The lions are completely correct in not trying to win now. They were 3-13. There is no amount of trades FA signings that’s gonna get them to a winning record

What does that guy want them to do

The time is right for them to make a big splashy trade. Offload Jared Goff for Super Bowl winning QB Matthew Stafford and become instant competitors. It worked for the Rams

Rodgers actually got a ring when the Bucks won it all last season because he has an ownership stake in the Bucks.

I think it's nice that they gave him a participation trophy since he's had such a hard time in the playoffs :3:

I'm trying to figure out how I feel about this. I don't care about the donuts because we've all done it. The kid in the car gives me pause, but it isn't like he was doing it in the snow, so how reckless was it really?

But doing donuts in an empty snowy parking lot isn't really dangerous unless you're in a very top-heavy car and are going really fast. :confused: If anything it's probably less dangerous because you don't need to go fast at all, and less destructive because it doesn't burn the asphalt

Yeah, the change in coaching staff is the big one. Different thinking and scheming could probably get a lot more out of the Vikings' deadly weapons.

As for the others, the Timberwolves have actually made noise for the first time in like a decade, the Wild have some hot new young talent that they can almost certainly hold onto through the impending dead cap squeeze they're going to hit, and the Twins are a Functioning Baseball Team, which is more than enough to top the AL Central, and actually seem like they're having fun and getting good chemistry. I was more enthusiastic about all of these things before the T-wolves and Wild got knocked out within a month of each other, but, that's Minnesota Sports.

If the Twins can win a single playoff game it will be a successful season

Last night I had a dream that the Vikings were 13-3 and playing in the playoffs, and when they received a punt in the 4th quarter of a close game, the returner just caught the ball and punted it back to the other team. I absolutely believe they could blow a playoff game in this way

There was definitely one that he liked himself from Rand Paul or somebody like that. It's possible that he didn't really understand what Rand Paul was saying but uh that doesn't reflect well on him either

The Bears offense is consistently so innovative and high flying that their OC's always get poached by other teams with head coaching vacancies after a single year on the job, I have to assume

Yeah I can believe it's getting worse. There are a lot of Wisconsinites in Minnesota and virtually every one I've met in the last couple years has brought up the fact that all the young/liberal/educated people they know have been leaving in droves, that they could never move back, that their hometowns are unrecognizable now, etc. This has all been unprompted and within a few minutes of us meeting for the first time. Not necessarily saying their impression is objectively true but it's definitely a pattern of attitudes being expressed.

Za'Darius Smith had such a good game. The hit on AJ Dillon on the strip-sack in the 3rd quarter was nasty but it looked like it might also have blown the whole play up, if Dillon was supposed to run out as a safety valve on the play.
