Whatever the Chinese are working on is the future.

Kiper put out his first big board of NFL draft prospects today. Out of 125 players ranked in the positional rankings there were only 3 Michigan players listed. Zavala was the #1 K, Barham #6 OLB, and Haynes as #2 RB. It’s a clear sign that the talent just isn’t there right now. It may be on the roster but it needs more time to develop.

I don’t know what the future is but I’d be very surprised if it happened here. This political agenda against immigration and universities will cause a massive brain drain and slow the pace that these companies can develop the latest and greatest technology achievements.

They should go 10/$475 and get it done. Boras would have him sign that this winter. The term is irrelevant to me. I want 6 more seasons of quality Skubal and will happily live through 4 potentially difficult seasons afterwards paying $47M for a guy that is not effective. Let’s attack the next 5 seasons and not worry about the distant future.

I think there may be a bigger problem on hand regarding this play. It’s very possible that someone on the team is feeding information to someone outside to for betting purposes. It seems like too much of a coincidence. Also, the Lions won the toss and took the ball making it it’s highly likely they had planned all week on having first possession.

I know a guy that was an early staff level engineer at Broadcom. He hasn’t worked in 25 years and just keeps getting richer.

It looks like the Lions made a simple mistake in play design. The play would've been legal if coming out of huddle Goff stayed back in shotgun and maybe faked looking at the sideline to get a signal or and then run out wide. The rule changed once he walked to center and touched Glasgow. Thats a minor detail they needed to do a better job on in practice.

I tend to agree. I also wonder what would happen if they offered 10/$500. They would never overpay this much. That would be a ridiculous number and almost double the next closest full time pitcher’s AAV but even Boras would have to say yes to that. I shouldn’t say never about an overpay. I believe (or maybe hope) that after his mom passes, the family will look to sell the teams. What Skubal’s deal looks like in 2034 and 2035 can be someone else’s problem to deal with.

I don’t know. It will come down to how strong the deals they get offered this Winter. This front office has shown they are very committed to building an organization that can consistently win year in and year out. Passing up a move that could have a major impact for many years in order to make a run for one season doesnt seem like Harris MO.

I’m not saying the NFL definitely has a thing against the Lions, but they’ve been a popular betting pick and their business partners make a bunch more money when the Lions lose. Fully expecting the Clete Blakeman or Brad Allen crew at Ford Field on Monday.

This along with 10 other holds, false starts, or offsides should’ve been called. Refs throw the flag on this play and there is no post game fight. Craig Wrolsted should be suspended by the league as well.

How many coaches and coordinators need to lose their job before it’s understood that you can not win with Justin Fieids as a pocket quarterback. The only way it can maybe work is if he’s running or passing from a rolling pocket at least 50% of the time. Even that may not be enough.

USC starting LT and C are both out.

I’ve got an uneasy feeling this may be the Bryce Underwood coming out game. I am more interested to see how USC responds on both sides of the ball after a bye week. Lincoln Riley is the 3rd highest paid coach in the country and has done nothing in 4 years. I’m not sure who would rank higher as most overrated coach in the country now that James Franklin has been completely exposed.

Next, next, next man up.

I appreciate this team staying true to who they are to the very end.

Nobody likes this move, AJ. This better work out

3,000 years of beautiful tradition

I predict today will be forever known as the Parker Meadows game. Jack White will be sitting next to Geddy Lee on Sunday while Mike McCready watches them on TV.

Don’t forget the pain of blowing the series to the same manager that walked out on them because the Cubs were a better opportunity. I’d feel for their fans but they’re all Packers fans, so ****’em.

I’m a bit surprised by Montreal. They’ve gotten very, very lucky in rebuilding from 22 to wins to the playoffs in just 3 seasons instead of the normally accepted 8 or 9 years it takes to do it.

So brainwashed and unable to think for yourself. Anything anti-trump is immediately labeled left and discarded. I’m not the left. I’ve never used the term genocide in reference to Gaza. I’m anti king. I believe in “of the people, by the people, for the people” and that absolute power corrupts absolutely.

This is not a peace deal. It’s a temporary truce tied to a ridiculously disproportionate prisoner exchange done only to try and win a ridiculous prize to boost his narcissistic need for ridiculous constant ego worship. This deal bolsters Hamas and gives them much needed reinforcements to keep their terror operations going strong for years to come. More than 250 violent terrorists serving lengthy or even life sentences will be released. The next few Sinwars are certainly in this group and will soon be plotting the next attacks. Hamas will never hand over their weapons or permanently close the tunnel network. This truce will fall apart quickly with no cease fire deal and will lead to an increase in violence for years to come. Hamas was on the ropes and close to going down but Trump rang the bell to save them.

So I hear there’s a little game in Los Angeles on Saturday. It’s a got to have it game for both teams. Probably a little more for USC because the schedule is harder. Whoever loses here will need a to have a significant upset victory and some additional outside help to get in the playoff. SC had a week off to get healthy and make tweaks. Hard to tell from the box scores but the defense is actually quite better than past years. CB was the weak spot coming into the year and it’s been decimated with injuries. Freshman forced into the lineup that shouldn’t be playing yet have been abused. Michigan has had a slow start developing its receivers but made strides last week so this is probably a good matchup for both teams. The front 7 has been great but lacks discipline and is prone for dumb penalties and the occasional missed assignment. That plays right into UM hands as one of the RB’s will almost certainly pop a long one before the end of the day. The OL has been solid and that’s opened up the offense. QB looks legit and has a ton of high end skills but then again at times so did Miller Moss, Kedan Slovis, JT Daniels, and on and on. He could end up a star but he’s got to keep doing it on Saturdays. Makai Lemon is Puka Nacua. He’s currently outplaying Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate as the best WR in the conference. He’s been doing it without Jakobi Lane fully healthy on the other side. Lane is supposedly 100% after the week off. Toughest test on the schedule for the Michigan DB’s. This is a game that SC should win at home against a team that doesn’t feature the pass with an inexperienced QB. The problem is that Lincoln Riley teams just don’t close. In fact, they straight out choke when the game is on the line. Riley has coached 45 games at USC and amazingly he has lost 8 games where they were tied or ahead with 2:00 to go in the game. It’s hard to fathom. Just like last year, Michigan comes back and wins a game they had no business winning. Michigan 37 USC 35
