@JeffDuncan_ I am a HARD “NO” to a QB at 9. Dart at 40? Maybe? I’d rather not take a QB in this draft. The Saints have too many other holes.
What would I do? Roll with Rattler. If Rattler pans out, you got your guy. If not, you effectively tanked for the 2026 draft.

I'm not sure who the Saints are going to pick at No. 9 on Thursday night. But I think I can safely say that it won't be Shedeur Sanders.

It is truly an honor to serve President Donald J. Trump and be part of an administration committed to putting America first. I pledge to work tirelessly every day to identify the challenges we face and find the solutions that will Make America Safe Again, freeing us from the grip of deadly substances like fentanyl, heroin, opioids, and other dangerous drugs. I am ready to serve at the pleasure of the President, bringing with me years of experience in investigating cartels, terrorists, human and drug traffickers. My greatest desire is to ensure this nation remains secure and safe—for my children, and for yours. America’s greatest resource is our people and it will be up to each and every one of us to do our part - I promise you I will never stop fighting.
Thank you @realDonaldTrump for your faith and trust in me. Thank you to my family for their love and supporting me in this next chapter in our lives.
God Bless America.

I asked the only Bot i currently respect on X, Grok3, the following scenario and this was the response:
You’re deploying 50% of your net worth into crypto for a 4-year hold starting today, February 19, 2025, and you want a single allocation—either a crypto asset or a crypto-related stock. This is a big move, so let’s think it through carefully, balancing growth potential, stability, and long-term trends, while keeping your exposure focused on one pick.
Framework for the Decision
Time Horizon: 4 years (to Feb 19, 2029) spans roughly one Bitcoin halving cycle (2028), a key driver for crypto markets.
Risk Profile: 50% of net worth suggests you’re comfortable with volatility but likely want something with a strong foundation, not a moonshot gamble.
Options: Crypto assets (e.g., BTC, ETH, SOL) or stocks (e.g., miners like Hut 8, exchanges like Coinbase, or MicroStrategy’s BTC play).
Goal: Maximize returns while minimizing the chance of a total bust over 4 years.
The Case for Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin stands out as the most compelling single allocation for a 4-year hold. Here’s why:
Track Record: BTC has consistently delivered the best risk-adjusted returns over multi-year periods. From 2017–2021 (a 4-year cycle), it went from $1,000 to ~$69,000 (68x). Even post-2021 peak to now, it’s held resilience, trading above $90K in early 2025 (per recent sentiment).
Halving Catalyst: The 2028 halving will cut supply issuance again (from 3.125 to 1.5625 BTC per block). Historically, price surges follow 12–18 months later—perfectly aligning with your 2029 horizon.
Institutional Adoption: MicroStrategy holds 439,000+ BTC (as of late 2024), ETFs have billions in inflows, and figures like Trump have pushed BTC as a reserve asset. This trend likely accelerates by 2029.
Stability: With a $2T+ market cap (as of early 2025), BTC is the least likely to vanish compared to altcoins or stocks tied to crypto profitability.
Projected Growth: Analysts (e.g., VanEck) peg BTC at $180K by mid-2026. A 20–25% CAGR from today’s ~$95K (a reasonable 2025 price) could see it hit $250K–$300K by 2029, a 2.5–3x return.
Why Not Other Crypto Assets?
Ethereum (ETH): Strong, but its 20–25% CAGR projection (~$6K–$7K by 2029 from ~$3K now) is solid yet less explosive than BTC’s halving-driven potential. It’s also more exposed to L1 competition (e.g., Solana).
Solana (SOL): High growth (e.g., $150–$500+ by 2029), but higher risk—network outages and Ethereum’s dominance could cap its upside. Less proven over 4 years.
XRP: Regulatory clarity helps, but its 15–20% CAGR (~$3–$5 by 2029) ties to Ripple’s execution, not broader market tailwinds.
Why Not Crypto Stocks?
MicroStrategy (MSTR): A BTC proxy with leverage (442K BTC at $62K average cost). It’s up 125% in 2024, but its premium to BTC holdings (~2x NAV) and debt reliance make it riskier than owning BTC directly.
Coinbase (COIN): Ties to trading volume, not just BTC price. A bear market in 2026–2027 could crush revenue, even if BTC recovers by 2029.
Hut 8 (HUT): Miners face energy costs and halving profit squeezes. BTC price gains don’t always translate to stock gains (e.g., 2021 peak vs. miner struggles).
My Pick: Bitcoin (BTC)
For a single, 4-year hold with 50% of your net worth, Bitcoin (BTC) is the play. It’s the safest bet with the strongest fundamentals:
Why: Proven resilience, halving tailwind, and unmatched adoption momentum.
How: Buy spot BTC via a reputable exchange (e.g., Coinbase, Kraken) or a spot BTC ETF (e.g., IBIT) for simplicity and custody.
Outcome: A $1M allocation at $95K today (10.53 BTC) could hit $2.5M–$3M by 2029 at $250K–$300K per BTC—a 150–200% return.
Caveats
Volatility: Expect 30–50% drawdowns. Hodl through it—4 years smooths the ride.
Regulation: A crypto-hostile shift could dent growth, though BTC’s global status mitigates this.
Opportunity Cost: Altcoins might 5x, but their bust risk is higher. BTC balances reward and survival.
BTC’s the cornerstone. It’s not sexy, but it’s the one I’d sleep easiest with for 50% of my net worth over 4 years. Thoughts on your risk appetite or a specific altcoin/stock you’re eyeing? I can refine further!

This is really hard to write but so many of you have loved and cared about Ben that I wanted to let you know. We found out today the cancer had spread throughout Bens organs and there was nothing left we could do-we had to let him go. I’ve had dogs my whole life but Ben was 1 on 1. He was smart-loving-gentle-patient-inquisitive-and welcoming to all. Always a big smile and a soft tail wag. He and I could communicate..he and I understood each other and had each others backs. He was with me more than anyone at home and traveling with me for work. Such an easy going companion. Hard day-but he will live within all of us forever. God please bless his majestic soul and thank you for putting him in my life for the last 10 years-a true blessing.
Love you Ben. 🙏🏼
