So I'm sure some of you ancient mystery geeks like me have known about these but I thought it would be cool to consolidate this into one resource/discussion thread. Feel free to post ancient cities, mysteries, but let's not teeter off into the ancient aliens bullsh*t shall we? :)

And the ruins don't need to be controversial, maybe just some really cool pictures.

LOCATION 1 - Havana, Cuba Waters (.5 miles in depth)

So the site is too deep to dive but in the early-2000s after its discovery, machines were used to map, take photos, and reveal what lies at the ocean floor. The discovery was validated by National Geographic however not many videos or media have sensationalized the ruins.

Sonar Based reconstructions, again this is 1/2 mile below sea level:

-My take-

This site really fascinates me because of its depth and scale. I do believe it gives further credence to the notion that the countless flood myths around the world have some type of historical basis. When I get a chance I'll be doing one on Dwarka and Yonaguni.

I wish we could see them in their prime.

That to me is the second best reason to travel back in time.

1a is making investments to become a billionare.

1b is sleeping with all your moms when they were hot

Agree haha

I just think even seeing the globe pre-flood would be wild

I don't know how truly accurate this is, but this is what the land would look like around N. America:

Yonaguni Monument, Japan...the south tip of the Ryukyu Islands (Actually quite close to Taiwan)

This one is more heavily disputed in the natural v. man-made category but it clearly warrants good conversation. The sea level dating for this being dry land extends anywhere from 3,000 bb to 10,000 bc. The scale of this thing is crazy and similar to the Cuban monument would match an ancient coastline region. No matter what side of the argument you fall on, this thing is quite the amazing underwater world.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves. And yeah, I'm a Heels fan but I'm specifically using Maye here because he's another young highly drafted QB not an established top tier player. Seems like a fair apples to apples comparison versus using a Mahomes or Allen.

      why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.

      McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
