Well got orders to Germany yesterday. Going to go to as many games as I can   the rest of this season. 

Can't you negotiate orders with your detailer? When I was in we called our rating (MOS) detailer to see what he had available and we could make a choice or take a chance & wait a few weeks. This started about 6 months before your rotation date.

I don't think I ever got sent anywhere I didn't want to go. That is, until I hit my 19 year mark and they told me I had to go to DC. I kept asking them for another ship, but they were clear that wasn't an option. So I decided to retire on 20.

We have a “market place” now where we rank available assignments and the Army places you based on an algorithm nobody understands. I had Germany as my second option so I’m definitely excited about this. I had Hawaii number one but I’ve already been stationed there previously. Germany will be a 3 year tour - I’m just hoping it’s not Vilsek as I don’t want to spend the next 3 years standing on the Polish-Ukrainian border. Other than my first duty station, I haven’t really been stationed anywhere I didn’t want to go either.

It’s probably Vilsek. We have been bolstering troops all over the eastern front especially in the past little bit.

Patches and Anderson = W

 

also, how sad that KK is demoted all the way to the 4th line.
 

Looking at that lineup if we could trade for a second line Center to replace Stassney that could be another key piece.

A trade for a 2nd line center man would be awesome at the trade deadline!

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Teams do some super stupid stuff with mid-fairly good QBs. I think they are just absolutely terrified they will be stuck with a QB that is not the quality of the QB they have now, even if its someone like Daniel Jones. Lots of trash QBs go in the first round. I encourage you to take a look at the sad, sad list of first round QBs in the last 15 years.

      Okay, now face the facta guyd

      No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.
