Be more respectful towards your future President.

Yep, going to be the first President to govern from a memory care unit.    He's going downhill mentally at "Warp Speed".  Sheeze Louise, you really want a guy for president who's confusing Haley with Nancy Pelosi? Nikki is living rent free in Donnie's head 24\7.  

I never predict Browns games.. But the bad news is whenever I get a strong feeling one way or another about our game it's usually wrong.  And I feel pretty good about our chances in Houston.  

Regarding the other game, the Dolphins play like crap when the weather is below 40 degrees, much less the below zero temps predicted. Give me KC in a 10-3 affair.  

And as I posted in a separate thread, if you don't have Peacock, NFLN is rebroadcasting that game at midnight Eastern.  

For those who don't have Peacock, and are unwilling to go the pay-per-view route $5.99 to NBC (I'm not) to see the Chiefs- Dolphins game in real time... Assuming you have NFL Network, they're rebroadcasting the game at 12 Midnight EST.  

I'll watch some of the froze bowl Sunday afternoon. Now if you lived in the area and wanted to freeze your ass of in -20 wind chill, seats on NFL ticket exchange can be had for as little as $20.

Oh... and you're just so polite?  Right back at ya.. That's the point, you can call me any name you want to, but I should be above it all?  Boo hoo... As I said, try an intelligent response next time.

You can get the jest of it in the first ~10min.

NO thank  you... 

 

Expands into Climate BS and more BS hijacked Science for those interested.

 

In short, he confirms that these Hydrocarbons are created in our Crust as well - and that they are even floating in Space.

1) He further states that ~40% of the Hydrocarbons tapped/drilled/etc are still there, as there is currently not enough pressure to extract them efficiently. 

The fact that he confirms the creation in our Crust confirms the Abiotic process I referred too long ago.

2) Everything we've been told throughout History is a Lie - this is just another confirmation.

Things I have said years ago are just now coming too be fact   .   .   .   cool your Jets and watch what all else starts coming out.

I have a good idea, but this year is going to be too busy with other Chaos to be worried about it now.

Just posted this as a note to those getting discouraged   .   .   .   a lot too go still, but a lot of good will become of the trial.

 

and that they are even floating in Space.  

That...  Regarding hydrocarbons is utter nonsense JB....  99%+ of any stuff floating around in interstellar space or in our solar system is is either hydrogen or helium. Maybe you should look that up. ROTFLMAO... maybe all that dark matter we can't see is DNA purine bases.   

40% of the Hydrocarbons tapped/drilled/etc are still there

You're damn right there is JB... You know what that is????  COAL. There's probably at least 1,000 years worth, if we could figure out how to burn it cleanly.  So ask yourself WHY are we drilling in two miles deep of water off the continental shelfs, or up on the North Slope in Alaska.  Other than in the Middle East, ALL the easily extractable oil has been harvested. FYI, the deeper you drill, the HOTTER it gets.  TBC...

Abiotic process

Do you even have conceptual knowledge of what an abiotic process is? First off,  unless you have something totally outside of my frame of chemistry expertise- and I did almost minor in chemistry in college... To create hydrocarbons... Golly gee, you're going to have to need...Wait for it... CARBON.   Do you know what happens when you get carbon deep under the earth's crust and subject it to incredible temperatures and pressure?  FYI, you don't get oil- you get diamonds.   Conspiracy on pal... Believe whatever you want....

I don't believe he claimed there were fossils on one of Saturn's moons. He's claiming their are hydrocarbon fuels that supposedly need fossils to be created.

Yeah, there's a slight difference there- LOL, complex hydrocarbons are a huge leap to finding fossils. If you're interested in finding life, or something similar...  NASA is sending a probe in the not too distant future  to Jupiter's moon Europa, an ice world covered in a global ocean. to find out if there's anything under that ice...

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Look in a mirror pal...  FWIW, I've probably forgotten more astronomy related stuff than you know. FWIW, I did a little Google search on our QAnon adherent JABF regarding Dr. Willie Soon.    

LOL JABF likes to look at one guy who's global warming theories have been refuted by a dozen + other climate scientists. Because it fits his agenda.  The Sooner flunks the peer review test.. and don't give me any crap about that either, I have my name on a obscure research paper that made it into the Lancet- the top Blood Banking periodical in the world. Sooner also takes money from the petroleum industry- a conflict of interest.   

"On February 21, publications including The Guardian and The New York Times reported that Soon had failed to disclose conflicts of interest in at least 11 papers since 2008, and alleged that Soon had violated ethical guidelines of at least eight of those journals publishing his work."

So keep on keeping on Vambo... Global warming is a hoax, and don't forget...TRUMP WON!!!

I'm not going to waste 40+ minutes of my time on some crackpot theory. But knock yourself out believing crap like this. If there was ANY evidence of fossils on one of Saturn's moons, it would have been all over NASA's website, not some goombah with a camera and Internet access.  Nice try, there's hydrocarbons (even complex hydrocarbons) on Titan, which we've known about for years... Yeah, there's LAKES of methane there, it's what happens to natural gas (methane) when you chill it down to -290 degrees. . Real fossils? I suppose remnants of a civilization from Iota Ceti that dropped them off on their trip through our solar system millions of years ago.

Deep pockets, That's chump change

Only if you have a "deep pockets" alumni.  Don't know if it's accurate, but a Google search says OSU's football budget is $70 million. Wonder if that includes coach's salaries?

Besides Day's $9.5 million, four assistant coaches pulled down over $1 million, and nine others weren't living off of food stamps.  If the above is correct, that's 25%+ of the football budget.

End of an era, it’s still possible Belichik won’t be the patriots coach next season too - I gotta think they are thinking pretty hard about Vrabel - maybe wanting to test the trade market though.

Hoodie now heading south? To Atlanta next year?  If Vrabel doesn't get the Patriots job, he's going to be a head coach somewhere this coming season.

Oregon's Dan Lanning and Clemson's Dabo Swinney are two possibilities. 

I don't see Alabama fading into mediocrity anytime soon.  

Schools like Alabama and Ohio State recruit themselves.  Regardless of who the coach is...  Any four star recruit with NFL ambitions is (usually) going to want to play there. They have the luxury of turning away top tier talent. Look no farther than Joe Burrow, who was riding the bench at Ohio State, transferred and won a National Championship at LSU.

That is largely  true.  Vrabel is a better fit at The OHIO STATE University rather than New England ..... for the long  haul.   That's what  OSU  and  NE should be thinking about.

 

Sorry.. Vrabel to Ohio State is Buckeye homer talk. I will say with 99.9% certainty Day isn't going anywhere. You heard the exact same sort of crap up North from Meechigan back when Harbaugh couldn't beat OSU, and now since he's won it all, he's a freaking hero up there.  🙄

Aw, if we don't make the College football playoffs every year, can the coach. 

FWIW, Day's contract with Ohio State runs through 2028, to the tune of $9.5 million a year.  Not sure if it's all guaranteed, but that's a lot of cash to can him just to bring in Vrabel.

I'll be interested to see where the Patriots go, to be honest. I actually wouldn't be surprised if they go in a completely different way. Kraft is 82 years old and this move, to me, signals trying to get one more shot at glory. Could that be achieved by going the "Patriots way" and hiring Vrabel? Maybe. But part of me thinks if they wanted to keep this Patriots way why not just keep Bill through next season (end of his contract).

I just get this vibe they may try to get that lightning in a bottle coach like McVay or Shanahan.

FWIW, whatever Kraft has to pay Bill for next year's contract (a reported $25 million) that's peanuts to a billionaire. 

Vrabel is the obvious choice. Proven commodity, played for the Patriots under Bill.   But if Kraft wants another Lombardi before he croaks, I agree with what NFLN just said. The Patriots are in for a rebuild, not something a coach can instantly fix. Even if they manage to land another C J Stroud with their #3 pick, anyone see the Texans as Super Bowl winners this year?  

It is the end of an era... Checking... Sean McVay was five years old when Bill became the head coach of the Browns.

George Halas,  Don Shula  and Bill  over 300 wins  in the NFL.   Best ever  -or- just hung around the longest ..... what do you think ?

Having the best players helps.  But in the memorable words of Bum Philips regarding Don Shula...  "First, he'll take his 'uns- and beat your 'uns... Then he'll take your 'uns and beat his 'uns."  

Even though he's a certain first ballot HOFer, doesn't sound like Bill is retired from coaching yet. FWIW, He needs 17 more wins to pass George Halas, and 27 more to pass Don Shula to top the all-time list.

There’s a lot of teams mad at themselves for not going after Flacco. They’ll be even madder if he does something crazy like starts winning playoff games. The Vikings are probably the most striking example of a playoff caliber team that needed a Flacco. Instead, they got a Dobbs

Cleveland fans should just enjoy the ride, it’s my favorite season since 99’ who cares about the QB next year.

If Flacco does somehow manage to make the Super Bowl, then who cares if the browns make Watson the highest paid QB2 of all time next year - and if they don’t retain Flacco, it’s not like Watson is bad (he’s just hated as a person). 

I don’t think the Steelers go after any free agent QBs, it seems like it’s against their philosophy or something.

But I believe they (the Steelers) did pick up our own Mentor High School Mitch Trubisky as a free agent.  He's probably played himself off of their roster, as he only has a $4 million cap hit next year.

Watsons contract leaves him as a brown regardless, they can’t afford to pull a broncos.

I think we should just enjoy the ride, worry about the QBs when we’re in the offseason.

 

That's correct bb.... Checking his contract on Spotrac, we're basically stuck with him for the 2024 and 2025 seasons his dead cap hit is prohibitive. In 2026, it would only cost us $73 million to cut him.  

Of course I'd love to bring back Joe as a security blanket if Watson gets hurt again, but would he be interested in being DW's backup? Should the Browns make a deep playoff run he's going to be (ala Aaron Rodgers) one blazing hot free agent QB for a team thinking they're only a QB away from a Super Bowl win.  

For those who don't live in NE Ohio, and aren't aware of this guys many billboards. Mizny is a personal injury lawyer, and his Billboards usually say "Mizny Makes Them Pay".  😉

Add another one to the list, surprising- since he recently said he was going to continue to coach...  Pete Carroll of the Seahawks is resigning\ being promoted to the front office.  

On the injury front... The good news is- Browns are activating Grant Delpit off of IR...  And in WTF news- Juan Thornhill still didn't practice yesterday...  He's been nursing that calf injury since week 10.  🙄

Add Mike Vrabel to the list, the most surprising so far probably:

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39272784/sources-titans-fire-coach-mike-vrabel-6-seasons

Not sure I get it, I think the titans were just a victim of aging stars that aren't really stars anymore - they need to enter rebuild mode, guess they want a new coach to lead the way through that.

Pederson is so insanely stubborn with Press Taylor for some reason, maybe they have a secret relationship or something. That's his biggest problem as a coach...living and dying by a terrible offensive playcaller for no apparent reason. 

I don't get it either bb...  MHO is Vrabel is one of the better head coaches around, and he won't be unemployed for long... Or there was internal bickering between Vrabel and the GM... I want "my guy" as a HC..  Seems like the owner thinks he can pull another Chuck Noll\ Bill Cowher\ Mike Tomlin out of a hat..  If they wind up with another Hue Jackson instead, it will serve them right....
