Minnesota Vikings News

Skoloholics hit a milestone!

The Washington Commanders have handed the Eagles their first loss of the year, wrap-up from NBC Sports.

Look at this stat over at Statmuse, Justin Jefferson now has the most 100+ receiving yard games than any player in NFL history. With Sunday’s performance, his 21 games with 100+ receiving yards beat Randy Moss and Odell Beckham Jr., who were tied at the lead with 20.

Video of the Day

Great song to depict the current state of affairs in our political system.

I see that I just think he has zero chance. It’s a waste bc blue will win again. Don’t get me wrong either I like trump alot and would vote for him but I just think the country is too broken.

Ppl would vote for hitler over trump. Desantis can grab a lot of the middle ppl who refuse to vote for trump

I just want a red president in 2024 and I think Desantis gives us that chance

The timing is completely off for DeSantis.

He’s got to start running now, but if he just up and quits his work as governor he’ll be a goner.

Thank you…yeah we love the area, the house is exactly what we want and we’re getting a great price about 50k under what it’s market value is so we have some cushion if the market values dip which they historically don’t here. I hope she doesn’t kick me out lol….she makes way more than I pull down at the balloon factory.

Depends on where it was and how much land it’s attached to.

Overbuilding is STILL going on around here and prices are starting to take some serious drops. Of course, this is Minnesota, so I know a few handfuls of people leaving to go to somewhere free where they can shoot back.

Interest rates are still going up, so I’d grab something if I had to finance, because another couple of points or more of interest may or may not make up for a 25% drop in price.

Yes. I think the house I would buy now for 900k in Denver is worth 750K in 8 months or so. Thus, it depends on your situation but if you do not need to buy (or will buy all or mostly cash Iike me, 20/80 LTV at most) why the hell would I buy now?

Only caviat is if there is a house/land available that you really like.

Canoe Girl got her house after it had sat on the market for 6 months, but it had everything she wanted in a place she wanted. Even today, not much comes close to what she got.

It all worked out because she got them to knock another 10% off the price since there were very few lookers at the time and that was her max.

She got it on the big dip, and even though it’s dropping every month it’s still worth almost 100% more than what she bought it for, with no real improvements. 100%, even after it’s lost about 9k a month for the last 6 months.

would the housing prices not correlate to the rate market?

benjammin

Reply to  Fivefingers
15 November 2022 6:38 pm

Housing prices would change to reflect interest rates as fewer buyers are qualifying with increased rates. I’d probably buy now and bank on prices stabilizing and interest rates coming back down and values going back up eventually.

15 November 2022 7:15 pm

Also depends on the labor market, how confident are you in maintaining your income? Remember 2008/2009 when the economy took a dump, people were losing their jobs left and right, the housing market took a dive. tons of people ended up upside down in value, couldn’t afford their mortgage because they were out of work and ended up foreclosed on. If we aren’t already in a recession we’re headed there Q1 next year.

You can just have to know the market where you’re buying will maintain values well, know you need to amortize, be a place you plan on staying at for a minimum of 20 yrs, refinance when rates go back down in 2050.

Are you talking at our current position in life or if we were just starting out?

If I was just starting out, I would look for the cheapest home I could afford and start putting sweat equity into it. Much as we did with our first home purchase in 1996.

Today? I need a place to live. I’d buy as much house as I could afford, nothing fancy. Dicker on a cash offer. No more installment debt for me.

Having owned a home for the last 26 years, I just can’t see renting and pissing away cash. If I go back to my early 20’s, the rising interest rates and (so far) stable high prices (although no one is getting more than list anymore in Billings or this area) would probably scare me off, would rent an apartment hoping for rates to drop or prices to drop while I try to save money, which I was not successful at as a wild and crazy bachelor.

I wish I could cut and paste the convo.

I believe there is a bald eagle feeding on the deer carcass. The convo is all over the place, things like:
-birds don’t eat meat, do they?
-it’s huge, I think it would carry Tuck away
-maybe it has a tail
-it must be a bird, there are other birds around it they wouldn’t hang by a coyote would they?

I said walk out there and see, then posted a gif of a kid with a sack of bird seed being chased by ducks (she is terrified of birds).
-no fucking way
-you know me and birds

I know that house a little. Kinda a pit. But man that is a nice location, right next to the park.

Better to find a place on the north side, like Prospect Heights or Horse Thieves Lane.

The “Zestimate” of the 1464 square foot home we bought across from the hospital for $44,000 in 1996 says $606,900, although it has the same owners that bought it from us in 2000. @We should have hung onto it@

Why does DVOA hate the Vikings?

The Vikings have been outgained by their opponents on a per-play basis, 5.92 to 5.52. They have a 45% success rate on offense and have allowed a 47% success rate on defense. They do have a +2 interception margin (eight thrown, 10 taken away) but their outstanding +8 turnover margin is mostly the product of recovering 67% of fumbles (not including muffed kicks).

peterplaysbass
Reply to  peterplaysbass
15 November 2022 3:26 pm

it’s certainly possible that DVOA is underrating the Vikings a little bit. But if you use any kind of play-by-play breakdown instead of just total points scored and allowed, this team is not a top-10 team right now. FPI and EPA per play put them about 12th in the league. That still makes them one of the worst 8-1 teams ever, if not the absolute worst 8-1 team ever. Vegas agrees, making Minnesota a home underdog to Dallas this week.

Interesting conversation with Robert Barnes. Start at 1 hr, 10 min. in, where he goes into “what now?” Includes DeSantis/Trump and the reason MTG and other populists supported McCarthy for Speaker. It was in exchange for his promise to give them subpoena power to investigate Fauci, J6, etc. I still don’t trust the establishment and don’t really like it, but at least we know why. Prior to this conversation, there’s some misc. soccer and other ice breakers in the intro, followed by history of how we got here, which most conservatives already know.

Have you read about ESG? The premier or whatever of Alberta actually called that out and is stopping it. Have you ever delved into this BTW?

Disability experts say the story is not unique in Canada, which arguably has the world’s most permissive euthanasia rules — allowing people with serious disabilities to choose to be killed in the absence of any other medical issue.

The thing people do not fully realize is that the dems filed all these suits and used the scam covid stuff to get it done. Of course the Pubs were late to do anything at all. Now these laws have mail in all over. In many states they still have to count late ballots, ballots w/o sigs, etc etc. It’s pretty sad.

Prior to the 2020 United States presidential election, the covid 19 pandemic caused many states to adjust their voting rules and processes. Litigation was initiated by Democrats, seeking measures to ease voting, and Republicans, seeking to block such measures. “[O]ver 230 election-related federal lawsuits were filed from January 1 to October 23, higher than any of the past three presidential election years during the same time period”, according to a USA Today

“This is money the government can help use to stabilize their economy, to support communities that have been devastated by the Russian onslaught and pay the brave workers that continue to provide essential services to the people of Ukraine,” Biden said from the Roosevelt Room of the White House.

Companies are just selling diesel overseas since there’s a global supply crunch. As they should since it makes them more money.
It was a major reason why we had a positive GDP in October.
You act like there isn’t any diesel and we are all going to starve.
The Markets tight, but in a true crisis we would just simply stop the exports.
You’ know this if you would have paid attention to the GDP articles, but you were too busy being outraged and screaming about fake numbers.

Oh, good to see things are great. Can the US gov’t make them do that? Sort of like a Patriot Act declaration? Would the cost ion a “tight market” not stay high and thus keep inflation robust (I know we don’t count non necessity items like fuel and food in our inflation numbers).

I don’t recall screaming but you then agree the GPD number is bullshit as it is based on irregular exports that have nothing to do with the actual US economy FTMP?

google the Jones act. Suspending it makes shipping the diesel to the North east doable.
See, the Jones act is one of those pesky gov regs that messes with the free market and makes shipping oil from the south to New York much more expensive than it need to be.

So the solution here is to remove a gov regulation.

And stop with the “oh good, things are great nonsense.” I didn’t say that.
You literally invent your own arguments…kinda like an unhinged person would……

I don’t recall screaming

To jog your memory:

My post:

If anyone cares to know what the key details are:

consumer spending slowed to a 1.4% rate from 2% in the prior quarter. Consumer purchases account for about 70% of U.S. economic activity.

So a slowdown here is big.

Imports dropped 6.9%, Exports rose 14.4%. The shrinking trade gap inflated the headline GDP number in the third quarter by adding 2.8 percentage points of growth.

.

Inflation rose at an annual 4.2% annual rate, down from 7.3%. Gas prices

Unbiased future predictions:

Exports will slow and domestic demand will sharply drop from higher interest rates

US will enter a recession in the first half of 2023.

definition of all caps per google:

What does it mean when a letter is in all caps?

yelling

 

used especially in order to emphasize something or show that you are angry: Using all caps is considered yelling online.

Your unhinged response to my reasonable take:

lmao, 4.2%? really? wow, my eggs must be going down…

um, we are in a fkn recession now, by definition. Look at how these lying mfer’s manipulate? WE ARE IN A RECESSION and we have stagflation.

I get that but the refining business was way down and then we start a money laundering event in ukraine so russia’s supply is gone to the actual US citizens/Patriots. So, I guess the US gov’t can takeover the oil companies and force them to sell in the USA but either way the price will remain sky high as now the demand is higher while supply is lower.

It’s $14 per gig or like $45 per month for unlimited. The phones have Verizon sim cards (we have Verizon network extenders at work and have verified this since my phone will connect to the extender). I usually use 1-2 gigs so roll with the by the gig plan but if we are on vacation or I am hunting and use a bunch extra I just switch to unlimited and then back. There are also random wifi networks that Spectrum phones will automatically connect to. The only time I’ve noticed this happening was at MSP yesterday (I don’t think there are many of them in MT). I couldn’t get my laptop to connect the the airport wifi but my phone was working. It was connecting to a Spectrum hotspot so I just hotspotted my phone and connected my computer to that.

They were never the sleeper, they went to the NFC Championship last year. They were winning that game 17-7 going into the 4th qtr. With armstead back and eventually Kinlaw and now with mini me they are going to be tough. 6 of last 8 games at home and play weak sauce

If doubling him doesn’t work, they should try not covering him at all. If Cousins misses open receivers all the time like has been yelled about enough here, Cousins will never see him and hence JJ will not have a single target.

you could argue for Hock, if they lose him it’s a disaster unless they win the Owl.
