  1. OP makes some good points. No doubt a crucial first down was lost due to Ivory's glorious mane. But Ray Ray muffed a punt because he wasn't able to concentrate due to his well-maintained coiffure? That's really splitting hairs. On the contrary, his pre-game attention to tonsorial resplendence should have allowed him to concentrate fully on his in-game punt catching responsibilities. Now if you want to argue that residual hair product on his hands impacted his ability to secure the catch I'm willing to consider that aspect.
  2. Any of you anti-dreadites ever hear of a dude named Samson? /dread? No, /thread
  3. Disagree. To be a professional should require a level of competence that Peterman hasn't shown.
  4. I don't disagree with either statement, but AJ may have lasted a bit longer then Peterman. Either way, I think Josh would've started today. In hindsight, bringing in Bridgewater might have been the better play. Water under the bridge, I'm less interested in what might have been than I am about what might be. Unfortunately it's easier to be negative than positive about whats to come right now.
  5. Isn't this a results-oriented league? The results haven't been there consistently and repeatedly. I can't stand the "Fire xyz" threads that follow every loss but he has to go. I just hope the Allen injury doesn't give him a roster sport for another week.
  6. Y'all oughta just keep running straight to the unemployment line.
  7. Turned it on late. Jets had 7 FG's, so they scored 10 times.
  8. This was a one hit wonder for me: ....but this evening I came across this, so maybe a two hit wonder:
  9. A lot of game to go so no guarantees but they just mentioned this on the broadcast. The Brew Crew is inching closer to a 12 game win streak and a free burger promotion that dates back to the 1940's: https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2018/10/11/thanks-year-old-prediction-brewers-win-friday-means-free-burgers-all-wisconsin/?utm_term=.d70c9763d38b
  10. If I heard the announcers correctly, Woodruff's HR against Kershaw was the first HR by a lefty swinging pitcher against a left handed pitcher in the post season - EVER. And as my son pointed it was hit by a relief pitcher.
  11. Verducci in the booth is like nails on the chalkboard to me.
  12. Same deal except it was a Betta for us. I worked with a guy whose dog was getting close to the end so in preparation he started digging the hole in his backyard....with his dog watching. I always thought that was messed up.
  13. You my friend are a true visionary. Since they aren't playing until 4 hours later, how do you see this going down? Arrest? Practice injury? Slapped by beaver tail? Or maybe deported by ICE in a case of mistaken identity?
  14. You said Eli wasn't elite. I agree. Bart's point was that non-elite QB's getting paid as elite QB's makes it tougher to surround that QB with talent and the QB better be able overcome that (see Aaron Rodgers). I thought he made a good point.
  15. A few months ago I was listening to Bart Scott assert that when the Giants paid Eli everything changed. Too much money tied up in a guy that couldn't make up for the guys that would inevitably have to leave because they couldn't get paid.
  16. OP guidelines didn't preclude college QB's, so with an acknowledgement to SkyTroller: Dickey Hurts
  17. What they both have in common is a bad OL. Where that differs is the Giants tried to fix theirs with the high priced Solder and the 34th pick in the draft.
  18. Might be pressing my luck here so I'll try to be discreet: "Previously mentioned Packers QB" Smoker
  19. As a Mets fan, I concur on all counts. As enjoyable as last night was (in a highly vindictive, douchey and jealous way) I'd rather see the nail-biter game. Yanks/Sawx have had some great ones.
