We acquired Tyreke Evans in a sign and trade. He played for both the Pelicans and Kings…like Peja Stojakovic.

It’s sad, but true. I don’t see a team putting up a statue of him outside their arena.

approaching the end of June, and the halfway point of 2026. How is everyone doing on their called shots?


UMAC +47% (was up 155% at one point)
People in the 60s and 70s had a war and gas shortage and 20+% interest rates. The hippies blamed old people and old people said the new generation was soft.

90s had the dot.com bust and aids and desert storm. Younger kids did the counter culture movement, but not as much complaining.

2000s had 9/11 and the great financial crisis. There was the occupy Wall Street/99%ers, then we had Covid in 2020 and here we are now electing socialist.

Basically, life is always tough for everyone. It’s tougher if you’re lazy or stupid. Every generation blames the one before and every generation thinks the ones after them are lazy or soft. Don’t fall into that trap of blaming someone else for your problems.

That being said, as a Gen Xer, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone complain more than young people today. Not sure if it’s because of social media and more places for them to bitch, or if it’s more that victimization has become in vogue.
I live in a neighborhood full of old people. It’s basically a retirement community. Almost everyone in my neighborhood who mows their grass has an electric push mower. Or they hire someone to mow their grass.

That being said, I have two gas powered mowers, one self propelled and a 20+ year old Craftsman push mower that refuses to die.


You could be watching him in a soap opera.

Carolina Flyers (first in flight nod)
Charlotte Monarchs (nod to being the “Queen City”)
Carolina Catawbas (local river and lost tribe)
Charlotte Bulls (nod to being one of the largest financial hubs in the U.S.)
Carolina Megalodons (fossils found)
Jets have plenty of draft capital. I could see them taking a swing with a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

Teams that need a QB/future QB: Jets, Vikings, Cardinals, Steelers & Browns.

Some teams with QB questions: Texans, Dolphins, Panthers & falcons.

I feel like Ja’s best role would be as an 11th man on a contending team. Someone that can come in and score and be the centerpiece of a second rotation. As a starter, he just seems like he doesn’t really fit into a team role or carry a team to a championship. Kinda like a James Harden or Trae Young.
Trump’s BBB increased spending. Tariffs were done illegally and now we have an increased deficit because he tried to use a shortcut instead of getting a congress he controls to pas a law. Money keeps getting spent on things like walls, ballrooms, TSA bonuses, etc that we were told tax payer dollars would not be spend on. Now we gotta contribute towards a $300B payment.

How/why in the hell do you think he would lower taxes?! Are you living under a rock or something?
Let’s call it toxic tipping culture and get rid of it once and for all.
First and foremost, I hate atlanta. Hate ‘em!!! But they have a lot of talent. QB is an issue, but I’m almost a little afraid that Matt Ryan is going to bring some competence to the organization.

Tampa kinda caught lightning in a bottle two years ago. That lightning is now just a dwindling sparkler that continues to fade.

I like what we are building. I think we are still a year or two away, but hopefully we see some really good play this year.
Watched it today. Not sure why it would get any hate. Fun movie with just enough, but not too much, fan service that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Even my wife who is too young to know anything about He-Man thought it was a fun movie.
Cam was just on GMFB. Said he is approaching this season as his last. He said the defensive line has a bunch of dogs and he would have felt bad/left out if he wasn’t part of it. Said he wants to win and it doesn’t matter if he’s only there to be a coach to the younger guys.

Gotta say I’m really glad he’s back. He’s a great leader and even though he’s older and wasn’t a full time starter last year, he still led us in sacks, TFL and QB hits.
That’s a really smart move IMO. I think the NBA has abandoned a huge potential fanbase in college basketball that would follow college basketball players in the NBA. This creates people that will follow their favorite college baseball players in MLB. I know I became an Astros fan because of Bregman.

Doesn’t hurt that they aren’t taking as much of a chance on college kids and are letting colleges pick up some of the development.

It should also help make college baseball better (talent wise) which makes it more interesting and grows the sport overall.

Great news! Glad they got something worked out.

There will be a ton of competition on the defensive line this year.
I like Pizza Hut pizza. Unfortunately I can’t imagine how the one in our neighborhood could be any worse.
I thought the spy museum was a little cheesy. That being said, I’m almost a 50 year old man. The kids might like it more than the AHM, but I personally would take the AHM every day over the spy museum. Lot of cool movie and music stuff.
