Of course, just my opinion, but heโ€™s not the greatest coach of all time. Saddle him with an ordinary team, or even a good team, he wouldnโ€™t make it past year 3.

Heโ€™s certainly not Landry, Noll, or Shula. May not even be a Tomlin or Reid. And only one coach in his coaching tree has a winning record

Heโ€™ll probably get in, but heโ€™s not first ballot.

Coaching the Pats with Brady and crew mustโ€™ve been a lot like being manager of the โ€˜27 Yankees. All those titles and career 77% win percentage with Brady, 44% without him.

Heโ€™ll probably make the HOF, but heโ€™s not first ballot.

If it werenโ€™t for Brady, he wouldnโ€™t even be coaching now. 76.9 win percentage with Brady, 44.4 without.

Trump's attack on the American mind Behind his closure of the Education Department, his assault on higher education, on science, and on libraries and museums, lie the oligarchs of the techno-state.

Be warned, indeed.

Nice to see you over here, which is where I should be all the time.

Any goals beyond the 5K?

(I did the Marine Corps Historic Half a few years ago. They put on an outstanding event.)

In the parking lot of a Barnes and Noble, and there seems to be a curious lack of pickup trucks. I wonder why?

As much as I may agree with the sentiment, itโ€™s not a great comparison. Mangione is being charged federally, where the death penalty still exists. Virtually all school shooters are prosecuted at or below the state level, and many states have abolished capital punishment.

the idea of being visited by aliens lost its appeal when i realized theyโ€™d likely just be some other planetโ€™s asshole billionaires

I can. If the GOP had had super delegates in 2016, we (probably) wouldnโ€™t have had Trump.

I remember reusing N95s and wearing trash bags as PPE.

I remember a refrigerated truck sitting in the hospital parking lot as a makeshift morgue because ours was overflowing.

But I mostly remember the public downplaying and ignoring COVID, because Trump did.

Waiting for any supporters of the used car salesman ๐Ÿ‘‡to explain this. Arenโ€™t the vaccines supposed to be bad?

Also, 1 million dead in the US.

Why Does No One Understand the Real Reason Trump Won? It wasnโ€™t the economy. It wasnโ€™t inflation, or anything else. It was how people perceive those things, which points to one overpowering answer.

This is a great read. But also, wtf are we supposed to do to fix this? newrepublic.com/post/188197/...

You didnโ€™t happen to be on the Garden State Parkway, did you? Thatโ€™s like an hourly occurrence around here.
