  1. This x 1,000. Nate has stolen enough money from NFL teams that other people were more deserving of. I wish him the best in life but he does not deserve an NFL paycheck.
  2. You honestly can’t make this stuff up!! Ha ha ha, good luck with that Jon
  3. I probably go about 5-6 times a year. My family is in South Florida at Easter and we take another trip to the Caribbean in Feb/March. I live about 3 hours from Gulf Shores and 4 hours from Destin. We normally take a guy’s trip to Mullet Toss and then I try to go for 3 -4 weekends during the summer. It seems to be Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day. That is a bit of a perfect year but that is what I shoot for.
  4. I agree that the Bills have guys that could be in there. It’s only something like 10% of the league that votes though so it isn’t indicative of everyone. As an example if 22% of the AFC West votes and 6% of the AFC East the guys out West are more likely to be selected because the players are more familiar with them. EDIT: 1,098 players submitted ballots this year. That’s way higher than in previous years (65% of the league).
  5. Players vote for all-star games too. It’s the same type of popularity contest. They vote for their friends and on reputation. Also, a very, very small percentage of players actually vote.
  6. Is this where I say Baltimore is a “rodent and rat infested mess?” Asking for a friend....
  7. Eh, I’m not too worried about that nonsense. It’s a popularity contest. The Bills have a few guys that are in the “real” top 100 players. They don’t have a bunch of guys in the top 30 but their talent is ascending.
  8. Ed Oliver got double and triple teamed the second he stepped foot on the Houston campus. That wasn’t new with the position switch. They had him at the zero (which is out of position). The second that he got a little dinged though, he shut it down (which anyone with a brain should do). He declared before last season even started. Oliver was a lock because his tape was that good. That’s the difference between he and Nkemdiche. Both of them entered college with a lot of hype. One of them consistently dominated and one of them flashed at times. That’s why they were different prospects entering the NFL.
  9. The biggest difference between Nkemdiche & Oliver is the production. Each were ELITE recruits but Oliver may be the best freshman to ever play college football. His sophomore year was also dominant. His last year was about protecting his draft status as he had already cemented himself as a LOCK to go in the top 10. Nkemdiche was a part of (arguably) the shadiest recruiting class ever. He was a great recruit but there was some shady business going on. If memory serves me correctly he came in with Treadwell & Tunsil. That Ole Miss program was not one built on character.
  10. Let’s not kid ourselves. He’s going on the visit because he knows it will end with a good meal.
  11. I didn’t think that this thread was about an NFL team considering Benjamin. I thought that the news was that KB worked out.
  12. No, they should be loaded. Alabama has given them such a hard time of late though. It’s tough to project LSU finishing ahead of ‘Bama.
  13. Alabama Clemson Ohio State Oklahoma
  14. Honestly, the highlight of the day for me is that I’m getting one of those lunch pails. I am going to shove so many stereotypes into that bad boy!!
  15. I sort of took the easy way out. I went Top 5 but not 1 but believe that there is a real chance that they are 1. I wish that I was bold enough to say 1 but if it blows up this season I can hide in anonymity.
  16. With what they paid Lee Smith, he’s playing (probably behind Knox)
  17. Yeah, I’m bailing on a real threat. I’ve ridden out a couple of tough ones but nothing major.
  18. That’s what I was told from a beyond reliable source.
  19. Zeke is probably my favorite Buckeye player ever. He has the entire game and is one of the few backs in the NFL that the offense can run through. This is because of his well-rounded skill set & ability to be a workhorse in terms of touches. I’d say McCaffrey is like that as is Saquon and maybe Gordon. David Johnson, Todd Gurley and Le’Veon have done that too but I’m not sure if they are there in 2019. That’s part of the reason that I’d tread carefully before paying any RB. As much as I believe Zeke is one of the best players in football, life comes at you fast as an RB. A year ago we might have said the same thing about Todd Gurley and now we don’t even know if he’s still good. It’s a risky proposition to tie up a lot of guarantees in that position.
  20. Nope, he was born to be a personal injury attorney. We all have a calling and that’s his. It’s working out quite well for him.
  21. Ha ha, I’ve said this before but one of my best friends is the plaintiff in the case. He’s an unapologetic ambulance chaser. Correction: Never mind, this is a different lawsuit. He was the plaintiff on the original one.
  22. 1,000% this I listen to Howard everyday. I consider myself a huge fan but agree. CLEARLY, Howard hates OJ (and that’s fine). It’s tough for him to talk about silencing anyone though. He has made a career on free speech.
  23. Any girl willing to get married during a football game isn’t the type of girl that I want to marry. I like a little “girlier.”
