Yeah I knew about the MS Surface ipads. I just lumped them all into Apple mode. Just because I'm lazy and it just doesn't matter what we call them. I don't even own anything Apple.

I keep seeing this crap of trading Rodgers to Vegas and they get Carr in return and I ask why do we want that cap hit? Also I am guessing the Raiders will have to ask Adams before anything as the reason he went to the Raiders was to be with Carr and left Rodgers at the alter. Now my guess as who would be the best trade partner to me would be Seattle. Geno is a FA after the year and the Seahawks have $50 million in cap space, they have 2 stud wideouts and a young back. They also have the picks to give up by using their own 1sts and 2nds. (They are currently standing with the #3 pick and could actually move all the way to #1 from Denver) They have Geno and Lock as FA so they have to sign someone, so trade for Rodgers for 2 years or 3 maybe and with the early pick grab one of the stud QBs to let him sit for a couple years. Would Rodgers go there is the question and I say he would as I think he would love to be able to play SF twice a year and to stick it to them.  So to me that would be the best case scenario especially if they lose their last 2 then we could get #9 overall. But then again people will say it will never happen because we would make Seattle stronger, but I am not planning for Super Bowl in Loves first year so let Seattle battle for it as we know he will choke in the playoffs anyway.

They now steal and bully their technologies away from small time developers (e.g. people like me) and small companies. They know they can drag litigation out with their big shot lawyers and eventually force small companies to "settle". They have done this dozens of times. 

One thing that I do respect and admire about Apple is they have brilliant marketing strategy. Granted, when asked why they charge so much for the iPhone, the head sales person remarked "people view iPhone as status symbol" and inferred they knew they can charge whatever they want and the clowns will still buy it up. Nowadays Samsung steals from Apple. Apple steals from Samsung. The phones are similar in features with the exception that Apple still forces you to be an Apple sheep whereas Samsung (for the most part) allows you freedom.

Terrified anyone might share a file. Fuck the Empire.

And about the Seattle rumor, no I don’t think so. I was just responding to dhazer’s suggestion.

I don't think any QB with great options is going towards Pete Carroll and his old school philosophy...

Basically run the ball and play defense for 3 quarters... and only wants to pass the ball to get them out of holes ... otherwise he just wants a game manager QB.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
