I think the MP trade & contract highlights the unsustainable, “peak capitalism” dysfunction of paying a QB $55M and an Edge $47M in the modern NFL, let alone a high-priced WR1. Maybe Jerrah and FailSon were concerned about the “locker room vibes” when you pay 2 dudes 36.5% of your salary cap?

The fascinating part of Douglas and Pope Countlies’ big lakes was that the lakes lie within “tunnel valleys” that hosted Superior Lobe ice, when the Des Moines lobe covered the area. Minnewaska, Carlos and Ida all parallel the subglacial meltwater valleys they exploited as stagnant ice.
