I love Bojorquez in madden. I have him up to a 97 kick power. Accuracy be damned.

So I guess Bojorquez has won the punter competition ?

I don’t talk to anyone at DIRECTV anymore without saying “cancel service” is my reason for calling. Only way I’ve found to connect directly to an English speaking rep.

That first block is even more impressive because he was being illegally hit back. Easy call of illegal hands to the face on the cornerback.

This happens ALL THE TIME. People are told ST will be free, only to see it pop up on their bill. Just the worst company ever to deal with.

Correct. But he has to make it there first. You have to technically be cut from the active roster to do that. If another team comes along and offers him a spot on the active roster at that point I believe they would get him since active roster > practice squad.

Torn ACL or something like that. He can’t walk around. So he can’t be on the sideline in case a play comes. He wouldn’t be able to get out of the way.

I have to think they are trying to stop him from putting highlights on tape so he can make it to the practice squad.

I really like seeing those challenged vs overturned stats. 34 challenges and 5 overturns

I always wonder who green lights these absolutely idiotic shows.

You can paint this type of optimistic picture for every team in the league though. You could even do it for the Cardinals.

The patriot way. Illegal drugs, PHD’s, prostitutes and murder.

Tyree got some horrible advice coming out for the NFL. He goes back to UB and develops further he is easily looking at being drafted. Probably not highly, but rounds 5-7. Now he will be cut and probably won’t even make a practice squad.

Pretty sure he catches absolutely anything thrown his way.

Any word on when/if this will come to the Buffalo area? They need to get on that. Also, bring it up online. Absolutely no reason not to have it online if it is in the casinos anyways. I suppose the same could be said of online poker though ?

A few on that list I’m looking forward to. The most is Christian Wade, I want to see what he can do with a decent amount of carries. Next is Duke Williams with someone competent throwing him the ball. Also Tommy Sweeney, looked pretty good last week, can he keep it up?

I’m not sure I would take Zeke for free at this point, given his contract demands. He basically has the value of a free agent.

Do people on directv still pay a monthly fee for the boxes? They gave me mine for free and I just assumed every other customer got them for free as well.

For the Alliance and, I suspect, the XFL, the viewership will end up being die hard football fans. The casual NFL fan that pretty much watches their team only, or some NFL games in a season, is simply not wasting their time watching other football leagues. The XFL probably thinks (hopes) they can pul some of these fans, but they likely cannot. I watch football nearly every night during the fall. I will watch any college game and any NFL game. Come spring, I will watch any XFL game that gets televised. I suspect I am the rare fan though. Who knows, the USFL would have succeeded if Trump hadn’t blown it up. Anything is possible.

The good thing is, this league is going to last one season at least. There is no way Vince Mahon lets this thing fold mid season like the alliance did.

Omg I forgot about the food draft. Who the heck came up with that idea. A thanksgiving food draft on a sports radio show? What!!!! It is unbearable.

I believe expansion of replay is horrible for the purity of the game. It is part of the reason I enjoy High School Football, it is still a pure game and it does not take 4 hours to complete. Replay is completely out of hand. We have a replay for everything and replay reviews feel like they take 5-10 minutes per review. Multiply that by a possibility of 4 challenges per game and we are wasting 40 minutes. That being said, it isn’t going anywhere, so it must be corrected. Ive been trumpeting a plan that I feel would work pretty well. Replay is for correcting the egregious calls or non-calls. We can all agree that could have a place in the beloved game of football. It must be metered though, it cannot run rampant. First, make everything challengeable. It is practically there already, so just rip off the band aid. If you got called for a hold and felt it wasn’t a hold, challengeable. Incorrect spot? Sure that’s challengeable. Unsportsmanlike conduct that you don’t believe happened? Challengeable if you think there is evidence on tape to overturn it. Late hit out of bounds that was or wasn’t called? Challengeable. In addition to this, allow for challenges in the final two minutes. There is no more “booth review”. If the coach wants something reviewed, he throws the flag for it. Coaches still have two challenges per game, but that is it. They get two challenges of the game regardless of how those two go. If they win both, great, you still don’t get a third. Replays are also done in real time. The game is viewed and officiated in real time, why let ultra slow motion be used to detect a blade of grass on someone’s knee when he fumbled. Lastly, there is a “shot clock”. Once the referee begins viewing the tablet this clock begins. Something like 2-3 minutes feels right. If the referee doesn’t make a call within that time frame it automatically reverts to “call on the field stands.” If you can’t overturn a call conclusively in that time frame it isn’t egregious enough to be overturned anyways.

Sure am. The morning show on WGR doesn’t do that. NFL Radio on sirius XM doesn’t do that. Do other cities local radio also act like arrogant idiots?

Never understood how he has any callers to his show. If you don’t agree precisely with his opinion he will berate you until he is blue in the face.

Also, Denver and Buffalo fans both have Cleveland to thank for taking Ward 4th overall. Without that the Broncos don’t get Chubb and Buffalo pays far more to trade up and draft Allen.
