  1. He's a borderline starter IMO but no teams ever even bringing him in for tryouts will be an interesting part of his ongoing lawsuit. He's more than qualified to be a backup and there are much worse people who have actually done bad things in the NFL today.
  2. I still think that Pace bid against himself, but consider a more obvious overpay: If the Bears traded the next 20 years of 1st round draft picks and then SF blew every single one of those picks, it was still a bad trade for the Bears unless you think the Bears GM would make the same bad/blown picks. You can only compare the value of the picks at the time the trade was made and what we can determine about what other offers/options were out there, not after-the-fact knowledge. You want to evaluate if Pace made a good or the best decision at the time with the information that was knowable then. I'm glad Mitch is progressing and hopefully he continues to get better!
  3. yeah, it mainly seems to be by/for highly paid tech and finance guys. it also helps if you're like the insufferably smug Mr. Money Mustache guy who makes six figures from his blog.
  4. the 49ers using those picks stupidly doesn't necessarily make the deal better from Pace's end
  5. Team celebrations are dumb and I can't get enough of them
  6. I wish that Daniels had Jeffries to throw too still!
  7. gonna need some defensive or ST scores to win I think
  8. Sounds like it started with a domestic dispute between the murderer and a doctor there. So many of these shooters have histories like this.
  9. He also came really close to throwing a pick-6 late in the game in another bad read type of throw.

  11. if u think about it my gun that I carry everywhere because I am terrified of the world around me actually saves the lives of everyone within a two mile radius every hour, so that's millions saved just by one gun!

    This is true, but it's not the media/twitter people but actual NY politicians making a bunch of noise. Here's what Georgia had offered: This sort of stuff seems obscene to me, and not the foundation of a healthy society and economy.

    lmao Hey, at least you got your new home before the housing market out there got even more absurd.

    Local politicians, at least in NY, are NOT happy. Cuomo's planing to do an end-run around local approvals though. NoVA location is not shocking at all given Amazon has enormous contracts with the federal government for cloud services now. It's funny, in a way, to see the hopes of all of these mid-sized cities completely dashed in what was a bs search all along while the people in the cities who "won" are largely shouting DEAR GOD NO HOUSING IS ALREADY INSANE HERE! It's too bad we don't live in a world where one of the wealthiest companies in the world is having to solicit cities with offers for access to their talent pools rather than the other way around. I'm sure the $3B Amazon will be getting could go a long way to improve housing and badly needed infrastructure in those places.

    It's incredible how terrible of a deal the Foxxconn thing is for Wisconsin
