  1. Well, they got me then. I fell for the fake graphic and new report. In any case, I don't think we're going to be in the market for a high-priced contract like this, Hendrickson or otherwise.
  2. Yeah, the Gary Bears are missing out on all their main pass rusher options thus far.
  3. I haven't seen him sign anywhere. He had 10.5 sacks last year and was still a productive pass rusher. He also plays against the run and can be an every down guy, which we know the Lions like that versatility, not just situational pass rushers.
  4. Steelers signed Bucaneers CB Jamal Dean for 3 years, $36.75 million. Dean was a guy I had really liked for the Lions in the past before Tampa Bay brought him back. I would have taken Dean at that price I think as a potential insurance for Arnold.
  5. Does this mean James Connor is out in Arizona? If so, Connor would be a perfect fit here.
  6. He was never going to come here and we were never going to pay him. The idea of having a 21015 Denver Broncos style defense with two elite, bookend pass rushers was always a pipe dream. Oh well.
  7. Canine to the Chiefs. Assuming Mahomes comes back healthy next season, this seems like a good signing for them.
  8. I don't understand what the Colts are doing here trading Pittman. They trade for Sauce Gardner less than 4 months ago, thinking that he can elevate their team. They thought that somehow they could ride with Daniel Jones to playoff success, when he has no proven track record of success. They also thought a guy like Gardner would elevate them to being true contenders in the playoffs. Then, they turn around in less than 4 months and trade their best receiver and potentially lose their other top receiver, Alec Pierce, in free agency. Either rebuild or go all in to win. They are doing neither and will be stuck in the 8-8 middle for the foreseeable future.
  9. Why do we need to extend Gibbs this early? Why not ride him out to the franchise tag and year 6?
  10. I expect to see gas up around the $4 mark here in Metro Detroit within the next week or two. I think it's feasible that by April, if Trump's war drags on, that we hit $5/gallon.
  11. Finkle is Einhorn, Trump is Bush. This may well be Trump's "Now watch this drive" moment the Bush had while the Iraq War was raging on.
  12. So Elias Pettersson remains a Vancouver Canuck.
  13. I agree with you on fans expectations for 4thround picks or later. I think the average fan out there has an unrealistic expectation of what type of player a 4th round pick or later will actually develop into. If they're a contributing depth piece, much less a starter, that's a success for most any GM and team. I haven't complained here or anywhere about the 4th round picks or later that they've made. I could not really care if Brad spends a 4th round pick on a project tackle or RB who could develop into a contributing player. It's the Josh Paschal picks in the 2nd round and Hendon Hooker or Broderic Martin in the 3rd round that really impact this team in a negative way.
  14. It's a shame that we used to universally agree that childhood pedophila was abhorrent, repugnant, and morally wrong. Now that Donald Trump had been exposed as a child pedophile and sexual pervert towards teenage girls, one side of the political asile is alright with grown men walking in on teenage girls changing naked at teen beauty pageants.
  15. There will be many "Sure Jan" moments during this unjust, unconstitutional war with Iran. Saying the war will last a few days or weeks will be one of them. This is turning into Iraq 2.0 right before our very eyes.
  16. Apparently, doing some further reading on Twitter, it seems that Rice was at the White House for a college sports related function they are holding. Hopefully, no one would listen to anything she has to say on foreign policy and intervention.
  17. Maybe they want Rice to be the leader in Iran just like Paul Paul Bremer ran Iraq. I seriously hope her being at the White House was just a coincidence and is nothing related to Iran, the war, or any foreign policy advice.
  18. We have no idea what Condoleezza Rice was doing at The White House today. But if she was offering any type of advice on Iran or wartime strategy related to this war, than LAUGH OUT LOUD! One of the architects of the disastrous Bush doctrine and the Iraq War should be giving no one, any foreign policy advice. That's like taking advice on business ethics from Ken Lay and Jeffery Skilling. This one was apart of an administration, as a National Security Advisor and Secretary of State, that doctored and grossly misrepresented intelligence reports to help rush America off to war with a country that was not a national security threat in any way, shape, or form to our country. From made up and/or exaggerated reports of WMDs in Iraq to Saddam trying to buy yellowcake uranium from Niger to build a nuclear weapons program, to mushrooms clouds over Manhattan to Saddam's "ties to terrorists", Rice was integral in all the lies the Bush Administration made. Not to mention this war criminal defended the torture of other human beings. The only place she should be she should be walking into is in a jail cell in The Hauge after her war criminal tribunal is complete. If she had any role in human torture or the use of chemical weapons like white phosphorous or was provably apart of crafting the intelligence plans for invading Iraq (and we know she was), then she belongs in jail for war crimes and other international law violations.
  19. It's a bit of a damper giving up Dmitiri Buchelnikov. I wanted a bigger move to be made and one was made, so I can't be too mad.
  20. I'm very pleased with this trade. We only gave up picks and kept all of our prospects intact. I was willing to trade Danielson for the right player, like a Robert Thomas. Glad we kept him in this deal though. Also glad to see Chiarot permanently move down a line and Faulk be on line one or Simon het the bump up to line one.
  21. Would you feel comfortable with a young, but an oft-injured guy like Jedrick Wills as a replacement for Decker?
  22. So are we selling and buying at the deadline? Are we using this as a move to setup for another move?
  23. Darren Dragger saying that Robert Thomas is unlikely to be moved now per what Kenny Cott just said on 97.1.
  24. First off, thank you. Thank you Taylor Decker for being an anchor on the offensive line over the last decade. Thank you for suffering through all the years of misery with Matt Patricia and rebuilding. Thank you for sacrificing your body and your mind playing many tough years for this franchise. Thank you for being an anchor on this line when it was the anchor for this team for several years of playoff teams. Love you Taylor Decker and much respect. Thank you for all you've done.
