He didn't play THAT well last week, Michael Vick. Not like the old Vick we know.

he played awesome considering he hadnt taken a snap since august. vick said he would come back to play hard. he was quoted after the houston game saying "i told you guys i wouldnt come back and play scared." he tore carolina apart last year. i look for him to do the same sunday night. hes got something to prove.

Well my Bucs are done this year which is good since I couldn't bare to wonder if they would show up every other week. I think now is a good time to get Keshawn go which is pretty much official. I would also let Sapp go since he is past his prime and not worth the money. Since this draft coming up is a wide receivers draft dream than the bucs should use their high first rounder for a WR. We should work on our OL as well. I think our defense is fine. Replacing Sapp with just a big guy should do us fine and getting back Kelly and the others will make all the difference. We will be a very good team next year but not quite enough until the year after which we will get another draft and be replacing Brad with Chris Simms. Simms is the best ball faker I have ever seen. Just wait in two years time we will be a very very good team if not the best.

Now on another note I think Indy is good but not great. There is only one thing that bothers me with Indy is that if Payton goes down they would be very below average team. To be honest Payton is the team. Now what bothers me even more is that Payton has gone what 150+ games without an injury and I don't care who you are but in the NFL those streaks are not very common at all and it just seems like its waiting to happen. I don't wish injuries on any player but it just seems like its a matter of time for Indy to have Payton hurt.

I think the Pats are looking real good and are a threat if they keep on playing the same. I don't think the Panthers will make it far into the playoffs. They have had so many close games that they should have lost that I don't think they will pull those out of their as*es in the playoffs against the Eagles, Packers or whichever team makes it. They will not win two games even with a bye and they would be lucky to win one game.

I don't really know what will happen which is why the NFL is so great because it isn't the same 5 teams every year. The teams with the best records last year have the worst this year and the teams with the worst records last year have the best this year. Where else will you find Parity like that. That is exactly why the NFL is the number one sport and why no other sport even comes close to even touching the NFL.

Where do you all think Kurt Warner will be next season??

out of rams possibly and maybe retired with Favre. his career is almost over. he should have been greedy and played when mike martz asked him to. maybe he did for the team but he missed an opportunity to get some practice. he has been on the sidelines for 10 games or so. kurt warner is pretty much done as a player. :no:

yeah i dont think kurt warner has much left either. but im sure someone would sign him to be a backup. if he wanted, hes the type that could stick around and be a backup and teach young QBs til he was 40 or so. see: steve deberg

I've been disenchanted with the NFL ever since the Lions screwed Barry Sanders over.

Don't remind me! I used to live in the Detroit area, watching barry was our only highlight :yes:

And to think if he kept playing, poor emmit smith would be no where near that rushing record!

Lighten up people! I really don't think the NFL is boring. I always get into "baseball vs. football" debates with my friend. :devil: I've been disenchanted with the NFL ever since the Lions screwed Barry Sanders over.

Interesting. I believe it was Barry Sanders leaving the team in the lurch AFTER the draft. If he cared anything for the team, he would have let the team know his intentions so they could have drafted a RB.

Barry quit poorly. He even admitted it.

Good for Emmitt, though. Whoohoo!

    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI by David Uzondu The Ladybird Browser Project has announced it will no longer accept public pull requests and will limit changes to those made by its maintainers as it works towards its first alpha release. According to Ladybird's creator Andreas Kling, this is "not a change we make lightly," but the rapid shift in AI capabilities forced their hand. Previously, a massive PR implied that the person behind it put a lot of care into the code and is ready to "answer for the consequences." Now with AI, anyone can generate a PR without even understanding the bug fix or feature they want merged. The blog post goes on to say that the team is closing all open public pull requests immediately, and that maintainers will not treat external forks as a review queue for upstream Ladybird. Instead, the team wants outside contributors to focus on reporting bugs and running tests. Kling started Ladybird back in 2019 as LibHTML, a simple HTML viewer for his hobby operating system, SerenityOS, but by September 2022, it had turned into a full-fledged browser project. What sets Ladybird apart from the likes of Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox is its totally independent engine, which does not rely on pre-existing codebases. The project maintains a strict policy against default search engine deals or user data monetization, keeping development funded entirely by donations and sponsorships. Generative AI is forcing open source project maintainers to rethink how they handle public code contributions (and the whole open-source thing in general). One month ago, a leak about the National Health Service (NHS) suggested the organization was planning to take all of its public repositories private ahead of a May 11 deadline, thanks to Mythos (an AI model that Anthropic believes is too dangerous to be released to the public) and its ability to find and write exploits for zero-day vulnerabilities. Thankfully, the Government Digital Service (GDS) issued a counter-report titled "AI, open code and vulnerability risk in the public sector" that stopped the shutdown by pointing out that hiding code does not improve security.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
