Talked about this with my friend earlier. Hawks made a mistake, now make it right by bringing him back and let him retired here. Besides the dude can still ball and brooks won’t be able to start beginning of the season. 
 

he will be a valuable asset for this young defense 

Seahawks have a shot at being pretty good next year. Bring him back.

He proved last year he still have a lot left in the tank. But hawks won’t sign him for vet min so that’s a challenge. would love to see him back for a few more years and let him retired here.

“According to the report, Wilson asked Seahawks ownership in February 2022 to fire Carroll and general manager John Schneider with hopes that the team would hire Sean Payton to be the coach.”

I actually caught the 4th quarter, was entertaining to watch and to see Josh Gordon out there!

Wilson developed an infatuation for Payton during the pro bowl it sounded like and went to Jody Allen asking for the change it sounded like. Good old Russ!

I'm actually really enjoying the XFL...  They have a couple stuff on there that I think the NFL should consider adopting, especially with the kickoff rules. That actually might help reduce some serious injuries (remember Ricardo Lockette?) and it looks more exciting because there is always a chance the returner can cut through the gaps for TD. I think 80% of the NFL kickoffs are touchbacks, even though it's safer, it's boring.

I work with a lot of hockey fans back in New Hampshire. I’ve tried to get interested in the Kraken. They were playing the Bruins last night so I turned it on but only made it 20 minutes and then turned it. It looks like a really exciting sport, but not growing up with it I just can’t find it in myself to care.

Hallmark has 3 channels and EVERY SINGLE COMMERCIAL BREAK they do the exact same commercials about their upcoming movies. That's 432 times a day for the same commercial. For one channel it's 144 times a day.

They have to pay Lacey Chabert‘s salary somehow!

2023 Weather Forums March Madness is coming with the usual rules of me picking out 100 posters and then choosing 68 the same way as the last 2 years.

Potential list of contestants is growing.

Basically I go through recent posts to find 100 members and their IDs and then generate profile links from a C# program (so I can get posts and reputation)and create a formula to rank them, after which they are matched up with colleges from the real March Madness.

Members advance throughout the tournament bracket according to how the colleges perform. You can see the last 2 years in the Off Topic.

What is weighed most heavily in your algorithm? Reactions and reputation?

It uses this formula.

0.5 * (Member's Posts/Most Posts in List) + 0.5 * (Member's Reputation/Highest Reputation in List)

You can find the member IDs by hovering over their names

Used to be much easier before when the old format had a ranking of members by post count, but maybe there's an SQL query admins could use to get the info.
