Long-suffering Raider fan.

Tired of Elon's hellscape, as are so many. Wondering whether things will take off here...
It provides HUGE enouragement for the ongoing boycott.
Musk and Trump could not possibly be sending a clearer signal that the Tesla protests are working than this pathetic stunt today.

Perhaps the most depressing part about the last couple of months is that every awful shitty thing that’s happening to this country is self-induced. People asked for this. None of it had to happen.

The parents should be charged with manslaughter. There is no reason a child in the US should die of measles in 2025. Letting your child die because you hold false beliefs about vaccines is incomprehensibly immoral and the idea it isn't a crime is dumbfounding.

Insane family.
"The vaccination has stuff we don't trust," said the father of the 6-year-old girl who died from measles at the end of last month. Tom Bartlett visited with a family confronting an unthinkable tragedy:

Richardson should be out of the league, if he gets beat out by Daniel Jones...
1) Consider Jones the favorite to beat out Anthony Richardson for the starting QB job; 2) Keep an eye on the Vikings and Aaron Rodgers
Daniel Jones is signing with the Colts, per @diannarussini.bsky.social.

Can he beat out Anthony Richardson for the starting spot in Indy?

Probably my two favorite non-Raider superbowls of all time...
Chiefs were 2nd team in Super Bowl history to attempt no kicks (FGs or PATs). Broncos also had none in 43-8 loss to Seahawks in SB48

I love how Trump, Vance and Musk style themselves defenders of free speech, while simultaneously banning government agencies from mentioning climate change or diversity (inc biodiversity!), equity and inclusion, or even possessing maps which show the Gulf of Mexico.
Torquemadas the lot of them.

The Trump administration is doing a collective "Alienate your allies" speedrun, with the VP being the most active player. Just incredible stuff. They're petulant manbabies who want to burn down the whole project of liberal democracy because people were putting pronouns in their email signatures.

My Raiduhs will likely find one of Mason Graham or Will Johnson still on the board at six. In the less likely event that both are available, we might have to pass on Mason as the corner depth in the draft is suspect and we really need a starter opposite Jakorian Bennett.
This draft has elite depth at running back, really good depth at tight end, and I love the edge group.

Wide receiver and cornerback are down compared to the last few drafts but some fun late rounders.

Raiders finally have a new GM: John Spytek.

Question is: Will Brady turn over the HC search to him, now, having been blown out by Ben J?

An early run on receivers? Four QBs in the first round? A trade for the top pick? Here's my projection of the opening 32 selections of April's draft.

@mikesilver.bsky.social Please resume your owner rankings, and don't be shy about putting MAGA Johnson in his rightful place therein.......
After losing to Denver, Woody Johnson suggested in a contentious meeting that they bench Rodgers because he felt the QB wasn’t playing well.
The coaches pushed back and asked each other if he was serious.

This is 2nd time in last 2 seasons that #49ers have been held to less than 5 yards a play and 7 or fewer points in a 1st half. Also happened in NFC title game last season vs Lions.
