Miyagi-Do Karate

I just got some new pro viX’s for Christmas I am going to try out this summer. I have used a few here and there with great results, but never have really sprung for a dozen before. Excited to use them. (I usually would play with refurbished Calloway’s, which I have found to be hit and miss)… though I am a mid-high handicapper, so it is probably my own poor play more than any ball.

I am actually not a big John Williams fan (just because a lot of his music blends together). But this is one of his best, and some of the slower aspects of the main theme are pretty beautiful.

Down year from Gabe, for sure. But you all forget some of the insanely difficult and huge catches he made this past year too. As I recall, he made some game-saving 3rd and 20 diving caches, and some really acrobatic and big play ones too (eg, both TDs in the Steelers game). Also, the loss of a true slot this year with the Crowder injury really shouldn’t be held against Gabe. There are things he can improve on, but he is a hard worker and has shown enough flashes to be our #2.

I am thinking he gets like $12m or $13m per year, and not going to get a lot of years on it (like 2-4 years). Consider too the market is going to be absolutely flooded with free agent running backs this year.

Whoever gets him will get him at a pretty bargain deal. No one is paying for RBs anymore.

Did DTV try to keep you at all, and offer anything comparable?

Full disclosure— I think with the exception of Dion Waiters, I thought every former Syracuse underclassman should have stayed! So I am a little biased. Good point Re his FT shooting and touch. I suspect JB doesn’t want him taking a bunch of 15-footers.

really terrific game by him, including even passing and on D. I actually think today is a pretty good indicator of his potential, as it was one of the few times he wasn’t regularly doubled. He is not going to get double teamed in the pros. I still think though he could really benefit from staying and developing an outside shot, and maybe adding more beef to his frame.

Given the weather too, this was the obvious gameplan. Look at what the bengals did— just very simple quick stuff and then guys made defenders miss with a move in the snow. I don’t get it, because the first few games of the year, we were all over the quick stuff. And then we added a Hines who is perfect for it also.

I may wait on canceling DTV. I am hoping that YouTube has some deal with new subscribers involving Sunday ticket. Gonna wait and see.

They gotta build a dome at Pebble Beach.

You can both draft great players and “trust the process”— ie, draft those great players that are good guys that buy into the culture and don’t have a host of baggage or off field issues. I like how this team won’t go near the Tyreek Hills, Kareem Hunts, Frank Clark’s, and Joe Mixons of the world. I am not cheering for guys that beat their pregnant girlfriends. And those are the same guys that when they aren’t winning, they are causing locker room problems.

“terrible golfer” is harsh and not accurate. He is a great golfer. Yeah, he is not a pro and hitting par or under on a professional course. But I am betting he is a super low handicap based on what I have seen. He wouldn’t even be allowed to play at these pro ams if he wasn’t a single handicapper. To each his own on golf. But I can say that it is an extraordinarily difficult sport, and that’s why these pro athletes love it. It is nearly impossible to truly master— always working to get better.

Ruh roh. Good luck paying Burrow, chase, and Higgens. that’s why you need to hit on a WR early in the draft and then let them walk. FA prices on WR’s are too high.

As someone who plays a lot of golf and gets a fair amount of elbow issues, golf is usually a lot harder on that lead left elbow. So, I approve.

So, how was this?! I assume the Washington Generals won? 😃

amazingly, the chiefs even looked really good with Henne back there.

He was back at practice Wednesday. Not sure what is going on.

Go watch highlights of Quintin Morris’s college games. He is better than anyone else we can get in the draft. Just gotta use him more!

Wishing you well, Tom! Will always remember you for this great play!

You interviewing for QB coach?

Agree. Hurts that UNC and UVA losses were basically decided by charge calls too. That said, that was a charge by Edwards. any chance Edwards comes back? He can legit improve his draft stock if he does? Needs to develop an outside shot.

Wish they could have pulled that out. Played UVA as well as they ever had on both sides of the ball. Just a bad charge on Edwards and then UVA hits an absurd contested shot over Hima, and that’s the game.

Poor guy. Makes me thankful that Josh dodged a major bullet.

Benny Williams looks like he is done at Syracuse.
