t do that again…” you can feel the lard in your veins.
When it comes to frozen pizza, good is a big win.
I don’t know what it is, but I mistakenly bought the Freschetta gluten-free pizza a couple of times, and it’s definitely different, and while I was eating it, it was OK, but later, I craved more and more of it. like they replaced the gluten with cocaine.
the kind with the cocaine-infused crust costs a lot more.
Especially if it’s organic cocaine
in college, back in the 1800s, i could buy a geno’s or tostino’s pepperoni frozen pizza for a dollar. it was fine. not anywhere near great, but it was a dollar, and i was in college. it sufficed.
Late round forgotten CB:
Chris Jones (injured most of the season)
Mighty mite from VaTech, Stroman.
Chris Jones is prob a Day 2 CB if not injured. Maybe a day 1 if Pelini stays at Neb.
Our luck ran out on that with the squandering of Fuller, they changed dealers, we will lose.
Jones prob hurt his draft stock by trying to come back. It wouldn’t be a Fuller risk. We’re prob talking one of the 7th rounders.
there is some noise about VT’s other Edmund’s, Tremaine’s brother was an injured CB with some promise too.
Terrell is a safety, don’t let anyone tell you different.
We hit on Fuller, hopefully hit on Moreau, at some point…..Lady luck bails out.
i hope we draft abc d-lineman, then xyz o-lineman.

Apropos of nothing, WaPo recently did a blind taste test of Papa John’s, Domino’s and Pizza Hut. Papa John’s won. Pizza Hut finished last
All 3 are bad pizza. Only really food if you are drunk.
That’s like a blind taste of turds.
There is no winner. Just a matter of which one tastes less shitty.
even bad pizza is still a pretty good time. it is, as someone claimed, (because of the ingredients and human biology) probably the most addictive food on the planet. we cannot help ourselves because it is to us what fresh impala steak is to the lion.
I mean, take two Totino’s party pizzas, put a layer of sauce and cheese between them, flip them facing each other, and you’ve got ghetto Chicago style. and people do it.
(eye roll)……..you have no idea how far beneath me that is…..I am all things………whatever your preference, mine is far superior……..
I like 7-11 Pizza!
I would rather drink a glass of joint compound.
probably would keep the pizza grease out of your blood stream.
of those, by far the most “Italian” is pizza hut. much more Italian seasoning. Papa Johns if the most vanilla American (kind of like the “Yankee” chili award), and Domino’s was before their new sauce trended toward pizza hut. But then again, I never order anything but pan pizza from the Hut, usually at dominos, and I never order pan at PJs. And, if you want it more authentic, you go sprinkle some quality Italian spices on it what it’s still really hot. and you might think other things matter a lot, but I’ve tried this new Mike’s frozen pizza and it comes with seasoning packets. It tastes low rent without, but with the full packet, it’s not half bad (relatively speaking). basically all 3 are the $10-15 pizzas, the next tier is $20-25 pizza and most families are not dropping $60 (tax, delivery, tip) on pizza. that’s why they’re the most popular. Two large pizzas, delivered, tax, tags, undercoating, tip… under or about $30.
On Twitter a few days ago Bullock was asking for suggestions on any prospects he should look at film of. I suggested Will Hernandez. He’s a 2nd rounder right? Grab DL at 13 and him at 44…that would go a long way in improving our trenches.

Tim Settle
Kentavious Street
Lotta opportunities to get better on the DL
Tim Settle seems to be moving up the draft fakery first pick mockery a round or two. I mean, obv still all fake…
He won’t test well at the combine
So he’ll drop somewhat
VV will test very well making taking him at 13 legit
I don’t think the Skins will prioritize him like we think. I think if they don’t sign Brown, T Edmunds is much more likely should he be there at 13, though you see more mockery of him going in the top 10 now than you used to.
It’s quite possible the FO feels we’re relatively set at DT with IO playing well and Jon Allen back healthy. They may be looking for a guy to only play NT in the 3-man front, in which case DT would not be a Day 1 priority.
If we go balls out on improving the front 7 then our D will improve. Philly did that. Their secondary was not very good. That’s the blueprint. Draft and sign FA on the front 7.
It’s a blueprint.
Is it the only one? No.
But it recognizes something important that maybe not everyone gets, and that is, football teams are going to have holes. You have to prioritize areas of excellence where your team can win significant match-ups against the other teams. And having a dominant front 7 might be one of the best ways to do that, at least to the level of conference competitor. But that means taking a 2nd round DL when you’ve already got a rockstar DL, as example, even-though you might need a starting DB.
1nd
If you ain’t firsnd you’re lastnet.
