That's pretty cool. What happened to the bee shortage?! You've got a few million?!

Each hive is 50-100k. You get a bunch of hives together and you got a lot of bees. But my dad got out of that a decade ago.

Honeybees were never really in threat. There's more honeybees today than ever iirc. Native bees and pollinators are plummeting though. That's what "Save The Bees" is about. There's hundreds to thousands of native bee species and population number have been dropping nationwide.

Edit: A lot of people dont realize that honeybees are not native to the New World.

Giants aren't going to pick a QB after giving Daniel Jones all that money.

Broncos had a bigger pill to swallow and did so. Would cost $17 mil to outright him vs $35 mil to keep him. They converted most of his guaranteed money into a signing bonus last September.

I don't know seems to me a wasted #1 pick when you have issues on OL and no RB and Defensive needs and so on....

They are, they just don't pollinate a lot of native plant species. We have native plants that coevolved with specific insects for pollination and honeybees don't or sometimes physically cannot pollinate those species.

Honeybees are great for domestic vegetable and fruit flowers though.

Seems they're actually trying to get rid of non-native plants in the area.

I don’t know if McCarthy is worth resetting the franchise, but waiting until you have everything rebuilt before you target your franchise QB isn’t sound thinking either imo. If they’ve lost faith in Jones, it’s better to boot and pay the bill and move forward than lose and pay for a full contract. I could see them going for a Nix or Penix in the second and get a placesetter type in FA.

BREAKING: No. 1 transfer wide receiver commits to Auburn

Does brother Hugh know something we don't know? The top receiver out of HS and now this guy. Either they have some plan they aren't sharing or these guys aren't watching too much Peyton Thorne film.

Imagine being Auburn...

"Ok...we'll hire...y'know screw it...let's get the ONE GUY that regularly upsets Saban! Mwahaha! Who cares about the rest, we'll be beating Bama every other year for the next couple decades! Give Hugh all he wants!!"

:Saban:
