i'm still reeling from the fake news that i asked for.

 

Agreed. They took it to a deep and hurtful place. We wanted gentle fake news, like a buy one get one hotdog special at home games. This was a completely unnecessary escalation.

Damn... that excuse was to avoid moderator trouble. I wanted to come across this aggressive. I've overplayed my hand. 

 

 

And the nervous joking and comradery will settle into nice hatred by the end of this week when we're all at our wits' end with nothing but geriatric Frank Gore to show for it. 

So you think I should add Prozac to my pharmacy order? 

Good idea!?

This is believable for every reason except who tweeted it. 

 

Yep.  Trying to find the beat reporter he is likely parroting.  there it is....  He is taking Cimini report of Paradis being in NY, and spinning it into close to a deal baring snags (His out)

Bob is right more than he is wrong.

 

That sucks.

 

Meh, I was on the fence with Paradis. 

 

I think i'd rather have Sullivan or Morse and get a shot at one of the other big time OL's.

No surprise here...

 

Honest question though... This time last year was the Kirk Cousins festival... Is Foles really that much less of an option, all things considered?

I think Cousins is the better quarterback but it's not as big as a gap as some may think.   Cousins looks absolutely great on paper, but he doesn't win games.  Foles does.

This is my thoughts... It think that we too often look past the biggest question with QB's- does he win? Foles checks that box (sometimes) and I am excited to see what his future looks like... I just wish it wasn't with the Jags.

Bob has zero sources. He's something beyond a fraud.

 

Here's his thought process:

  1. Paradis is in NY (because that's where Vaynerchuk's agency is located)...
  2. His agent, Gary Vaynerchuk is a very outspoken NYJ fan (has talked about wanting to be the owner one day)
  3. Jets need a C and have been connected to Paradis for that reason
     

Ergo, Paradis to NYJ.

 

Might happen, might not but all the dude does is connect dots, throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks...

Albright has been remarkably reliable and on point. Although he is a little of a...well:

Since I started paying attention to him again this time of year I have noticed something. Here lately he has been talking all about how he wants to grow, and how he has always been unfairly judged and given a bad reputation but now he wants to get past all that as he strives to mature... Coincidentally, he also is looking for a new career path towards larger and better markets... Hm... Can't imagine why these two things would be happening at the same time.

What exactly is the appeal for players to go to the Redskins? Every year they sign big names, and every year they're the same ***** organization... I would think the difference in a million dollars might be worth not being stuck in the dysfunction.

Gabriel used to be GM or head scout for the Bears, right? Wonder if he still has sources within the organization.
