Did you hear about the blond pulled over by a blonde police officer for speeding?

Officer asked for a license..
Blonde says: „what is that?“
Officer: the thing in your purse with your picture on it.
Blonde hands the officer her pocket cosmetic mirror
Officer opens the mirror case and says ….
„Why didn’t you just tell me first you were one of us, we could have saved all the trouble.“


I hate to say it, but I think you just derailed the thread….Glad to oblige.

Looks like you derailed it. I at least talked about Pickens.

Seahawks DB Nick Emmanwori: 'I'm just scratching the surface' of my ability

Emmanwori said it felt like beating the Rams was for all the marbles, even with the Super Bowl remaining as a hurdle.



"No disrespect to the Patriots or nothing like that. I don't want to take nothing away from them, but that game, it felt like that game was legit," he said of the NFC Championship tilt. "You know how it is with the rivalries. The Rams, they come in, (Matthew) Stafford, he's a hell of a quarterback. (Sean) McVay always got a hell of a plan. That game was definitely different. It was a different type of game. It was live. I was in my zone."

Well he isn't wrong. I wish he was but... I have nothing to say to people who say things like this. The Patriots had a chance to shut all the haters up but instead they proved them all right. So take your lumps and move on. Next year is a new year.

Raiders GM says he expects Maxx Crosby to stay despite trade rumors

Raiders GM John Spytek said he expects star defensive end Maxx Crosby to play for the team in 2026 amid trade speculation.

www.espn.com

Spytek, however, didn't say Crosby is untradeable. Just like the first draft overall pick, Spytek said the Raiders will always listen to trade offers.​

​

"I learned a long time ago, always listen," he said. "I'm always listening."​

​

Crosby's name once again appeared in trade rumors ahead of Super Bowl LX when Fox Sports reported that the five-time Pro Bowler was expected to be traded because he didn't want to go through another rebuild with the Raiders. The Athletic reported that Crosby was especially interested in playing for New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel.​

​

Crosby's future was in question late in the season when the club placed him on injured reserve with two games left because of a knee injury. Crosby was not pleased about the decision and left the building.​

Ravens Have Offered Tyler Linderbaum a ‘Market-Setting’ Deal

The Ravens have made an aggressive contract offer to center Tyler Linderbaum.​

​

General Manager Eric DeCosta spoke to reporters at the NFL Scouting Combine Tuesday and reaffirmed that the Ravens want to retain Linderbaum, who is a pending free agent.​

​

"We've been having conversations, we've had conversations since the end of the season," DeCosta said. "At this point in time, we've made him a market-setting deal proposal offer. Hopefully, we can get something done with him between now and the start of the new league year."​

​

The Kansas City Chiefs' Creed Humphrey, who signed a four-year deal worth $72 million ($18 million per year) in 2024, is currently the league's highest-paid center.​

If he doesn't re-sign, then you know that some of the claims that have been made about him and how he gets along with Jackson are in doubt.

Supposedly, Anthony Richardson has requested a trade from the Colts:

Three moves I haven't seen mentioned:

Titans released Lloyd Cushenberry - OC
Titans released Xaier Woods - S
Commanders released Tyler Biadasz - OC (ended the year on IR missing 1 game with knee/ankle injury that didn't require surgery).

All 3 can sign immediately as they are considered SFA.

What would the Colts need to give up to get a team to take Richardson?
