Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
Iām with Derka on this. Dude knows ball, and heās been on this one from the beginning. I am hoping Quinn Ewers makes it as a career 3rd option/scout team QB for a few years and I think he might, but heās certainly not a starter and I donāt think heās a backup either, because based on his entire body of work I donāt see any reason to believe he can start multiple games in a season for an NFL team.

Wordle 1,514 4/6 ā¬ā¬šØšØā¬ š©š©ā¬ā¬ā¬ š©š©š©ā¬š© š©š©š©š©š© I should have had this in this three but mistyped on my third attempt and learned a new word- Shit I've Cooked Lately
This is one of my favorite techniques recently- a great example of something that seems labor intensive but is actually super easy and has a very large margin of error. The braid adds texture while helping to retain moisture and prevent overcooking while allowing for a very good crust to form. I used flat irons for this, but flank and Sierra cuts work really well too. You just need a relatively thin steak that is the right shape. Step one: Get a couple of flatirons Gather your audience, and cut the steaks into three long strips: using toothpicks to secure the ends, braid the steak strips, and dry them for a couple hours in the refrigerator if you have time. Reward helpers dry rub 10-12 mins on each side, direct contact. I did cast iron on the gas grill here, you can also just bury it, unwrapped, in hot coals for 15 mins or so. Remove from heat, and then it is extremely important to let it rest for 10 mins so it doesnāt dry out when you cut it. THEN after the rest, Chop it up to your desired consistency serve- thatās watermelon mint salad with feta lemon juice and salt on the side .- The Democratic Party
His mother is Mira Nair- a world famous, Academy award winning movie director. His father is Mahmoud Mamdani, a Columbia professor and one of the most important public intellectuals in the world. AND, thereās nothing wrong with that, but itās not as though heās risen from obscurity.- The Democratic Party
??? Gosh that breaks my heart- The Democratic Party
But he is so deeply unserious. Iām aware that people are excited about this guy, and I think that may be because he makes Republicans so angry, I donāt know. But Iāve been paying attention to the whole campaign and this guy has given me zero reason to believe heās going to accomplish anything other the win an election. Putting him in the same sentence as AOC and Bernie Sanders (as someone did above)illustrates just how ridiculous this is. He has offered no reason to think heās in their class. Heās less substantial than Greg Cesar, for example.- The Democratic Party
Cuomo is a serious, heavyweight nepobaby. Seriously flawed and problematic, but heās got a track record of bureaucratic management. Why are you guys so protective of Mamdani? Itās super weird.- The Democratic Party
Totally- I meant to respond to this earlier. You are absolutely right, but there are two issues conflated here: 1) proceedural friction related to all housing and 2) procedural friction for capital A Affordable housing, which is typically higher than market rate housing. in most cities, the housing shortage is universal and the greatest pain is in middle income bands. That is a shortage of market rate housing, which therefore means the top of the market MUST be met before housing is available to middle incomes. In other words, NYC needs a lot more āluxury housingā because of āElite Overproduction.ā Mamdani is trying to address housing as a bottoms up problem of poverty. Not only is that the most time and cost intensive approach, it also doesnāt meet the general shortage annd therefore the bulk of the local workforce unless a general recession wipes out the middle of the market. In which case your affordability problem gets worse since prices fall, but more slowly than income.- Wordle [spoilers inevitable but discouraged]
Workmanlike- The Democratic Party
Well, again, since I pay for housing in NYC, and housing costs are the engine that drives his candidacy, his positioning of housing seems pretty salient. That said, the Dems freaking out about what could happen are just as silly as the Mamdani defenders who frame him as some kind of counterpoint to Trump in a country thatās burning: the ascendancy of Mamdani is mostly irrelevant to the Federal situation. And at the local level Mamdani is just more of the same old shit NY and other high priced big cities have been doing since the GFC, warmed over. Itās just a CTRL+C, CTRL+P of DeBlasio. Because at this point it looks like thereās nothing coming from him that will really move the needle on housing costs. Maybe that doesnāt seem bad to you, but the one thing everyone with skin in the game agrees about is that the rent is too damn high in NYC. I canāt imagine a less comparable thing than a Federal election in Canada and a Municipal election in NY. Well, I do, and Iāve seen this movie before, except with better, more serious people than him and his staff. I wish him well, but my expectations are low. People predicting disaster right now are approximately as silly as those who did the same thing when DeBlasio was elected. But the people who expect good things from Mamdani have even less reason to expect them than those who thought DeBlasio would transform the city for the better. Yep, all true. Thatās why Mamdani will win, and you donāt get to do anything unless you win. But thatās not in conflict with anything I said. And we can be honest about whatās happening here: a deeply unserious, lightweight nepobaby is about to take charge of the biggest and most complicated municipal enterprise in America. This guy makes Steve Adler look like a mindmeld of Robert Moses and Fiorello LaGuardia. He ran a great campaign, and I hope he does great things, but my expectations are under the floor.- The Democratic Party
I thought that the distinction between municipal government and the Republic was self-evident, my apologies. Let me help you with that: 1) Mamdani will win, and heās by far the best of three bad options. 2) What he proposes for housing in NYC is not bold change, but more of the same 3) Framing this race and the issues involved in terms of Trumpism and the country is a category error. 4) Most of the people defending Mamdani on this thread donāt seem to know much about what he proposes or the issues involved, which makes sense because this is a University of Texas sports forum and Mamdani is running for mayor of New York City.- Wordle [spoilers inevitable but discouraged]
Wordle 1,513 3/6 ā¬ā¬ā¬ā¬ā¬ ā¬šØšØšØā¬ š©š©š©š©š©- The Democratic Party
Oh. Well then by all means you should lean into such stupidity.- The Democratic Party
Yāall realize Mamdani isnāt running for Mayor of America, right? Local issues are local. Jesus.- The Democratic Party
Heās going to win. Heās the best option. That doesnāt mean I have to be happy about it, and since I currently pay more for my daughterās half of a 600sf 4th floor walk up on the Lower East Side than I do for my mortgage in Austin, I have skin in this game. What you donāt understand, apparently, is that the entire Mamdani phenomenon IS the status quo of Housing in NYC, repackaged for TikTok. Promise to defend it either way, please. I know you guys are watching the details super closely. I mean look at this: Bravo- this is a super relevant point of comparison. So Mamdani is the opposite of Trumpism? So the tide turns here? Do I have that right? Does that mean NYC is a microcosm of America? Great stuff. You should be on Joy Reidās podcast or something. Time. We lose time to deal with the housing shortage in New York. Iām not sure what you lose. Probably nothing. But thatās the American Progressive in a nutshell: the privilege to fail without consequence.- The Democratic Party
