Another QB playing really good football that no one is talking about is #GenoSmith - played another really good game yesterday & the degree of difficulty in his throws may be higher than anyone in NFL!!

The goal of the draft isn't to get the highest pick or the most picks but to GET THE BEST PLAYERS. Why would we trade one of our best players for more draft picks? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?!
Boomer makes the case for why trading Garrett Wilson could make sense: "Do him a favor"

Jets had one of their best offensive games in years and still lost! How?! That one hurt.

Thank god I'm not in college
FYI: In the next couple weeks virtually every AI service will have a built in invisible watermark in text that will flag anything as AI generated no matters the way in which you use it. What this means is that if you use AI to even check for spelling errors or grammar your entire document will be flagged as AI and invalidated. This is going to create a whole heap of problems for people as we enter the Salem Witch Trials of AI accusations. As of now we believe ChatGPT in the US is still cuck free but pretty much all of the AI companies in Europe are cooked. Maybe someone in the comments can provide the exact list.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
OpenAI watermarks ChatGPT text only in the EU; Anthropic marks newer Claude models worldwide; Gemini has used SynthID since 2024. The marks are only in AI-written text, weaken with editing, and detector access is restricted. tech.yahoo.com/ai/chatgpt/art… techcrunch.com/2026/08/11/ant…

Should have taken that hybrid role in 2023
REPORT: Anthropic will make 1,000+ employees worth more than $100M if it IPOs at a $2T valuation That's every employee hired before 2024 About 1 in 70 people in America with $100M+ net worths will be Anthropic employees. That rises to 1 in 50 including OpenAI, if it also succeeds in its IPO 3,000+ Anthropic employees will be millionaires Only SpaceX has minted more millionaires at 4,400
