  1. Jim Rome has one of the most punchable faces in all of sports media. Right up there with Portnoy and Skip Bayless.
  2. That's the thing. They told you the plan. That's been the plan all along. If you don't see that then it's more of a case of you choosing not to. And this isn't meant to be negative at you, my friend. Be it them feeling ok at MLB, believing in Gabe, believing in Brown and wanting to extend Oliver...there are a lot of people here choosing not to believe what Beane is flat out saying over and over.
  3. They have flat out said... repeatedly....Milano will stay in his spot. They have flat out said.... repeatedly....that Dodson, Klein, Bernard and Spector will compete for the MLB spot. They have been a bit more ambiguous about Dorian Williams. Maybe this will help. The 6 Stages of Grief: Shock: Finding out Edmunds left for the huge payday Denial. ..."Nah, they won't roll with what they have on the roster. They will draft one high" Anger. ..."Why didn't they draft one high?!?!?" Bargaining. ... You are here Depression. ... "Oh no, we suck again" Acceptance and hope. ..."Welp, guess we have what we have...maybe one of these guys won't be too bad"
  4. Great work, Gunner. It did look to be a particularly rough year for the Mock Draft community. Expecting next year to be a bit clearer. We're on to the 2024 NFL Draft...the New England Patriots are on the clock.
  5. Tre White was campaigning for one a few years back.
  6. I believe the Cleveland Browns already own that look.
  7. This is the time of year most fanbases have some optimism. Even Arizona and Las Vegas have some hope.
  8. Will be really impressive considering he's good for about 12 games a season the last couple of years.
  9. If it's not in the shape of a chicken wing I don't want it.
  10. Russell Bodine and Marshall Newhouse were traded by Beane in separate transactions for late round picks 2 drafts out. There's a sucker born every minute...and Beane is good at finding that dude.
  11. Some people on this Earth are just flat out genetic freaks of nature. Von Miller seems like one of those guys. He's truly a rare breed. Top 1% physically. I wouldn't bet against him being physically ready very early in the season...if not by week 1 or 2. Guys like this...age is just experience and not an indication of decline. Guys that do next level training and prep work last longer. Guys like Brady, Adrian Peterson, even Frank Gore...they are just built different and have a completely different mindset. Last year we saw an "average" timetable for healing with Tre White. Even though they won't flat out admit it...his biggest hurdle in the end was his own mindset and that had him behind on his return...and playing tentatively when he did come back. That's not Von. Our biggest problem with Miller may very well be limiting him from going "full Von" too early. He's going to do the opposite of Tre and push hard both mentally and physically.
  12. Had a pretty good record in combat sports. Was always able to pull off the "dumb bad guy" henchmen role. Pretty sure he didn't have to do much "acting" there lol.
  13. Wait, not everyone has 5 or 6 Josh Allen jerseys already? 1. Blue 2. Red 3. White 4. Throwback Wyoming 5. Formal Event Jersey (For fancy events, like going out for wings) 6. High School I thought this was the basic setup?
  14. Perhaps he has a sibling that has some legal issues. I hear that's a qualifier as well.
  15. Pretty close to the truth actually. Only Randall "Tex" Cobb was a whole lot more than that.. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randall_"Tex"_Cobb
  16. Donald Driver and Jordy Nelson are on the way.
  17. Ah, a fresh way to work in a "trade Oliver" chant. Awesome work.
  18. I would ask, but he blocked me after sending me a DM saying he's going to kick my arse because I dared question his accuracy. Methinks the coach has a bit of "Ye Olde Roid Rage".
  19. I think the teams that will get the hype this year as the "best AFC team...can't miss....already won the Super Bowl in week 4" team in the media is going to be the Bengals. Watch for them to be the "trendy" pick. Also, if the Jets start out something like 2 or 3 and O..major media hype. I also think Miami is going to get a lot of play always with the caveat of "if Tua stays healthy...watch out". Many media people picked Buffalo last year and were wrong. Doubt many double down. And that's the way I like it.😏
  20. The odd thing about him that I remember...I only watched one of his games with the Seahawks. He had something like 5 balls batted down at the line of scrimmage that game and the announcers were completely baffled.
  21. Re: The sign Carr route. They easily could have doubled down with QB in the 1st next year and move on from Wilson next year with that route. Now it becomes stickier should Rodgers not rebound or decide that he's done after this year. They likely won't have a 1st. They will be stuck with that talented young roster and... something else that is likely short term. At least Carr bides them time. Also, agree that Carr isn't going to lead a team past all of the top 3 QBs...but he may not have to. One will get knocked off by one of the other two most likely. After that...anything can happen. The bad part is if rumors are correct and it was the owner that pushed for Rodgers while Coach/GM wanted Carr and Rodgers fails...coach and GM won't possibly be around to see that next QB. They pushed all in on this year...and I don't think it was the right move at all. Time will tell.
  22. So, for the Chiefs they just used an actual picture of Jackson Mahomes?
  23. Also found this: Currently, Jim Mora does game analysis for Saints games that either air on NBC or ESPN for WDSU in New Orleans
  24. Found this blurb: At 7 ft 0 in, Richard Sligh is the tallest player in professional American football history. The next tallest are Matt O'Donnell at 6 ft 11 in, Morris Stroud at 6 ft 10 in, and Dan Skipper at 6 ft 10 in. Sligh played 1 season in 1967 as a 10th round pick. O'Donnell never made an active roster, however was in camp twice for the Bengals. Stroud was a TE for the Chiefs. Played 5ish years and was on their Super Bowl team back in the Len Dawson era. Skipper is an OL and has bounced around for 6 squads most recently last year for the Detroit Lions.
  25. Anything that might take targets away from Wilson is welcome. I seriously think they have downgraded at the receiver position to appease Rodgers. If they plug Carr into what they had last year I think they would have been better off and kept some premium draft capital. And I'm no Carr fan.
