  1. What is McDermott rated as a coach?
  2. What happens to a strike when there is no real impact to consumers? Are they willing to strike for a year (or two) waiting for the public to notice diminishing content? Remember, Covid also shut down all productions and no one really cared, and that is with everyone stuck at home.
  3. I used to play a lot, but now I suck. 70s then to 90s now. Can occasionally hit a 300yd+ drive still. Usually out of bounds. Embarrassing when I'm waiting for the group in front to get out of range, then hit a grass burner to the women's tees.
  4. The rest of world relied on Hollywood to make content in the past... Now Americans will rely on the rest of the world to make content. The success of shows like "Squid Game" should scare these strikers. There are viable studios all over the world now. How long will it take for the Billionaire studio producers to realize they don't need to listen to the Union? They can just take their money overseas. Netflix already does... Maybe that's why we were getting "Woke" movies. They wanted the public to hate Hollywood so the move overseas to cheaper productions would go smoother.
  5. They're going to stick Biden back in his basement. This time, He will get 150million votes. The last election was the trial run...
  6. AI will save entertainment. It will no longer take 200mil dollars to make a movie. The average fan will be able to make shows that the average fan wants to watch.
  7. The average student loan debt is $28k. (bachelors) and $40k overall. The average car loan is $26k (used) and $40k (new). Looks pretty close... So why are students loans considered a national crisis that will ruin a person's life through crushing debt that they can never hope to repay, ... ...but a car loan can be paid off in 4 to 6 years, with new loans being taken again and again every decade?
  8. Runningbacks are becoming ever more worthless. Why is Hines getting $6mil/yr?
  9. I heard a conspiracy theory that Far-Right Christian Extremists spent $100 million buying up tickets to this movie. That's why they don't need A/C or dimmed lights because no one is actually sitting in the theater. Also, Isn't it suspicious that there are two threads on this movie!? Which one is the real one?
  10. David Nelson hugged his cheerleader girlfriend during a Cowboys game.
  11. 10mil/yr when he signs the tag. Still a 3mil/yr raise from last year. Josh Jacobs also didn't get a deal done in time.
  12. Barkley's demand was not unreasonable. He wanted the same salary as Christian McCaffrey, with Kamara 15mil/yr ballpark behind him. The Giants offered top 5 RB Money. The same as Henry, Cook, and Chubb. New contracts for runningbacks don't set the market?
  13. I'm reading the article cited in this thread. Some teams travel better than others. The player mentioned that some seats turn into beds, while most just recline a few inches. Yes, they are probably still better than the seats we riff-raff are forced to endure. Human nature still applies. Culture also means how a player is treated. If an owner treats the players like VIP's rather than employees, It can sway Free Agents to sign and those under contract to give home-team discounts.
  14. Imagine a team chartering a space plane from Elon Musk, then getting to London (or Tokyo) in an hour while their opponent takes 12 hrs. Also some teams have private chefs that provide specific meals for every player.
  15. If a team provides a perk for all players, then it's not counted against the salary cap. I'm surprised this hasn't been exploited by the richer team owners. I wonder if there is a handshake agreement among the clubs to not embarrass the cheaper owners. Paying for first class seats, especially for the big fellas, on road trips, should be an obvious perk, but that article says they still make players sit in economy.
  16. How do team perks affect the salary Cap? I tried to look it up and couldn't find anything. For example: If a team provides free food, trainers, gyms, limo service, private jets, massage therapists, babysitters.... Will the costs count against the team's salary cap? If it doesn't, Why don't teams provide these perks to help players perform better? or attract Free Agents? I remember Dez Bryant getting assigned a chaperone by Dallas, was that charged to his salary?
  17. Now I want a dome.
  18. That's offensive to sunburned fat people. We can't even get every Dentist to recommend a single brand of toothpaste. Reddit told me that Washington was a slave owner.
  19. Another player who said he wanted to play for a contender, then signed for the paycheck.
  20. OJ Simpson, Earl Campbell, Jim Brown, Marshal Faulk, and Bo Jackson were selfish. Marshawn Lynch proved that he would have probably ended his career in jail or suspended if he had stayed in Buffalo. The only process guy I can see that would fit this team with Josh Allen is Barry Sanders. Thurman and Freddie works too, but Barry was better than both. play them in a blizzard.
  21. 2nd round pick worth 510points x 3 is 1530 points. The 6 overall is 1600, which is pretty close. Also, the chart is more like a guideline, and not a rule. It hasn't been strictly followed for at least a decade. Costner actually screwed his team with all the moves. He traded three 2nd rounders for a RB and punt returner.
  22. The point of the movie was that Costner was ignoring the trade value chart and "going rogue".
