It makes sense considering his drop back was hosed with multiple times during the year and his time in training camp was split between Reich's plan of fundamentals and NFL QB poo poo and Tepper's instruction to start him no matter what.

At least Canales has a plan. I don't care what it is, just that there is one and its followed for an offseason. Selling the farm for 3 years of Dak if Bryce aint it is fine with me. Still interested to see what Canales can do though.

Just the other day my friend was talking about his $8/month Netflix sub and I was like buddy you might want to look at your credit card statement more often lol. People (myself very much included) are terrible about reviewing recurring costs once they’re locked in

I had Peacock free for a year (2022). Watched Girls5eva, MacGruber, and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. Kevin Owens. It was good, but I've been getting Paramount+ for free since 2022 as well, and that's not been turned off yet for reasons unknown so I'm going to get through the Tiffany streamer first.

I have a hard time getting upset when a steaming provider increase their cost by $2-5 at a time.

As much as I dislike it, the streaming services are pretty darn good returns on investment for entertainment.

A single movie ticket at a nice movie theater costs about the same as a month subscription to a streaming service.


I just wish nfl games were all available on one of the major streaming platforms.

The more you kick against the pricks, the more you suffer.
I'm trying to imagine a way to do surprise onside kicks in the context of the new kickoff rules, like you could send five to try to yoink the ball as soon as the ball is kicked but every other kicking team members has to touch the 50 before they can play defense.

How about : if you can land the football in the 5 yard range between the blockers, it's a live ball. Receiving team has the advantage of being able to see the ball's flight and the kicking team's defenders.

The wording earlier was, "No one other than the kicker and returner(s) can move until the ball hits the ground or a player inside the landing zone"
And the "landing zone" is between the goal line and the 20-yard line.

So does that mean if a ball lands on say the 30 and rolls to a stop at the 25, no one can touch it, and the receiving team starts at the 25? Or how will that work?

If it's short of the landing zone, treated as out of bounds, goes to the 40.

This post reminded me that my $1.99 a month for the athletic ends in April because I signed up to get access to Dane bruglers big draft post. As soon as I signed in to cancel my subscription before it costs 72 for the year the site offered me a full year for ten bucks. I think I understand now why people are always saying it’s going to go under

Yup, I had a similar experience with one of the streaming services (peacock I think) back last summer. Subscribed to watch one show, finished it, went to cancel, they offered me another free month, I said 'gently caress it' and accepted just to see if I ever bothered using it again, but set a reminder to cancel after a month passes. well, another month passes and I go to cancel, and it offers another free month. They are begging you to forget that you are subscribed to something. Probably why there's a whole cottage industry now for alerting you to recurring payments and poo poo (which, haha, is its own subscription and recurring payment)

After realising I had 4 different streaming services I just cancelled everything and now I pick one a month. Sign up and cancel on the same day. The only exception is Prime because I use prime shipping for quite a bit of stuff. It helps keep content rotation pretty good If you're taking a three month break or so.

You can't do a surprise, but I'm still gonna push my idea of having a 10 yard box with both teams lined up on their 45s where the ball must touch the ground inside the box (on first landing, no squibs) before either team can move. The receiving team still has the advantage of seeing the ball, plus automatic possession if the ball doesn't land in the zone or goes out of bounds. The kicking team would have a fighting chance with essentially big fumble scramble, but no one would be running at each other at top speed because of the randomness of the bounce and the short distance to cover.

Glad to see the regular kickoffs changed, though, and I expect the onside will get an overhaul in the next year or two.
