It’s one thing when the site is obviously satire but they’re clearly trying to appear as a real news site. It’s so unnecessary

Well the mechanical inscentive is the time and money it takes to revive them. It’s pretty negligible eventually, but it’s a pretty big deal at low levels.

WR Chase Claypool traded from the Chicago Bears to the Miami Dolphins in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think this is worse than missed draft picks (especially guys that by all rights should’ve been at least decent) because they already knew exactly what kind of player he was and still traded what they knew would be a high second for him. People were calling it a bad trade immediately and it only got worse from there.

I think you’re totally right, but that means they traded essentially a first round pick for something that was such a negative they wanted to get rid of it for literally anything

I definitely don’t want him fired or anything but they picked a really awkward time to do this after that total collapse last week.

Also, aren’t executive orders still subject to Supreme Court rulings? What would stop them from just overruling it again?

Now that we're finally out of reddit, can we finally get different tag for NSFW and NSFL? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Personally I’ve never liked the idea of NSFL. It just doesn’t feel like it has the eighth connotation, it’s wording feels like it’s meant to be a joke when it’s content is rarely funny. I think just using “Gore” or “Death” would be absolutely better.

Joe Namath attacks ‘haywire’ Jets as team stay loyal to stumbling QB Wilson in c/[email protected]

Matt Ryan I think is just too far past his prime. I’d actually bring in Wentz to at least try. But that’s assuming he’d take a smaller contract, his pride seems to be a problem.

I guess we’ll have to just agree to disagree. Ultimately I don’t think they have a great chance either way, but I think that chance is 0 with Wilson whereas a slightly more unknown quantity (as in, we haven’t seen them on this exact team) at least is something different. If it turns out to also be 0, you really didn’t lose all that much. It just seems 100% worth the risk to me with a team this good. Literally everything but the QB and the OL to a certain extent is excellent.

Josh Jacobs agrees to one-year deal worth up to $12 million with the Raiders, AP source says (apnews.com)
 

So he gets slightly more than the franchise tag, but I’m not sure how this helps him much since it just means he’ll be in the same situation next year.

The 49ers are naming Sam Darnold their No. 2 quarterback and the team is exploring options with Trey Lance (x.com)

Seems trading Lance is on the table, but I’m not sure he’d fetch much, and definitely nothing close to what the 49ers gave up for him.

Looking to add friends to exchange gifts (lemm.ee)
 

I started playing again recently and I have a special research to add new friends. I’d also like to be able to exchange gifts with someone from a different biome for the Vivillon patterns.

Anyone want to share friend codes?

Is there any way to see if there’s something wrong with my account? (lemm.ee)
 

I’ve been having issues with my account for over a week. I made a post here a week ago detailing some of the issues (I made it on the wrong account and I can’t even see it on this account now). Essentially, every community I visit that’s not on Lemm.ee will be missing posts and I can’t see any of my own posts. I’ve tried through Memmy and the website with the same results. I also tried making a post on a community from a different instance and it posted to a completely different community on a completely different instance. And then when I tried to go back to it to delete it, I couldn’t find it because I can’t see my posts, eventually someone commented on it and I could get to it through my inbox.

This is already my second account so I could get off lemmy.world and I’d like to not have to create another one so I’d love any insight on steps I can try to resolve this. Or worst case, delete this account so I can try remaking it with the same username. I like this instance so I’d like to be able to use my account here if possible.

Bengals and Packers scuffle during joint practice ahead of their preseason opener on Friday night (apnews.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/3720432

This is the second year in a row the Bengals have had a fight at a joint practice, but it seems like a Packers player started this. One player does say this would never happen in a game but practice is a little different because there’s no consequences. I think this is a good example that there probably should’ve been consequences for Aaron Donald last year, that was definitely over the top and that would make players think twice about it.
