    "Hip Drop" tackle banned.

    This is gonna be a fucking mess. Look how often Horse Collar Tackles are already called wrong. But now basically you can't pull a guy down from behind. You can't pull him down from the front or back. You can't hit him too high. You can't even form tackle him, if he bends over at all and...

    DQ for a bite at UFC 89

    https://x.com/UFCEurope/status/1771686205588971686?s=20 Was trying to defend it until you see the actual bite marks.

    Better late than never...?

    This year we were late getting to it, but it's finally here. Seasons over and now we look to the draft and FA. Most of my life we've been at this point for 3 months already. I have a couple knee jerk reactions, but I guess I should probably wait to say anything. But it seems more than ever...

    Just saw that the Detroit Pistons are about to make it 4/4.

    2004 Detroit Tigers had something like 120 losses. Worst record by any baseball team in the 2000's. 2008 Detroit Lions went 0-16. Worst record in NFL history. Tied for Worst record by any team in football in the 2000s. 2019 Detroit Redwings. Worst record of any hockey team in the 21st...

    Belichick coaching tree

    Is it just me, or has this guy turned loose upon other sidelines some of the worst, most insufferable people ever? I mean football coaches in general seem to have a propensity towards douche bagginess, with a special shout out to 2nd generation guys like Lane Kiffin, Jim Harbaugh, and both Ryan...

    Sean Payton goes in on Hackett

    Just google news search Payton, there's 100 stories out there. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/columnist/bell/2023/07/27/sean-payton-denver-broncos-russell-wilson-blame-nathaniel-hackett/70470187007/...

    NFL Gambling suspensions

    https://wbckfm.com/should-the-nfl-rescind-jameson-williams-suspension/ This is obviously more of a local story rather than a national one. But the more I see it being investigated and looked into the more shady this whole thing has become. Multiple Detroit Lions players and an even larger...

    Quay Walker vs Jamal Williams.

    Just saw this https://www.si.com/nfl/packers/news/quay-walker-and-the-stupidity-of-the-nfl Walker fined 13 Grand for shoving a trainer and being ejected. Williams fined 18 Grand for dancing after a TD which was not flagged by the refs.

    Who is Coach of the Year?

    A guy I was talking to at work claimed Dan Campbell was the easy pick for coach of the year. He took a team that was competing for the #1 draft pick and turned them into the NFL pick for most interesting playoff implications game in the league. And I do agree that he also gers a bump from being...

    Dana White slaps wife

    https://www.tmz.com/2023/01/02/dana-white-wife-drunk-fight-slap-new-years-eve-nightclub-cabo/ There's lots of things you can get away with if you're rich and powerful. I'm not sure hitting your wife is one of them. And yes, I understand she hit him first. Doesn't matter to many people, you...

    Spirited (2022)

    I like Reynolds and Ferrell a lot, so I kinda wanted to see this movie. But just found out it's another remake of A Christmas Carol. I'm so sick of a Christmas Carol, it's a tired old story and it's been done to death already. Plus it doesn't even hit the way it used to, when literally every...

    Ford Field turf

    So there's now studies proving increase in injuries on the type of fake turf we have. The Lions consistently have had injury problems to their players. Seems like we've seen an increased number of injuries to our opponents this year, it seems like although I'm too lazy to look, that everyone...

    Hard Knocks

    One week out from episode 1. Anything you guys are excited to see? I never in the past wanted to see our team on this show, but this team I'm actually curious. I said last year (I think) that coach knee biter was complete boom or bust. He would either come across as a complete joke or the...

    Twas the night before Christmas...

    Who you got? Call your shot here, or what you want. Doesn't necessarily have to be Lions picks if you're hoping for other things or call any shots anywhere else. For me at #2 I'm good with any of the DE's. I'd be upset with a Safety, and down right mad with a CB. If it was a QB I would be...

    Juwan Howard HC U of M Wolverines just threw a punch

    Upset about a late game timeout he had words with HC of Wisconsin. Players were breaking it up and Howard came over the top throwing a punch. He's gotta be suspended by the league for the rest of season right? Probably out for the post season too. I wouldn't be surprised if the University...

    Fans boo Sheila Ford

    I can't post links easily here on my phone, but I've seen three different articles today that say it was unfair and classless that fans booed Ford at halftime. Calvin obviously got cheered. Is there any real Lions fans who have anything good to say about the Bored Housewive of Detroit running...

    And with the Seventh pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions.....?

    Less than a week out have thing become any clearer? Who ya got? I still personally like the idea of drafting a second bookend CB and building through strengths. But it's also become clear that no CB in this class is worth a top 10 pick. And since this doesn't appear to be a team that even...

    Anybody know how car insurance appraisals work?

    2 weeks ago some kid hit me going well in excess of 100 mph. His car spun and went in a ditch. Mine rolled over (and over and over and over and over again.) Police came and everything obviously, but I had a very minor concussion and was just generally very shaken up. So they hustled me into...

    Best salty snack type?

    too many options to make a poll. My #1 vote has to be Dot's pretzels though. There imo isn't a better snack. Pretzels Brands | Family Owned | Dot's Homestyle Pretzels #2 probably used to be cheese Pringals, but I think they changed the recipe and its not as good now. Maybe Sour Cream and...

    NFL Supplemental Draft 2020

    So with the discussion already starting and the very good chance that there is no 2020 NCAA football season, I wonder if the NFL will hold a supplemental draft for any draft eligible players who went back but now change their minds? I know there is a normal process for doing this, but do you...

    Does it change anything if...

    I think the debates are pretty much settled, and everyone agrees Tom Brady is the GoaT. Next year Tom Brady likely plays some where else though, which means somebody else QB's NE. What happens if Brady goes somewhere and doesn't have huge success, and at the same time Drew Brees goes to NE and...

    Autonomous driving / Autopilot...?

    Anybody have any experience with these systems? I know Tesla's are considered the best of the bunch on this, even after the government regulations forcing them to turn it down. But it seems like all of the other manufacturers are working towards the same thing. I'm assuming they're all in the...

    The day the music died.

    I know this is the theme of a fairly famous song named after an actual event. But I think it's also a day that cant be too far in the future. I mean has there ever been a worse time in music history? Theres a country music singer rapping along with the most derivatively named "rapper" of all...

    Morel mushrooms recipes?

    Me and my brother took our kids out mushroom hunting this past weekend. In our immediate area for an hour or two, we every year find 1/8 - 1/4 pound of them. We just fry them up and eat them. This year we found a good 2 pounds or so of these beauties. My mom and dad winter in Florida every...

    Who's our Offensive Coordinator next year?

    Cooter hasn't been fired yet, but there's no chance we keep him. Right? Rumors are Adam Gase was almost a lock to come here as OC. But I gotta imagine he gets some HC interviews. A college guy? A fired HC? An up and coming QB guru? Other offensive assistant coach? There's the "passing game...
