for going on Mike and Mike and setting all  these fools at ESPN straight and reminding them what the damn rules are.

Here's Carter's segment. Very thorough.

 

 

Cliff notes: basically said that due to the route Gronk was running and how it was taking hime away from the ball that the ball was uncatchable.  He said Gronk should have done a better job acting at that in the same situation, Carter would have made sure he fell down.  Also said that Gronk should have made an effort to get back to the ball.  On Brady he said that because he did not step into the throw the ball was short and led to the ball being uncatchable.  He said not only was it the right call, but it was not even a question.

Can someone post what Cris Carter said? I gotta go. Video or audio or just a wrap up, it don't matter.

He needs to go to NFLN and set those folks straight. It's clear to see all they do is show up and get paid to tow the ESPN/NFLN line.

 

That female host, I swear she hangs on Brady's manhood. He and the Pats can't do no wrong in her eyes and she will let it be known. These are the folks we depend on to bring us sports news with some OBJECTIVITY!! sheesh

    • 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.
