  1. Because things like signing bonuses and other up front guaranteed money come directly from the owners pockets since they are paid up front and many of the owners either don't have that type of money to spend or don't want to spend it.
  2. And again, what is said in the witness statement and whether that word is used has no relevance as to if it is collusion. Collusion is based on an action, not a word being used or not being used by witnesses. Oh, so you are claiming the owners went to the NFLPA and told them they were working together to ensure we are going to keep prices down? Of course they didn't. So yeah, it was in secret between the parties involved. And that perfectly fits the description of what collusion in.
  3. Honestly can't believe anyone pays for this when there are so many options out there that don't cost a penny.
  4. A "magical weekend"? Are you hooking up with him or something? 🤣🤣
  5. I can definitely see why he wanted to get her pregnant.
  6. I said he will likely hit double digit TDs once more, but that's it.
  7. These women with their money grabs because they see other people getting paid are disgusting and there should be criminal penalties for it. They should be put in jail if it's found they are filing false claims. Only way it's going to stop, when there are real consequences for it.
  8. Not understanding how sports work is a problem for most people. Just because you improved, doesn't mean that you are going to hit the same numbers every year. Mookie Betts, one of the best baseball players in the last decade, hit .346 in 2018 for the Red Sox and led the league in batting average. He's never come close to that again before or since. It was a career outlier. Calvin Johnson caught 122 balls and had 1964 yards receiving in 2012. Both led the NFL. Never approached those numbers before or after. Virtually every good athlete has them. Seasons where every thing comes together and you get a magical statistical season. I am willing to bet Cook's will be last year with his 18 TDs. I will bet he probably only hits double digits for TDs again no more than once in his career.
  9. How was it not Tasker, the best special teams player in the history of the NFL?
  10. That's a really poor quality one... I've bought several on DH Gate that are indistinguishable from the real thing, right down to the NFL logo on the chest plate by the neck and the jersey material.
  11. It's still there but more low profile. Up until a few years ago every mayor in Niagara Falls had ties to them.
  12. Haha, I thought this was the actual Mafia when I read it 🤣🤣 I'm like...well we are still one of the only places left that still has active families, especially in Niagara Falls 🤣
  13. Does it really matter? It's the Dolphins, Josh is going to smoke them no matter who is playing for them. It's not like the Steelers haven't gotten blown out by the Bills regularly the last few years.
  14. I think it gives them more flexibility to not go to a 6th lineman so often and use more jumbo packages which can have him as a receiving option to make it harder for defenses to defend.
  15. Mayhem Maybin... His rap song somehow was more terrible than his on field play 🤣 "Nightmare... Wes Craven... Quarterback... Craving..."
  16. Kinda silly when he has a win percentage of over .700
  17. Trevor Lawrence and it's not close.
  18. It never will be. It has zero and I mean ZERO chance to ever compete with the NFL again. No sport does. 75+ of the top 100 TV shows every year are NFL games. A random week 10 NFL game draws more viewers than most World Series Games, NHL Stanley Cup Finals Games, NBA Championship Games and one off events like the Grammy's or Golden Globes.
  19. But yet they did anyway, regardless of your opinion on whether they needed to or not.
  20. They don't need to be in the witness statements. There are a lot of people who have no idea what those words even mean. But just for the purpose of this discussion, I will post the definition of Collusion: col·lu·sion /kəˈlo͞oZH(ə)n/ noun: collusion secret or illegal cooperation or conspiracy, especially in order to cheat or deceive others. "the NFL Owners were working in collusion with one another to prevent higher contracts among players" So whether the witnesses knew when they told the reporters that NFL owners working together to prevent players from having higher contracts, especially QBs, after the Watson deal is collusion, that's the literal definition of the word. If someone says they witnessed someone in a courtroom speak under oath, then told them what they said on the stand was a lie, it doesn't make it not be perjury just because the person didn't use that word when they told the reporter what happened or didn't know what the word meant. The actions define what happened and whether it was collusion, NOT the words being told to reporters by witnesses.
  21. I'm being fully honest. I also walk between 17-20K steps a day on my walking pad while working at my stand up desk.
  22. Allen got his guaranteed money after the salary cap went up by a huge amount compared to when Watson got his. The salary cap is 279 million versus 208 in 2022. Effectively Watson got 1.1 times the amount of the Salary Cap at the time in guaranteed money while Allen got 0.89 times the salary cap. So while yes, Allen got $20 million more than Watson in guaranteed money, it is based on a much larger pool of money available
  23. I do multiple sets of full hill sprints with a 60lb vest and 40lb resistance pants as well as weighted sled pulls regularly...in addition to my regular strength training
  24. I am willing to bet coverage of the NFL Draft had higher ratings than any NHL game this year, and likely far higher ratings.
