Dan Morgan: Panthers to sign QB Bryce Young to long-term deal 'at the right time'
Picking up Bryce Young’s fifth-year option was the no-brainer move. The more difficult decision is whether the former No. 1 overall pick has done enough yet to warrant a contract extension from the Panthers.

I'd forgotten Slow Streets used to have not just the "local traffic only" sign, but "road closed to through traffic" as well. Both gone now. Slow Streets got so watered down. (2022 photo)

Tree-lined residential street with a row of three posts at the entrance, extending from the right side about 1/3 across the roadway. From left to right, a flex post, a "local traffic only" sign with pedestrian and bicycle icons against a bright yellow background, and a "Slow Streets" sign with icons for various types of pedestrians and nonmotorized wheeled implements. On the sidewalk, above a diamond sign warning of speed humps ahead, a square sign with a white background says "road closed to t…

A lot of conservative thought includes the idea that people should be humble and not make others look bad by being exceptional.
Fuck that.
Consider how it is even worse to not live up to your potential, to deny the universe of the potential you hold- what kind of lazy parasitic shit is that?
Respect yourself!
Be the best you can be- don't waste the amazing perspective that only you can embody. You let your team down when you live and think smaller than your poten…

Trump has begun many recent mornings watching video clips compiled by military officials of battlefield successes.
He has told advisers that being the commander in chief to eliminate the nuclear threat posed by Iran could be one of his signature achievements.
But Susan Wiles, according to two White House sources, was concerned aides were giving the President a rose-colored view of how the war was being perceived domestically,
telling Trump what he wanted to hear instead o…
