A rule for this profile, as is the case with all online media profiles:
You're welcome to interact, but I don't accept negativity or criticism from random passersby, mostly because I don't have to. I mute, block, etc. if I don't like it.
I am here to shout into the void for my own edification.

The Philadelphia Eagles biggest problem is with GM Howie Roseman, who is an excellent evaluator of talent but can’t handle anything but yes men in key coaching positions. The problem with those yes men is they are frequently bad at their jobs. He is the 2.0 version of 49ers-era Trent Baalke.

The Sacramento Kings are a train wreck and a tire fire that I can’t look away from. I keep hoping it eventually just burns to the ground harmlessly instead of exploding, but I don’t fans are going to get so lucky.

I don’t know, those Dennis Erickson era 49ers teams broke the futility scale in ways this Raiders team could only have nightmares about.
In a historical sense, this is awful on countless levels. This is a Raiders team that absolutely belongs on a list of the most inferior in franchise history, writes Ed Graney.

I try not judge when I am excluded by friends in life events or when they visit the touristy city I live in without calling or reaching out. It is their choice, and I don’t need to be a part of everything (especially when time or space is limited.) However, I also do not forget.

One of Vegas' two most unfortunate anniversaries, and one that led to a lot of changes in the way things are done.
In the worst disaster in Nevada history, 85 people died, and about 700 were injured when an electrical fire started in a deli on the casino level of the MGM Grand (now Horseshoe) on the Las #Vegas Strip on Nov 21, 1980. bit.ly/36UOqyP

Ryan Reaves keeps getting meaningful work in the NHL for damn good reasons, many of which don’t necessarily involve how hard he hits opposing players.

Between the injuries, poor play calling, and the cascading disaster at quarterback, I’m pretty sure Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon is going to be out of a job come January.

The Raiders offense (31st in points, 30th in yards) and the Cowboys defense (31st in both points and yards allowed) really is a matchup of the stoppable force against the movable object.

The Golden Knights have all sorts of shortcomings right now, particularly in the goals department. But Schmid let by at least two pucks that he should’ve stopped. Vegas’ goaltending, much like last season’s playoffs, is quietly letting them down right now. They are feeling the Hill injury badly.

It is rather frustrating when a person who brings the drama all the time refuses to ever acknowledge that they are doing so. Then gets mad when you tell them that’s the case.

Brian Daboll was so reckless with Jaxson Dart — the last remaining offensive player standing who could’ve saved the coach’s job — that he got himself fired for it. The couldn’t afford to let Daboll kill the team’s future QB so that he could maybe make it to next year in his job.

I think Doug Christie is overmatched by the job of coaching an NBA team, DeMar Derozan and Zach Levine are terrible fits who are also lazy defenders, Scott Perry is a stooge who has no clue what he’s doing, and it’s time to implode the Kings yet again and start over.

Noah Hanifin is a minus-3 in this game. He's been on the ice for every Anaheim goal. That's worrying.
