May Day 10

Im seeing this 'fake slide' thing coming from spiteful Miami and Kansas City, but it didnt even cross my mind. Watching the replay it doesnt look like the beginning of a slide at all. It looks like a sudden change in direction on a somewhat slippery field to hit a hole.

Wow. We had shovels to use. We didnt use them. We did a lot of stomping and marsh lynching through.. My buddy ended up falling, then rolling in the snow to 3 rows below and it was funny. Leaving, I slipped on the steps and somehow caught myself . That would have been a rough one.

It was crazy. We made sure we got in early to clear out and we were waist high of snow in our seats. Had to create tunnels to clear out our area. Looking around we thought no way they could fit in all the people. There was a void underneath the bleacher seats. We were able to pack a lot of snow below the row/bench in front of us. It was also a pretty fluffy snow (which is why we didnt see 1,000,000 snow balls) so the snow packed down once everyone walked and stomped on it. There were shovels everywhere too for people to dig if they needed. I was pretty much standing on/in snow the entire game.

Garbage time champions

Shameful performance by Dallas

Dak Prescott. Another phony exposed

Tyreek hill is the entire team

Miami is already looking for the bus

Joe Flacco looks like Joe Flacco again

Espn does live content very well

I would 100% still go Monday. Actually, probably do more of the tailgate scene

Moving it to Monday seems like a pretty good solution.

I was once an 'its all Belichick and the Patriots' 'system' they have. These days, I think it is almost equal Belichick/Brady. Neither would have amounted to anywhere near their historical status without the other (and I am convinced nobody would remember Tom Brady). It was a perfect storm of a coach/staff who was ahead of the curve and would find every single margin to take advantage of for winning. You had a QB who wasnt all that gifted, but was willing to give his entire being to being the greatest and winning.

Interesting pick. Kraft really going all in on Mayo. By all accounts he is a brilliant man, but being CEO of an NFL football program is a unique and difficult gig.

You wonder what the future is, but I don't think it's great for WGR55 as we know it (and probably WBEN as well). It has amazed me for a number of years that they would retain such high salaries (Im sure) of Schopp and the Bulldog and people like that, when you can get closer to entry-level people and pay them a fraction of the amount to talk sports. Honestly, the younger guys on the station have always been fine in my opinion, and always hungrier and put more effort into consuming and researching sports.

Its pretty nice looking. Open-concourses are pretty standard now. My only complaint is that one really big lounge area with the copious number of couches not even facing the field. Go in and watch the game, people. I wish we had such a walkthrough.

Its kind of sad that these careers are ending. Pages are turning. Anyways, things for Alabama are getting and going to get a lot more difficult. Already mentioned NIL and transfer portal. The super-conferences and a lot more competition, even the expanded playoff will make it tough. I think we are going to have much more parity in the top 10-20 teams year to year like never before.

His rookie season. Because he wasn't pooping his pants and turning the ball over, he was on the same trajectory as Tom Brady. Also, it is natural for NE fans to assume they will someday control the Division for decades and see perpetual Superbowl berths for a generation. Heck, us Bills fans did/do once we got a franchise QB. 4 Years is an amazing run. Most Divisions turn over every season to 2 or 3 at the top. The additional 1st place schedule game in the NFC makes it even more difficult. I remember as a Bills fan in the mid-90s, it felt like the Chargers, Steelers, etc were just keeping the Bills' seat warn until we reassumed the top of the AFC again.

No Bills opponents

I guess picks and cap. They have to build the entire thing, which can be faster than people think as long as the cap is clear. The Division is tough too. My favorite job if I were a coach is the Bears. Also, I think Vrabel's abilities are getting inflated right now. He got fat on a freak superlative generational RB and his eliminated team tried hard in a couple games. Awful division most of his tenure as well. High floor, low ceiling type of coach. I would be much more worried about the offensive visionary type.

If I'm Vrabel, I'm taking a better opportunity with a smaller shadow to work in Mac Jones went a couple games without an interception, and their fans and media were calling him brady and planning 6 more parades

If I were Vrabel, I would stay far from New England. Expectations are sky high there, even at the beginning of a rebuild. He is following in the shoes of arguably the greatest of all-time. There are going to be his choice of suitors which would be better circumstances.

I wonder if they like Vrabel. He has done a terrific job in Seattle, really transformed the organization.

I dont know what New England is doing. I get Belichick earned the respect not to be turfed on black monday... but what the heck is going on? Now the 'solution' might be to bring McDaniels back?

Sounds like Daboll is a bit of a problem. Closer to Rex Ryan than Bill Belichick
