The fire budget cut thing has been debunked and is misinfo. Someone misread about a city fire fund re-allocation. Overall fire budget actually increased by 50M YoY. 
 

And the reason the fire hydrants were dry is bc the utility cut off electricity to keep more fires from sparking with the high winds/downed trees, thereby unfortunately also cutting off the water pumps.
 

California’s fire issues are because of environmental conditions - not government mismanagement. 
 

That said, Karen Bass is weak and has been terrible with the press. 
 

My suggestion to people - especially as we go into the 2030’s is don’t live in California or Florida. 

SMH.  Okay.

Hats off to oldschool for taking the L.    If I’m wrong about something I will as well 

Vrabel inherited a good team that was bolstered by Derrick Henry, Kevin Byard, and later Ryan Tannehill, all playing in their primes, and then AJ Brown, Corey Davis, and Jonnu Smith - all behind a ver

well fuck. The L is mine. I'm man enough to admit it.

I'm local here.  We've been asking Governor Newsom to do simple forest management for years. He's ignored us and have taken every photo op to pretend to care about California's wildlife, the homeless, and sending desperately needed water out into the ocean.  Trump's been mentioning forest management and water reallocation every time he talks about California dating back years.  And lack of water is an actual thing here. 

If you don't know what you're talking about, it's fine to plead ignorance.  You probably know much more about Ukraine, Russia, and your local issues in your part of the woods, but the locals in California are now seeing the outcome of horrible policies that they have enacted by voting in these idiots who'd rather virtue signal than actually improve the lives of the inhabitants. 

If California stays blue, we are fucking doomed.

I thought PK's discussion on Brinker's magic number of 7 impact playmakers that directly affect the outcome of games is a pretty clear signal that Brinker has a clearly defined roadmap in how he wants to build this team, and I would be willing to bet QB/EDGE/WR are the top 3 priorities on his list right now.

Agreed 100%. I love the things he says and has said. I don't love the recent track record of the team or the roster construction from this past season. I'm hoping that he'll back up his words with the same conviction he expresses those thoughts and hires the right people who believe in the same vision.

Finally a fair and balanced discussion regarding the events that led to the firing of Ran Carthon and not some emotional Carthon loving rant like 99% of the local media has been having over the last 48hrs.

 

 

My take away is..... dude Brayden has gotten fat.

Carthon, Pierce and Mayo were DEI hires.  It’s that simple.  They were used to push the social agenda of the NFL and have been pushed aside.  No one cares about the actual person on the other end of these stupid race based programs.  They don’t work for anyone.  I don’t see how this is not apparent to all.  They were hired because of racism but they were fired because they were incompetent.  

Do you say things like this to provoke arguments?  Every DEI won't succeed, just like not all GMs succeed.  It's about creating equal opportunity.  Without DEI they will never get the chance.  The NFL has come a long way.  First, only whites could play.  Then blacks were allowed to play, but only certain positions.

 

The last position blacks were allowed to play was QB.  In 1968 Marlin Briscoe was the first black starting QB.  Doug Williams was the first black QB to play in the SB, 1988.  The first time two black starting QBs faced off in the SB was 2023.  The NFL started in 1920.  103yrs for that game to happen and the race of the QBs wasn't the top billing promotion.

 

DEI and other efforts to promote fairness and equality work to give all people an equal chance.

I never screamed racism though, he did.

I wasn't arguing on a side for anyone. Just trying to understand complicated situations  that have a history of racism and whether that history is showing it's ass or not. 
 

I could easily see it but won't claim it without good data.

Kuharsky dives into the report about perceptions of Ran not living up to the expectations of the job. Defends his report. He says he thought people would be split, but instead, he's talked to several people in the building, and the feeling is a relief. He said that the perceptions came from more than one person, that he had at least 4-5 sources, and that none of it came from Brinker. He was pretty adamant on the last part. 

 

Just thought I would share. 

It seems weird to me that PK was the only reporter that was fed this narrative.  Maybe others were, and did not feel comfortable running with it, or maybe they went to PK knowing that he would have no problem running with it, either way, it's weird to me, and it's just not a good look.

Others alluded to the same things. Freeze said it was a terribly kept secret that Carthon wasn't in charge. Reising alluded to having heard things he wouldn't report on, etc. If you want to criticize Kuharsky for putting it out there and kicking the guy after he was already gone, I get that, but the reports do sound to be credible.
