Who would you deem our best WW2 Navy Admiral and why? Obviously each had different roles. I'd love to hear if anyone knows any stories about these fine men.

Quote from: sxdxca38 on Today at 08:58:43 PMI appreciate very much what you have presented here, however, here is how I am seeing it.

I agree with you that not exercising his 5th year option was the wrong move.

However, giving him a new contract after the way he played in 2022 was definitely the right move.

The issue that I have was not the contract itself, but to me it was the size of the contract. If they were to have re-signed him in the range of around 30 million a year, then I think that is fair, but 40 million was too much.

As for your last statement, I would say it is yet to be determined, but this year we will all get our answer.
I appreciate your POV.

I agree that we will see this season if Jones is the guy or not.

Not going to be breaking any ground but this will be a really tough series.  To me, Florida is very similar to Carolina but they have better goaltending

Quote from: T200 on May 17, 2024, 08:47:54 AMI feel like they've made the wrong decisions on Jones every time they had to make one. It's like the "which hand is it in?" game.

- Exercise his 5th year option? Nope, wrong answer.
- New $160 million contract with $92 guaranteed? Nope, wrong answer.
- He'll show he's worth the deal and can be a next-level QB? Nope, wrong answer.

We keep getting snake bit by the Ghosts of Gettleman.

I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we are so thankful that you will be okay.

I'm so sorry for the pain that you are in, and that this even happened to you. Just know that we are all here for you, and if you need to reach out to any one of us, please feel free to do so.

Also, I will say a prayer for you as well, and please hang in there and keep us posted.

Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 08:27:18 PMGoing home on crutches the fracture is a significant one.  My hip is just bruised.   The doc said it's the toe, but it's the joint in the foot.  I might need surgery.   So I will have a busy couple of days visiting the dentist and the foot doctor.  Other than that, I should be okay.
