  1. Isn’t claustrophia worse with less room around you?
  2. 48/29/6/17, east to west…
  3. We’ll have to agree to disagree on how badly the WR room needed an upgrade….
  4. It would be the same thing as drafting Murphy with our original 1st rounder and trading our original 2nd rounder for Diggs, which I think anyone would be fine with. You get the bird in the hand of having Diggs (which means we don’t have to draft a WR) already, and if Murphy is there, great; if not, you have two 2nd rounders…
  5. Looks like 6 dudes from here…
  6. FWIW, according to the value chart our 3rd rounder would be able to upgrade our higher 2nd round pick to #29 (Detroit). Both of our 2nd round picks would get us to #22 (Philadelphia). If somehow Byron Murphy slid to the latter position I would be all over that but (a) I’m biased and (b) he isn’t going to slide to 22…
  7. If Vincent had come to the city where he grew up and all his homies lived his career wouldn’t have lasted as long as it did. Vince had/has some personal demons, Jeff Fisher wasn’t 100% responsible for what happened to him…
  8. Regardless of the draft I’d expect us to pick up a 2-down veteran DT between now and camp. Between post-draft cuts and trade possibilities there should be some solid (not spectacular) options out there. Might see some movement with one of the remaining FA safeties if we don’t pick one up Day 2/4th round….
  9. Denver trying to keep that mo going of QBs named Wilson…at least this flameout will come cheap…
  10. Think one thing that works in his favor is that he only started playing DB as a Junior. IIRC he was projected to be a mid Day 3 selection last year, so coming back to up his draft stock to mid/high 2nd round was definitely the right move. I love the way the guy plays, though I’d be happy with Tampa/Rakestraw as well…
  11. A day off (finally) followed by 9 in a row at home. Time to get on a roll…
  12. Fuck crush, I’ll take a one-run win at this point…
  13. That’s great news, not just for OU…:
  14. As long as Fair Park starts making an effort to keep the post-halftime bum rush slightly more orderly than the evacuation of Saigon, they can kick that fucker off at 6AM for all I care…
  15. So neither of them was responsible for shutting off the power grid?
  16. Looking forward to it man; last year in Tuscaloosa was a blast…
  17. The Cubs game the day before we played Notre Dame up there last time was epic. Probably 10K people in burnt orange; got a March Grandiso and 3-4 rounds of the fight song from the organist, plus probably another 5-6 impromptu Texas Fight chants. The next day, on the other hand…
  18. Also plenty of time to get back to Detroit and get back home; looking forward to day before in AA, not so much night after….

    Bob Seger

    I’ve been wearing out Seger the last couple of months; Live Bullet was the first piece of music I ever owned (Xmas 8 track, 1976)…

    RIP Dickey Betts

    The solo to Blue Sky (realize it’s also Duane) is fucking impeccable…
  21. You will like our sausages…
  22. in my drunken state, this story is somehow appropriate…. Ted Williams was interviewed one time by a sportswriter who served him up what he thought was an easy question - “Ted, if you played against these pansy pitchers of today, how high would your average have been?” ”Oh, probably about .270 or so” ”Wow, that’s all? Figured you’d think it would be way higher!” ”Well shit, I’m fucking 82 years old!”
