Don't Open unless you want to be even more upset at this draft

I have made 1 comment and 1 thread simply questioning this draft thru the entire weekend. sh!t - even @Jeremy Igo has voiced his dislike 10x more for these picks than I have. I know he's an edgelord, but I wouldn't call him useless...

if the Huddle is not a place where you come to complain - then I don't even know why this place exists...

It's Monday. I'm just breaking balls.

As for Jeremy, of course he's going to walk in and kick the hornets nest every now and again. It creates more discussion. Win/win for him either way.

I gave poo to this thread, but really its not all bad. 98% of threads that have been posted in the last 72 hours are more or less other posters regurgitating  mess they said before, patting themselves on the back, or otherwise knashing teeth about mes they cant change.

 

Ill never get over the homers in here posting every 20 seconds while the draft was live. I've been with the team since the beginning but DAMN! How the fug are you on a website/phone posting literally 2 seconds after a call...racing each other to be the first to say it?

yo -  i wasn't even complaining - i said im fine with the draft and welcome the players with open arms.. jesus - i thought it was interesting that 3 of the top SS/FS people wanted (Reid, Harrison and Watts were all over people's mock drafts) were available to us in consecutive rounds - if we had the Andy Lee pick back..

ya'll some cotdamn females..

I am sold on the first four picks--I think we are going to LOVE Thomas. The defensive backfield will be instantly better, and I think Haynes could be the sleeper in the bunch. 

DId we get everyone we wanted?  No.

Did Hurney leave the reservation at the end of the draft?  Yes--RR got his nose in on it.

I like the Norton pick too.  He is a poor man's Poe.

It is stupid to complain about who we didn't get untill our guy busts and the other guy we didn't pick is terrific. Otherwise who knows at this point which team made the better pick.  You need to focus on who we picked not who we didn't pick 

*Applause*

I'm a fan yes, I watch games yes, I can read a scouting report, but I cook food for a living, I'm trusting my team the scouts the coaching staff guys that do this sh*t 24/7.

    • 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.
