Great line from the sequels. There was potential there.

The movie has already grossed >$300 million in the U.S. Statistically more people around you are likely to have seen Avatar than any other movie this year. Maybe people just don't like to talk to you?

And it is also popular in other countries.

If my math is correct, by then Shough and the boys should be going for the 3-peat in the Dome.

This may have been addressed earlier in the thread, but what happened to all the pregnant women being infused with Kali's blood? Aren't they still out there for the military to use?

A 7th rd RB has a good chance to have better stats than Love if we draft an OL Rd 1 vs drafting Love Rd 1 and not adding an OL.

I understand the positional value argument, but this is dumb. And of course we can add OL outside the 1st round.

Dissapointingly only one OG on the list. Also a few tackles and a couple centers. Hopefully some more IOL become available, I'd love to get at least one starting guard in FA to take the pressure off the draft.

re: The case to go to 16

16 seems good to me. Preserves the importance of the regular season (for the most part) but allows enough of the actually good teams in the playoffs, which defines a "successful " season now. No need to stretch to 24 to salvage more bowl games - who cares?, just enjoy the minor bowls as the exhibitions they are. Nothing there needs to be fixed.

Great post. Would've liked to see Stutsman get a mention with the LBs, but probably didn't get as many snaps as their picks. Good to see the media noticing a great Saints draft.

Too much crying on this show. Every scene someone's in tears.

I was fine with Will's conversation with Robin about coming out, it was reasonably well done and touching. I was even fine with that conversation making him a stronger person and unlocking some power - new confidence could do that. But the whole coming out scene at the end of 7 was so looong and so cringe that I had to skip forward a few times. Just bad, bad, bad. Hopefully we can put that behind us and enjoy the finale.

re: Draft Position Thread (Updated 1.4.2025) Saints draft 8th overall

Posted by Handsome Pete on 12/30/25 at 8:33 am to Proximo

So 8 is the highest we could pick. If we beat ATL, then pick 9 is most realistic (Miami loses to NE), but if KC and Cincinnati also manage to lose to the Raiders and Browns, then we could fall to pick 11. That's worst case scenario. Do I have that right?
