Big Situation to Keep an Eye On: Blackburn or Klein?

Klein was a big part of the win in San Fran the first time around, and yet, when Blackburn has been healthy, more often than not, he has gotten the nod over Klein. I think Klein's speed is vital, especially on passing downs, versus the Niners. But, Blackburn is a heady guy, an emotional leader, and just always seems to be in the right place at the right time.

Who do you hope sees more time and who do you expect to play more?

Kleins abilities trump playoff experience. That term is so overused it's not even funny. From peewee to pros you play for championships, you play in one and done tournaments. The only teams who are in trouble are the ones who are used to not giving 100% every week. You train your mind how to behave beginning in the offseason. If you take days off, you take plays off, then you have an off game. Get your mind right and the body will follow.

      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.
