our defense continues to be the big question going into the draft, if that first round pick (assuming no trade backs) isn't a CB or Edge... Adam Peters cooked last off season but a sophomore slump could hit in a big way if the defense isn't addressed

sad to see Dyami go but at that price I’m happy for him, hope he finds a good fit across from BTJ under Coen under Kliff he was great in tunnel screens, wasn’t until the playoffs he ran a full route tree at all levels iirc had hoped for years he’d be our WR2 but just wasn’t meant to be I guess

Rodgers’ reaction the first time George Pickens runs the wrong route or whatever will feed families

Twitter Jerry Jones 🤝 Not planning to be active during free agency

Charvarius Ward... you ARE a Commander

so what are we doing with Johnny Newton... we moved on from J Allen just to sign Kinlaw for slightly cheaper? from what I'm seeing he isn't exactly an improvement hope we're not seeing the blind 49erization of the Commanders (like Ron Pantherized the team during his time)...

Even if Jonathan Allen is declining, do you really need to cut him at $18m/year if you're going to turn around and sign Javon Kinlaw @ $15m/year? I don't understand lol

we gave how much for Kinlaw???????

BJ Hill back to the Bengals for 3-years, $33M per Schefty. He deserves it and this does not preclude them from getting deals done with Chase & Higgins done but I can only imagine the reaction of Bengals fans when these non-WR extensions get reported.

Perfect time for Twitter to stop working eh

More bending the knee to Trump’s illegal orders, this time Stanford banning trans people from sports. As a reminder, fewer than 10 out of 510,000 NCAA athletes identify as trans. Stanford’s action violates California law & feeds into the bigotry that puts trans people in so much danger. Shameful.

No, this is the most ashamed you've felt as an American *so far*.

god republican national security elites are gonna pretend they have no hand in what they have created

this also swept up people who were on a technical probationary period *because they got promoted into new jobs*

Remarkable how Congress passed a law, the President signed it, the Supreme Court upheld it…and now everyone is simply pretending that all didn’t happen www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/t...

it is beyond clear that for many americans trump is a blank slate who stands for whatever they personally want

Many Americans fundamentally believe that truly horrendous things can't happen here, and work backwards from there.

Service doesn't guarantee citizenship I guess

d-tier priority but trump2 presidency is absolutely going to irrevocably wreck the white house over the next four years

god this guy's entire schtick is so fucking lame. i remember when he was hyping up Alan Fung

I just truly despise this man

Unreal. The US government is dumping Asian and African families and children in random countries that they have no connection to. Dumping, not "deporting." Deportation implies the return of a person to their home country. This is treating people like toxic waste. www.cbsnews.com/news/us-depo...

🚨NEWS: Massive layoffs are about to hit the IRS -- around 10,000 employees -- potentially in the middle of filing season. Of particular interest to the DOGE: Cutting IRS enforcement capabilities. -- with @jeffstein.bsky.social + Hannah Natanson

What the fuck is wrong with these people

In other words: the richest man on Earth, who owns a space technology company, is slashing the US government’s space program — with no electoral mandate to do so

After 8 years at Vox Media/SB Nation/Secret Base, I have been laid off. Thank you guys for supporting me throughout the years and I hope you join me for whatever is next. Secret Base will continue to make great things, I honored to be a part of it.

my favorite moments from the three who were laid off from secret base today:

you wanna play big boy games your name gets published. what is this my large adult precious son shit

Purging the Army by getting rid of the Army

I am fairly pleased with this table that I cobbled together for a guest lecture next week on the different narratives about the use of the atomic bomb in World War II, and creating an example of ways in which they can be compared to each other in an overarching way.

"You cannot serve both God and mammon." Republican: you know democrats have been incredibly unfair to mammon

If there is one thing I could shout at democratic leaders, and senators in particular, it would be just three words: Honor. Your. Oaths.

Imagine the Washington Post of 1973 reporting on the Saturday Night Massacre like this milquetoast slop, Ben Bradlee would have kicked the copy editor down a flight of stairs.

Remember when the media spent an entire election cycle telling the American public that the number one issue of concern was whether one of the candidates had used a private email server to conduct official business?

I really hate the American press

“The dismissals appeared to violate federal law, which requires Congress to receive 30 days’ notice of any intent to fire the inspectors general.”

A Ukrainian sniper was doing an interview with some western journo. He told her ‘war isn’t for women’ She replied ‘war isn’t for humans’

There's just something viscerally horrifying about knowing that the fundamental and underlying stability that I have taken for granted as a citizen in a developed democracy is under threat and no longer guaranteed is really something

just absurd that the backlash to making it slightly less automatic for white men to get handed everything led us to this point I’m a white man and let me tell you there have been zero roadblocks to anything I’ve achieved in life because of it skill issue on the part of the dipshits
