That’s quite a lot of HC jobs lost. Maybe the owners can be the GM and HC too. Raiders might as well court Tomlin too. Btw the way, I’m available. I sure can’t be worse as them have been.

USPS is releasing a forever stamp to honor Bruce Lee on February 18, 2026. Stamp shows Bruce Lee in a flying side kick with a background of yellow brush stroke that gives respect to the color of the jumpsuit that Bruce Lee wore in “Game of Death”. The flying side kick makes it appear the he is breaking in half the words “Bruce Lee USA Forever”. I’m guessing that a book of this forever stamp might cost $18, which is a normal price for USPA Forever Stamps. I’ll be getting at least 2 books for myself.

Raiders search for a new head coach is ramping up. Sure they need a HC since they fired their last HC. It might help them next season but getting an iconic HC didn’t help them one bit last season at all. Better QB and Offensive Line is what they need. Imho!!

I might be way out there in left field but I’m starting to agree with my friend, Dwight, who’s a Seahawks fan, that the NFL is rigged. How so?!? I’m not sure. I’ve no proof other than by watching the games. You think the missed kicks, throwing it directly to the other team, and questionable penalties are above par?? How does the Bears beat the Packers. At one time the Packers lead the game in the end of the 3rd quarter 21-6. Games end, it was Bears 31 and Packers 27; Bears scored 25 points in the 4th quarter to the Packers 6 points. Packers had a 3rd and 2. Love could’ve easily ran it but he threw a 40 yard pass…and 4th and 2 they punt?!? Something smells fishy. Like pro-wrestling, the NFL knows games outcome before the game starts. Gambling plays a huge role now. The NFL now feels like a version of the Black Sox to me. Something’s fishy on the gridiron. IMHO!!

What’s those books about, Patrick??

Very good choice!!

This would be tai sabaki, correct? Yes.Tai Sabaki allows one to avoid an attack, in such a manner that the defender who’s receiving said attack ends becoming in an advantageous position. Tai Sabaki is akin to Ashli Sabaki…footwork and Te Sabaki…handwork.

That’s why it’s so great to be a HC in the NFL. If, I mean, when you get fired, and the wheels temporarily fall off, TADA, you’re hired by another team for how ever long that lasts. HC’s in the NFL are recycled like yesterday’s real bad nightmare. The show must go on!!

Once again…NFL HC jobs are like a tight rope walker’s career…NFL/Not For Long.

Well…YEAH!! Why not!! My bubble just got burst!! The NFL will not allow Brady to return to the gridiron for one simple reason: his role as a minority owner of the Raiders. NFL created a rule back in 2023 that prohibits non-family employees of an owner from holding equity in a team. Brady of he QB’d for the Raiders would be an employee; a conflict of interest. Well…darn it.

It’s all good my friend!!

I know it’s not of any consequence nor a possibility but why don’t the Raiders entertain, even if just for a second, ask Tom Brady to return to the NFL gridiron to QB for 1 season for the Silver and Black?!? After all, Tom has an interest to see the Raiders get out of the gutter. Unless there’s some NFL rulings that would prohibit that.

At my age, my only resolution is to awake each morning to a new day.

Cowboys lost to the Giants 34-17. Raiders ALMOST loss against the Chiefs. With only just over 1 minute remaining in the game the Chiefs went ahead 12-11. I was sure that the Raiders were done for once again. That was until the Raiders kicked a 60 yard field goal for the win. Raiders owner Mark Davis has fired head coach Pete Carroll… “The Las Vegas Raiders have relieved Pete Carroll of his duties as head coach. We appreciate and wish him and his family all the best. Moving forward, General Manager John Spytek will lead all football operations in close collaboration with Tom Brady, including the search for the club's next head coach. Together, they will guide football decisions with a shared focus on leadership, culture, and alignment with the organization's long-term vision and goals”. ~ Mark Davis This wasn’t surprising whatsoever. Once again the NFL means, in Pete Carroll’s case, Not For Long. As usual at seasons end, head coaches are fired for cause. Hopefully, for my wife’s sake, the Raiders don’t waste their #1 pick and actually draft some solid players in key positions, namely QB and Offensive Linemen. As far as my Cowboys…well…too bad that Jerry Jones can’t be fired as GM. Isn’t football fun?!?

Why?? His abilities wouldn’t help the Chiefs?!?
