Get ready for the Cam-brigade to sweep in stating that it's just a tweet (or claiming you have to have arrogance in the NFL)...

That said, it's not much, but is brought to peoples attention simply because of what has proceeded this.

Again, it really isn't anything, but if I were him I wouldn't be touching any social media, interacting through anyone other than his agent (oh wait, it's his dad...) and only doing very controlled media interactions

Personally I don't care, but in this day in age, you ought to have the smarts to realize that you have to watch what you say. It doesn't matter what it is, you have to all times watch what you say and how you say it. He'll take his poo storm like a man...as he should. Still alot of time left to go.

Well, I hope he knows he gets paid to play football first and foremost. Does the comment itself scare me? not really. Does it bring his maturity into question, without a doubt. He has a lot to learn. Personally I was ok with the icon part, but entertainer? That is just a side effect of being great at football, same with being an icon and I do hope we don't pick someone just for attention, he isn't an icon or entertainer in the NFL.

      He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....

      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.
