  1. Who's feeling sorry for them? We're laughing at them.
  2. I don't think anyone is truly "bothered" -- just something to comment on during the offseason. There's a reason sites like "Uni Watch" exist!
  3. The "ATL" is such a hip-hop move...which I guess shouldn't be surprising, but it rankles those of us who are somewhat traditional when it comes to NFL uniforms. I like the helmets with the chrome facemask, and the all-white or all-black are fine...the red-to-black looks atrocious.
  4. Players see this. They see that Buffalo takes care of the players -- great conditioning coach, great facilities. Jalen Ramsey can go eat a dick.
  5. Side stripes down the jersey is the worst thing to ever happen to NFL uniforms. They never match up with the pants and as you noted, even the stripes themselves were mismatched. No clue what the designers were thinking. And don’t get me started on the 14 different stripes down the center of the helmet.
  6. I read a funny comment somewhere: ”Just put Hotlanta on the front and be done with it.” Those uniforms are really bad.
  7. I was there. Raiders had something to prove that day but then fell apart in crunch time. I don’t remember being that cold but by then I was a pro at layering.
  8. Dude, just call it what it is...some guy’s fantasy football predictions. Did this guy put out similar crap last year? I’d love to see how it compared to what actually happened.
  9. What a waste of time, creating something like this. Good lord.
  10. I'm pretty sure Beane is in his early 40s.
  11. I don't think I've ever heard anyone say that before. Agreed. The best they've looked in decades. Top 5 in the NFL.
  12. 20M at this point is still some nice cash to play with...gives Beane tons of flexibility.
  13. I don't dislike Booger that much; he used to be good on SiriusXM but I think ESPN is encouraging him to be more of a clown. At the end of the day he's harmless. Tessatore, however, is perhaps the worst play-by-play guy I've ever heard. He has Gus Johnson enthusiasm at the most inopportune moments, and has no "feel" for the game whatsoever. I have told the story of how at the end of the 4th quarter of the Bills/Texans playoff game he exclaimed, breathlessly, that "NEVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE NFL HAS A PLAYOFF GAME GONE TO OVERTIME TIED AT 19!!!!!" The dude has no freaking clue and needs to go back to announcing college swimming or something like that.
  14. Well, this post proves that EVERYBODY has a fan.
  15. Yeah, it's better to have just a little bit of overconfidence.
  16. All things considered Erik Flowers may have been the worst draft pick by the franchise, ever. This was a pick made by a one-foot-out-the-door John Butler (RIP) and may really have been an F-U to Ralph. Just a horrid pick. All of the other 1st round busts were guys you could at least imagine a legitimate reason for drafting.
  17. I'll tell you what's annoying....
  18. Umm, the story isn't "manufactured" at all...it happened. Have you been on Twitter? Nobody forces you to click "like" on a tweet -- it's a conscious decision. Gilmore should know better. Now, in the big scheme of things I don't know if this motivates a guy like Diggs or not -- but it was a slight, no matter how you look at it.
  19. As Beane said earlier this week, WR is one of the biggest "bust" positions in the NFL. You just can't predict how well these guys will function in an NFL offense after playing in such dumbed-down college offenses. I don't know (or care) which WR in the draft will be good/great. I do know that Diggs is a proven commodity in his prime and I gladly trade our #22 pick and a couple of day 3 selections for him.
  20. Ugh...I thought he was recovering? RIP Held the longest FG record for a LOOOOOONG time.
  21. Without the contracts for Gaines, McKenzie, and Daryl Williams, who are all probably top-51 guys -- the current #51 contract is 721K. So maybe about 20M?
