He just married his wife last year who had been a grade school art teacher until becoming his business partner around the same time. Add that the company is kept afloat by his mother's restaurant really adds to the possibility of money laundering, and a political marriage and this is how she's paid.
![A clipping of the "Personal Life" section of Graham Platner's Wikipedia page that reads:
Platner lives in Sullivan, Maine. [20] He married his wife, Amy Gertner, in the autumn of 2024. [2] Gertner was an elementary and middle school art teacher until 2024, when she became the business manager for Waukeag Neck Oyster Co. [2] [15] Platner is a competitive pistol shooter and firearms instructor.

Agreed on plausible. There's other conversations about the sniper unit using the SS logo and while "normal" there's no reflection on what that implies by those defending it. I'm reminded of the tattoo scene in Starship Troopers, and how for many the fascism in the film goes right over their head.

Other thing I noticed from his Wikipedia is he got married last year, which the timing can be read as a consultant saying he needs to be married for the campaign. Also potentially curious is she'd apparently been a grade school art teacher until becoming his business partner around the same time.

The NFL does at least do that for the markets of the teams playing in the game, but it is a limited area. It's certainly not open to the whole country, and doesn't help someone who's state funded the stadium but are too far from the city.

If the FG was good, that doesn't invalidate the decision to have gone for 2. Regardless of the go for 2 decision they would have lost, as then an additional possession/score was needed.

Getting more of a Kenneth Branagh vibe than Will Smith too. I think it's the facial hair and the cross at his neck.

Well it is south of the Mason-Dixon line. Had the opposite issue though in high school in San Diego where my ostensibly smart classmates in AP US History thought it was part of New England. I think the key is spreading awareness of the concept of the Mid-Atlantic region.
![Excerpt from the Wikipedia page for "Dixie" that reads:
Although Maryland is not often considered part of Dixie today,[2][3] it is below the Mason–Dixon line. If the origin of the term Dixie is accepted as referring to the region south and west of that line (which excludes Delaware despite it having been a slave state in 1861), Maryland lies within Dixie. It can be argued that Maryland was part of Dixie before the Civil War, especially culturally.[4] In this sense, it would remain so into the 1970s, until an influx of people from the Northeast made the state and its culture significantly less Southern (especially Baltimore and the suburbs of Washington, D.C.).[3] However, Southern Maryland and the Eastern Shore still remain culturally Southern and share many traits associated with Dixie.[5]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cswuk2563sz5c5f64uxqe43i/bafkreigjwdayavzfz72bg7xcxx6vs6wtp53zvtqz3dsjnrdmaz5gv33j5i@jpeg)

Some really great information on the Rams draft process in this piece on Gladstone. A lot of attention to detail.

It looks like it will be more than 12, but hardly an amount to brag about having a movement. Found an audience shot from last year, and even the venue's own photos don't show it as very large. Based on these, I'm going to assume about 12 rows of 12 seats, for around ~150 person audience.

People would also make the argument that it's not just the contract, but also two first round picks due to the tag, as if that was a back breaker and not still an incredible deal.

They also apparently have ~3 months to decide if they want to move on entirely from Kirk, or keep him as an expensive backup and commit another $10 million guaranteed to him.

Before Goose Island became part of AB InBev at least, but apparently would have been available for Cameron to pick up on his own in the UK.

It's not critical enough, but it's also not flattering. As for the particular point, all their children have been via IVF.
