Blandino sucks. We were robbed a ton of times under him, including in the Super Bowl and all of last year with illegal hits on Cam.

You guys should be 4-0 right now. Hoping for a good game Sunday!

Man, as much as I wanted the Falcons to lose, that was not a BS call. It was the exact, fair call. Anything else would have been BS.

Again... I would have loved to have seen the Lions win, but upon review, he's clearly down. If they don't review it, they never get a snap off in :08; and the rule says if you don't have any timeouts remaining and there's a review, there's a :10 run off. 

How exactly was Detroit robbed here? 

They shouldn't have thrown it short of the goal line. It's their own fault they're 3-1. Blame Stafford, not the refs.

I think they could have gotten a snap off in 8s. The rule was enforced correctly but it is a stupid ass rule that robbed the Lions. 

What if it was :06 left. Or :01? Is it a :stupid ass rule" then? I don't think setting the rule at :10 is unreasonable. Watch the clock next time a team runs a play and see how long it takes everyone to get back in position and run an actual play - not just spike it, either, because it was 4th down in this situation. Ten seconds is very reasonable.

There's plenty of things to shake your head at in the NFL. This isn't one.

They absolutely could have ran to the line and got a snap off

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
